Who Has The Better Songs: Superman Or Batman? (1 photo + 5 video)

19 jun 2013 16:47

Anyone who says Superman is superior to Batman is fooling themselves. The Caped Crusader trumps the Man of Steel in comics, movies, outfits, nicknames, lady friends, TV shows, and dorky sidekicks — but what about music? There have been hundreds of songs written about both Batman and Superman, so in honor of Man of Steel, I thought we’d take a look at their musical history. Some criteria: I only chose songs that are NOT on official soundtracks (i.e. no “Bat Dance,” which is obviously the greatest thing ever), and they have to mention either “Batman” or “Superman” in the title. With a “Vicki Vale, Vick Va Vicki Vale” in your heart, here are 10 examples.

Cohen tells EW. “Since Seth voices Family Guy‘s talking dog, Brian, we thought it would be funny to have him blatantly rip himself off for our benefit. As an added bonus, the only person he can sue is himself, so we’re off the hook.” In the episode, which airs Aug. 14, the Planet Express crew journeys into Fry’s dreams to pull off a mission in the year 1999.

It’s well known that MTV doesn’t play music videos anymore. But if they DID and I was 12 years old and TRL was still on and I was the kind of kid who watched TRL (there are a lot of hypotheticals when it comes to the “M” in MTV), I’d want to see Miley Cyrus’s “We Can’t Stop” every 10 minutes. It looks like the teen version of a David Lynch film, where pink goo oozing out of a person after they cut their fingers off isn’t the weirdest thing that happens.

'Animal Man' #21: The Comic You Should Be Reading This Week and Others (13 photo)

Veggie

19 jun 2013 16:41

"Satirizing" "celebrity culture" is often a cheap and lazy grab for relevance. Throw a few weak jabs at a few easy targets (KIM! KANYE! AMANDA!), bemoan how shallow people are that they follow the every motion of dolts, and collect a paycheck. Social media has made this more intense, and made the "satire" even lazier. Leave it to Jeff Lemire and Steve Pugh to not only take the topic seriously, but make it fresh with, of all heroes, Animal Man. Buddy Baker is in the limelight because of a surprise nomination for Best Actor. He was in an indie movie about a struggling superhero called "Tights", and the nomination couldn't come at a worse possible time. Buddy's marriage is a wreck, his son is dead, he's lost all connection to the eminences behind his powers, and he's emotionally adrift. Lemire and Pugh have been consistently handing in superb work on this title, and this issue, kicking off a new arc, is no exception. And we see some new skills in action: Pugh turns out to be pretty slick with the layouts, and Lemire, in addition to being a great comics writer, turns out to be really good at satirizing self-centered Twitter douchebaggery. It's more than a gimmick, though. Lemire contrasts Buddy's struggles with the superficial and crappy way other people treat it: "Mullet" is a trending hashtag thanks to his son's death, for example, and as he tries to take his mind off his troubles by being a superhero again, we see the... variable reaction on social media. Animal Man #21 is a subtly thoughtful issue that often contrasts the frivolity, self-righteousness and nattering of even people who proclaim to be Buddy's fans with the hard realities of emotional pain, and for that, it's worth picking up. On the other hand, maybe you want to see a dead guy curbstomp some clown zombie midgets. Or perhaps the full release list, at the end of the slideshow.

“Spanking for Jesus.” Say it again, slowly: “Spanking.” “For.” “Jesus.” Lest you think that’s the name of a new metal band that only plays songs about masturbating, it’s not nearly that awesome; in fact, “Spanking for Jesus” is a terrible, terrible thing, founded by some terrible, terrible people. According to the Daily Beast: "Chelsea and her husband Clint, who asked that I use only their first names, belong to a small subculture of religious couples who practice “Christian Domestic Discipline,” a lifestyle that calls for a wife to be completely submissive to her husband. Referred to as CDD by its followers, the practice often includes spanking and other types corporal punishments administered by husbands—and ostensibly ordained by God. While the private nature of the discipline makes it difficult to estimate the number of adherents, activity in several online forums suggests a figure in the low thousands. Devotees call CDD an alternative lifestyle and enthusiastically sing its praises; for critics, it’s nothing but domestic abuse by another name." I recommend reading the entire thing — it brings back mankind about, oh, 500 years — including the CDD’s “Beginners Packet,” which, as Jezebel notes, “is 50 pages long…[and] also includes photographs of ideal spanking positions, as well as of spanking implements, with a list of pros and cons for each.” Such as:

The Definitive History Of Songs Of The Summer 1994-2012 (1 photo + 16 video)

"Get Lucky" is the song of the summer. It's already been proclaimed by us media elites, so deal with the fact that Daft Punk (really, Pharrell) will be the musical touchstone of the Summer of 2013. But what has happened to past songs of the summer? I decided to go back to 1994 (pre-1994 I mostly listened to Weird Al and my dad's Jackson Browne 8-tracks) to look at the cultural impact of the songs that really captured the essence of each summer, as well as take a look at where the artist who performed each is now and inject a personal memory, Klosterman-style. Of note, there's no mathematical formula for determining a song of the summer. Rather it's just the song that best captures the zeitgeist of the moment, as determined by yours truly. That means the song that was on MTV a lot (when I was a kid) or played in bars a lot (as an adult). Billboard ratings, friends' input, timing of the release (May-June is ideal) and my own beer-addled memory play a role but I'm the Queen of Hearts here -- the final decision is arbitrary and mine alone. However, feel free to register your displeasure in the comments.

It’s no wonder that when faced with their nightmarish reality, Japanese commuters prefer the deep respite of sleep to block out the world and pressures around then. The truth is that for many in Tokyo & it’s surrounding suburbs, a 60 hour working week isn’t that uncommon or unexpected. Compare that to somewhere like Australia, where the average working week is 38.5 hours and you can see why people have cram their sleeping patterns into their daily commute. Why do people will compelled to work such long hours? It’s partly cultural, but also due to supply and demand, failure to go above and beyond will see someone happily step into your role doing more hours for less pay such is the competition in the workplace. The capital of Japan, Tokyo is by far the world’s most populous metropolitan area. Approximately 13 million people live within the city radius, that’s roughly 6,029 individuals per sq kilometre. With figures like that, there’s little room for a breath or respite and why workers feel compelled to work such long hours to continue to guarantee their financial security. Nicholas Barker has just release a film titled ‘Tokyo Dreams’ where he elegantly documents and examines the sleeping patterns of some of the hardest working individuals in the developed work.

When it comes to self-autonomous orbs floating along the uninhabitable streets of a post-apocalyptic world, we’re not talking about the latest sci-fi movie from Hollywood, we’re describing the unique work of Masakatsu Sashie. He’s the gifted Japanese painter behind this series of spherical structures that hover over a barren landscape once formerly known as Earth. His vision of our future is in stark contrast to how the German’s back in 1900 perceived our future selves. He ingeniously comprises each orb using elements from modern-day society, our love of commerce, the architecture that surrounds us and the consumables we demand. A metaphor that if we focus purely on our desires of greed, wealth and convenience - we do so to the potential detriment of the environment and world in which we live.

Excel within the ranks of the Yakuza (Japan’s oldest major criminal network and akin to the Mafia) your every need, desire and want can be catered for. But if you fail and bring disgrace to the family, you will be subjected to the rather painful practice known as “Yubitsume”. It’s a tradition where gang members have to physically slice off their own little finger. Why the finger? There’s actually a twisted logic to the practice, the removal of the little finger actually makes it impossible to hold a strong grip on a samurai sword. As a result of this defect, you’re weakened in battle thereby forcing you to rely on protection from your boss / leader. It’s the ultimately tribute and punishment to authority. It’s not an unusual occurrence either, many Yakuza members now wear prosthetic pinkies (each costs around $2,500 – $3,000) regularly having them repainted and maintained to match the seasons and blend in with the rest of the arm. Whilst others might not notice the difference, both you and the Yakuza boss are acutely aware of your shortcomings and indeed who holds the real power. Here a a couple of examples we hope you enjoy!

Caleb Newton’s haul weighed in at approximately 17-pounds and six ounces, which he believes would break the world record by approximately two ounces. He told WTKR news that the catch was so big that he couldn’t even fit it into his cooler. “Haha, that’s awesome”, said his wife as she packed a suitcase and put the kids in the car when he brought it home. So why is this a big deal at all? Well, for starters, the northern snakehead fish is referred to as the “Frankenfish” less because it was lesser known SNL castmember that became a politician and more because it can walk on land. If that’s not creepy enough for you, these hideous monsters are not supposed to be in America and therefore have no natural predators. They will eat your dogs, cats, babies, arms and even each other.

There was no way Game of Thrones was going to top last week’s monumentally bloody “The Rains of Castamere,” and wisely, “Mhysa” didn’t even try. Instead, we got a fairly satisfying reminder that oh yeah, this character? He’s in a bad spot. And her? You best believe things aren’t looking good for her, too. It was a finale that checked in with everyone, and without adding too much information, set up new developments on old stories, like Jaime returning home as a broken man and Dany continuing on with another army in tow. Also, family is apparently very important. It was not Game of Thrones‘ finest hour, nor was it their weakest — it was a necessary next step after the events of Red Wedding, which has ramifications of all over Westeros, from the leech-ridden halls of Dragonstone to King’s Landing, where Joffrey is as happy about what transpired as Sansa is miserable. It was also an extremely dark episode. The show always takes, well, I’m not sure if the right word is “pleasure,” but it enjoys exploring the darkness of the world, where the terrors roam free, and “Mhysa,” despite its hopeful finale scene, was a cruel reminder that anyone who thinks they’re happy is just biding their time until they’re miserable again.

J. Bieber Steals a Paparazzo’s Camera, Continues Descent to Thugdom (1 video)

Justin Bieber is back to his old tricks again, flipping out on a paparazzo for doing his job and ordering his goons to steal the man’s camera like a respectable artist would. TMZ reports that the scuffle occurred outside The Hit music studio in Miami around 4 a.m. on Wednesday, when Justin spotted the pap and could be heard squeaking, “Grab that camera! Get that f—king camera out of here!” like the Wicked Witch commanding an army of winged monkeys. After the pap pleaded for his camera back, Justin used his Solomonic wisdom to compromise, telling the man he’d return it … kinda. “Alright, alright. I’m gonna give you your camera back. I’m gonna take your SIM card though,” he said. When the photog offered to delete the photos he’d (legally, it should be noted) taken, the Biebs refused to bend. Setting aside the fact that this was a camera — not a phone — and therefore had no SIM card, let’s not forget that stealing someone’s memory card is theft, whether if you’re a faux-thug singer or not. (Even reality stars don’t get away with that.) Police are investigating the incident, as well as another incident that allegedly went down a few hours later, in which a member of Justin’s security team choked out a different pap. Oh, and then there was that other incident with another photographer, which probably would’ve gotten ugly if arena security at a Miami Heat game hadn’t intervened. So, Justin didn’t personally steal the memory card or assault anyone, and merely influenced others to do so. But doesn’t that just make him the Charles Manson of tiny little Canadian pop stars?

James Franco is at it again — and by that we mean he’s doing something weird for no reason, except maybe just because he can. This time around? He’s recreating the horror film ‘Psycho’ dressed as Janet Leigh in a video art exhibit called ‘Psycho Nacirema.’ On the plus side, at least he’s not making other actors dance around in fake bird poop. Again. The exhibit features Franco in a blonde wig recreating scenes from the classic Hitchcock film in bits and pieces across large video installations, with plenty of him screaming in the shower. In addition to the film references, there are also allusions to the real-life rape and murder case against silent film actor Fatty Arbuckle, who, in the early 1920s, went through three separate trials before finally being acquitted. Said Franco of the purpose behind the installation: "In this show, we go back to the original locations and images of ‘Psycho’ and alter them so that once again the viewer’s relationship with the material changes. One becomes an actor when interacting with this work. Film becomes raw material and is sculpted into new work." ‘Psycho Nacirema‘ opens on June 6 at the Pace Gallery in London.

Well we all know that being a star isn't all happy times, and is actually a lot of hard work, dedication, and stress. No wonder many celebrities often struggle with drug and alcohol abuse, and often act out in unstable ways. I can imagine how the spot light of the parents has affected their poor children and unfortunately predisposed them for destructive behaviors. Here are some examples of famous kids who have gone the wrong way.

Everyone is beautiful on the inside. On the outside it is clear that some people are more gorgeous than others. Being a pretty person doesn't always give you benefits. Just ask these people. These women and one man feel like their good looks bring unwanted attention and professional obstacles.

Jj O'Brien Nolan, a Facebook user, posted a picture of an unidentified Taco Bell employee licking a stack of taco shells, to Taco Bell's official Facebook page. He posted this statement with the image "This sure says a lot about your employees, food treatment and what they post on the internet." The horrifying pic has taken off fast and is circulating all over internet. I can imagine the fear and frustration of the chain. Rob Poetsch, a Taco Bell spokesman, told the Daily News that the taco shells were never served to customers. "They were used for training only and in process of being thrown out, however, two employees took and posted this photo on their personal pages against policy," Poetsch said. What kind of training are they conducting with the food I wonder? He also claimed that they are conducting an investigation, and will take the appropriate actions when they find who did this. This kind of pictures make me realize once again that cooking at home is the best choice!

Central Kitsap High School staff didn't allow Brittany Minder into the Prom because of her large chest. She came to the event in a strapless gown and was told that she needed to cover her over the top cleavage. She felt humiliated and her prom night was ruined. Minder's parents want a public apology, because their daughter was singled out because of her physique. "All women are not created equal, and you cannot compare a gold ball to a grapefruit. It ain't gonna happen" said Kim Minder, Brittany's mom to KOMO-TV.

According to the World Health Organization, there are 500,000 cases of cervical cancer and 250,000 women die from it each year. India is especially susceptible to the disease because pap smears are not available. It's the number one cancer killer of women there. However there has been a recent discovery of a very low-tech way to screen for cervical cancer, and it has been one of the top five studies presented at the meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) in Chicago. Swabbing a woman's cervix with vinegar can apparently show abnormal cells on the surface of the cervix within one minute. "Within just one minute, the person administering the test - using the naked eye and a light - can see if there are abnormal cells on the surface of the cervix; abnormal cells turn white, because the acid in the vinegar makes protein in the nucleus of the abnormal cells coagulate and become easily visible."
