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.

  1. New ideas are risky.

    Safer to remake proven winners like "Showgirls".

    (Mary Stewart's trilogy, also too.)

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