3 MINUTE CAN'T HURRY LOVE

HOW TO MAKE IT IN HOLLYWOOD

For those of you who missed Entertaining Julia in LA, here's a BRAND SPANKING NEW NEVER BEFORE SEEN (unless you were at the show of course) Hollywood megamix by yours truly:



Thanks again to Beth Stelling, Danielle & Tiffany Puterbaugh and Danielle @ Nerdmelt for having us. Follow them on Twitter and stuff.

LA! ENTERTAINING JULIA THIS FRIDAY!

Our pals (and Channel 2020 stars) The Puterbaugh Sisters and Beth Stelling are bringing their show Entertaining Julia to LA! Will we get discovered? Will a mysterious man in a stretch limo offer us eternal youth--for a price? Will we all get botulism from a botched Botox job? Join us at The Nerdmelt Showroom and find out!

3 MINUTE EXPRESS 2 TERROR!

Hey kooky LA/NYC liberals! You want to make your pipe dream of rail travel a reality in this country? Well, it'll cost you...

AN ASTROLOGY CAROL 4 EVERYONE!

Unfortunately Harvey Sid Fisher doesn't like that we like his videos his videos as much as we do. As per Mr. Fisher's wishes, I took them down. So now Ghoul Skool's mom won't get sued. Anywho, here's a pretty awesome sampler of the astrology jamz!



If you wish to buy the VHS tape of all 12 songs in their entirety, go here! And just in case you were so upset that we had to take these down, that you were going to start underage smoking...

GET STREET SMART

With Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, because that's the celebrity they got.

2-MINUTE (OR SO) HOLLYWOOD COP!

If I were an analog film editor, then by the time I finished this 2(ish) minute cut I would have been neck deep in forgotten reels and my own tears. There's so many subplots going on in this nug that I might have to make the first 2-Minute sequel shortly. It's the next course I recommend in the 'When Shirtless Dudes With Machine Guns Ruled the Earth.' film studies program. I also want to say that this tape is one of our first coveted relics that we bought as pals in college, and was the tape that turned a boy named Joel into a man named Airwave Ranger. This one's for you, pal!



Also, people kept telling me to watch this with that '1911' button (click and watch it on YouTube), and I gotta say- it's a pleasant surprise!

IN CASE YOU MISSED MIAMI CONNECTION...

I made this as a trailer, but it's really a 2 minute movie in itself. From the weirdos who brought you MIAMI CONNECTION we got LA STREETFIGHTERS aka NINJA TURF! Don't miss it!

2EVERYTHING2TOURDIARY 8&9!

Our brain-cleansing sponsor Paul Crik has allowed us a 5-minute break from our past life reikihypnohydrotherapy, so let's make this quick. The past 2 weeks have been fucking incredible.

The Friday before last we did a special surprise Albuquerque show where we played with the awesome bands A Church Is Not A Hospital, John Dieterich and Friends, and Fat Worm of Error, who were kind enough to provide musical accompaniment to our monster show! It was a match made in Hell:



Then we pointed the van due north to Denver, where we celebrated Keith's birthday with the Starz film center crew and Clayton, the Chosen Bearer of the Jerries! Hooray Denver!

Next we had a show at the world famous Loft cinema in Tuscon, where the magickal circle was finally completed and the portal to Hell opened!



Our task complete, we celebrated with a show in Tempe with the Midnite Movie Mamacita and a very interesting visit to the Unarian compound/ show at the Che Cafe in San Diego.

Then it was only a short ride up the cost to the big show, the Everything Is Festival at the Silent Movie Theater in LA!





Three coke parties and five pitch meetings later, it was on to San Francisco and four shows at the amazing Red Vic Theater:

Finally we returned our videos to their natural habitat with a show at Neighborhood Thrift/Cafe in Fresno:



And tonight we make our Portland Debut at 10 PM at the Hollywood Theater!

Well, back to the sensory deprivation chamber. We've got a lot of negative karma to work through. Until next time, Terriblites....

this is it. fuck it. it is what it is.

THE EVENT TO END ALL EVENTS!!!

Imagine a weekend where all your fantasies come true. A weekend where you can just be...free. Laugh until your sides literally split open, and feel as cool as a skateboarding, shade-tippin' dog. We're talking about the festival to end all film festivals -- Everything Is Festival! (aka the 10th Annual Gathering Of The Terribles)! For reasons beyond our control (God's plan), we at Cinefamily are giving the found footage freaks... at Everything Is Terrible! free range of the weekend, and letting them do whatever the hell they want (note: we did have to say “no” to the all-night helicopter foam party). This makes it the official L.A. premiere of their latest mash-up feature-length film, 2Everything 2Terrible 2: Tokyo Drift, not to mention some of EIT!’s favorite movies in their uncut glory, plus dance parties, BBQs, a return of the Cinefamily Found Footage Battle Royal, and top-secret über-rare prints from the vaults of Cinefamily and Austin, TX’s famous Alamo Drafthouse! If that wasn't enough to drench your dick, EIT! will also be playing assorted madness from all their favorite pals they've met on their mystical journey: TV Carnage, Waverly Films, Rob Schrab, Black Magic Roller Coaster and tons more! Overall, we promise it will be the most fun you'll ever have at this dump! Think Sundance, but for discerning slobs like you! Swag-bags for folks who buy weekend passes! The only thing we ask is to bring along your old friend...Imagination!

DAY ONE (August 28th):
- Spend the day with EIT! and friends as we play tons of unseen gems, old friends, etc. focusing on KIDS, CHRISTIAN MADNESS, AND BORING STUFF!
- 2Everything 2Terrible 2: Tokyo Drift (official L.A. premiere!)
- Super rare/amazing screening of 'Miami Connection' presented by the world famous ALAMO DRAFHOUSE!
-Total Madness Dance Party (aka Night Of 1000 Duanes!)

DAY TWO (August 29th):
- ALL DAY BBQ!
- Special one-of-a-kind screening with top secret celebrity guests! (you will not want to miss this)
- Found Footage Battle Royale!!!
- epic big-ass shindig to follow!

EIT SELLS OUT!

A big, big thank you to everybody that came out on Saturday to see the premiere of Everything is Terrible: the Movie! We could not have asked for a more enthusiastic and supportive crowd. This was the first time we got to experience the Terrible with a live audience and it was a real treat.

Congratulations to happysquid on her new title of Keeper of the Terrible and her bounty of Jerry Maguire tapes. Although she could not accept all 100 on Saturday, she has been enrolled in the Maguire of the Month Club which will bring a new used VHS copy of Jerry Maguire to her home every month.

Also sincere apologies to any persons that were hit by flying VHS tapes (thanks for not holding a grudge, xpoint). We will try to keep all head injuries internal for future performances.

We would also like to express our gratitude to the staff of the Silent Movie Theatre and the Cinefamily for their hard work and for allowing us to perform our cult ritual in their lovely theatre.

Finally we would like to give some recognition to two unsung heroes that helped make all this possible: Bobby Nintendo and Lehr(the Intern)thing. Both of them did many thankless jobs for very little reward and we are eternally grateful for their tireless efforts.



But don't feel left out, non-Angelenos. We have Chicago and New York shows in the works and hopefully many other cities near you. We won't stop until we are living the dream with a nightly show in Branson.

Thanks to Ashley for the pictures.

THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS!

Only 82 hours, 20 minutes and 56 seconds until the big night! You'd better get those tickets ASAP!
