Toy Story 3 Meets Inception Trailer

Naturally the two biggest movies of the show need to be combined in one trailer.

Somehow Michael Caine doesn't seem out of place as a pink bear and the stuffing coming out of the elephant in slow motion is pretty cool.

There's enough crazy "Inception" theories out that I'm sure one of them involves "Toy Story 3."

Like maybe "Inception" isn't a real movie and it's just a dream within Woody's mind that we're all trying to steal before Woody wakes up to reveal that he's not a toy but actually Christopher Nolan.

I totally just blew some hipster's mind.

Oh Sheila

"Oh Sheila" by Ready for the World is another one of those great 80s songs you hear on the radio and can't help sing along to.  I may or may not have looked foolish when it came on in my car recently.

The 80s were a great time for generic R&B groups like Ready for the World.  Fortunately the "Oh Sheila" video is not as painful to watch as the "Rock Steady" video.

The members of Ready for the World actually look how you might think they do.  Well only if you imagined that they all rocked the 80s jheri-curl hard, like it was never gonna go out of style.



They all look like Eriq La Salle and his dripping jheri curl in "Coming to America," which was before  he started karate punching people in the "ER" hospital.

He was probably still angry about someone cutting off his sweet 80s jheri curl.

    

           Oh, oh Jheri Curl                                Touch my hair and I'll  

                                                                           karate punch you

Getting past the hair (which is hard to do), Ready for the World pulls out some sychronized dance moves that kind of make them look like a homeless Jackson 5.  

They're really trying to hide the band member in the yellow bandana that's a wanna be Prince.

He must have just missed the cut to be in the Revolution and this was his fall back band.   Maybe he still plays basketball with Prince though.

The production value of the video seems to indicate that a high school production class cut it, and they certainly love the triple freeze frame effect.  The only thing really missing is a star wipe.

All in all, I think this music video only makes me like the song more because I'll laugh when I think about the actual group and their jheri curls.

Surviving Bad Theater and Peep Show

There's not much worse than being stuck at a boring play.  Not all theater is bad but when it is, it's brutal.

You can't help think about the better things you could be doing with your time instead of being in the theater.

The UK comedy "Peep Show" humorously illustrates this unfortunate experience and how to deal with it in this theater scene.   

I especially like the line, "If this was on television, nobody would be watching." Because it's so true.  Next time I'm at a bad play, I'm pretending it's "Bad Boys."

Does Sookie Stackhouse Own a Pair of Pants?

I'm certainly not complaining that True Blood's Sookie Stackhouse portrayed by Anna Paquin always seems to be wearing short shorts of some kind, but it's kind of weird that she doesn't own jeans or any type of pants.

I don't think she even wore pants until two episodes ago at the werewolf bar and those weren't even her pants.  She borrowed them.

It can't always be so hot in Bon Temp that Sookie never needs to wear pants.  Besides she must get killed by mosquitoes because that place is like a swamp.

There has to be some reason for her aversion to pants.  Here's what I've come up with:

1.  Bill vampire hypnotized Sookie into never wearing pants.

Sookie under Bill's no pants spell

2.  Sookie can't hear people's thoughts if she has pants on.  Some people just work better without pants on .

3.  It's Tara's fault.  Let's be honest it's always her fault some how.

Girl you don't need no pants.

4.  Sookie doesn't have her clothes on long enough to justify wearing them.

5. Pants are actually the devil.  It's Bon Temps anything can happen.  It wouldn't be surprising if a group of evil pants starting killing people.

6. Sookie thinks pants killed her parents so she swore to never wear them.

7.  Nobody wears pants in porn so why would they in Vampire porn.

8.  Sookie turned every pair of pants she owns into cut offs.

9.  She was always getting blood on them so what was the point.

10. Although maybe it's a much simpler reason and like Homer Simpson, Sookie just hates pants.

Creepy Willem Defoe Voiced Polar Bear in the Freezer

No wonder British people eat awful food,  they have sadistic polar bears voiced by Willem Dafoe threatening them in Birds Eye product commercials.

Intimidation and creepiness are usually not the best approach to sell your product.  The polar bear looks and sounds like the snuggle bear's serial killer cousin.

That bear is going to murder that woman if she disobeys him and possibly have his way with her.  I don't really know what that polar bear is capable of.

If I lived in UK, I'd be afraid to open my freezer.  In fact I might not use it all out of fear.

I imagine that the polar bear does something like this Willem Dafoe character but instead yells the words "Eat it, Eat it!" at you.

That Guy

I apologize in advance because you're going to waste a lot of time on this website.  If you're ever watching TV or a movie and need to figure out who "that guy"is, then this is the website for you.

It features a comprehensive list of "that guys" based on the author's requirement for being "that guy."  They include aspects such as type casting, reminds you of someone more famous and ethnic stereotypes.

Although this list isn't perfect as it seems that it's severely lacking in minorities.  I don't even see a black guy on the list.  Come on, black actors practically invented "that guy."

Every black actor besides Denzel Washington, Terrence Howard, and Don Cheadle, is "that guy" to white people.  Like anybody knows Lorenz Tate and Morris Chestnut by name so they're quintessential "that guys."

Don't lie, I know you just clicked their names and were like "oh, that guy."

First Male Contraceptive Pill: Professional Athletes Rejoice

This is landmark day for professional athletes, especially NBA players.  The London Telegraph reports that scientists have developed male pill that deactivates sperm before it reaches the womb.

And you'd only have to take this pill once every three months.  Maybe the athletes should have a party to celebrate this but I have a feeling that would just result in more pregnancies which would defeat the whole point.

This pill would probably help former NBA star  Shawn Kemp who has seven kids by six women.

Kemp's nickname was the Reign Man and was quite appropriate because he definitely made it rain with offspring in his spare time.


He was no Travis Henry though.  The former NFL running back has 11 children by 10 women.  Now that's what I call Red Zone efficacy.

Professional athletes could just stop having unprotected sex with every groupie they see, but that's as hopeless as telling an alcoholic not to drink or asking Hollywood to not make another stupid parody movie.

Although,  the real victims of this pill will be gold diggers.  They won't be able to be set for life because they're the baby's mama of some star athlete's child.

Unfortunately for the gold diggers,  they'll just be left with STDs, and athletes only buy Escalades for baby's mamas, not women with STDs.

And they won't get to call themselves "basketball wives" and have their own reality show despite never actually marrying a basketball player and really being more like a basketball girlfriend.

But don't worry the dream is still alive ladies, this male pill is at least three years away so there's plenty of time and women for professional athletes to accidentally impregnate.

Purple Drank and JaMarcus Russell

Oh JaMarcus Russell, you couldn't just stop at being one of the worst NFL quarterbacks ever.

You had to drag down the African-American community by playing to a stereotype and being arrested for illegally possessing a codeine syrup that's commonly known as Purple Drank when mixed with things such as 7-Up or Jolly Ranchers .


Purple Drank is pretty big in southern rap community as Three 6 Mafia's "Sippin on some Syrup" was actually about drinking it.

It apparently gives the user an altered state of consciousness. Although it doesn't matter how high Russell gets,  he's not going to find a realm where he's a good NFL quarterback.

Russell really couldn't have gotten arrested for weed or cocaine or something like that.  There's already an affiliation with black people liking Grape Drink.

Dave Chappelle's bit on the black kid wanting Grape Drink over Sunny D does make a lot more sense now though.



Here's the original Sunny D commercial.  That's how they get you, hook you on the Grape Drink as a kid because  Purple Drank is the adult version of it.

And, it's now clear that the Flaming Moe must have been a version of Purple Drank because its key ingredient was Krusty Brand Cough Syrup which turned the drink purple and made people act unusual.

Once again, everything in life comes back to "The Simpsons."
