Weekend Poster

Fur, Jackass 2, DOA, Infamous, Paris, Je T’Aime, Everything’s Gone Green, and Marie-Antionette… and Borat.

  • Brad Pitt: What living with Angelina Jolie does to a man. All kidding aside, though, he was up late last night pretending to be an architect.

  • Lindsay Lohan: So, does this mean she’s dating Pete Doherty now?

  • Ben Affleck is the new John Travolta… What, too soon?

  • Garden State + absolutely nothing = The Last Kiss. (via recidivism)

  • Scarlett Johansson in Vogue... at Superior Pics.

  • The Simpsons: Another few years? Sure, why not.

Muse’s Sabotagesque spaghetti western video for “Knights Of Cydonia” (director’s cut) might be the best music video for as long as we care. Aaah, Joesph Kahn directed it. All hail him. He also did the hilarious (but crying on the inside) “Muscle Museum” video.

Tons of stars in Infamous. Looks like the little guy will out-Capote Seymour Hoffman. And an almost identical plot. Will be interesting to see if anyone goes to see it.

thanks for the elliott smith call of the wild, i really liked it

I forgot about all the blocky white geometrical shapes of the 80s..the stairs that lead to nowhere. Those were big in photo studios. And does the fanny pack say “Laser?” He’s the king of visuals.

Kidman with the baby voice again

Alex Blagg had a long rant about Last Kiss on Best Week Ever. The brianpalmer post sums it up even better. You can’t just spray fake rain on a hipster character while blasting a Death Cab sounding song to make the audience feel something.

I knew there was going to be an industry connection to Lonely Girl. I thought it an elaborate movie promo.

Doooooood, I love the Rapture guys voice—the best out there right now. And the few YLT trax out, especially Black Flowers are quietly dope.

danger mouse worked on the new rapture? he’s everywhere; he even helped Banksy w/the Paris “album.”

right on about that muse video! i saw it the other night and totally loved it. this album is incredible.

I laughed my ass off watching the Muscle Museum video.

Holy fucken shit!! That is the best music video EVAR!!!!

I have found some great Elliot Smith tracks thanks to you Spencer. High five yourself for me, would ya?

Are you alive?

i can’t take the lack of posts anymore, ss! what could be causing such an absence, i wonder.

are you blogging for jane? no. are you designing another t-shirt? unclear, but seemingly, NO.

you can’t possibly be doing anything more important than coming up with a nice big fat post comprised of something involving malkmus or spoon or parker posey or lohan or richie, can you?

oh…bunsie. right.

Muse is a lot like Charlie Sheen or sugar-free gum, empty and somewhat evil..and necessary with a question mark.

It used to be that video games were modelled on movies. Trailer for D.O.A. (terrible name) looks like watching 2 hours of a straight up cgi video game.

oh and if muse really wanted to go spastic bombastic on knights of cydonia or if i’d produced the song there would’ve been at least 5 sir mix a lot whipcracking (whupchihh!) noises spliced in like the wildcat scream.

I can’t take any more Jackass movies. If this one hits you’ll see Knoxville and co doing killing sprees in the next one.

jt took a huge chunk of playbook from Junior Boys who rock harder than sylvester stabone’s boner

Forget tazers, I’d like to see Knoxville change some really high, long florescent bulbs. That’s danger right there. Then I’d be the one lone set of hands clapping that starts everyone clapping in the climactic scene of a high school sports flick.
