TrashyPantz Movie Review

"Soft mattress? Yeah, it could have been the soft mattress. Or the midnight rape. Or the nude gay art show that took place in my room last night. One of those three probably contributed to the lack of sleep. "

All of the above could only happen in one movie this summer, and only one man could say all that and make you laugh your ass off, and that man is Vince Vaughn in Wedding Crashers. Vaughn's quick talking humor meshes very well with Owen Wilson.

You immediately know where this film is going, but you don't care. The movie begins by getting you right to the point of what John Beckwith (Owen Wilson) and Jeremy Grey (Vince Vaughn) do on their weekends during the summer. And when these 2 crash weddings, they are ballsy. Making speeches, posing in cake cutting pictures, etc.

Christopher Walken plays Senator Cleary, whose daughter is getting married. He is perfect for the role and the minimal lines he delivers are done in that "Walken" way, as are his facial expressions. The ending is as expected for this kind of movie and is a bit weak, but you have laughed a lot by that point, you really don't care.

There are many laugh out loud scenes and the casting for this movie is dead on. I compare the amount of laughs and the length of the laughs of this movie, to that same amount and length of laughs in There's Something About Mary. Granted, this isn't the kind of movie that you have to see in a theater, but there is something to be said about the atmosphere in a movie theater when everyone is laughing and having fun.

However, the worst part of the movie, was the Coke commercial before it, featuring the original Coke song "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" performed by G. Love and Special Sauce. The band has fallen so far from what they once were, it's a shame. And so I shall end this article with another Vince Vaugn quote, if you should happen to see that commercial in the theater or at home, "EARMUFFS!"

Wedding Crashers receives a 4 out of 5 balloon bicycles, CLOWN!

Danbury Cracks Down On Rowdy Volleyball Games
City officials are spiking large-scale volleyball games that have led to tensions with its fast-growing immigrant population.

Danbury has been transformed in recent years with waves of new immigrants from Brazil, Ecuador and other countries. City officials have proposed a law that would curb large-scale volleyball games and other ``repetitive outdoor group activities'' in neighborhoods.

TrashyPantz movie review:

The Obsession rating for the week must now be adjusted.
Last night I went to see Charlie & The Chocolate Factory in IMAX.
Sat relatively close to the screen, but it was great, it was like I was surrounded by chocolate and candy the whole time, it was all i could see in my peripheral vision! It was a dream come true.

For all of you who think that Tim Burton was trying to do a remake of the original, he has not. What Tim Burton has done is made a new movie from the book. Of course the characters are the same, but the way that Willy Wonka is portrayed is very different, and how each child ends up up leaving the factory tour are the same, but you learn more about Willy Wonka's upbringing and his family and you also learn where the Oompa Loompas come from.
Speaking of Oompa Loompas, there are 165 of them in the movie, all played by one actor, Deep Roy. Each Oompa Loompa, however, was shot individually. He was a very busy man on the set!
The Oompa Loompas are more modernized in their outfits, but this fits into the movie perfectly.
Some highlights from the movie:
Great songs and dancing by the Oompa Loompas.
No scary tunnel song!!!!!!
Much better looking candy meadow and chocolate river!
I wanted to eat every Wonka Bar i saw in the movie, they looked scrumptuos!
Johnny Depp creates a Willy Wonka with issues, but he somehow seems nicer and more into candy than the Gene Wilder's Wonka.

These are just a few highlights from the movie, the rest you should see for yourself.
The casting, the effects, the music, are all great and original. This is by far the most colorful TIm Burton to date! I highly recommend getting some candy before you go into the movie, because you will get the urge for some about 30 minutes into the movie . I was jonesing for some Sour Patch kids like you don't even KNOW!

TrashyPantz gives Charlie & The Chocolate Factory 5 out of 5 WONKA BARS!
(and one NEW Ooompa Loompa thrown in for good measure!)

My New Obsession

As of right now, this Land Rover Sport is my new obsession...
However, i am going to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in IMAX tomorrow, so that movie may become my new obsession, but for now, we will stick with the new Range Rover Sport.

I am not an SUV person at all, but if forced to have one, this would be it. Orange and fast! The interior is designed like a cockpit and has an intergrated phone system, GPS and is equiped with Harmon Kardon speakers in all sorts of places!!

A full review of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory will be posted on Thursday and Obsession stats will be revised, if necessary.

Leaner 'Rock Star' is still a stumbler

courtesy of MediaLife:

It was a gamble for CBS to schedule an unproven reality show on three nights a week, and now the network is paying. It shaved “Rock Star” from 60 supersized minutes last week to a half hour last night, and based on last night’s ratings that was a good decision. “Rock Star” averaged a 2.5 adults 18-49 rating, according to Nielsen overnights, fumbling a quarter of its 3.3 “Two and a Half Men” lead-in. “Rock Star” was about even to last week’s 2.4 premiere rating, though that was over an entire hour. The network had hoped that “Rock Star” would be at least the next “Big Brother,” which also airs on three nights. But after it fell to a 2.1 rating for last Wednesday’s elimination episode, CBS knew things were grim. “Rock Star” finished second in its timeslot last night, 26 percent behind timeslot leader “Hell’s Kitchen” on Fox.

Summer rock 'n roll reality romp tanks hard

courtesy of MediaLife:

CBS may be regretting that decision to schedule three episodes of “Rock Star” per week right now.
Yesterday’s premiere of the new reality show averaged only a 2.4 adults 18-49, according to Nielsen overnights. The show struggled opposite Fox’s moderate hit “Hell’s Kitchen” in the 9 p.m. timeslot, where “Kitchen” averaged a 3.2.
“Kitchen” even finished ahead among total viewers with 6.5 million, while “Rock Star” averaged just 5.6 million.
Now CBS is stuck with Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday competition and results episodes of what looks to be yet another reality clunker, albeit a highly pedigreed one. The show is produced by “Survivor’s” Mark Burnett.
“Rock Star” performed worse than two other CBS reality premieres this summer. “Big Brother” averaged a 3.4 last week and “Fire Me, Please” debuted with a 3.3 last month.
It did perform better than the debut of the network’s “The Cut,” which averaged a 2.1.
The show, with surprisingly winning host Dave Navarro, showed 15 contestants competing to become the new lead singer for popular '80s band INXS.
After one contestant messed up her lyrics and another mangled Bob Dylan's "Knockin' on Heaven's Door," the latter got the first boot. But viewers will get to vote on some future ejections.

The 1st Ever TrashyPantz Boycott

For all that is good and holy, and as a child of the 80's, I am begging and pleading that all friends and readers of TrashyPantz boycott the new CBS show Rock Star INXS.
The show is a contest to find the new lead singer of INXS, the original lead singer, Michael Hutchence, killed himself in November 1997.

Here is how CBS explains it:
"Rock Star:INXS" is a show about a lot of things. It's about a group of young musical artists trying to fulfill their dreams. It's about the joy of performance and the difficulty of competition. But most of all, it's about finding the next incarnation of one of the greatest rock bands in history."
BAH! GARBAGE, I SAY!

I mean, you can't just replace Michael Hutchence! INXS last played at the opening of the Sydney's Olympic Stadium and used singer Terence Trent D'Arby for that appearance (You can't replace Michael Hutchence with a one hit wonder who takes 10 hours to have his hair briaded by 4 women, and expect to do justice to Suicide Blonde. It's just not possible).

The irony in all this, is one of the contestants names is... DANA. This makes me extremely angry, by the way. So once again, for all that is good in the world, and for all the reasons I still cling to this 80's band...please, PLEASE watch something else, anything else, when this show starts this summer. THANKS!!!!

The Best Man Speech Drinking Game

The Best Man Speech Drinking Game, version Gunn/List

Rumor has it that the Kenny is a bit nervouse about his Best Man Speech for the Gunn/List nuptuals, so Roach, Silent and I have developed a drinking game to go along with Kenny's speech to ease OUR nerves when he goes up there!

Pete: 1 drink
Emily: 1 drink
Son: 2 drinks
Tampa: 4 drinks
Happy: 1 drink
Oswego: 2 drinks
iPod: 2 drinks
Laptop: 1 drink
Hooker: 5 drinks
Florida: 3 drinks
Rolllaaaas: 3 drinks
Woodshed: 2 drinks
OOOOH...My stomach: 4 drinks

The speech is HOW long??

Under 30 seconds: 10 drinks of whatever is in your hand
30 second to 1 minute: Go to the bar and get yourself a drink with hard liquor in it
1 minute to 2 minutes: Mr. Bartender, make that ON THE ROCKS.
2 minutes to 3 minutes: On second thought, make that a shot.
Over 3 minutes: Meet behind the foundry for illegal substances with a co-creator of this game.

He did WHAT before the speech?

1-3 Tums: 1 drink 4-6 Tums: 2 drinks
Chugging Mylanta: 3 drinks
Breaks out the heating pad: Shots. Immediately.

Good Luck to all that play along! Now it's all up to Kenny to decide how drunk we get!
Best of Luck to K Dawg! We know you will do great at your speech!!!

Bo Bice, My Heart Will Go On

courtesy of gawker.com



I don’t know about you kids, but professional obligations (read: keeping up to speed so I could tell you what to talk about at the water cooler today) forced me to view last night’s America Idol finale, in all two hours of its gay glory. And to what end? To see Bo Bice get flat-out ROBBED in favor of Kelly Clarkson, Jr.?! If this is a nation that can elect George W. Bush for a second term, certainly we could have had our shit together just enough to let a former cokehead make good on his promise to God that he’d clean up and be king of the musical puppets.
But no. No, you had to go and vote for Carrie Underwood and her innocent, crimpy hair. Oh, so she’s sweet. She sings country. She’s from Oklahoma. She’s a good ol’ girl. She’ll lose the weight and wear sexy eye makeup and have some hit singles. That’s all fine and nice, but need I remind you that Bo had Lynyrd Skynyrd on his side? You don’t mess with Southern rock, America. You crossed the Skynyrd, and now you’re going to pay.

Love me some Slurpee

For those of you that don't know... I am a huge fan of the 7-11 Slurpee(that's what you get for growing up in NJ).
This website is dedicated to the 7-11 Slurpee and the Brain Freeze that quickly ensues, as well as other useless Slurpee facts.

The Brain Freeze

**On a side note... I once left a half drank slurpee in the cup holder of rental car, which was parked in a garage for three days in a hotel garage. When I checked out of the hotel and got in the car, the slurpee ate through the cup it was in and melted slurpee liquid had filled the cup holder! Scary!

I'm mentally ill, Bitch!

Last night Entertainment Weekly revealed that comedian Dave Chappelle, he of the $50 million deal from Comedy Central, has been in a mental health facility since late April. Given various reports of Chappelle’s off-kilter behavior around town, this development is more saddening than it is surprising. What is surprising, however, is that Chappelle’s mental health facility of choice is in South Africa.

The same source denies rumors of drug abuse. Other sources have also told Entertainment Weekly that the future of Chappelle's Show — the hit Comedy Central series that was entering its third season — is more uncertain than the network has suggested.

Comedy Central last week made a hasty announcement that the show's third season, already delayed from its planned February start, had been postponed again. The network said it remained ''optimistic'' that production could resume. The highly rated sketch series has been a huge moneymaker for Viacom, which owns Comedy Central. Its second season is about to be released on DVD, on the heels of first-season sales that made it the top-selling television DVD in history.

Thanks in large part to the DVD sales, Chappelle last year netted a $50 million deal for co-writing and starring in the show. Sketches to fill about four episodes in the third season have been taped, but Chappelle's interstitial material with live audiences has not. The fate of the sketches has not been determined.

Ugli Stop & Shop

I really did see this at my Stop & Shop Supermarket.

I mean, if you are trying to get rid of ugly fruit, you need to at least spell the word ugly right, and not charge $1.99 each! Ugly things should be free, although the girl at the bar at the end of the night cost you the price of 5 beers.

BAM! TAPAS!

MMMMMM....Tapas... Emeril style of course.

Dan and I had the chance to see a taping of Emeril Live! in March, and the episode is airing this Sunday, Monday and next week as well! Dan and I were sitting in the front row, right next to one of the tall tables where everyone ELSE got to try tasty tapas! Don't know how much we will be on TV, but Dan was standing right where Emeril came in. And if we we look really, really interested in what he is doing, it's becuase we were starving. As the saying goes, don't go food shopping when you are hungry...Don't go to a taping of Emeril hungry. Hope you can tune in!
