• Best Skits From Kristen Wiig Hosting SNL

  In Entertainment, Television / 15 May 2013 / 0 comments

  

  Kristen Wiig was on the other side of the SNL fence last Saturday, hosting for the first time since leaving the show last season. She came back in style, bringing with her some of our favorite characters from her days as a cast member. The Californians, Target Lady, Garth and Kat and Lawrence Welk all came back to say hello, and with them the nostalgia that made Wiig a household name. She also came at us with a couple new characters that will have you on the floor, rolling in true Kristen Wiig form. Hands down, the best skit of the night was about a new show on The Disney Channel  ”Aw Nuts! Mom’s a Ghost!” is about a family with a dark past, but now with more spirit than ever. Wiig’s performance was a lot to live up to and the skits were funny, but sub-par given Kristen’s history and on screen amity with the current cast. The skits below we’re the funniest of the show, but we expect more from a cast member who’s jersey is already up in the rafters after a year of departure.

  The whole Bluth family is back and although much has changed and time has passed since we last saw them, everyone seems to be exactly where we liked them when we last left off. It looks like George Michael is in college (with Maybe) and Gob is still doing magic, which is really all we care about. Season 4 is set to kick off May 26th on Netflix.

  In Awesome, Entertainment, Movies / 9 May 2013 / 0 comments

  

  Jim Carrey is reportedly playing a TV personality in the upcoming Anchorman 2 movie and from the looks of this photo is playing an ESPN Anchor. We’re guessing there’s another fight scene, because pictures have also floated to the internet of the gang with weapons and Brick with his trident and Carrey’s lackey seems to have on a pair of hockey gloves holding a hockey stick. The set date for the release date is December 2013, so try and stay classy until then.

• Getting Sonned and the Human Response

  In Entertainment / 30 April 2013 / 0 comments

  

  Getting sonned – (v) – to be completely and utterly defeated or destroyed by another individual with extreme prejudice. A perfect example is Jon Taffer of Bar Rescue. He is continuously sonning people on his show. The below video displays a textbook sonning, in which Taffer just completely shatters this mans self esteem and transforms him into a little boy right before our eyes. Guy is an animal. Leading up to this clip Taffer comes to find out that Steve, the bar manager, doesn’t know the standard bar costs and before you know it our buddy Steve is getting castrated. Let’s take a look.

  A few years ago, Devilfish, a London-based creative agency, and director Chris Palmer of Gorgeous created this masterpiece for Sky One, a UK based television channel. The video gained some steam in the UK, but is surprising to have not gotten more than a pass around in the States. It’s as if a large fragment from my embedded childhood memory was tweaked and now I’m as confused as I am intrigued. Enjoy. Come Home To The Simpsons from devilfish on Vimeo. [h/t] It’s Nice That

• The Science of Urinal Body Language

  In Entertainment, Originals / 22 April 2013 / 0 comments

  

  Do you remember in elementary school there was always that kid- probably named Stevie or Tommy – that dropped their pants all the way down to their ankles to take a leak at the urinal not realizing this was fairly awkward behavior? Later in life these oddballs began to adapt though they didn’t quite make it all the way, stopping just short of not sticking out. We had a lot of fun with this and got Vincent Harris, M.S., a body language expert and author of the bestselling book “The Productivity Epiphany,” to comment on some of more common yet awkward stances we see and let us know how they might be interpreted.

  Ford showed up on Kimmel last night to talk about his current work and of course Jimmy inquired about the much anticipates Star Wars movie shcheduled for summer of 2015.

  Elysium takes District 9 director Neill Blomkamp and Matt Damon and smashes them together allowing both of them to do what they do best. Neil’s District 9 was a not so distant future sci-fi action adventure, where the focul point were heavily guarded do-not-enter grounds. This seems to be the same thing a hundren years post D9 with the same gritty future feel, with Matt Damon subbed in for the protagonist alien, and the heavily guarded grounds, now a Shangri-La for the privileged floating above earth. Damon, who looks to be becoming the last action hero of Hollywood, is becoming a natural at action packed blockbusters.

• Rufio from Hook is back! [Video]

  In Awesome, Entertainment, VIDEO / 28 February 2013 / 0 comments

  

  Rufio, Rufio, Ru-Fi-Ooooooooooooo!!!! If you grew up in the 90′s, you obviously saw Steven Spielberg’s film, Hook, an adaptation of the great children’s story, Peter Pan. In the film, Spielberg answers the question, “What would happen if Peter Pan grew up?” Robin Williams, who plays Peter Pan, meets up with the Lost Boys, and soon learns that they are being lead by a much suaver and hipper bro named Rufio. Rufio, played by Dante Basco, was the guy that every kid wanted to be like. He was extremely cool, stylish and fearless (plus, that skateboard he had was unreal). Hook made Dante Basco a superstar – yes, I said it – but recently, it’s been hard for Basco to land gigs because he will always be remembered for that role. Just take a look at his hilarious audition posted by Funny or Die Rufio Audition – watch more funny videos
