Seth Galifianakis, filling in for his twin brother Zach, puts his own spin on Between Two Ferns when he sits down to speak with the always chatty Sean Penn as they discuss pugs with sailor hats, the Oscars and, of course, Six Flags Haiti.
More of the funny stuff with Zach Galfianakis, chairs, plant life and the occasional obnoxious buzzer:
On last night’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, the country’s most trusted newscaster borrowed a page from Glen Beck’s faulty Fox playbook and once again took to the chalkboard to give us exactly one million reasons why Fox News may not be as “fair and balanced” as they claim to be. Shocker.
It’s a hot as hotcakes hump day in LA today, but at least you’re not working in an Alabama music store as Youtuber extraordinaire averyellis can attest to. Be thankful. Be very, very thankful.

Apologies for the extremely late non-post today. I had absolutely no time for anything else but to get the final edit prepped for the birthing of the latest film made by our Beautiful Losers/Sister Corita film crew about the small down-on-it’s-luck town-but-on-the-rebound Braddock, Pennsylvania (you may have already seen Levi’s “We Are All Workers” ad campaign posted up in your town). Details on the IFC September premiere coming soon!
So as I was saying, sorry for not having the power of blogging today fortunately for me Arnold Schwarzenegger is filled with the power of the Dark Side as some of the Governor’s most memorable, and foul-mouthed, movie quotes are cleverly edited into James Earl Jones’ iconic Darth Vader scenes from the original Star Wars.
“An earlier casting of Star Wars IV: A New Hope saw Arnold Schwarzenegger put a juvenile, jealous and rather perverted spin on Darth Vader’s explosive personality. George Lucas had second thoughts and cast James Earl Jones instead. Enjoy these exclusive clips from the “lost tapes” archives of Skywalker Ranch.
For those still pondering the impossible dreamscape Christopher Nolan and crew concocted, here’s a nifty infographic that visually breakdowns the movie’s rise (starting in the flight from Sydney to Los Angeles) and fall (the van crashing over the bridge for that final kick). Via deviant artist dehahs.
Also…(SPOILER!) did the film’s costume designer, Jeffrey Kurland, just drop a massive knowledge bomb on those who maintain the film’s open ended-ness? He recently stated that “the children’s clothing is different in the final scene…look again…” leading many to believe that Cobb (DiCaprio) was indeed not dreaming that final scene. Read the entire interview from our pals at The Playlist who boldly go the extra movie mile.
What do you get when you put two of the funniest people on the planet between two ferns? Why you get Steve Carrell saying, “fuck you, fatty” to Zach Galifianakis in the latest installment of Between Two Ferns of course. And…scene.
Also…it just so happens that the film Dinner for Schmucks starring both Steve Carrell and Zach Galifianakis along with Paul Rudd opens this weekend. Coincidence? Yes.
See more awkward awesomeness Between Two Ferns with Zach and his “friends”:
“The one that started it all! Wild, wacky and downright hilarious, Airplane is a brilliant send-up of 70s disaster films told in an endless stream of jokes. When the pilots of a plane become ill, the passengers only hope lies with an ex- army pilot, who’s terrified of flying. Loved for generations, Airplane is still one of the funniest movies ever made! With special guest star Kareem Abdul Jabaar. Join us under the skies for this classic screening. DJ Jun spins before and after the movie.”

Are the sounds of Inception still mesmerizing your mind as much as the storyline? Those booming horns haunting you while you’re awake and asleep? They are for me most definitely but mostly because I made those blaring horns from the track “Dream is Collapsing”(at 1:35) my iPhone ringer (fortunately I’m a big dork and my editing abilities aren’t just limited to film).
“Nolan’s script, Zimmer said, offered clues as to how the musicians should dig beneath the surface of the characters. The charged symphonic brass of Piaf’s “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien” was targeted for use by Nolan yet almost dropped from the film when Marion Cotillard, who starred as Piaf in 2007 film “La Vie en rose,” was cast as Cobb’s wife, Mal. Zimmer, however, said he talked Nolan into keeping the song in the film, arguing that audiences would not be distracted by the connection. Pieces of Piaf’s interpretation of the song were stretched, manipulated and woven into Zimmer’s score.
“The version we had listened to sounded like it had been recorded in the ‘40s in this smokey Parisian cabaret,” said Zimmer of the Piaf song. “There was romantic danger. Once we found the recording, we found it was a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy, and had actually been recorded in the ‘60s. That was actually disappointing. We spent a lot of time to get it back to the way it was the first time we heard it.”
“Ever wonder who would win in a fight between Iron Man and Batman? Well you get to choose in this interactive clash of the billionaires!
There took over 1,000 individual pictures and 3 months of work to complete this project. I will be posting a making of video shortly. Coming soon these figures and this animation will be on display at the Toy and Action Figure Museum.”
