Posted 5/4/12 12:30 pm EST by in Humor, Video

Tenacious D

When you think about a Tenacious D music video, a few things come to mind. There will likely be some fantasy elements like in the devil in "Tribute." You could also probably bet on a sword showing up, like in the "Lord of the Rings"-inspired "Wonderboy" video.

For their latest video effort, "Rize of the Fenix," the D has thrown just about everything in the repertoire together to make the ultimate special effects video experience.

Scoop up the puddle on the floor that used to be your brain, and click after the jump to see the entire video.

Benedict Cumberbatch Doesn't Know Much 'Star Trek' Trivia

Posted 5/3/12 10:50 am EST by in Humor, Interviews, Video

When joining a fan-loved franchise like "Star Trek," there's a certain amount of responsibility that goes along with it. It's widely assumed that you'll have to do your research, watch the old television series and burn through the Shatner movies.

Benedict Cumberbatch has a different approach.

When Cumberbatch sat down with MTV News' Josh Horowitz to talk about the upcoming season of "Sherlock," he was put to the test and attempted to answer some "Trek" trivia. Let's just say that if this were a real test, he may probably wouldn't have passed. How is he supposed to handle to the Kobayashi Maru?

Steven Spielberg Hits 'SNL' With 'Laser Cats' Pitch

Posted 4/16/12 1:11 pm EST by in Humor

What's a sure-fire way to have "Saturday Night Live's" "Laser Cats" sketch continue to be hilarious? Add Steven Spielberg to the mix.

Andy Samberg, Bill Hader and the team behind "SNL's" Digital Shorts managed to land the acclaimed director to come on the show and help pitch "Laser Cats 7" to their producer, Lorne Michaels. Yes, it is as amazing as it sounds.

The video they present to Michaels is chock full of references to Speilberg's previous work. There's an alien named E.A.T., a Tyrannosaurus Cat and even a "The Terminal" nod for good measure.

Once in a generation, there is born a talent so great, so astounding, that it cannot be stopped. When I think back on the pantheon of actors in the world, one name tops my list...

Arnold Schwarzenegger Explains The Joke Of 'Triplets'

Posted 4/4/12 6:00 pm EST by in Humor, News

Schwarzenegger

Sometimes words are so beautifully spoken that to supplement them with commentary would mean doing an injustice to the orator's original brilliance.

That is not the case with Arnold Schwarzenegger's interview with ComingSoon.net about the upcoming "Twins" sequel, "Triplets." The quote is so perfect, so unintentionally hilarious that we need to present it here in a new segment we call, "Arnold Schwarzenegger Explains the Joke."

"I would love to do another 'Twins,'" Schwarzenegger said when asked if there were any past characters he'd like to revist. "As a matter of fact, we've been talking about doing one and it's called 'Triplets.' I'd find somebody like Eddie Murphy or someone that people would say, 'How does that happen, medically speaking?' and, 'Physically, there’s no way!' Then, somehow, we would explain it. That would be hilarious with what we know about someone like him."

'Bohemian Rhapsody' Viral Video: A Historical Comparison

Posted 3/30/12 6:08 pm EST by in Humor

by Fallon Prinzivalli

There are few songs more iconic than Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody." It's one of those songs you can sing in the shower when you think no one's home or yell with friends at a bar on Friday night.

Apparently, it's also a great song to belt in the back of a cop car after being arrested for a DUI. At least, that's what Canadian Robert Wilkinson thought. A YouTube video of the incident recently went viral, but the song isn't a stranger to cars. Remember Wayne's World? (Who are we kidding, how could you forget?) Wayne and Garth also sing a hilarious rendition of the song while driving down the street.

So, who sang it better and which will be remembered? Or should everyone stick to the original Queen version from now on? Watch them after the jump and let us know which you think is the most classic rendition.

This time around Hollywood's A-listers are turning on each other as Ashton Kutcher relinquishes his role as Prank King to a different celeb every week.

'Wrath Of The Titans': Five More Hair Styles For Sam Worthington

Posted 3/29/12 1:21 pm EST by in Commentary, Humor

When the trailer for "Wrath of the Titans" dropped, it seemed like everyone couldn't help but comment on Sam Worthington's hair, of all things. In the ten years that passed between the events of "Clash of the Titans" and "Wrath," Perseus must have been looking for something new in the hair department and decided to just grow it out.

We asked Worthington about the big to-do about his hair, and he didn't quite understand. But he did go on to success some hairstyle he could have for any future "Titans" movies.

We have a few recommendations of our own, so here are some styles that Perseus should consider for the next time around.
