I am American bad…
A current teaser trailer for the new G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra movie features the song American Badass by Kid Rock - at least on TV. However, the spot cuts off the syllable ‘ass’ and this is how the clip ends. SO, a movie about American heroes that I believe the producers hope will make all Americans stand up and shout things like “America is the greatest country on earth!” ends with these words: I am American Bad. I think this qualifies as an Epic Fail [link to my favorite].
Below is a clip of the spot - except they must not have Internet rights for the song because they aren’t using it at all in this video:

Can you say how bad/funny/stupid a movie is in 140 characters or less? If so, then maybe MuVchat is for you. Think “Pop-Up Video” for movies in real time with audience participation. Not too far from where I live, this concept is currently being tested.
I admit I am intrigued, but I wonder how long this idea goes before it gets tired. I guess it will depend on the movies chosen and how clever the audience is that participates.
Anyway, kudos to Rien Heald for the idea. Click for his Facebook group page to learn more.

This video makes me think of that amazing American Pscyho scene:
What if?
What if ‘The Watchmen’ were a Saturday morning cartoon produced in the 80s? That is what Harry Partridge wondered - and showed us. CHECK IT OUT. Simply perfect!

Valentine’s Day - Something to do
My wife has suggested to me that my position on Valentine’s Day being only for couples who date and not for married couples is incorrect. As such, I must consider doing something to honor this ‘holiday.’ Luckily, I found this movie which opens on VD:
