Avatar has suddenly become far less impressive.

This video is 100% CGI. All of it. It's incredible. It's also 12 minutes long, but watch it all. It's worth it.

Here's the thing: A very belated Jersey Shore post

The problem with posting about Jersey Shore is, whenever I think about Jersey Shore I just want to fist pump, and I can't really type while fist pumping. It just looks like this: mnckkg hnghjghghjtyghjgh. If you've never heard of Jersey Shore, I feel sorry for you. You are certainly missing out. The show centers around seven roommates livin' on the JERSEY SHORE! The show is just like The Real World, but with guidos! Which is not a derogatory term and actually a compliment, according to the people on this show and no one else. The JERSEY SHORE is the best place to spend the summer if you're a guido, apparently. Everyone on this show is pretty much unbearable, because unlike the real world where one person is bat-shit crazy, everyone is! Seriously, everyone. The best part of the show is "The Situation" He is called "The Situation" because his abs are a situation (?). The Situation looks like he's 10 - 20 years older then the rest of the roommates, which is weird, but it's ok, because he's the situation. That's basically all you need to know about the show, if you've never seen it, but come on. Who hasn't seen Jersey Shore? Here's a summary of every episode so far. The roommates go clubbing. JWoww (yep, that's her name) calls her boyfriend and cries about how they shouldn't break up even though they probably should (but I'm not Dr. Phil). Snooki (yep.) gets really drunk and makes out with everyone in the hot tub and then says "I'm not that kind of girl." The Situation brings back some girl and breads and beds her ('nother breadstick?).

But in the last episode Snooki got punched in the face by some guy! It was really intense. The best part was the fact that EVERY SINGLE GUY in the bar went after the guy. Seriously, it was amazing, just this mob of people forcing this guy out of the bar. Then the guy was arrested and it was really amazing. I'm not even trying to make a joke, it really was incredible how everyone went after the guy.

Here's The Situation and Snooki on The Tonight Show:

I would definitely watch "Snookin' for love."

OK Go: The masters of one shot videos

OK Go first gained substantial fame with the video for "Here it goes again" or "the treadmill video" as many moms and teenage girls call it. Originally they had made a video for "A Million Ways" in which the band danced in Damian Kulash's backyard. Well, now they have a new video for their new single "WTF?" They've also made a video explaining the video called "HTF?"Both have been embedded here at Kool Thingzzz for your convenience!

WTF video:

OK Go - WTF? on MUZU.

HTF video:

COME ON, KENNIS!!

This is the entire first episode of "I want to work for Diddy 2." I only wanted to point out one part of it. At 28:45. I don't know why it's so great, I just love it.

Plan 9 remake?

I heard about a Plan 9 remake a few months ago. I was somewhat excited, until I was told it's probably a joke. But, now there's a trailer and it looks (too) legit. (to quit (smoking))

I like that the radio broadcast is the same dialogue as Criswall's introduction to the movie.

Also, GUNS AND ZOMBIES!

District 9? More like Good Movie

I admit, "Good Movie" would be a terrible title for a movie. I also believe I gave the Wayans brothers their newest movie. "'Good Movie' is a spoof of good movies. The plot revolves around a retard in the holocaust." But seriously folks (with a heavy L) District 9 was an incredible movie. I saw it at 9:30 AM. The movie was much too intense to watch at 9:30. I'm not a fan of clichés, but you won't fully understand the phrase "Edge-of-seat-movie" until you've seen District 9. I, personally, was not on the edge of my seat because I enjoy being comfortable. But my eyes were wide and my jaw was dropped for most of the movie. The main character of District 9 is a guy named Winkus who works for Alien Relations or something like that (I assume you already know there are already aliens in this movie.) At the beginning of the movie Winkus is kind of geeky, but by the end he is a total bad-ass. He doesn't even seem like the same character (which seems to make sense now but means something completely different once you see the movie.) Winkus is promoted to "main alien removal guy" (his real title is much more professional) He is in charge of moving the aliens in District 9 to a "new, better place" actually it's a concentration camp. Part of the movie is shot as a documentary and Winkus often talks to the cameraman. One scene in particular will hit you hard, when Winkus is being forced to shoot the alien weapons it looks more like a local news segment than a major motion picture. Almost everything about this movie is fantastic. The only thing I can fault is the CGI. The aliens occasionally looked like CGI. However in some scenes the CGI was incredible. The bad CGI was rare. And by "bad CGI" I mean not perfect CGI. This movie grabs you by your jock strap/suspenders (which ever you fancy) and NEVER lets go. In other words, this is the most nerve-racking movie I've ever seen.

Kool Thingzzz award winner is back and better than ever.

Last year Damon Weaver won the "Best" award during the first "Kool Thingzzz Extra Va Ganza." Now he's back and interviewing President Obama.

Do you hear that? That's the sound of another fantastic episode of Megan Wants a Millionaire!

Last night premiered the second episode of Megan wants a millionaire and as the title of this post suggests, it was fantastic. The challenge in this episode was a "talent show" and by talent show I mean Megan gets gifts. I have a feeling every challenge will just be Megan getting gifts. Every VH1 show has this episode. In the Daisy of Love version Flipper rapped and then hit himself over the head with a bottle, because he's smart. http://www.joost.com/080ydtq/t/Flipper-SUCKS#id=080ydtq Watching that video again made me realize two things. One: Cable Guy is really cool. Two: I hated that show. So on Megan wants a millionaire (which I love) the guys had to impress Megan with all their money, which isn't much of a challenge. Some of the "best" were Punisher's gift, in which he danced around in a leather thong because he's a millionaire stripper. Apparently it's impossible to have a VH1 show without a stripper. Al, who you remember from the first episode as the guy who had "Dog Jaw," redeemed himself with this challenge by getting Megan $8,000 to a Plastic Surgery place in Florida. petty cash. "Big Mike" (not to be confused with Crazy Mike from Daisy of Love) has "connections" and had a guy he knows make Megan a dress. They make Big Mike seem like a mob boss. He probably isn't, but that would be a cool twist. An even cooler twist would be if all of the contestants were actually dead! M! Night Shyamalan! I'm pretty sure that won't happen though. Joe, the trust fund baby who totally isn't gay, promise!, gave Megan a bikini that said "Trophy Wife" but it was written in crayon. My personal "favorite" was Garth who had been writing a song for Megan for the last two years called "Sex Mode" I'll let you imagine what the songs sounds like (It isn't good, I'll give you that.) The weirdest part of his performance wasn't the song, it was the fact that Garth played his song on a 13 year-old girl's boom-box and just kind of glided around the room and lip-synced to his own song. Garth is my least favorite. His hair is really greasy and he always has this weird smirk on his face. When he's not wearing his suit he's wearing a red and yellow jump suit. He's a very strange person. Anyway, Garth feels really good about his song. He's pretty sure he's going to win. He lost. Al, Big Mike and Shaun (who let Megan and her friends eat Sushi off of him) won. Garth mad! Garth s'pos'd to win! Garth confront Megan! Also, his eyes are really shifty and they creep me out. Garth goes to Megan's room and is all like "What up with that?" and Megan's all like "What do you mean?" and Garth's all like "I worked two years on that song!" and Megan's all like "sorry." Garth mad! Elsewhere, Al, Big Mike and Shaun are being told that they can "enhance the date" by buying Megan more things. Big Mike says he's got something else up his sleeve. He's got connections. Shaun and Al decide to buy all three gifts, a dozen roses, a bracelet and a coat, and split the cost. But Shaun's credit card doesn't work! OH NO! So Al pays for all of the gifts and Shaun said he'd pay him back (Spoiler: He doesn't!) Megan is hanging out with the other guys when Garth comes up and is all like "UHHHH I'm really stupid and annoying so I'm quitting! *mouth faaarrrt*" I'm paraphrasing, slightly. But Megan won't have it so she and Garth go back to her room and she persuades him to stay. She tells him he didn't win because she wanted something more romantic, so he begins reciting the lines of "Sex Mode" more sensually. It made me uncomfortable. He then says something awful like "Gimme some sugar." ugh. I'm so glad he was eliminated. oops. I wasn't supposed to say that! Megan puts her lips as close to Garth's without kissing him and darts back saying, "You'll get a kiss when you deserve a kiss" and walks away. Megan is probably the best person to have her own show on VH1 ever. After the odd conversation with Garth Megan goes on her date with the three guys and nothing very interesting happens. Before elimination Joe, the not gay (promise!) trust fund baby, kinda-sorta makes out with Megan's dog. But the dog started it! kind of. Megan says "My Dog is getting more action than me!" At elimination Al gets the first is called up first, which is important in VH1 shows. Everyone else except Joe, Shaun, and Garth is told their "credit is good". Megan calls Garth up and cuts his card in half and says something awesome. Then she calls Shaun up and cuts his card in half. Then she calls Joe, the not gay (promise!) trust fund baby up and is going to cut his card in half. But Joe is all like "I'll step it up!" So she gives him his card back. It's still too early to pick a winner, but Al 00 Dave and Big Mike are looking good.

Megan Wants a Millionaire is so much better than expected!

Megan Wants a Millionaire premiered tonight and, boy oh boy, it was incredible. The show was originally called "Trophy Wife," I think the new name is much better. The show started with Megan standing in front of a mansion greeting each of her "suitors" at the door and Niles narrating. Niles is the british butler. I can already tell this is going to be the classiest VH1 show ever. Once all the guys are in the house Brandi C. from Rock of Love and Cecille (pronounced Sea-sill) from Beauty and the Geek step out of a limo and are apparently judges. Megan gives each of the guys a present. There are 17 guys, excuse me, Millionaires vying for Megan's affection. My personal favorite is Donald. Donald is a 50 year old movie producer who you can see in the picture. When he wears his glasses he looks like an uglier version of Milton from Office Space. I also really like David, who calls himself "Double 0 Dave" I don't remember why I like him so much, he just seems like a normal person. One of my least favorites is Audi, yeah, that's his name. But it's ok because he gets eliminated, along with two others. Two of the contestants are "Trust fund babies" but one of them is a waiter who lives with his parents and waits for his Grandpa to die. I think an apt nickname for him would have been "The Waiter" but it doesn't matter because he gets eliminated with Audi and one other person. The other trust fund baby is worth $10 million and one of the most annoying people in the world. His name is Joe and I can't blame him for being so annoying because Garth broke his glittery Piggy Bank, which was a gift from Megan. (They all got gifts, but that's not important.) Now Garth, geez, Garth's a character, lemme tell ya' (I think Sarah Palin wrote that last sentence.) Garth is not only an owner of a plumbing business, but also a plumber in said business. He gets in a lot of shit on and off the show. (Puns!) Al is another Millionaire on the show. He's labeled as "The Nervous Guy" and for good reason. When he first talks to Megan he stumbles over his words and is incredibly awkward. So, to redeem himself he gives Megan a foot massage and somehow brings the conversation to his jaw. He tells Megan he has "Dog Jaw." You should be able to tell from the quotation marks that "Dog Jaw" is going to turn out badly. Al directs Megan to put her finger on his jaw. When she does he snaps his head at her and barks in her face. She spills her drink and Al "The great foot massager" goes back to Al "The guy who thinks that barking in a girl's face is a good idea" like he was at the beginning of the show. ugh. That guy has no game. Unlike me??? That's what Ralph was saying, but without the question marks. I don't like Ralph. He broke Joe's glittery piggy bank because he was annoyed with listening to Joe and Donald talk about movies. At elimination Megan gave 14 of the millionaires credit cards. But, for three of the guys their credit was "not approved." This is by far the best way anyone's been eliminated from a show on VH1. The three millionaires who were eliminated were Audi, because he sucked, 'The Waiter," because "he could be [Megan's] prince charming someday, but SOMEDAY." Donald was the third guy to be eliminated because he was so unattractive. When he was eliminated he said. I'll take the advice of Lady Gaga and "Just Dance" I'm so happy to replace that "hot" "blonde" Daisy with this hot "blonde" Megan.

Taken 2: Not actually Taken 2

You may have listened to the KoolThingzzz podcast in which we raved about "Taken" in which Liam Neeson killed everyone but his daughter with his fists. Wikipedia claims a sequel is in the works. I don't think this is it, but this is basically it.

I'm pretty sure Liam Neeson is playing the same character as he was in Taken, a guy connected to some seriously BA fists. Oh, by the way, Liam Neeson is going to be in the 2010 version of The A-Team.

Suburban Sasquatch

Thomas and I watched "Suburban Sasquatch." It was awesome, (in the way koolthingzzz uses the word awesome) If you were upset Ed Wood didn't make any movies after whatever the last movie Ed Wood made, you should watch any Dave Wascavage "film." He's has made four movies, the first being Suburban Sasquatch. And when I say "made" I really mean made, he wrote, directed, produced, edited and composed all of his films. His other three movies are Tartarus, Fungicide and Zombies by Design. You should watch any of his movies. I'm not sure if it's a joke, his terribleness, or he really thinks he makes good movies. Listen to our second podcast! [<-hyperlinked.]

Here's an interview with this mastermind of film. http://www.roguecinema.com/article-745--0-0.html

I'm so excited!! (and I also can not just hide it!)

Megan Hauserman, who may have been on more reality shows than VH1 has even had, finally has her own show! It looks like it may be the best VH1 show ever! Not even kidding. Megan was on Rock of Love 2 and got pretty far, probably. I can't really remember. She must have. She was blonde and had big boobs. So she must have. I like her because she manipulated everyone on I Love Money and quit when she realized she was going to get kicked off by her victims.

Watch this whole thing. It's incredible.

William Shatner uses his fingers on Conan

That title sounds really gay. Anyway, William Shatner was on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien last night and the interview was amazing.
