I'm sure many of you may have seen these before. If you have then this post is not for you. May I suggest skipping to one of my other fine posts below. (My posts are all quite wonderful if I do say so myself, and I don't.) If you haven't seen these before then head on over to Mark Jenkin's site and see the rest.
Delightfully odd.
Subtle.
Delicious.

This is a pretty funny follow up to another video that you can find here. (Warning: Strong language is used. So I wouldn't put the speakers up real loud at work. Well, unless you are a prick. In that case feel free.)
In 2004 I went to see a Zack Snyder film called Dawn of the Dead. It was a remake of a George Romero film about zombies overtaking a mall. I was very excited because, A. I love zombies and B. I love zombies. I was not the only person that was excited. The theater was packed. Right as the movie was about to begin, the most excited person in the whole theater entered and took a seat. A zombie and gore loving baby had joined the show, along with it's two very respectable parents. I know the baby loved zombies and gore because it screamed and laughed throughout the entire film. There was even a little zombie baby in the film for it to relate to. The baby was the loudest when the zombies tore into the entrails of an unfortunate soul. I'm sure the parents looked down and smiled as they thought 'this is a baby that loves zombies.'
Flash forward three years later. I sit down to see another Zack Snyder film, 300. This film is about 300 Spartan warriors fighting in slow motion against countless hordes of Persian forces. Right as it is about to begin, another baby that loves hardcore violence joins the show. It's two very respectable parents sat alongside it while it screamed at all the vicious action.
It was as the credits rolled and Zack Snyder's name appeared on the screen that I connected the two events in my head. I came to the conclusion that babies love hardcore violent action. And nothing adds to an R-rated movie more than screaming babies. Its an atmospheric quality that is lacking in many films. So I guess I will just have to wait until Watchmen to see if the Zack Snyder-loving-baby streak continues.
(Seriously, I know it's hard to raise a kid but here is a suggestion...Hire a babysitter or rent the DVD.)
You premiere a show in the middle of well established seasons, when people already have routines of what they are watching, and you expect them to flock in droves to your new show? And then you cancel that show after 4 episodes, even knowing that some of the biggest shows in the history of television have had slow building viewership in their first seasons?
You put shows on hiatus for weeks and yet you expect people not to completely forget about a show they once loved? And you do this to hype week long runs of some reality dumb reality show that people will get over saturated with by the second viewing?
Why are you shooting yourselves in the foot? You are killing television.
PS. Here is Nathan Fillion in a kilt, just because.
