David Tennant as Buckaroo Banzai (in my head) (and other adventures in social networking)
What my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today…
Stephen Colbert
question of the weekend: New Year’s resolutions — love ’em? hate ’em? make ’em and ignore ’em?
Do you make resolutions for the new year? Do you ever keep them? What would you like to resolve to do newly or differently in the new year, even if you know you’re unlikely to actually keep those resolutions?
watch it: Stephen Colbert interviews Neil deGrasse Tyson
Colbert is out of character, deGrasse Tyson is funny and passionate. It’s long but well worth the time…
this Sarah Palin movie poster is not a joke
It sure does look like one, though…
watch it: “Rebecca Black – Friday, as performed by Bob Dylan”
What’s even more interesting than this spoof is the creative comments it’s inspiring at YouTube…
watch it: “Stephen Colbert Sings ‘Friday’ on ‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’”
+1,000,000 Internets to Stephen Colbert.
wtf: Keith Olbermann off the air?!
Is it time to be scared yet?
trailer break: ‘Country Strong’
The title makes me think of WristStrong, Stephen Colbert’s parody charity movement against wrist violence… and what we know about the film so far seems to imply that being country strong means taking strength from jealousy and substance abuse.
“God hates nags”: Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert bring it…
…in a nice, nonconfrontational way. I confess that I wasn’t sure whether more than a handful of rabid Daily Show/Colbert Report fans would turn up for the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear, but the Mall sure looked really packed on TV this afternoon.
why ‘Big’ is depressing; should Roger Ebert retire?; streaming-only Netflix; more: leftover links
Plus: Could Wikileaks have stopped 9/11?; PBS isn’t as progressive as we thought; Hugh Jackman on Wolverine 2; more…
