Walton vs. Ferrell

Oh snaps, everyone’s favorite douchebag announcer/father/old-school baller Bill Walton took his gargantuan facial features and got schooled by Will Ferrell. Don’t tell us Ferrell’s good at dodging fans, AND shooting the perimeter? [Dogs That Chase Cars]

Ripoff Gondry?

Did Gondry watch an old Nickelodeon show and use that idea to make Be Kind, Rewind? I seriously doubt it, but good work digging this up ‘Cole. Did we mention she’s our newest blog to read daily? Bookmark and enjoy kiddos! [This Is CyNicole]

12 Rounds vs. The Oscars

Probably the closest you’d get to an SRO live blogging of the Academy Awards. Also, why aren’t more of you pissed that Fincher didn’t get shit for Zodiac? [Skeet On Mischa]

Crash Course In Comics

Since so many movies are now hitting the Comic Book shelves for inspiration, for once in your life get ahead of the curve and check out Whitney Matheson’s 4-part series on Comics. It’s written by a girl, so no one has an excuse not to take a gander and learn something. [Pop Candy]

Music: An Appreciation

I think this is what most music blogs started out as or aspired to, until ad revenue and cool points came into the picture. More than that though, Moka is all about art and taking a smart stance. “For the Sake of the Song” is just one example of many posts that more than qualify as a quality read. Also, they just graduated to ‘.com’ status, so congrats on that Bubbachups and Squashed. [Motel De Moka]

Oscar Winning Stripper

Diablo Cody isn’t joking when it comes to her ex-stripper status. Do you really think she cares that we’ve seen her ‘trophies’? [Egostastic]
