The Space Giants - Chapter One
 |
When I was about six years old or so, this seemed to make a hell of a lot more sense to me. My, how the times have changed… |
Danger Mouse and Jemini - Bush Boys
 |
This swinging ditty is from two years ago, but it still thumps just as hard today and the video is just as pertient indeed. |
The Art of Flight
 |
An immensely emotional and personalized view of Sudanese refugees that was independently directed and produced. |
The Electric Company - Unday
 |
Way back in the seventies, when you got a little to old for Sesame Street you would move on to watching The Electric Company. |
The Holy Mountain - Trailer
 |
Supposedly Alejandro Jodorowsky’s films are finally going to released on region 1 DVDs according to ABKCO Films. |
James - The Musical Batman
 |
Wow…and I thought Michael Keaton made a terrible Darknight Detective. I’m sure James’ mother is extremely proud of him. |
Things to Come
 |
H.G. Wells was given a wide range of control over this intriguing British film production, and he even adapted the screenplay himself. |
The Goodies - Funky Gibbon
 |
It’s a shame that here in the U.S. we didn’t get much of a chance to enjoy The Goodies and their quirktacular comedy stylings. |
Le Bon Roi
 |
See, this is why you should never leave home without a Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. Those damn killer rabbits are a pain. |
Ringwald and Molly - Cannibal Holocaust
 |
Rob Schrab is some kind of super dude gifted with a vast imagination, and his Channel 101 stuff was outrageously creative. |
How To Beat Star Wars: ESB
 |
I have played this game probably more than any other cart that I own for my Atari. Just hearing the 2600 render the theme song in bleeps and bloops still makes me all giddy. |
M - A City In Search Of A Murderer
 |
Peter Lorre was one of the most imitated individuals in movie history, even though most people today probably have no idea who he was. This film is also profoundly brilliant. |
Polysics - Mr Roboto
 |
Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto for doing the jobs that nobody wants to and thank you very much, Mr. Roboto for helping me escape just when I needed to. |
Salvador Dali - Genius
 |
Dali prints are such typical college freshman dorm decoration and in some way, that is really doing him a bit of a disservice. |
Paper Heart
 |
The secret goth and emo loser in me really likes the look of this short film. That heart isn’t made of paper, though. |
Vivo Con Tu Madre
 |
Rapping clown? Check. Bearded cross dresser? Got it. Alien abduction. It’s in there. Worse than ICP? Maybe… |
Falling Hare
 |
Termite Terrace was the type of miraculous collection of wacky, off the wall geniuses that only happens once every few generations . |
William Shatner - No Tears For Caesar
 |
Shatner breaks it down in a scene from Free Enterprise, which was a nerdishly clever movie you might not be aware of. |
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
 |
This 1916 adaptation of the ubiquitous Jules Verne novel was the first film to feature actual underwater footage. |
Mountain Trip to Japan, 1959
 |
If watching the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players doesn’t bring a smile to your face, consider yourself dead inside. |
Vanilla Ice - Ninja Rap
 |
There is a new TMNT movie in the works and the trailer just hit the net, so I thought I would do a blast from the past and bust out some Robert Matthew Van Winkle. |
Jan Pehechaan Ho
 |
You might remember this rock’n Bollywood musical number which was featured in the opening sequence of Ghost World. |
Santa Claus Conquers the Martians
 |
I’ve always wanted to do one of those lame “Christmas In July” posts, so here you go… and it doesn’t get much lamer than this. |
Yellow
 |
Can anyone tell me when Neil Blomkamp is going to make a full length movie? I have a feeling this guy is going to be amazingly huge soon. |
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
 |
This is the earliest known surviving film version of a work by L. Frank Baum, who actually was still around to provide some input on the production. |
Um Jammer Lammy - After School Sale
 |
If they would do a new version of this game that utilized the Guitar Hero controller…well, I think I would just go crazy with glee. |
Dino-Riders - The Adventure Begins
 |
Aliens, time-travel, lasers mounted on dinosaurs, and Frank Welker…what more could you want from a show that was pretty much one big toy ad? |
Dschinghis Khan
 |
Leave it to the Germans to come up with a gloriously awful disco dancehall hit about a ruthless bloodthirsty conqueror. |
Twilight Zone - Nightmare At 20,000 Feet
 |
Shatner could have just broken into “Lucy In Sky With Diamonds” and I’m sure that would’ve driven that damn gremlin away. |
Message From Xenu
 |
I’d like to thank The Truth Rockets for passing on this extremely urgent message from the great alien leader of the Galactic Confederacy. |
The Cameraman’s Revenge
 |
“Mr. and Mrs. Beetle have too calm a home life. Mr. Beetle is restless and makes frequent trips to the city.” Starevich was ahead of his time. |
