Snorgalicious

Snorg Tees, Gimme These!

Dude, the Snorg Tees Girl is making a real run at being one of Grambo’s Gals for the calendar year 2007. Not only is she teh cuteness, but there’s something about her ability to straddle the line between mystery and ubiquity that appeals to your Uncle Grambo. She’s one to watch, my friends. One to watch!

While we’re talking Grambo’s Gals of posts past, Olivia Munn is still burning up, burning up for my love. To that end, JP McKrengels just unearthed this clip of Munn talking about her favorite Confederate soldier, Colonel Angus. Giggity.

  • The list of things your Uncle Grambo doesn’t understand is long and distinguished (just like my johnson). Near the top of said list is Andrew WK’s emergence as a Keynote Speaker (of sorts). It’s not that I don’t like WK — it’s tough to hate someone whose sole purpose in life is to party hard — it’s just tough to fathom that anyone who has ever seen him speak (as The Grizz, The Senator and your Uncle Grambo did back in November) would describe his freeform QNA sessions as anything other than rambling and incoherent. That said, when WK breaks loose, he REALLY breaks loose. Witness what your Uncle Grambo shot here and here.

Oh yeah, “300″. SO! FREAKING! BEST! You say that it never registered with you on any sort of emotional level? I say SO WHAT! You want to get emotional? Grab a box of tampons and watch Lifetime. But if you want to see a movie described as “Tits. Violence. Anger. Repeat.”, that’s EXACTLY what you’ll get when you see “300.” And how about that Lena Headey (she played the wife of King Leonidas)? She’s got the face of a young Connie Nielsen and the nips of a young Farrah Fawcett (NSFW) … wowzers.

Cutthroat

Most would agree that the primary problem that plagued Gus Van Sant’s shot-by-shot remake of “Psycho” was that it treated the original film with too much reverance. By stripping any sense of fun or originality out of the proceedings, the undoubtedly excellent concept landed in theaters feeling as lifeless as anything you’d find at Madame Tussaud’s.

Fortch for all of us who feel that “The Last Waltz” is the all-time greatest rock doc ever committed to celluloid (with the possible exception of “Stop Making Sense”), director Dave Yonkman successfully avoiding repeating Van Sant’s mistakes by injecting a healthy dose of livelihood into both the storyboarding and shooting phases of “Guster’s Last Waltz.” Developed as promo for the upcoming tribute album dedicated to the work of The Band (due in stores at the end of the month), the Gusters took this opportunity to once again capitalize on the powers of The Internerdâ„¢ to satiate the appetites of their hungry and loyal fanbase.

And as an added bonus to those of you who spent anytime in Ann Arbor, be sure and pay particular attention to the opening scene. It was shot in the legendary 8 Ball Saloon, located in the basement of the Blind Pig. Only Yahweh knows how many cans of Schlitz were consumed and games of darts were lost by your Uncle Grambo there over the years.
