Wow. Who would have guessed this? Annabeth Gish did a nude scene in the premiere episode of Showtime's Brotherhood.

This is HOT! Possibly the most famous scene from Animal House  (Movie House Review) in high definition.  Belushi spies on Mary-Louise Weller. Fairly big download for a small clip, but totally worth it! Sample captures below.

Kazakh TV presents: Borat in America

I Innocent!
  • Borat responds to the government of Kazakhstan, which said, "We do not rule out that Mr. Cohen is serving someone's political order designed to present Kazakhstan and its people in a derogatory way. We reserve the right to any legal action to prevent new pranks of the kind. We view Mr. Cohen's behaviour at the MTV Europe Music Awards as utterly unacceptable, being a concoction of bad taste and ill manners which is completely incompatible with ethics and civilized behaviour."

This movie looks hilarious!!! The trailer for Borat
  • "Sacha Baron Cohen - star of HBO's hit comedy Da Ali G Show, takes his outrageous Kazakstani reporter character Borat to the big screen. In this hilariously offensive movie, Borat travels from his primitive home in Kazakhstan to the U.S. to make a documentary. On his cross-country road-trip, Borat meets real people in real situations."

  • The new system will be used to report more modern concerns, like terrorist activities and ads for "Snakes on a Plane." Now get outta here, ya nuts, and get those motherfuckin' snakes off my motherfuckin' plane.

  • You have to read through the product reviews! Some of the funniest stuff I've read in ages.
  • One reviewer wrote: "I'll admit it. Shopping for a personal tank can be a bit daunting. Many times in the past I've purchased overpriced, so-called "battle tanks", then driven them into battle only to be wrecked in ten minutes by the first blow off of some insurgents home-made mortar. But not this baby, no way. This tank R-O-C-K-S! Literally- the 400-watt sound-system keeps me rockin like a crazy man as I'm dishing out justice commando style. Wow. I just can't say enough. And the kids love it, too- imagine the look of terror in the eyes of the enemy as I'm dropping off my kid's team to their soccer game. Shock and awe, my friends, SHOCK AND AWE! I had NAO install the optional GPS-guided white phosphorus missile system, and talk about *SWEET*! Burn baby burn!!! Oh, it also has plenty of room for groceries, and if you need to like move a loveseat or something it'll fit if you use a little bungee cord. The only real negative with this tank is that it shows up on radar a little more than I like (although there is a polyresin graphite stealth model available). Also, the included spare isn't full size. Overall, a great tank."

A clip from Employee of the Month (see below for details)

The trailer and a clip from Employee of the Month, a new comedy starring Jessica Simpson
  • For customers of Super Club, the largest high-volume, bulk-discount retailer in the country, membership has its privileges. For workers at the cavernous store, the most coveted honor is the "Employee of the Month" award, and having one's photo immortalized on the wall of fame in the staff lounge. Enter Zack Bradley (Dane Cook) and Vince Downey (Dax Shepard), two ultra competitive Super Club workers whose ten years of employment have resulted in drastically different career paths. While Vince – with the aid of his trusty sidekick Jorge (Efren Ramirez) -- has advanced to become head cashier and winner of 17 consecutive "E of M" awards, Zack is the ultimate slacker whose scruffy appearance and laid back attitude has made him popular with his colleagues, but kept him stuck in the lowly ranks of the store's box boys. The duo's longtime rivalry comes to a bitter head when Amy (Jessica Simpson) – a beautiful new cashier with a reputation of only dating "Employee of the Month" winners – transfers to the store, immediately becoming the object of both Zack and Vince's affection and often comical gamesmanship. While Vince instantly impresses Amy with his crowd pleasing, flamboyant style behind his checkstand register, Zack's feeble attempts to charm his beautiful new co-worker quickly backfire against him. With the race to win Amy's affections slipping away, Zack determines his only chance rests in winning the store's next "Employee of the Month" award. A battle to the end, "Employee of the Month" shows that the only failure in life is when one fails to try.

Movie Reviews:

Yellow asterisk: funny (maybe). White asterisk: expanded format. Blue asterisk: not mine. No asterisk: it probably sucks.



 

"I Love You, Alice B. Toklas!"

I Love You, Alice B. Toklas! (1968) was released while I was in the Navy, and hence I missed seeing it then. Now that it is available on DVD, I finally got my chance. I knew, of course, that it involved Alice B. Toklas brownies, and not much else. Had I seen this is the late 60s or early 70s, I would have adored it.

Peter Sellers plays a Jewish attorney engaged to a good Jewish girl (Joyce Van Patten) who is pressuring him to set a date. His brother has dropped out, and he is pretty much his Jewish mothers only hope for grand children. When Sellers is sent to fetch is brother to attend a funeral, he meets a gorgeous hippy chick, Nancy (Leigh Taylor-Young). When his family descends on him with his fiance, they end up eating brownies Nancy has made. Sellers skips out to see Nancy. Cut to the wedding, where Sellers can't go through with it, and drops out himself.

That was exactly what would have won me over. The counter-culture rescued on over 30 from the dark side and got him on the true path. Today, my reaction was somewhat different. I didn't see Van Patten as especially straight or repressive, and it occurred to me that, as a layer, he could have married her and been able to afford to enjoy the world.

Leigh Taylor-Young shows most of her breasts in two scenes.

IMDb readers say 6.3. It was nominated for acting and writing awards. My enjoyment was chiefly nostalgic, other than the fact that Leigh Taylor-Young looked amazing, and did an excellent job in the role. Sellers played it very Woody Allen-esque. This is a C. It was an important comedy in its day, but is now either hopelessly dated or a fun time capsule.

SLACKER BAND SUES "ROCK STAR: SUPERNOVA"
The CBS Attorneys Are Supernasty - An Orange County, California, rock band that's been called Supernova since 1989 is suing the CBS talent search show, "Rock Star: Supernova," claiming it infringes on their trademark. The show will pick an unknown to be lead singer of a new band called Supernova, with Tommy Lee. The Orange County Supernova isn't rich or famous, but they plan to fight for their name. Bassist Art Mitchell said, "We're going to kick some butt, dude. They probably figured we're clerks, but our drummer Dave is a lawyer." An attorney for the show said their lawsuit is "without merit."

* Another concept the TV show stole!
* He added that the Orange County band calling themselves Supernova violates truth-in-advertising laws.
* They also thought up the idea of creating a third-rate band with a lousy name.
* They are also suing Tommy Lee, claiming that they thought of taping themselves having sex with Pamela Anderson before he did.


NEWS NOTES
* The Oxygen Channel is launching a series called "Breaking Up With Shannon Doherty," in which women lure their unsuspecting boyfriends onto TV, where Doherty informs them they're being dumped

...And then clubs them for good measure
...Shannon really enjoys her work
...Men who come on this show NEED oxygen
...Men will tune in because they like the idea of breaking up with Shannon Doherty
...This is too public. If you want to dump somebody, take them to a crowded restaurant.


* FREE SPEECH VICTORY! Comedy Central announced that they will once again start airing the Emmy-nominated "Scientology" episode of "South Park"

...Turns out that on the new Hollywood power lists, Cartman outranks Tom Cruise.
