Hollywood’s Newest Blockbuster Is My Little Pony?

Posted 5/08/2009 5:30 am by Ron Hogan

Obviously this isn’t a real movie trailer, just a spoof. But is there any time where movie trailers deserve spoofing more than in the summer action season? I mean, these are some of the biggest, dumbest movies you’ll see all year. Don’t you think that if someone could figure out a way to turn My Little Pony into My Little Pwny we’d have already gotten a big screen treatment? Those guys over at Secret Sauce TV are geniuses!

This is a dead-on spoof of the Transformers 2 trailer, as well as the Transformers/GI Joe phenomenon of turning iconic 80’s cartoons into live-action bonanzas. Personally, I can’t wait for when Hollywood turns Three’s Company into a martial arts action flick starring Ryan Reynolds, Scarlett Johannson, and Milla Jojovich. (Actually, having said that, that movie sounds awesome and I look forward to being the first in line to see it, but only if they get Donald Sutherland to play Mr. Furley.)

    XKCD Loves The Internet

    Posted 2/08/2010 10:30 am by Ron Hogan

    It’s one of my favorite XKCD strips of all time:  XKCD Loves The Discovery Channel.  And now it’s come to life in what has to be the ultimate tribute to the Internet thanks to Olga Nunes, featuring puppets, Neil Gaiman, Wil Wheaton, Cory Doctrow, Miss Cellania, Google Zurich, and pretty much everyone of any importance […]

    Super Bowl Ads Get Pantsless And Weird

    Posted 2/08/2010 6:30 am by Ron Hogan

    During last night’s Super Bowl, there was one really disturbing trend that emerged.  There were a lot of guys without pants on.  From the sumo wrestlers in their mawashis to an extremely casual Friday ad from pants company Dockers, this was the year of being sans pantaloons for a lot of Super Bowl advertisers.  I […]

    Anatomy Of A News Report

    Posted 2/02/2010 10:30 am by Ron Hogan

    Everyone who has ever seen the news is vaguely familiar with the formula of how a standard news piece is put together.  When it’s not a breaking news story, just something they want to push a report on, there’s a pretty standard template of how to do it.  Newswipe, a BBC Four TV news satire […]

    Taylor’s Broken Grammy

    Posted 2/02/2010 6:00 am by Ron Hogan

    You know, I’m really surprised this sort of thing doesn’t happen all the time.  The media loves to have people pose with their arms full of awards.  For example, after her four Grammy wins yesterday, Taylor Swift dutifully paraded around with her four Grammys in her arms.  Then, a combination of her nervousness and the […]

    Pee-wee Herman’s New iPad

    Posted 2/01/2010 6:30 am by Ron Hogan

    This is great.  Pee-wee Herman is all excited about his new iPad, only to get dragged down to earth by his friends at the Playhouse, who point out just how non-revolutionary the Apple iPad has turned out to be.  If you’re a fan of the old Pee-wee’s Playhouse, or if you’re just not a follower […]

    Walmart’s Funniest Commercial Ever

    Posted 1/25/2010 7:00 am by Ron Hogan

    This is quite possibly the funniest commercial I’ve ever seen.  Shockingly, it’s for big-box retail megagiant Walmart.  Not only do they own everything, and make more money than most of the world’s countries, now they’re also making some of the best ads to hit television.  When I saw this one during the AFC Championship Game, […]

    The Jay Leno/Conan O’Brien/NBC situation is getting a lot of publicity and news coverage.  From Coco’s Craigslist solicitation on, it’s just getting stranger and stranger.  However, there’s nothing stranger than this weird Chinese news cartoon from NMA News about the situation.  From the people who brought you the amazingly weird Tiger Woods reenactment, here’s another […]

    Microwaving Wine Boxes Is A Bad Idea

    Posted 1/19/2010 6:00 am by Ron Hogan

    Recently, I had a pretty dangerous experience.  I took a piece of china that I had assumed was microwave safe, and put it in the microwave.  In case you can’t tell by the set up, the china is actually old enough, or fancy enough, to have a metal lip around the plate.  So, what I […]

    The game between the Minnesota Vikings and Dallas Cowboys was pretty much over from the very beginning.  Dallas fumbled.  Dallas missed a field goal.  The Vikings scored on a 45-yard touchdown bomb from veteran quarterback Brett Favre to Sidney Rice.  By that time, it was clear that the game was going to be decided and […]

    If you were shopping for Gatorade in Longmont, Colorado today, you might have sensed something was a bit amiss.  Gatorade, long represented by Tiger Woods, was the target of an unusual art project.  Well, the creator calls it pop art; the Food and Drug Administration may call it tampering or adulteration.  Over 1000 bottles of […]

    Wake Up With The Death Metal Rooster

    Posted 1/13/2010 7:00 am by Ron Hogan

    It’s been called the Death Metal Rooster.  While some birds have golden pipes, making beautiful music with their songs, this is a creaky old chanticleer with a throat like a finishing nail being dragged across a rusted out rain barrel.  That horrible croaky crow actually makes it significantly more awesome, because singing badly and loudly […]
