I can’t get the Bed Intruder song out of my head!

Maybe you’re like me and you saw this auto tuned video of Antoine Dodson on the news. And maybe you’re like me and you fell in love with the song.

It’s such a simple and clever idea, turn an internet meme in to something catchy and musical. Nothing gets stuck in your head and passed around so much as a clever song.  Have fun getting this one stuck in you head for the rest of the weekend! See you guys back on Monday.

Something seems different with Full Metal Jacket

The above clip is Sort of NSFW, but use your common sense. Okay, we all know that Full Metal Jacket is a pretty intense movie, the first half of it alone has more curse words than a pirate divorce hearing. But there is something about this clip that just makes me laugh my face off. When you turn R. Lee Ermy’s normal, grating drill instructor’s voice in to the blathering sound of Donald Duck it’s pretty much the best thing on the internet.

Imagine right now what the scientist back in the 60’s and 70’s were thinking about when they were building the foundations of the internet, do you think they knew what we were going to do with it? I like to think so.

I can’t tell you how much I learned from this video

See more funny videos and TBT Videos at Today’s Big Thing.

If there is one thing that the internet has given us it is the ability to look up ridiculous videos of fathers with funny beards disarming their toddlers with karate. At least that’s what I’m usually using the web for.

For instance: I did not know that when you are attacked by someone with a knife you should grab their hand and just shake it. Just keep shaking it until the knife falls out.

Thank you Gavin McInnes, you’ve saved thousands of lives today.

Catch me on LA Talk Radio on Sunday 2pm PT/5pm ET!

This Sunday I’ll be on LA Talk Radio on the Give Back Hollywood show with Todd Michael Krim. It’s a great program that does more than it’s fair share to get celebrities in the Los Angeles area to give back to the community. Check them out by clicking HERE.

Take a listen and check me out this Sunday, then right after that I’m going to the Restore Baseball to Inner Cities event put on by the Dodgers. It’s going to be an awesome weekend, I hope you all make the best of it too!

Peace!

I feel like my life finally makes sense now


All I had to do in order to achieve enlightenment was find a video of some guy throwing a brick inside an out of control washing machine.

There really isn’t much more to add to this video, just a man… a brick… and an insane spin cycle that looks like an early version of the T-1000. RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

Pssst – You guys wanna see the new Thor trailer?


I’m always in to seeing the newest and coolest comic book – turned movie, The Spiderman movies were great and the new Bat Man with Chris Nolan are far and away the best yet. With that in mind, I really can’t wait to check out this Thor movie (and the Avengers flick after that!).

Check out the 4 minute (!) trailer and let me know what you think

This 3D Face technology will blow you away

I just saw the new trailer for Tron and I was blown away by how they made Jeff Bridges look 30 years younger. Then I remembered that they did the same thing in X Men 3 with Sir Ian McKellan and Sir Patrick Stewart. Then I got to rooting around Youtube for the next hour linking from one cool video to the next until I saw this. Is this crazy or what?

From a single picture they are able to render a complete 3d model. Am I the only one who thinks that we should be a lot further along in the whole special effects/3D/gaming realm? I mean, if we can do this just think about it!

Comic Con Begins in San Diego!

I can’t make it to the San Diego comic Con this year, and sadly I’ll be busy with the Starkey Hearing Foundation in Minneapolis. I’d love to go to SDCC, but you gotta set some time apart for those who need attention.

The Starkey Hearing Foundation does amazing work getting youths care and equipment that helps them hear, which is an incredible gift that not many are lucky enough to get. Everyone have fun down south, though. and I’ll see you all next week. Can’t wait to read all your tweets!

I had this crazy dream last night about a movie called Inception

Inception is doing really well and that is one of the best thing I could hear. The movie is so sharp and compelling that I could not keep from sinking down along with the characters in the film as they went deeper and deeper in to each other’s minds. I bought a ticket for a seat in the theater but I only sat on the edge. That’s how  magnetic this movie is.

The characters are dapper, the plot pulls you along an exciting path while throwing twist and turn at you with perfect pace. It all builds up to a movie that works as a drama, a heist movie, a thriller and a noir film all in one.

Here’s to hoping that more pictures like this get made and there can be a resurgence of quality cinema in the world.

I’m buying Old Spice from now on

I don’t remember seeing this before but it is maybe the funniest advertisement I’ve seen in years. It’s sharp, quick and 100% hilarious. Usually this has nothing to do with the product that is for sale, and I don’t even think about the commercial when I’m in the store. But this ad makes me want to buy Old Spice just because they make me laugh.

I guess I’m pretty impressionable. What do you think? If you say I am I’ll believe you. Damnit, there I go again!
