I can't stop listening to the Alvin and the Chipmunks pop covers slowed down to their original recording speed.
I keep listening to that at work but at double speed so it's just the regular voices singing in regular time. It's not good but it's entertaining.

There was one that's not there now that was great and it mashed the "I Sit On You" song from Tim & Eric with "I Got My Mind Set On You" by George Harrison and I'm devastated it's gone.
Orgonon Gurls was the song that made me look up Kate Bush and now I love Kate Bush' stuff. Shame to see that the Sit On You remix is gone.

Apropos of nothing, I feel bad for live musicians at bars. You know they, deep down, want to play their own music they've written. But their audience (you know, white folks in the process of getting drunk) only respond to the covers they know the lyrics to while in the aforementioned process of getting drunk.

Hmm.

I dunno, I can't pick any off the top of my head, but maybe I'd take one of those 10 million dollar found footage films from 2006-2015 that are just totally forgettable and pick them apart for something more interesting. Maybe like pick Devil's Due and remove all of the racist aspects and the blatant cult involvement or Project Almanac and turn that into something more cohesive.

Alternately a redo of Cabin in the Woods into a movie that either focuses exclusively on the folks in the conspiracy or removes the whole "elder gods" thing and the fact that they're making them conform to certain roles. Or both. I think that's a movie that could do with some meddling.

I'm glad La La Land is getting a good reception. It turns out my cousin's friend who collaborated on him in videos and stuff in college ended up having a role in the production of the film, so much so my cousin got invited to go to the red carpet premiere and watch the movie. Dude works for Lionsgate but I'm not sure what role he plays in filming.

Shame the week he was going to go down to the premiere was the week grandma died and he scrapped his plans to be a pallbearer with me. He could've still gone to the premiere, but he felt bad about having to take extra time off for the funeral and just decided to cancel the flight.

There's a difference between doing what SNL did, which admittedly they feel is a mistake and are fighting back against it with intentionally antagonizing the guy and taking some good shots at him (which, to some, is too little too late), and what Fallon did. SNL kinda just flatly tolerated having Trump on the show and that episode is largely unwatchable mostly because there's the big elephant in the room of the fact that he's on the show and none of it is funny, none of it is anything beyond the slightest lip service. Fallon had him on the show and he did more than tolerated his presence; he engaged with him, he paled around and he even mussed up his hair. It's the fact that he so openly engaged with him and treated him like he's far more harmless than he is but also that he's deserving of such treatment.

SNL still really isn't off the hook with me though. The passivity of having him on said all it needed to in the face of others choosing to reject him outright.

My hometown's public library shared its building space with a strip club, which is one of the few perks of being poor. We got a few eviction notices growing up but Mama always made them go away somehow. It must've really sucked going through the "pack a suitcase" ordeal, Robot homie.
That sucks that it was a pubic library.

God you joke but I had two people come out of Sing today after a half hour and straight up ask for a refund because they thought Matthew McConnaughey and Reese Witherspoon were in this movie and they thought they bought tickets for the wrong show. When I was like "they are, but he voices the koala and she's the pig" they said "...oh, this is an animated movie? We were wondering when the humans were gonna show up." "They aren't, it's all talking animals." "Oh."

It's unfortunate and unfair how the Black Dynamite animated series killed most of the fondness I had for the movie. Man that series was...not good (well outside of the actual character of Black Dynamite).
I liked the first season, it did some good things like the running saga of Black Dynamite's feud with a muppet and the general intersection between Dynamite and other famous people. Then the second season kicked that up a dozen notches and also kept going back to the well of rip-off/homages that lasted the whole episode and was not better for it.

I wonder if Adult Swim is going to bring back Black Jesus for a third season. That was an interesting show.

The new Resident Evil movie wasn't bad but it did suffer from three problems. First, definitely feels like there should've been another movie in between the last one and this one that focused on President Wesker and the White House Throwdown. Second, little too much of a retread of 4 with the whole tower defense thing, didn't add a hell of a lot to the plot and feels like someone jammed a sidequest into the movie. Third and most importantly, not really as dumb as it could've been. Still generally enjoyable.

So the intro to Unironic Robocop is just play-by-play plagiarizing the beginning of the first Iron Man but instead of a car crash his black friend gets gutshot in a robbery when his actions make it worse so now it's the adventures of a white techbro privatizing the police to avenge his dead black friend and uggggggggggh.

The best U2 song is a parody of U2's songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhTMVQuGAdw

Also add me to the club of people who realized movies could be bad thanks to The Master of Disguise and jesus wow that brownface, I totally forgot that was in that movie.
