Snark, Critic and Pop!

Look for founding Snarp Cripple Pop member Tom Stephens popping pills!

Do remember to give generously, this crisis has affected at least one friend of Daniel and mine who is a vice president for a Fortune 500 company.

I’m intrigued by this more than any of the other 484 comic book movies opening this Summer.  Still, there’s a fair chance this could blow.  But let’s hope. 

Also, I gotta say: Man, how’d they get that same guy from the Star Trek trailer to be in this?  That John F. Kennedy guy will work for anybody! (continue reading…)

. . . To Jet Li in the Expendables.  According to auteur Sylvester Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme turned down a role in the Expendables because he did not want to lose to Jet Li.  Stallone said:  “I wanted to set Jean-Claude against Jet Li, but he didn’t want to lose to Jet. He didn’t think that was cool.”

Although it would be awesome to see JCVD get schooled by Jet Li, this is good news for everyone.  If you don’t care for the Muscles from Brussels, Van Damme’s not in the movie, and you’re a winner.  For the Van Damme fans, if you read between the lines properly, you will be glad to discover this means Van Damme saved his money and can turn down a decent job offer.  Kudos to you and your sound financial advisor, Van Damme!

Must be read to be believed:

“I have a fascination with fish, birds, whales – sentient life – insects, reptiles.” (continue reading…)

My friend and co-worker Brian Alterman mentioned recently that if he was technically savvy enough, he’d make a particular gif from a particular film.  Using Snark Critic Pop’s propriety research software (a.k.a. Google) I came across a website called http://www.gifsoup.com which lets you create your own in mere minutes.  So, Brian, happy birthday: (continue reading…)

The truth is out. Do not continue if you don’t want your view of Madonna’s perfection corrupted.

It’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Something Or Other!  See the sample here, sadly no embedding.  But I can embed a “best of” one of the other Potters that’s been Riffed: (continue reading…)

See the article here.  I wonder what a Pac-Man movie would look like.  Would it be a riveting ghost story?  The tale of a lonely yellow dot and his pursuit of Ms. Pac-Man?  How fruit can give you power over the dark forces of the universe?  I wonder what bizarre and amusing Youtube videos I can find on the subject to kill time before this terrible idea is made into a real, big-budget movie.  Hmmmmm . . .

To celebrate, the best of Rifftrax, Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith
