Yep, it’s time. Time for Brown Bag Cinema. The only real way to be absolutely certain that it’s Thursday.
Today’s film is a moving oxymoron, a true contrast in moods.
Requiem For a Toy Story : A Mash up of Toy Story and Requiem For A Dream
Good morning and welcome to the day! Here’s the thing, we have finals this week. So, in order to make the study time we invite you to take a trip down Memory Layercake. Here are a few posts you may have overlooked in the flurry of Lohan drunk drama and blank is the new blank posts.
In honor of the dangling carrot that is Summer Vacation , we’ve set the dial on the Layercake Wayback Machine to: Summer 2005
Signs that it’s time to get a job. No, really. It’s time. May 27th, 2005
He did a bad, bad thing. June 25, 2005

Alice Cooper-School’s Out For Summer (Where Summer equals the four weeks before Summer school begins)
Off to study, see you soon…
Nemesises, nemesi? Whatever. Those giant headed, whorish Bratz dolls are coming to life in the form of a live action movie.
Bratz The Movie stars regular, non-animated, non slutty actresses including Paula Abdul who will also produce. Okay. As you can see from the trailer, the movie looks like a really bad Clueless knockoff that with any luck will go directly to DVD.

Question: How does voice-over guy keep from laughing when he reads some of this stuff?
We think the studio could have saved a bunch of cash by just going with this YouTube gem we came across. It’s got the same characters and the same plot, or lack thereof. Throw in a little CGI and there you have it, Bratz, The Movie.
What’s up with “Let’s play Jackass Jr”?
Two things suck about this week:
1) We’re not in Canada
2) We don’t have tickets to the sold out Police tour
In fact we are ticketless for the entire tour. This is quite frankly, an outrage. Favorite. Band. Ever. That’s all we’re going to say about it.

Stewart Copeland, love his smile in this pic.

Seriously great footage from the Whiskey a Go Go show in February, where they officially announced the reunion tour.

You are so lucky you can’t hear us doing our best Amy Winehouse impression while singing that headline. Ok, so Lindsay is headed back to rehab and it’s so sad. We shouldn’t make light of rehab even though it’s the new black. Oh haw sad, poor Linds. Oookaaay, now that that’s out of our system, on with the mockery! You see we have to practice our stickfigure photoshop skillz and someone has to be the victim. Today my friends, that someone is the poster for Lindsay’s box-office floppy flopperson: Just My Luck. Or not as is it were.
We can blur! And clone! Not very well!
We gave Dina a bob, cause we couldn’t get the hair glued on properly. Uh yeah, cause there’s so much glue in Photoshop.
Good morning and welcome back to the work week. Unless you’re not in the United States and you had to work Monday. In that case, sorry we slacked yesterday. Hope you won’t break up with us over it.
On to the crumb cake:
We have three things to say about this video:
1) It is the shit.
2) We kinda want to hang out with the cool kids in the video.
3) Blue t-shirt guy gets the Snarky Hipster Pop Culture Reference T of the Week award.
This is so cool. Take a look at the interior of the new Boeing 747-8. A gym! Luxury suites! Comfy beds! Oh my! Business class looks great, but it just makes coach look worse than ever. We don’t think we could fly coach again, knowing there’s a huge party going on in the sky loft. Better start saving the miles, suddenly the 17 hour flight to Thailand doesn’t seem so daunting.
We found this particular screen shot amusing. Happy ending much? Hmm is prostitution legal… in the sky? We are totally pro-prostitution. Don’t get us started. Or do, in the comments.
Charles Nelson Reilly passed away today of complications from pneumonia, leaving behind his partner Patrick Hughes.
Whether you remember him from his Tony award winning work on Broadway, his hilarious antics on Match Game or maybe you’re just a young pup who only knows of his voice over work in animated films like All Dogs Go to Heaven, Charles Nelson Reilly was always hilarious, charming to watch and immensely talented. Here are a few clips we thought you might enjoy watching. Thanks for the laughs, Charles. What a ride.
A Match Game episode where Charles ended up hosting the show. Hilarious.

The AP reports:
Lohan, 20, and two other people were in her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 when it crashed on Sunset Boulevard around 5:30 a.m., Sgt. Mike Foxen said.
“She was cited and released because she has been admitted to a local hospital for minor injuries,” Foxen said.
No one else was hurt and no other cars were involved, Foxen said. He did not have other details.
Officers went to the scene after receiving a 911 call about the accident, Foxen said.
Lohan will have to appear in court to answer the citation, he said.
The arrest was first reported on the Web site of X17 Inc., a celebrity photo agency.
Lohan publicist Leslie Sloane Zelnik did not immediately return an e-mail requesting comment.
Now that Paris has found God, is Lindsay left to fill those drunk driving Louboutins all by her lonesome? Those are some big shotglasses shoes to fill.
This is brilliant. Sheer genius. Perhaps Fox should come have a look.
