Shouldn’t all hidden camera shows end like this? Seriously.
I can break these cuffs!

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.
ATHF movie intro
July 25th, 2008
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…
George…
June 23rd, 2008
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.

TS2 The Requiem
June 19th, 2008
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…

Web of Love – Joi Lansing Scopitone film
May 23rd, 2008
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.

Hell on Earth- Making The Devils
May 22nd, 2008
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.

Banana Phone- Do the dance

Are you feeling gay today? Maybe not gay enough? Do a little dance and make a call on the banana phone!
Proof that hippies evolve?
May 16th, 2008
Or just the results of an insane juggler who got stuck in a triangular drainage pipe one day? In order to take the leap from mundane park annoyance, to packing a theater full of people, you need to evolve. Michael Moschen shows us the results of evolution in the art of the juggle (damn that was gay). To help with the residual pain of having to watch a juggler, I included a Mitch Hedberg video…
