the valenzetti equation is REAL

In Bulgaria, the same six lottery numbers were drawn twice in a row.



The numbers were:

4, 15, 23, 24, 35, and 42.

Emphasis mine.

One wonders: What are the odds?

But you already know what I'm going to say:

Do not mistake coincidence for fate.

the world must know

The other night, while we were waiting for LOST, Phelps mentioned a new NBC show called Community that was to star Chevy Chase.



Curious about Chase's recent activity, I ordered Phelps to connect his computer to my skull to find out his last TV or movie appearance of note that I remembered. We determined that technology would not yet allow such an action, so he used IMDb. 1997's Vegas Vacation was the winner, but we ended up not caring about that once the following sequence of ludicrous discovery was initialized.

Chase is starring in an upcoming (?) 2009 film called Not Another Not Another Movie. The ridiculous title and its spoof-movie-spoof implications seized our full attention.

The IMDb summary:In this non- stop hilarious ride we follow a struggling Movie Studio that is willing to do anything to make a buck even if it means ruining its reputation, and running the Movie Industry into the ground. This film has everything that an audience wants from a LAUGH OUT LOUD COMEDY by taking a no-holds barred attack on the Spoof Genre from Blockbuster Action movies to Dramas and Documentaries to Popular Television shows. --Written by David MurphyI clicked David Murphy's name to see if he had written any other summaries. No dice.

Returning to the IMDb page, we noticed that the film also stars Vinnie Jones, Michael Madsden, and Burt "Cop and a Half" Reynolds.



Additionally, we noticed that the movie was directed by a one David Murphy. I didn't recognize any of his other titles, but I did recognize his name from 30 seconds earlier when I read the IMDb plot summary.

Quick sidebar: Here is the plot summary for his most recent movie, No Bad Days:

Set in the exotic terrain of the Yucatan Peninsula, NO BAD DAYS is an action/adventure film that manifests all the qualities that make for an entertaining and captivating film. The fast-pace style makes for a surprise at every turn, while the charisma and chemistry of the main characters create a romantic subplot. [etc. etc.]
-- Written by Instinct Productions
Guess what production company made No Bad Days.

Back to the more important, possibly most-important-of-all-time movie. We traveled to its official website. Just go there--it's all gold. Make sure to check the "in the news" section.

The movie is about the creation of a spoof movie that spoofs spoof movies. Reynolds plays the actor playing the director in the movie in the movie, and his character is none too pleased about starring in a shoddy spoof spoof.

Later that night, we found the trailer.



I am concerned that Not Another Not Another Movie will be terrible. I was excited about Pauly Shore is Dead, and we all know how that turned out. I wouldn't expect much from a movie like this, either. Regardless, the sky-high concept and ingenious marketing approach is enough to warrant a try, if only so I can be in on the joke.

The only release date the internet has to offer is "2009." We may have already missed it. If not, I hope there's a midnight premiere planned. Because I'll be there.

4/1

rule of the internet - good websites will do something funny on april 1

youtube has a new format, explained here

wikipedia is featuring the Musem of Bad Art and says that
... a team of archaeologists discovered a fossilized Han Solo in the rocks of Chinagoogle has introduced gmail autopilot
(probably nobody remembers this)

the pirate bay has partnered with warner brothers

maddox, who has altered his website thrice previously, didn't do anything because he has jury dury.

college humor has pretended to be taken over by axe, which should not count as a prank

I don't think pitchfork did anything, but they really liked trent reznor's prank

that covers all I can think of offhand.. if you need more, I suppose you can go here.

also, in unrelated news, LOSTpedia says that in a "shockingly quiet press release yesterday," it's been announced that M. Night Shymalan will direct the series finale. that probably means Jack has been dead this whole time, which I KEEP TELLING EVERYONE

update on what I did today forthcoming

culture barometer

Search for something, anything. See where and when people are conducting that same search.
Examples:

Pennsylvania is the state that most often searches for "cheesesteak."


There's a spike in LOST searches right around the premiere and the finale every year.

Infinite possibility!
