Also starring Holly Hunter, John Goodman and that badass lone biker of the apocalypse who hunts men for fun.

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.

The absurdly funny bearded fatty known as Zach Galifianakis presents the flat out absurd with Bruce Robinson’s 1987 Brit comedy Withnail & I at The Cinefamily on Fairfax. Part of the Upright Citizens Brigade’s ongoing Comedy Death Ray series.

From The Cinefamily:

“Richard E. Grant gives not only one of the greatest comedic performances on film of the last few decades, but also one of the best on-screen drunks ever in Bruce Robinson’s criminally underseen Withnail & I, which comes to the Cinefamily in a rare 35mm screening, hosted by one of our favorite funny people, Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover)! Grant and Paul McGann breathe boozy, riotous life into the duo of Withnail and Marwood, two out-of-work actors in late ’60s London who decide to take a break from their drug-and-drink-riddled squalor, and head out to the country for some R&R — only to encounter something even more distressing in the form of predatory Uncle Monty (a scene-stealing Richard Griffiths). This cracked classic plays like a big screen version of “The Young Ones” as filtered through the cracked sensibilities of late-era Beatles; alternately funny, creepy and poignant, Withnail & I is pure brilliance.
Dir. Bruce Robinson, 1987, 35mm, 107 min.”

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.

I couldn’t think of a better place to die laughing than the Hollywood Forever Cemetery as Cinespia presents one of the funniest comedies of all time with the Jim Abrahams and Zucker brothers 1980 classic Airplane!

From Cinespia:

“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.”

Okay, stop me if you’ve heard this one before: so Avatar/Star Trek star (Zoe Saldana) and new boobed Superman Returns Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth) walk into a bar where the one time funniest female on the planet (Janeane Garofalo) and fat Heroes guy (Greg Grunberg) are hanging out. The two starlets then go on and proceed to act like Idiots. Two super hot, baby talking, orange juice drinking Idiots. End of story.

The age old question of what a sex and drug addicted piece of Play-Doh does once they’ve run out of sex and drugs to abuse finally get’s answered* in the brilliant stop motion short BLUE: An Erotic Life from talented Parsons graduate student Tibo Charroppin. Check out stills, video and more on Tibo’s thesis production blog here.

Video is extremely NSFW if your boss or co-workers are made of childrens’ clay, otherwise it’s fine.

From Tibo:

“BLUE: An Erotic Life is a stop motion animation that narrates the life story of a blob of clay dealing with sexual addiction. The piece plays on the contrast between graphic adult content and grotesque stop motion. The combination of the two makes for an absurd, dark humored short film.

BLUE: An Erotic Life is my BFA Student Thesis from Parsons School of Design.”

*Spoiler alert: Apparently once they’ve screwed everyone, including themselves, sex and drug addict Play-Doh’s go on to screw millions upon millions of more people as “the official biggest fucker in the nation”.
