The Ambiguously Gay Duo
The Ambiguously Gay Duo @ Yahoo! Video This cartoon is a classic and I was lucky enough to find a large amount of episodes. Robert Smigel is one of the few people who can make me laugh without even trying hard. Whether he is triumph or any other colorful character, he has absolutely left a stamp at Saturday Night Live with his spoof on cartoon superheroes. … Read entire article »

See Wil Chinchilla’s Fat Ass Do Parkour
I haven’t told every single soul that I am a tracuer, so I am coming out of the closet today to tell you I am. What is a tracuer? It is a practitioner of parkour or in Trashwire.com terms, it is the opening scene in Casino Royale and the star in the french action movie District B13. If you want more information on parkour you can visit www.americanparkour.com or even www.texasparkour.com. I was recently featured in this video shot by the Houston Chronicle and it’s accompanying article http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/headline/features/6463462.html That’s me being a media whore! … Read entire article »

Tweetarded
So Megan McCain is like a passover gift, “relevant only during cycles of 8 days” and today in particular, she manages to post her entire *cough* career through twitter in response to a recent co-worker comment. What we have learned is that she curses, she is ignorant and doesn’t realize the silver spoon in her mouth, and she doesn’t proofread 140 characters or less. Here is a small piece of her tirade. You can read the rest on Gawker.com Other writers agree McCain can’t cut it as a writer. Also, I don’t think flower shop experience can exactly parlay into an internship with Saturday Night Live … Also, if the use of “an assistant to a photographer and worked for Newsweek” is for the sole purpose of coordinating two different clauses, its not … Read entire article »

SXSW Review: ‘My Suicide’ Showcases Wonderful Talent All Around

Film + Interactive= Happy SXSW
A definite and important decision that the people that run the SXSW Festival(s) was made for 2009. This year for the first time Film + Interactive was linked for specific panels and areas of the convention. This was absolutely a smart move on their part because film is not so different from Interactive because both involve technical detail that is viewed on a screen, a controller and some buttons set them apart. Some of the best linked panels included: Robert Rodriguez and Henry Selick Comedy on TV and the Web with Sean Mills (The Onion), B.J. Novak (The Office), Keith Richman (Break.com), Meredith Scardino (Cobert Report), Ricky Van Veen, moderator (CollegeHumor.com) Suprisingly Meredith was one of the funniest panelist and its very obvious why. Screenburn Arcade Finally after all of the stress of waiting … Read entire article »

SXSW Film Awards Winners and Kickoff to Music
This years Film Festival was bigger than ever. Although it isn’t officially over, there are still tons of movies to see. Some of which have won an award at this year’s film festival. Throughout the rest of the week badge holders can still see some of the movies at any of the theaters showcasing them. Still, the madness will enrage because the Music portion of the festival started yesterday and will continue until Sunday. Even though there are tons of official SXSW parties there are even more unofficial SXSW music parties. One band that I have heard in Austin that deserves some attention is this band from Oz called Porcelain. Just walking around I heard sick vocals and decided to watch their show; it was amazing.
