Here is a new Subaru ad it features:
1. An Irish-American Family
2. Midget Hockey
3. One of the kid hockey players being sent to the penalty box, because hockey goons are awesome.
4. The song "If I Should Fall From Grace with God" by the goddamned Pogues.
The only way this ad could be more directed at me is if one of the kids was wearing an Aquaman T-Shirt, the second kid was played by a Muppet, and the third kid was played by Conan O'Brien.

But really. Stop everything you are doing and read this amazing review of Zookeeper: by Lindy West, a critic who makes me damned proud to be an American. Here is a quote from it to convince you of its awesomeness and worthiness of your time:
There was no press screening of Kevin James's new movie, Zookeeper, in time for print. So, instead, I interviewed this fart.
Hello, fart! Nice to meet you!
Brrrrrrrrrrrfffff.
Oh stop! Likewise. Really. No, please. Call me Lindy.
Frp. Frrrp.
Seriously Read the rest of this article, I'm not sure what else I could do to convince you at this point. If you don't like the idea of a critic satirically interviewing a fart, you then that is where you and I part ways.
(via: Filmdrunk, the blog which also refuses to call this movie anything but: Paul Blart: Zookeeper. A title I encourage you to try to make viral.)
We bought some more storage space on Podomatic a few months ago. They gave us this snazzy official website: HourOfThunder.podomatic.com
and we now have space to repost the old episodes we had to delete, look for more in the coming weeks.
Thor's Hour of Thunder: Episode 3: Tokyo Drift
Here is the long lost Episode 3 of The Hour of Thunder.
In this Thor and Baldr probably discusses geeky pop culture but Thor didn't bother labeling this episode.
I (thor) re-listened to part of it, and discovered that we talk about: Zombieland, woody harrelson, twinkies, Hostess, sno-balls, snow balls, penguins, Giant Chicken, Boba Fett, Something Something Something Dark Side, Family Guy, Peter Griffen, Giant Chicken Boba Fett, Star Wars Prequels, Star Wars Prequels are terrible, Its a trap, Return of the Jedi, Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Seth Macfarlane, sarlacc, Rancor, colonel sanders, 5th Element, Bruce Willis, Chris Tucker, Harland David "Colonel" Sanders, Harland Sanders, Rush Hour, Rush Hour 2, Rush Hour 3, Jackie Chan, Shanghai Knights, Shanghai Noon, Who Am I?, Netflix, Church of Flying Spaghetti monster, Video Killed the radio star, Technology, Files are inside the computer, Zoolander, Norse Gods, Thor, God of thunder, Thor God of thunder, Neil Gaiman, Long Dark Tea Time of the soul, Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, Svlad Cjelli, American Gods, Douglas Adams, loki.
This isn't really an ad, but I dug this talking manatee plush toy:
While this toy seems very cute and educational, I'm sad they didn't get Jim Gaffigan to voice the manatee, since one of his most famous stand up bits is about the animals.
(here is that bit below, the whole thing is funny, but the manatee part starts 1:30 into the video.)
This stuffed animal, as well as a bunch of other stuff is for sale at SaveTheManatee.org , with the profits going to help manatees. Buy something over there if you feel like helping this pudgy little buggers out. I actually first heard about this charity through Jim Gaffigan who used to plug it on his website years ago.
Anyway, this was more of an ad for manatees than anything else. It would have been a lot more amusing if by that I meant an ad marketed towards manatees. so I will end this post with how that might go down:
Are you an aquatic herbivores that eats 50 pounds of plants a day?
Getting sick of the same old, wet, vegetables day after day?
King Kong vs. Godzilla vs. Thor vs. Balder vs. Hogan vs. Freyja vs. Predator vs. Aliens vs. Terminator vs. Marvel vs. Capcom vs. Bambi
Remember if you would prefer to listen to this while looking at viking pigs, we still have the official site over at hourofthunder.podomatic.com
