Super Cuts and Trash Compactors at the Everything Is Festival!


 
If you live in Los Angeles and you love weird, insane, hilarious underground shit—like, say, the kind of fare you might find on the popular Everything Is Terrible! blog—then the second annual Everything Is Festival! is going to be better than your Christmas, Halloween and birthday combined. It’s the film, video and music festival that feels like a holiday. But a really fucked up holiday in a really fucked up country. Or a fucked up planet. (I was there last year, trust me on this one).

Co-sponsored by Cinefamily, Indie Printing and Everything Is Terrible! there is five solid days of mayhem, carnage and video mischief scheduled from June 30 to July 4.

Let’s take, for instance, the “Super Cuts and Trash Compactors” show. According to Cinefamily programmer Hadrian Belove, a “trash compactor” is “when you take a film and distill it to its essence”:

Cinefamily’s grabbing the zeitgeist by the nutsack and squeezing the video juice out of the YouTube for all of our viewing pleasure! Tonight we celebrate two of our favorite memes in the viral video world: “supercuts” and “trash compactors.” You know, like when TV Carnage cut together every “Gimmie your badge…and your gun” moment from every shitty cop movie ever made, or when FourFour did a mashup of every time someone said “I’m not here to make friends” on a reality TV show — that’s a “Supercut.”

And when that anonymous editor compressed 120 minutes of Wicker Man Nic Cage insanity into a high-powered two-minute H-bomb of hilarity — that’s a “Trash Compactor.”

This show features our favorite pre-existing classics in these two categories, and a group show bursting full of brand-new premieres by Everything Is Terrible, FourFour, Cinefamily’s own Mondo Squad, and more. I tube, you tube, we all tube for YouTube! Tonight’s show features a live appearance by online video mashup maven FourFour!

Watch the now-classic Trash Compactor featuring every dumb pun delivered by Arnold Schwarzenegger’s “Mr. Freeze” in Batman & Robin:

Father's Day


 
Former Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger seems to be just as willing to appear in big money product endorsements in Japan as he is to sire children out of wedlock. Maybe even more so.

There seems to be nothing Arnold won’t lend his name and image to, as you can see in the below video montage, but this new ad, photographed and tweeted by golfer Luke Donald, has got to take the proverbial cake.

Donald’s caption read:

“Not sure wives love surprises Arnie!”

Probably not the kind he’s got in store for them, that’s true.

Below, 30 of Arnold’s Japanese TV ads. Some of these are ridiculously funny. Gets better as it goes on:

Total Recall: The Musical

And in other Governor news…what if Arnold Schwarzenegger from Total Recall sang about his wants, needs, and desires to see the colonies of Mars instead of (sorta) speaking them?  It might look something like Jon and Al Kaplan‘s Total Recall: The Musical.  I do believe it’s a work-in-progress, but the first song from it, The Mountains of Mars, is just now starting to circulate. 

Jon and Al are also the team behind Silence!, the musical version of Silence of the Lambs.  If you’re curious about that project’s standout song, “Put The Fucking Lotion In The Basket,” click here.
