An Interview with Ghislain Poirier from Maga Bo on Vimeo.



The latest in a series of mini-docs done by self described transnational bass artist Maga Bo. Previous installments include quick chats with Diplo, Daniel Haaksman, DJ/Rupture and more. All really great watches. That seems like a bit of an awkward phrase to us, but we don’t really know how else to put it. Anyway, check out the vids here. And thanks to the fader Attorney Street for the heads up.

GAY-THAM FOR STATHAM

taken from the Patton Oswalt myspace blog...


GAY-THAM FOR STATHAM
Jason Statham has never been in a great movie.

He's also never been in a boring one.

Statham's imdb.com profile, collectively, is a promise to you, the weary filmgoer. It's a promise that says, "I promise that you will not FOR ONE SECOND be bored during one of my movies. You won't learn shit about the human condition, or feel a collective connection with the brotherhood of man. But if you give me $10, I will fuck an explosion while a Slayer song plays".

I just watched CRANK on Showtime, and I can't understand how I missed this when it was in theaters.

I'm buying THE BANK JOB and DEATHRACE on iTunes today. After CRANK, Mr. Statham can count on my $10 every time he makes a movie. If someone figures out how to make a movie for $8, and it stars Jason Statham, then they're guaranteed a $2 profit.

I look forward to any new film by Ang Lee, David Gordon Green, Paul Thomas Anderson, The Coen Brothers, Paul Greengrass or Ross McElwee.

And now, Jason Statham. I don't know how much say he has in the films he makes. But I get the impression that he reads the scripts. And if the script doesn't make him want to drive a bulldozer through a cake store, I'll bet he punches the script through a wall.

In fact, my entire stack of Academy screeners would have been vastly improved by the addition of Jason Statham. Here we go:

CHANGELING: Jason Statham plays the kidnapped boy, who immediately beats his kidnappers to death, then fights female assassins on top of a blimp.

CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON: Jason Statham injects the backward-aging man-freak with a Sino/Chilean rage compound, and they fight in lava pit.

DEFIANCE: Jason Statham throws Hitler into a woodchipper, eats the entrails as they fly out the other end, and then shits out Winston Churchill.

DOUBT: Jason Statham drop-kicks the Pope through the core of the Earth, and the Pope's head goes up Meryl Streep's ass and then Motorhead's "The Ace of Spades" plays.

FROST/NIXON: Jason Statham pulls off David Frost's skin, drops him into a tank of sea salt, and then Statham and Nixon rent a limo and drive across country, shotgunning hippies.

GRAN TORINO: Jason Statham glowers at Clint Eastwood, who glowers back, creating a Glower Vortex which destroys the planet.

THE READER: Statham kills the teenage kid with a lawnmower, then fucks Kate Winslet literate.

REVOLUTIONARY ROAD: Jason Statham drives an 18-wheeler full of nitro into the title suburb, blows everything to shit, and then spends 90 minutes hunting down absolutely everyone involved with the making of this film, beating them to death with TV trays.

THE WRESTLER: Jason Statham, Richard Nixon, the 'roided-out Benjamin Button murder-freak, the Churchill feces-baby and Mickey Rourke drive cross country in a limo, with Leo DiCaprio's severed head on the hood, where they crash the Spirit Awards and kill everyone.


There you go. Statham! Full disclosure: I saw Jason Statham eating a salad at Joan's on 3rd, here in L.A. Really, I did. I wanted to say hello, but he seemed like he could chuck an arugula leaf through my skull.

Do yourselves a favor, Academy voters. CRANK 2: HIGH VOLTAGE comes out April 19th. On April 20th, rescind all the voting categories. There should be one statue given out next year -- a 45-foot, sentient Oscar kill-bot, which Jason Statham will fight to the death at the next ceremony.



Statham! Yell it when you're fucking!

FRODUS REUNION>>>>

wtf, i think i was going to make a point to go to SXSW this year. but here i am, working almost everyday of the first half of this month. so to cut to the chase...cut and paste!!!

Hello,

Lovitt Records and Slip Productions will be doing a joint showcase during SXSW week. We joined forces because we care about good music and want to share our love with you.
We have been working non-stop to create the best possible show and just as we were about to announce the amazing line up we got the the following communique from The Frodus Conglomerate International:

"2009 has seen the world economy crumble due to the unethical practices of businessmen and corporate oligarchy. The current administration with the assistance of Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the United States Federal Reserve, has reached out to the Frodus Conglomerate International for aid. Calls were made, doors were closed and numbers adjusted. After weeks of vicious negotiation both parties agreed on a proper course of action.


The Frodus Conglomerate International will address the public for the first time in 10 years on Saturday March 21, 2009, at 4:30 pm in Austin, Texas. Austin will be the first of several public forums to address current global conditions forewarned by the FCI in years past. The Conglomerate has employed Liam Wilson of the Dillinger Escape Plan to supply bass guitar for this address while Nathan Burke organizes his North-West Contingency. We are the economic police.
"

In addition to announcing Frodus playing, we are happy to announce the rest of the amazing line-up! The show will take place on Saturday, March 21st at the Radio Room (508 East 6th Street) in Austin, Texas, on two stages.

Slavery in our midsts....

Read an article reposted on Boingboing.net today from Gourmet magazine about tomato pickers in the Naples, FL area that have been working under horrible,"slaver-like" conditions for years now. One such story revealed a group of men forced to live in a truck, pay $5 for cold, water hose showers, and threatened to be beaten by their "crew bosses" for being sick, exhausted, or malnourished. We are all very aware of the work conditions set in place for poverty level humans across the globe and even in this country, however, to have such basic slavery right under our noses in our own state is ludicrous.
there is a group called the Coalition of Immokalee Workers that has been campaigning for the rights of these workers for the past few years. the website is ciw-online.org.
check it out. send our governor an email.
i know that in these times caring for the income and well-being of others isn't necessarily easy, but these people are the ones pulling your fruits and vegetables everyday, making sure Publix has those perfectly red tomatoes in the Winter.
gettin off the soapbox now. atleast check it out. this is a huge part of our state.

Loser

No, I don't want to talk about it.

Sweaty Palms

Whenever I compete in any kind of video game tournament my palms get all kinds of sweaty. So at the gamestop tournament last week I was constantly drying off my hands on my pants in between matches, gross. Even so I still walked away victorious with some really crappy prizes and a spot in the semi-semi finals this up coming saturday.



Behold the crappy schawg. Yellow head band, wrist bands and a certificate. The tourney had two winners, Me and some asian dude who I think my girlfriend has a crush on. There were a quite a few asian dudes, which whom I defeated much to Connie's surprise. The attendees consisted of black dudes, asian dudes and dorky smelly white dudes. Needless to say gamestop smelled real bad that day. Even if I don't go all the way in this tournament I still plan on going to Evolution this july in vegas. Anyone wanna go? Seriously, I have a hotel room you can stay in, I don't want to be surrounded by nerds the entire week that I am there. Bah.

AHHHH!

Two inmates escape from Greek Max. Security Prison...BY HELICOPTER!!!!!

http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/02/23/greece.prison.resigns/index.html

ATHENS, Greece (CNN) -- The director of a maximum-security prison and two of his colleagues resigned Monday after two inmates escaped by helicopter.
Police at Korydallos prison after the daring escape.

The Greek minister of justice, Nicholas Dendias, said he had asked for and received the resignations of the director, security secretary and head of inspection and control at Korydallos Prison, in a suburb of Athens.

"The government will not tolerate the current situation," he said in a written statement. "Those involved in this escape will be brought to justice and punished."

The escape played out like a Hollywood action film.

It began around Sunday afternoon, when two men hijacked a helicopter from Athens International Airport and ordered the pilot to fly to the prison.

The helicopter hovered over the roof of a prison compound where inmates Nikos Paleokostas, 42, and Alket Riza, 34, were located. Rope ladders were unfurled and the prisoners climbed into the helicopter and escaped, the Justice Ministry said.

Prison guards shot at the helicopter during the escape, witnesses told local media. There were no reports of injuries.

The pilot was found gagged near the helicopter north of Athens, a state-run media report said.

The prison break by helicopter is the second from the prison for Paleokostas, who was convicted for abducting a businessman and escaped the first time in June 2006. He was recaptured several months later and returned to the prison.

Investigators searched for the inmates and unidentified accomplices Sunday.

On Monday, the justice minister announced the resignation of Leonidas Karampekiou, the prison director; Foti Vlachou, the security secretary there, and Apostolos Economou, the head of inspection and control at the prison.

BAP

BAP. Greetings everyone! Today is a beautiful day! Street Fighter IV comes out today, hopefully. In 3 weeks I will have a vacation from school and Orlando! I imagine that I feel like this guy does.



Everything else is ok, I have midterms all week which suck, but I belong to a really cool semi-secret organization called the bone society thats kind of cool. Are we ever going to get organized? Secret pass-words? A secret handshake that we don't do in public? A set of standards to become a member would be nice, a creed or a motto would also be a good idea. Oh I just realized the kind of people the society consists of, we only get ambitious when we get drunk. Which is fine since it was created under the influence of alcohol. IS ANYONE ELSE GOING TO POST HERE? EVER?.....*exhales*.

Back to the vacation thing, I will be in NYC for a week with the Connie Monster and would appreciate any suggestions for places to visit/eat. As soon as we get off the plane we will probably bee-line for the noodle bar and then proceed to drink and eat until we pass out on the MET. Preston recommends the ninja place so we might try that. I think I might make reservations at the best steak house in NYC. Has anyone eaten there before? Is it worth the price? Anyways, to quote defame "no one reads your blog anyways" so I really don't know why Im asking for feed back, since Rymar stated writing his vagina monologues no one else posts or reads this crappy blog.

Pre-Game

Its almost here, one the biggest nerd moments in my life. The release of street fighter IV. Gamestop called me up today to let me know one of my arcade sticks was in so went I down there to pick it up. It is really nice but an even better one is coming out with the game. The controller is nice and heavy, the parts are really responsive, over all a very well designed product. Now I have to wait five more days to use it. Thats not true, I am playing old street fighter as I type this.



It came with a nifty character card that has movelists and play mechanic descriptions, like the ones you would see on an actual arcade machine. I wish it was cordless but its not. Getting use to the arcade stick after so long on the pad is harder than I thought. The last time I was in an arcade was back in october in new york. I have a lot of work cut out for me.
