"Aqua Teen Hunger Force" ads trigger bomb scare?

Leave it to National Lampoon...

Jack Bauer vs. the Aqua Teens!

Quite well done, how they mixed up scenes from the last 2 seasons (including Da Valencia Nuke).

And also gotta say, Frylock scares me now.

[Darren Dirt]

Well the release has happened.

And big shock, fans love it and clueless* folks hate it

"In a cinematic landscape where truly original ideas are rarer than floating food, recklessness like this deserves to be appreciated. Not understood, but appreciated."
^ anyone else suddenly *really* want to see this baby in the theatres, surrounded by others laughing non-stop, the same way that "Borat" was absolutely not a "wait for DVD" movie?



one guy said: "I'd like to highlight the bit about the opening sequence. Wait for it on Dailymotion if you must, but it was constructed well enough to make it required viewing."

but another just let the air out of this surrealist/dadaist-loving fan's tires: "Love the Aqua Teens and am ticked to find out they're not releasing this in Canada. WTF? Sure, it's gonna be on dvd in another month but I wanted to see it on the big screen *pout*"

pout indeed.

* except for some non-fans:
"I have no idea what Aqua Teen Hunger Force was talking about, but most of the time, I was laughing too hard to worry. ...Aqua Teen Hunger Force eschews any semblance of logic, convention or narrative in favor of an addictively gleeful anarchy. Everything goes, so long as the results leave audiences laughing and scratching their heads, wondering what could possibly come next."

[Darren Dirt]

Stupid Americans, yes... Sophisticated Canadians NO?!?!

Celebrating one year later, a group of artists installed several LED-based artworks around Boston yesterday.

This is interesting - it seems that a group of artists have celebrated 1-31-07 in their own way and have created a series of political themed LED art sculptures and (you guessed it) placed them all over Boston. Pictured here, Bush & Bin Laden... Click on through to see more images and if you're in Boston the locations are listed to go on an art tour. Get there before the robots do.

Those LED things are the new LEGO, methinks... I WANT!



"Where Were You When..." 

Peter Berdovsky (aka Zebbler or that Dude With the Huge Dreadlocks) sent out an electronic postcard reminding us of the day the city of Boston was felled by an ill-conceived promotional stunt for the "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" movie. Berdovsky and his accomplice-of-sorts, Sean Stevens, appear to have moved on with their lives, but, as shown in the image above, they still can't resist that little electronic critter who gives everyone the finger.

Berdovsky in particular isn't shy of self-promotion and has been trying to make the mooninites work for him. He's starting a record label, named Vermin Street in honor of Boston, and is doing a show at the Good Life on Saturday, March 8. Even if the city would much rather Berdovsky move somewhere else (ahem ... Maureen Feeney ... ahem), it's unlikely that he will.

Meanwhile, look back with us as we remember when the Mooninites fell to earth, the mayor and the governor fought the Cartoon Network (and won), and Berdovsky and Stevens gave the media something they'd never forget.

Feel free to share in the comments--where were you when the Mooninites attacked?

Too funny

Hard to believe it's been 10 years already

To celebrate I watched the movie while I was coding this morning

[Darren Dirt]

Concentrating on code minutiae while that messed up story plays in the background?
