Japan

I have no idea what this unbelievable Japanese game show is called but if I were to guess based on this clip I would say "Kissing Critters" or something cute like that. It's probably the grossest game show I have ever seen. Usually these Japanese game shows are just super weird, like where guys get kicked in the balls by a ball kicking machine, or do dance moves while farting, but this is almost too much to take. As a warning people are going to put creepy things in their mouth.   That's what she said.

I think my favorite thing about all these shows are the priceless reactions from the contestants.  You really know they're not faking it, kind of like your mom.  Double burn.   [via buzzfeed]

I want to make sweet sweet love to this trailer for the spectacularly named Alien Vs Ninja.  At first you think it's just a standard ninja movie with awesomely bad looking ninjas, and then all of the sudden there is a fireball and aliens are in the mix.  So really you get everything that the trailer promises, the rest is just gravy.  Delicious ninja gravy. 

The synopsis only further confirms the awesomeness.

Once upon a time in Japan, there was a band of great Ninja warriors led by Yamata called Iga Ninja. One day they witness a flash in the sky and a roaring giant ball of fire crashes into the distant forest. The warriors rush into the deep woods in an attempt to identify the mysterious fireball. There, instead of finding predictable enemies, they are stunned to face never-seen-before creatures with claws and fangs, the aliens! The hungry brutal aliens start to savage and feast on the Ninja warriors, leaving only a few to survive. Yamata and his warriors swear to avenge their comrades deaths and risk their lives to challenge the aliens. However, none of the Ninja weapons, neither their swords nor their throwing stars, has any affect on the alien warriors. Now the Japanese greatest Iga Ninja face the biggest challenge ever!

Wait a minute, I'm pretty sure I had that exact dream last night.  If it's anything like the end of my dream you can expect a flying Walrus with the face of Tony Danza to save the day.  This is going to be great.   [via vulture]

I'm not sure if you guys have heard yet but there is a small rumor going around that Sir Paul McCartney may be appearing at this year's Bonnaroo.  A very exciting rumor, but just that, a rumor, as the initial lineup will not be revealed until this Tuesday February 9th.  In an effort to conjure up all the good juju possible, here is Japanese Paul McCartney and Wings tribute band called Flying Horses doing the Wings hit Silly Love Songs.  A pretty awesome version, hopefully that gets the force on our side for Tuesday's lineup announcement.
