Happy Birthday, Tom Stoppard

Happy birthday to master scribe Tom Stoppard--who worked on both Brazil and Shakespeare in Love--and whose play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, is one of my favorites...and one I would travel long, ludicrous distances to play one of the leads in. And have, actually.

Direct link for the feedreaders.

For more evidence of how cool the play is--by way of the movie starring Gary Oldman and Tim Roth--you can check out "Questions" here.

The Hellpuppy Commands You!

LOOK INTO MY EYES

The Needcoffee.com Reader Survey closes at midnight tonight. And Hellpuppy Kora just heard a vicious rumor that you haven't taken it yet. So she instructed us, her human handlers, to use her powers of cuteness to instruct you to take the survey. Because otherwise, the puppy will be sad. And would you make a puppy sad? What sort of a heartless bastard are you? Yes, it's true...she does want to nom your soul into slobbery bits, but that's no reason to make her make the sad face, is it?

I knew you'd understand. You can find the survey here. I thank you. And Kora thanks you.

James Brown: King of Musical Teamups

So Rob sent me this: not sure where this was, but James Brown at first coaxes Michael Jackson up on stage. Then, according to Dr. Brown, Jackson insisted that Prince get pulled up on stage as well.

Direct link for the feedreaders.

So do you think Jackson really wanted Prince up there, or was it something like...this?

Jackson: "If you're going to call me up here, seriously, call that freaky Prince guy up here too. Bet you a hundred he takes off his shirt."

Brown: "Okay, I'll take that bet."

They certainly were having plenty of conferences-on-the-mound--could have happened.

After the break, another Brown teamup I had forgotten happened.

Creature From The Black Lagoon The Musical: He's Hungry

I posted a year ago that the Creature From the Black Lagoon musical was coming this spring. And I even offered some swag to anybody who would review it. It's playing at Universal Studios Hollywood--but nobody's taken me up on the offer. I'm just saying.

Anyway, if you've been wondering exactly what such a musical might look like, here's some footage that got posted thanks to Dread Central.

Direct link for the feedreaders.

On one hand, the Creature participating in a rawk love ballad is pretty funny. On the other hand, are they singing what I think they're singing? Wow.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - 27 Second Review

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen teaser movie poster

Written by: Ehren Kruger, Roberto Orci, and Alex Kurtzman
Directed by: Michael Bay
Starring: Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, John Turturro, Ramon Rodriguez, Peter Cullen, Hugo Weaving

Review: The only problem I had with the first one of these was that it tended to have things on the screen that weren't giant robots fighting other giant robots. So that needed fixing. And so it was! This time around, if you're not seeing a big bot tear another's face off (seriously, this is done quite a bit), then you're probably instead focused on some of Megan Fox's various parts. Which is acceptable. You can shut your brain down for this one. Shut it down hard.

Time: 21 seconds
