Venture Bros. Season 4 Promo!!

The Venture Bros. Season 4 promo from Comic Con now online at Adult Swim and it pure fun.  For those who know nothing about this show, it started as a Johnny Quest parody and quickly developed into a hilarious exploration of pop culture with references ranging to the Four Four (now the Impossibles with Mr. Impossible originally voiced by Stephen Colbert and now Bill Hader) to David Bowe to The Neverending Story to GI Joe and Voltron.  Netflix the first the first season and you won’t regret it (fair warning the first couple of episodes are on the weaker side).  Promo is below.

My favorite moment?  Sgt Hatred’s apparent meltdown in the panic room.  For true Venture fans check out Publick Nuisance creator Jackson Publick’s blog.  There will be spoilers there for newbies to the series.

100 Best Move Lines in 200 Seconds

Liquid Generation put together this cool little video collecting some of the 100 best movie lines.  It’s pretty good, though how one leaves out the “damn, dirty apes” escapes me.  And I never thought the day would come that someone, somewhere would compile a list of the best film quotes ever and include not one by John Wayne.  The Duke must be rolling over in his grave.

An Earth Day Flashback

Back in 1990 ABC hosted a star studded special for the 20th anniversary of Earth Day.  As the special starred such celebrities as Chevy Chase, Danny Devito, Bugs Bunny, Downtown Julie Brown, Kristie Alley, Rodney Dangerfield, Robin Williams, Candice Bergen, and Kid N’ Play among many others, I remember that the premiere was truly Must See TV.  I think my parents and I actually ate dinner in front of the TV… a incredibly rare occurrence.  Now, 19 years later the special feels as antiquated as something from the 50’s; not because of the actors, but because of how we, as viewers, absorb information (and especially advertising) has changed so dramatically as of recent.  Here’s the opening:
