Thor's Hour: 25th Episode Anniversary Spectacular!: Fear and Loathing In Casino Night Zone

Cowboys & Aliens was hyped to be the next Transformers/ Iron Man/ Elvis Haloha From Hawaii, instead it lost its opening weekend to "Smurfs". Bladr reviews the film, and we both discuss what what wrong with the marketing and what caused the film's bad buzz.

Also Sorry for the gag between episodes, Thor spent the last two weeks learning the art of banzai tree horticulture, and Baldr spent the last 3 weeks recording a punk/funk rock album with Conan O'Brian playing lead guitar, Baldr playing key-tar and bass saxophone and the Coked-Up Werewolf on lead vocals.

Why so serv-ious?

(sent via cellphone)

This seems like some kind of hallucination,

but appears to actually exist. Here is a short film of Slyvester Stallone meeting and talking to Rocky. As in Rocky, the character he himself plays, not the flying squirrel. Its rare that something would be less weird if it involved an 80's action movie star talking to an animated flying squirrel, but this is definitely one of those times.



Seriously, what the hell was that?

myspace

I never got into myspace, and its all but completely irrelevant now, but I was glad to discover that they have an excellent error message page:

Guggenheimlich maneuver

Sorry for the blurriness. I took this photo on an old A train car which is from the 1960's so it swayed from side to side a lot (if this blog was called "strictly subway car history" I would point out that I think this old car type is still the best NYC subway car design and they should start building them again.)

Anyway, this ad shows Manhattan if only central park was the area with buildings. Which is a cool piece of art.

The ad is for a Guggenheim exhibit that is for some reason not going on at the Guggenheim. I'm not sure why they are choosing to not have this exhibit at their giant round museum. Maybe they ran out of space because they decided to have 90 percent of the Guggenheim be a huge empty atrium. Or maybe they had to close the Gugg for repairs again because Clive Owen shot the living shit out of it again:

Harold and Kumar 3D

Fuck yes!

 Harold and Kumar are the Bob Hope/Bing Crosby road films of the 21st century. Neil Patrick Harris is the goddamned man. And I'm glad to see the actor who played the geeky asian guy from Princeton in the first film is back for this one. He is a really funny comedian/comic actor and did a really great segment where he interviewed Kal Penn and John Cho on the DVD for "Go to White Castle"
