Speaking of Blades of Glory
Speaking of Blades of Glory
Apr 02When Matt commented on seeing Blades of Glory (Matt’s score: One surprising thumbs up) it reminded me of this bit of genius marketing – the PR people for Blades of Glory got Ask A Ninja to come to their press junket day. And the results are spectacular. Particularly considering Ninja holds his own against Will Farrell, who can set lesser comedians on fire apparently. Just by quipping at them.
Local boy (local to me, anyhow) Paul Campbell leaves Battlestar Galactica (via a bullet no less) and moves to Hollywood. And gets a pilot! A meta pilot sitcom. And it’s funny. But that just means execs don’t want it. So they put it up on YouTube. And then they start making YouTube shorts. Meta YouTube shorts. And they’re funny. Now there’s pressure to get the show made. Boy, I hope so. I hate TV right now.
And if you’re looking for a good comedy podcast (which are hard to find), I’d like to recommend I Love Movies with Doug Benson. Doug runs with the Mr. Show circle of comedians, so his guest list is solid.
