Yes, even Gabe seemed bored with this one. I think we should at least move from an exhaustive review to a one little nugget of Tohper news. This week, all we really needed to know if that Mr. Grace like to watch his own films while covered in fake blood.
I always thought of “Impossible Task” comedies as the ones where David Spade is trying to be funny.
Congratulations Gabe! And to tipster Alex for finding the video.
This is really the result of a scheduling problem. Carly, make sure your assistant always pencils in the cocaine/sheepfucking party *after* the ad brainstoming session.
Buzznet aquired Stereogum before Videogum was born.
I wish this were a giant cat sleeping in human-sized bed (with a giant hand as a roommate).
Thus my reference to “bad company”. Happy Little Trees finds himself in the company of noted douchebag Armond White. Not to say that H.L.T. is a douchebag, but they are standing together here.
Oh, Meyers could also make a terrible movie out of this, but I was thinking of an Ephron-style “You’ve Got Mail” terrible rivalry movie.
Nine nominations each for Avatar and Hurt Locker.
So this year’s Oscars focuses on the rivalry between James Cameron and his ex-wife, Kathryn Bigelow?
So this year’s Oscars will become a terrible Nora Ephron movie?
You are not alone, but you are in bad company:

Bleep bleep bloop.
Yes. It looks like a weak movie, but it’s clearly made by Mormons making fun of themselves. It seems kind of shitty for us to use it as a reason to mock them.
The Beck/O’Brien Hour: Saving America with Masturbating Bears.
The kindest interpretation I can give of Seinfeld’s comments is that Conan should be a better behind-the-scenes fighter in the murky, “no rules” world of NBC programming. Seinfeld must have been good at it to get so many chances. Leno is clearly the master.
Comment police, on patrol! You sure put him in his place.
Farley made some bad movies, but he could be very funny. I really don’t think it’s possible to watch the original Matt Foley sketch without laughing (written by Bob Odenkirk):
Should a panel of Heather Graham’s breasts decide whether to pull the plug on your dying grandmother? Yes they should.
This story would be much more compelling if Dave had decided to TAKE MATTERS INTO HIS OWN HANDS. Calling your lawyer and working with competent law enforcement officials is so boring.
Also, parallelism:
?God, it is like there are fewer requirements to be an editor than there are to be a monster.?
And the added comma. I think we?re almost there!
“Good work, sycophants!”
It’s nice that they throw in something for the frustrated stay-at-home mom with a masters in English lit. My parental leave is going to be a-ok.
Well, you can argue that there will always be a demand for gambling and that state-sponsored lottos and casinos are better than the alternatives – private industry or organized crime. At the same time, the state’s active promotion of…OMG LOOK AT THE PUPPY’S LITTLE PILLOW UNDER HIS PAW!
Yep, our generation is ready to solve difficult policy issues, no problem.
Finally, Videogum gives me the daily Jay Leno coverage I’ve been dreaming about! Keep it coming! (Please do not keep it coming.)
Given the number of editis, it looks like this 80 second video probably took about 15 hours to make. The poor kid has no idea what she’s even saying. Her awesome parents probably going to make her do a birther video after this one.
Next logical step: release “Chairman of the Bored II”, co-starring Norm McDonald.

















Yes – the scene where the protagonists venture outside clutching their coat hangers is the most scientifically perfect moment in the trailer.
