An Ikea commercial that appears to be Germans making fun of Swedes for being eccentric and weird. Yes, really.

Fictional promo for Elephant!, the Elephant Man musical starring Anthony Newley, Sammy Davis Jr. and Carol Channing. I had been trying to find this on YouTube for years, and finally decided to take matters into my own hands.
Is he a bad elephant, or is he good?

A terribly sad commercial, full of pathos and heartache:
I weep.

This week’s quote is from They Came To Cordura, starring Gary Cooper and Rita Hayworth toward the ends of their careers. I’m pretty sure I’ve used it before, but it’s one of my favorites:
If there’s one piece of truth in your insect soul, I want it!
And, of course, there’ll be other people’s Japanese breakdancing robots…
Who among us does not love Japanese breakdancing robots?

For those of you who have been having trouble following the whole Jay Leno-Conan O’Brien fiasco, perhaps some insane Chinese CGI will help:
Yes. That is exactly how it happened.

Apparently the human brain isn’t upgradable. Shame about the flash memory being so expensive; if Mr. D could have just waited a few more years…

And here is far and away the most insane scene from Skidoo – the entire prison dosed on acid. Singing trashcan music by Harry Nilsson, who I believe is also the guard manning the searchlight.

The late 60s/early 70s were the Golden Age of completely insane, incoherent, psychedelic movies, like Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, Myra Breckinridge, Greaser’s Palace, Zardoz, and… Skidoo, featuring an all-star cast and directed by Otto Preminger, of all people.
Most of the aforementioned all-star cast had the good sense to be embarrassed, but Carol Channing appears to be having the time of her life. Here she is in the second-most insane part of the film, singing the title song while wearing some kind of 18th-century-admiral-in-a-miniskirt outfit:
Have I mentioned that Carol Channing scares the living crap out of me? Also, I would give almost anything for a copy of the mock commercial for an Elephant Man musical starring her and Anthony Newley (”in the role he was born to play”).
