Whit and i watched They Live again tonight. I think most rational people can agree that this is one of the best fight seems to ever appear in a movie, but i think it’s also worth noting, as Mindy pointed out, that it happens for one of the best reasons ever. Glasses fucking on, indeed.

Outtakes

alexbalk:

A couple of weeks ago we did an Q&A with the great composer John Williams in advance of the new Indiana Jones movie. It turned out really well, but having looked at the analytics for the year, it’s become very apparent to me that Q&As drive almost no traffic, so I think we’re probably gonna have to scrap it in place of “‘And Your Little Dog, Too’: Proctologists Recall Their Most Surprising Extractions.”

Still, there were some interesting things in the interview that came completely as news to me. Did you know that when Williams composes a score he comes up with lyrics in his head first and then writes the music to them, even though he knows no one will ever hear the words? This sort of counted as a little bit of a scoop, so rather then let it go to waste I want to share it with you here. For the first time ever, Williams revealed the lyric to “Raiders March,” the stirring title theme of the movies:

In-di-ana fuck-ing Jones

In-di-ana moth-er-fuck-ing Jones

In-di-ana fuck-ing Jones

Bite my ball-sack you Na-zis I’m In-di-ana fuck-ing Jones

What’s so amazing about these lyrics is how accurately they convey the excitement of the film while also delineating its plot points. Williams told us that this was rather an unusual case for him, as he prefers to his verse to illuminate the character rather than the story (the words he came up with for the Superman theme, for example, were “He’s got a big cock/Su-per-man/It’s hard as a rock/Su-per-man;” which, as he explained, gives more of a sense of how others see the titular hero), but that he thought the richness of the Raiders scenario called for something a bit more complex. Anyway, fascinating stuff, and I’m sorry we can’t use it, but at least you guys know. So tell your friends.

It’s on the internet, so it has to be true. Which is fantastic.

If you haven’t seen B-Unit and Whistle Pop sing this at karaoke (which i’m assuming most of you haven’t) you haven’t really experienced the song.

The New York Times has an article up about weird food statues from around the world, which is pretty interesting. But even though i agree with them that the  french fry guy they picked is kinda creepy, i think the one above is way worse.

Don Omar Ft. Pitbull - “Fuego”

I think this could become Mindy and my trashy song of the summer. We’re kinda suckers for that Debbie Deb hook.

Poor guy. I like how it says “animals were emotionally harmed during the making of this film” at the end.
