Yer friendly neighborhood munchamambo is here to tell you, “I give up!”
Yrs trly has read this post about why we all need to have (write? draw? tell over the campfire?) something called a “brand story” three times and I’m still clueless about what the fuck it’s talking about.
If podcasts are so fucken popular, how come das munchinkin doesn’t know anybody (that’s right, not one single human or for that matter dog, cat, horse, or turtle) who’s ever listened to one?
3 STARS OUT OF 5
Omitting the fourth and fifth stars because let’s face it here, there’s so little real interest in podcasting that anything moi or you or anybody else says about it is meaningless..
Whoa! The big news yesterday – you know, Sunday, a day when they never show us any news, which explains why you never heard about it before as well as why yer friendly neighborhood muncher-in-chief isn’t reporting it til today…wait. Where wuz I?
Oh. Right. The big news is that – and this is a headline at dailycartoonist.com:
LARRY LIEBER, STAN LEE’S BROTHER, SUES MARVEL
And yessirree, what LL is suing about is “a bigger portion of the pie” Marvel and its master, Disney, are making from film characters like Thor, Iron Man, Ant-Man, Loki et al, all of which, it turns out first appeared in comic book stories credited as written by, yeppers, you guessed it, Larry L his oh-so-very self.
Critiques of THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA are showing up all over YouTube. Viewers are enjoying the dissection of selected scenes with explanations of what makes them work. One video, “Andy Gets a Makeover,” attracted well over a million views since JoBlo Movie Clips posted it in June.
Impressive for a 15-year-old movie.
At the same time, Throw Back TV is posting scenes and full episodes of JUST SHOOT ME, a sitcom on NBC that poked fun at women’s magazines from 1997 to 2003.
This New York Times subhead says it all:
Three weeks after naming him as Alex Trebek’s replacement to host the show, Sony cited “disruption and internal difficulties” in its announcement that he will leave the program entirely.
And so we wave a not-so-fond “adieu” to a guy who achieved 2 major dubious distinctions to the world in, what, about 4 weeks?
