Don't Be a Traitor, Collaborator

Said, "I'd rather be a snitch than a cocktail waiter!"

Here's a terrific video for a criminally underrated song by a criminally obscure band, with some incredibly witty lyrics. The video reminds me of one of those movies by that guy what married Madonner:





Ugh, IMDB indicates that Mr. Madonna is doing a remake of Excalibur, the original film having been directed by that guy what directed Zardoz. What the hell good is a remake of Excalibur if Nichol Williamson isn't involved? This new version of Excalibur, may be a dream to some, but it's a nightmare to the Bastard:





Damn, can't anyone in the film industry come up with a new idea? Hell, I'd even settle for a Matter of Britain film with an original title... how about Caliburn?

For the record, the coolest thing ever written about King Arthur was actually not about King Arthur- the Welsh poem Y Gododdin features one of the most badass lines EVAR!!!

He fed black ravens on the rampart of a fortress
Though he was no Arthur.

    New ideas are risky.

    Safer to remake proven winners like "Showgirls".

    Shit, I return from the Land of Dust & Neon to hear about this nonsense?

    Jet lag, take me away!

    (Mary Stewart's trilogy, also too.)

    No one will be allowed into or out of the theater during the nail-biting "ants gathering flaxseed" sequence!
