wow…this is simply the best 8 minutes you can waste today. do it.

We all like to get high now and again right? Well this has to be one of the weirdest methods I’ve ever seen…The Lemurs and the giant gross bug.

Shouldn’t all hidden camera shows end like this? Seriously.

He climbs poles for a living in Vegas, what can I say? It’s a hazardous business, you might fall, you might get ripped off while yer up the pole…and then there is the cops, they seem to frown on that sorta thing, especially when you’re fucking loaded man…It’s when you’re loaded that you may mistakenly think you have super powers that go beyond the ability to climb the pole. Little pole man, we at Pork Banana salute you, you are a credit to the entertainment community.

So the ATHF film may not have been the greatest, it had it’s moments. The best part was the intro song and skit featuring the song by Mastodon and the angry food cart characters providing a lecture on etiquette you best remember…

I remember the first time I heard the infamous 7 words you can’t say on radio and tv. I was in elementary school and my best buddy Lee had invited me over to listen to comedy albums. We often spent time listening to Richard Pryor, Steve Martin, Cheech & Chong, and other popular 70′s comedy. We had to share headphones when we put on the Carlin so as not to alert the adults as we imbibed the filthy language. Much more than a comedian…or perhaps just the perfect embodiment of what a comedian should be, sharp wit, cultural and political discourse, and not afraid to step over the line into danger. George…I miss you already.

The 7 Words…

Continuing along with the cheery heroin theme of the last post here is a pretty nice mash up of two great films from different ends of the spectrum. Requiem for a Dream and Toy story combine forces to bring all the joys of heroin use to the gleeful animated world of Pixar! “I know it’s pretty baby, but I didn’t take it out for air”.

I swear I need to make a section for this site “No this really isn’t a story from the Onion”. Sounds like a good name for a punk rock song…

Scopitone was a sort of video jukebox created in the early 60′s, considered the precursor to modern music videos. They debuted in France and primarily showed these campy 16mm film shorts. They are of course in retrospect all awesome! Here is a great one sent to me by Mr. Willis which will knock your socks off daddy.

Ken Russell is a British film maker who has made numerous great films. Perhaps his greatest and most controversial was 1971′s The Devils. The film is a completely incredible horrifying yet beautifully insane vision based on real events in France, and ultimately how those in power use mythology in tandem with the gullibility of people, to aid themselves in removing their enemies. Here is a description from IMDB-

Cardinal Richelieu and his power-hungry entourage seek to take control of seventeenth-century France, but need to destroy Father Grandier – the priest who runs the fortified town that prevents them from exerting total control. So they seek to destroy him by setting him up as a warlock in control of a devil-possessed nunnery, the mother superior of which is sexually obsessed by him. A mad witch-hunter is brought in to gather evidence against the priest, ready for the big trial.

Below is a clip from a recently released hour long documentary on the making of the film. At the time of course this film was incredibly controversial. Today I doubt it could even get made by a mainstream film maker.
