Here we are again, bringing the music videos you didn’t know you wanted to see.

“The Hillywood Show: Pirates of the Caribbean Parody” – Very upbeat and fun. “If I had you…”

“The Hillywood Show: The Walking Dead Parody” – It’s new and wonderful and you’re missing out if you don’t watch it. “Another one bites the dust.”

“Melissa Ethridge: Come to My Window” – ‘Come to my window. Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon. Come to my window. I’ll be home soon.’ Featuring the ever charming Juliette Lewis. Why? Because suck it, this is still a good video.

“Alannah Myles: Black Velvet” – Look at those eyebrows. What?

“Frozen: Let It Go Sing-along” – ‘The snow glows white on the mountain tonight, not a footprint to be seen. A kingdom of isolation, and it looks like I’m the queen. The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside. Couldn’t keep it in, heaven knows I tried. Don’t let them in. Don’t let them see. Be the good girl you always have to be. Conceal, don’t feel, don’t let them know. Well, now they know. Let it go! Let it go! Can’t hold me back anymore. Let it go! Let it go! Turn away and slam the door. I don’t care what they’re going to say. Let the storm rage on. The cold never bothered me anyway.’

“Paint: Boy Brand” – ‘You’re insecure. Feel like a bore. I’ve got a hunch we know what you’ll adore.’ ‘Your mom. Your mom. Your mom. Your mom.’ Lol.

I love the “After Ever After” videos to ridiculous degrees. Seriously, they make me super happy.

“Paint: After Ever After” – Disney parody. “Thank you BP.” Ariel, Jasmine, Belle, and Pocahontas.

“Paint: After Ever After 2” – Disney parody. Mulan, Cinderella, Tiana, and Elsa.

“Anastasia: Once Upon a December” – This movie was (and is) beautiful.

“Fievel: Somewhere Out There” – ‘Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight. Someone’s thinking of me and loving me tonight.’

“The Hillywood Show: LoTR Let It Go Parody” – Lord of the Rings and Frozen’s “Let It Go” in one video? What’s not to love? ‘What are you waiting for? Just let it go!’

Hope you enjoyed.

See you next Monday! (Maybe.)

Trailer For Psycho Beach Party

The trailer makes it seem kind of over the top, but I actually really love this movie. Lauren Ambrose did an awesome job as Chicklet — which the trailer didn’t really highlight — a sweet and unintentionally hilarious character. Then the switch to Ann Bowman… wow. She is a great character actress.

For some reason, this movie was marketed as though it was an American Pie kind of movie, and it’s not. All the characters are pretty innocent and hyper-1960’s American TV people. Except there’s all these innuendos and every once and a while a character will have a “WTF?” moment as they realize something kind of sexual or raunchy just happened. It’s kind of like Pleasantville, though with a lot of silly humor.

This movie is also gay friendly, parodying a lot of the 1960’s beach movies. There’s a mystery to be solved, and a lot of hot guys that mostly go around with their shirts off. The murder is gruesome, but in a cartoonish manner. There’s a sexual identity crisis, multiple personality disorder, and tough women — the guys think they’re in charge, but the women are the ones going around doing everything. There’s a bit of raunch and some black humor, but as long as you can laugh about it things should be cool.

Obama and Romney Tackle 14 Top Science Questions from Scientific American

So they went and answered some science questions. There’s a lot of politico spin on it and some definite… I don’t even know the word. Mitt Romney says he’s not a scientist and I believe him. But he is a politician, so I was still confused by his answers. Obama was a little more concise and to the point and I liked that a bit better than a long rambly answer that didn’t really answer anything.

They were both being the politician guys, which kind of disappoints me because I wanted some straight, honest answers. Science stuff is actually pretty important, and even if I’m personally too dumb to understand it… it’s still the kind of thing that shapes the way we live in the world today and tomorrow. And the President of the United States, as the Commander In Chief, is the guy that while he doesn’t know how to make flying cars himself, can point at some inventor dude and say “Get it done.” That or he’s supposed to know enough to say “This is stupid. Work on something that’s actually relevant. And please don’t tear up the environment while you do it. No more chopping down redwoods to make picnic tables.”

Bill Clinton’s Full DNC Speech 2012

I didn’t see the speech as it played live because I was watching the movie Battleship (there will be a review of that coming soon) but I was kind of skimming the tweets. Then I tried to catch the rehash on CNN and they were just cutting it all up. So of course I went in search of the full speech.
