Midway Games Sponsors Movie?

March 15th, 2009 | 1 Comment

This is Wil Chinchilla from Trashwire.com and I’m here at SXSW Film + Interactive covering everything that is going on in both festivals. I was at the after party for the new gamer movie 2 Bobs that is going to show again tomorrow. As I was talking to people from promotion I saw a screen that was looping a trailer video. I took a picture of the screen and I wondered why Midway’s Logo would be on the screen if they have filed for chapter 11. Did they sponsor the movie?? If so with what money? This is the picture taken on a very crappy camera phone showing the logo of the very poor company … Read entire article »

American Idol updates on Twitter

January 14th, 2009 | 1 Comment

While I just can’t bring myself to write a full story about American Idol, I have been microblogging about the show on the Trashwire Twitter. You can check out my live tweets on the sidebar during the show or head on over to twitter.com/trashwire to follow the posts and reply. Here’s a few quotes from what I had to say about last night’s contestants: Ah, Simon never disappoints. “So you’re truning your back on your band?” Elijah Scarlett sounded like the distorted effect they put on anonymous witnesses on Dateline. Now I’m worried we’ll find Leah Marie dead in her car outside Kara’s house. This dude actually thought it was a good idea to go to a shop and pay money for a tattoo that says “Sexual Chacolate” Cody Sheldon is like Sanjaya only with over-tweezed … Read entire article »

Gerard Way reviews The Pick Up Artist 2

December 2nd, 2008 | 1 Comment

Normally, it’s a bad idea when celebrities blog. They typically have nothing to say, can’t seem to figure out the shift key, and use sentences that run on like a marathon athlete. There are, however, a few exceptions and this is certainly one of them. I know Trashwire always has much love for My Chemical Romance, but after reading lead singer Gerard Way’s review of The Pick Up Artist 2, you’ll understand why I’ve become totally addicted to the revamped My Chemical Romance blog (RSS) and twitter posts. For more like this, check out mychemicalromance.com. “You ARE the Pick Up Artist.” I gotta admit, I got the chills when I heard Mystery say that in last night’s season finale of The Pickup Artist 2. I don’t even know how I started watching this show it’s … Read entire article »

All Harrison Ford movie posters are created equal

July 15th, 2008 | 1 Comment

While browsing Netflix today, I discovered that the poster/cover art for almost all Harrison Ford movies is pretty much the same. It’s a picture of Ford, usually in black and white but sometimes in color, furrowing his brow and looking kind of concerned. Then there’s some kind of red text or additional graphic element to make it flashy and action-packed. Don’t believe me? Check these out…                                              From “Don’t You Talk Ugly to Me!” … Read entire article »

Worst song lyrics ever

July 10th, 2008 | Add a Comment

While browsing the web today, I came across a list of the “Top 10 Worst Song Lyrics Ever” from UK site HolyMoly. I completely agree with some of these, but how could Lil’ Mama’s “Lip Gloss” have escaped the list?! 1. I’m serious as cancer, when I say rhythm is a dancer – Rhythm Is A Dancer, SNAP! 2. I don’t want to see a ghost, it’s a sight that I fear the most, I’d rather have a piece of toast, watch the evening news – Life, DES’REE 3. Is that yo ass, or yo mama half reindeer? – Shake Ya Tailfeather, NELLY, P DIDDY & MURPHY LEE 4. He was a boy, she was a girl. Can I make it any more obvious? – Sk8er Boi, AVRIL LAVIGNE 5.

“This is so tits!”

May 17th, 2008 | Add a Comment

Diablo Cody posted this on her Twitter today: Which reminded me of this: Trey Parker and Matt Stone have been using “tits” as an adjective since episode 402 of South Park over 8 years ago. It seems that many people are using “tits” as an adjective these days. In fact, if you check out Jesse Blaze Snider’s MySpace page he talks about how much he loves South Park and states that the show is “totally tits.” I think it’s rad that something like this is becoming popular. In fact, it’s “big fat Oprah tits” that people are finally starting to use this South Park phrase. … Read entire article »

WeakTwin.com

May 15th, 2008 | Add a Comment

I have a little side project/hobby that I’ve been working on for a couple months now called WeakTwin.com. It’s a blog where I post pictures of celebrities who look like the lesser versions, or weak twins, of other celebrities. Today I had a post that involved two of my favorite trashy pop culture figures, Heidi Montag and Chris Crocker. I just couldn’t resist reposting it here. Chris “Leave Britney Alone!” Crocker and his friend, porn star Cameron Michaels, hit Robertson Blvd. looking a lot like another pop culture couple we know. I always thought Chris Crocker looked a bit like Heidi Montag, but this only confirms it. Now if only his boy toy would grow a creepy flesh-colored beard. You can see the original post on WeakTwin.com and check out more celebrity … Read entire article »
