I'm sorry but it's funny ;P

And now for some Disney horror

Disney's the last place you'd look to for horror, but it seems like they're going there. There's a new Wii-exclusive game coming out under the working title of EPIC MICKEY. It features dystopian Disney settings and eerie, steampunk versions of their characters. I'm posting early concept art for it, and here's the game's premise:

Before Walt Disney created Mickey Mouse, there was Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. That's actual history, not just some made-up shit, but the game's using his obscurity as its springboard. The conceit is that once upon a time, Mickey inadvertantly spilled paint thinner onto the magical model of Oswald's world, unknowingly leaving it scarred and twisted. Mickey goes on to fame and fortune, but Oswald and his people languish in this hellish Disney World, culminating in the kidnapping of Mickey to take revenge on him in their world.

Here are some glimpses of that world...

Fantastic Fest bumper entries

A few of you have already seen these, but here are my entries to a contest held by Fantastic Fest at the Alamo Drafthouse. Basically, if any of these are chosen, it will play before some of the films. The rules were it had to be 30 seconds long, include someone under the age of 18, have a monster in it, and the last line of dialogue had to be the word 'fantastic'. Any feedback is appreciated.

This Week in Unnecessary Censorship

I think we've run clips of this before, but the full bits are too awesome to remain hidden:

Sesame Street


Mr. Rogers

So Wrong

One more for Easter...

The original theatrical trailer for the most un-cute bunny movie of all time, Watership Down:



Not for the kiddies, but it's still in my top three animated movies of all time.

Hillarack Obalinton

Now you can have it both ways



EDIT: I just had to make the political poster

Pulp Muppets

This isn't new, but I don't think it's ever been posted on the blog. And what it is is a shockingly (and creepily) good overlay of Muppet faces onto the Pulp Fiction trailer. Not only well done, but also a reminder of how cool the Pulp Fiction trailer was and is...

Tasteless Picture Time

Just saw a great movie

You should hunt this down if you haven't seen it. It's called Fido, and it's the touching story of a boy and his pet zombie. Best zombie movie I've seen since Shaun of the Dead. Here's the trailer:

Exploitation or triumph of the human spirit?

For those who don't follow Dave's Long Box on the sidebar, may I present Hong Kong's 1979 masterpiece...

CRIPPLED MASTERS!

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Hilarous show starts its new season tonight. The show also teaches valuable life lessons, such as:

Pro-choice/pro-life rallies are *not* good places to pick up women:


Also not great for getting women? Pretending to be crippled:


It doesn't matter *who* got molested... we're all special in our own way:


Words right order go in should or sense no they make:


When purchasing crack, politeness counts:

I've never watched It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia...

...but this promo for the third season is pretty funny. And very effed-up.

Mother. Of. GOD.

Remember the Angry Nintendo Nerd? Guy who does the funny, vulgar ten minute shorts where he eviscerates the worst old Nintendo games?

Well he's gone all the way back to the Atari 2600 this week and...

Man, I can't even describe it.

You gotta watch this, and you gotta watch the whole thing.

More bizarre shit from the land of Britannia!

A friend bounced these clips my way when he heard I was checking out Old Gregg from The Mighty Boosh. Show's called Snuff Box. Has some of the same creative minds as Boosh. Generally awesome in an effed-up kind of way.
