I don't know about you, but III'MM super pumped! And remember it's never too early to force your child into an embarrassing outfit and force him to systematically show everyone in the neighborhood.
Whole lot better than the lame costume he WANTED to wear.
who doesn't like coloring books? everyone likes coloring books. sit down with one and some crayons and try not to lose a whole afternoon. try it. i dare you.
once you add in some sexually ambiguous picture of vader possibly requesting a blowjammer from the princess, and my entire month is blocked off and i'm out putting a down payment on a black crayon factory.
zita makes a good point that i went a bit off the deep end with some pretty harsh shit. in light of those comments, here is a funny picture that mocks the way that vader's lil face thing looks like a silly little mouth pianer.
I'm somewhat disappointed in the taste level of Star Wars Week thus far. I thought I'd post some more tasteful Star Wars tattoos in hopes of proving that we aren't all creepy perverts.
how many questions does this create for you? are r2 and 3po now bi? since when does 3po have a tongue? should i really be all "aww so cute" about r2s little nipple clamping extendable? is it possible to be any more creeped out by 3pos emotionless, dead eyes?
it looks like we might have finally identified the author of the scout walker kama sutra. here he can be seen performing advanced techniques on a comely at-at.
for the past couple of years i see a dj spinning between bands at the willy street fair, and he always seems to play this on (bootleg?) vinyl right when i'm walking past.
dj ztrip is that guy. dude was about three years ahead of the curve making album length proto-mashups live on two turntables back when everyone was still wondering what j. timberlake was gonna do after n*sync broke up. track down a copy of uneasy listening vol. 1 (will there be a vol. 2 anytime soon?) to see what i'm talking about. if you're lucky i'll let you get a whiff of my first pressing.
more amazingness from z-trip.
now if only we could get him to put out some more music.
ugh. can we call for a moratorium on the whole tattoo covered ladies are hot hot hot shit? didn't the site start out to bring back the whole burlesque/pin up aesthetic? nowadays they're all basically tattoo covered ladies doing the same shit that normal porn stars do. is the new way to be different going to be adamantly anti-tattoos?
this image is basically the visual equivalent of SG jumping the shark. but it's not like they haven't had people say bad things about them in the past, right?
so, this olivia munn chick (terrible pun in subject? check!) is basically nerd bait? i'm surprised that there isn't more of a cottage industry around this whole idea. personally she strikes me as little more than some window dressing to distract from the lack of quakity content on g4, but that's just me i guess, and there's certainly worse window dressing to squeeze into the slave leia outfit.
make sure you turn off the volume when you click play down below or else ghastly song selection awaits.
"If Jedi walk around our stores with their hoods on, they’ll miss lots of special offers."
there's taking something seriously, and then there's taking something seriously. way to go tesco for making something that might have maybe made it onto the police blotter of the local freebie paper, and twisting it into epic public relations lulz.
old playboy cartoons are the best. they're not the funniest things in the world, but damn if those aren't some sexy women. i've been spending WAY too much cash these days, so i'ma have to hold off till xmas most likely to treat myself to this tome.
while their site totally sucks, the dudes over at the hollywood animation archive have some great resources for getting to know some of the old school playboy cartoonists. click HERE and scroll down for a sec.
talking like this makes me feel like the old man in clerks who's haggling over which skin mag they should let him read in the crapper based solely on the size of the titties in the cartoons. "uh, can I have the other one. the one below this one. they show more in that one."
i've been hanging on to a ton of awesome star wars stuff for a while now, and i think a week from now is gonna be straight up nothing but star wars week.
like everyone else out there in internetville, i think that autotune the news was/is the shit, but there's a new kid on the block as of today. school is in sesh, and prof carl is singing the science hits!
this apparently originated from some dudes called colorpulse, and you can dl the audio over here.
really digging these choir versions of awesome songs everyone already knows and loves. brings me back to the years i spent in chorus in middle school, high school, and one year of college. no joke. great stuff from the scala & kolacny brothers.
diplo sampled this version of heartbeats for the mix he posted on pitchfork a couple of years ago which eventually became the "i like turtles" mix, and i've managed to track it down just for you.
i saw these guys open for excepter last weekend and they totally were the second highest highlight, with the first being the whit suit dude from excepter taking a well deserving heckler out via megaphone to the face right after their set. more on that later maybe.
the phrase that kept rolling through my head during salems set was "absolute apathy in the face of absolute horror." slowed down screwed and chopped sludgy beats with beach house-ish melodic drones set as the score to police chase footage and infrared missiles-taking-out-military-targets? played by three heroin-chic throwbacks, but in a good way? you start to maybe get the picture.
it's a shame i dropped all my cash on excepter vinyl, cause it looks like there's almost nothing left to spend money on via the internet.
i know it's just an architectural sketch-a-ma-doo but damn if i'm totally digging this picture. apparently there're a few political flim-flams (brou-hahas?) surrounding this building, but i can't really be bothered to care since i'll likely not live here by the time the last brick's in place.
not that people are gonna get all up in arms about this, but yeah, your regularly scheduled weird art/porn/stupid music has been railroaded by this lil psa bout health care reform.
is there anything that isn't steroids that i can take to be this incredibly fucked up out of my skull? i bet it's the drugs that joe pesci was trying to make kids take in the moonwalker movie.
way cool website ova heah. covered. super-simple premise: artists recreate comic book covers in whatever way they might want to. my fave (by brian mcdonald) is above.
i've been pretty much bored to death by the VAST majority of so-called turntablism, but one of the main standouts was always roc raida and the x-cutioners. raida was always technically precise, but never getting alienatingly into the nitty gritty of the zillions of different scratches a-la q-bert. the above clip has two of my favorite moments from the documentary scratch, which highlights roc raida pretty heavily.
apparently dude was in a car crash related thing a few weeks ago and then went through some sort of mixed martial arts spinal injury thing? so few details coming out right now, even a couple days after the fact.
tweaking the pitch, flipping from 33 to 45 and back, behind the back, under the leg... great showman and always on point.
i've had this in my head for a week now. thought i'd post it up and reveal myself to be a not so closeted bluegrass fan (eat it, hipsters). well, more newgrass than blue grass i guess, but you get the picture.
apparently the rights to this album are all tied up and copies of the ten-year old cd are catching bank over at amazon.
i watched the blu-ray of this the other day. it was my first time checking out the new hi-def kid on the block and i was more than impressed. i had totally forgotten how BLUE that movie was.
i'm still hell of slow with postings until i get all this job shit sorted and make time to do this right. for now though, please to enjoy the pretty pictures.
i'm not gonna hate on a guy who just died. best role was in donnie darko, and since i posted a clip of that a couple of weeks ago, we should "never forget" dude was the shit in point break.
Okay so what the fuck is wrong with people and their weirdo blanket w/ sleeves/hoods products?
THIS one.. is for TWWWOOO people! ooOOoOOHh!! Perfect for when you want to snuggle with your boyfriend on the couch, without actually touching each other.
crazy one-off tour with the rhythm section from wolfmother playing some stankitty stank rock based riffs across six turntables. i got my tix to hit up chicago yesterday and it's looking to be the best show i'll see all year.
the physical album is only gonna be available at the shows, but since kid koala is a very unique kind of cool, you can score a 320kbs copy for nothing (for the time being?) right over here.
we aren't assholes. let us know if we need to take down any copyrighted content, and we're on that. if we posted some stuff that we didn't credit, or got the credit wrong, get at us about that too, and we'll fix it.
Only a month away!! OOHH MMAAAII GGAAWWDD!!
