Wednesdays are tough. Have a Leia cat.
Dear Internet: I promise to give you amusing Star Wars related photos if you promise to stop spittling “MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU” at me, okay? (via the totally fascinating and not-at-all-porny thisisnotporn.net)
Kenny Baker enjoys lunch on the set of Star Wars.
Mondays are hard, so let’s ease ourselves into it with some retro-style videos, hmm?
First up, last week the Beastie Boys (remember them?) announced a new album and a 30 minute movie called “Fight For Your Right-Revisited”. The trailer for said movie is below. I have no idea what’s happening in it but it seems to star every funny person from the last 15 years and Elijah Wood. They certainly have my attention!
Portlandia is a newish sketch comedy show on IFC that is set in .. wait for it.. Portland. I Believe this video originally came out to promote the show before it premiered.
Watching it made me a little melancholy. The 70s and 80s seem to be recognized for their contributions to culture, but the 90s have been forgotten and they were my time, man. I think the Portlandia folks must feel the same way, because this is kind of a sweet love song for the 90s and Portland.
