Whassup?

Well I think this just about says it all.

Are John McCain and Barack Obama “Frenemies?”

The Hollywood catfight between the two biggest celebutantes of the political world continues, as Obama strikes back with his own accusations of fame-hogging. Do I smell “The Simple Life” Political Edition in the works?

Happy Fun Ball!

OK, this might not be topical, but it is one of the funniest commercial parodies ever and one you need to see.

(On the other hand, maybe it IS topical. How much you wanna bet Happy Fun Ball is made in China?)

She’s at the Wall….

Here’s a cute ad that shows what even a young female amateur can do on the baseball diamond with the help of a little flavored sugar-water. What the heck she is doing out in deep left field in the first place is anybody’s guess.

Just Say No

Here is undoubtedly the greatest anti-drug PSA of all time.

McBuyer Beware

This is what will happen to you if you eat at McDonald’s too often.

Pigeon Field

Here in my opinion, is the sweetest of all the Super Bowl commercials. You can keep your talking babies and screaming rodents, give me giant pigeons attacking the city. It’s like The Birds meets Terminator meets Godzilla all in one.

This for me, is why a movie like Cloverfield is pointless. I get the gimmick. It’s a big budget monster movie made to look like a low budget one. However, the monster movie classics like Godzilla and King Kong were also big budget movies that looked like low budget ones, but unintentionally, which is so much better. The point is that everything you need from a monster movie, you see in that 30 second pigeon spot from Fed Ex.

Giant creatures doing massive property damage and kicking the hell out of fleeing civilians all over the city. It’s great, but thirty seconds of it is enough. No need to draw it out for two hours.

That having been said I probably would watch a “giant pigeons attacking the city” movie for two hours.

Think it can’t happen here?
