Don’t let the lame-ass “Something-ing Someone” title fool you, this flick is only about twelve lines shy of being the perfect gutbusting break up comedy of all time.
This film is awesome, and as per usual with this era, it starts out slow and clunky, but as per usual with Hitchcock, once it gets going it REALLY gets going.
Ian Fleming, Albert Broccoli, Roald Dahl, c’mon, there is no doubt in my mind that this is the most perfect example in its genre but just wait til the version comes out where I edit away the two songs that just don’t live up.
I guess I can see why Dr. Seuss hated the way this turned out but still it is a must-see and don’t forget to look for things that ended up in The Simpsons.
Surprise. Did you think that the video for “Welcome to the Third World” was forgot? Ha.
The video was directed by Webster Colcord and Mr. C. Taylor, with the skeletons by Dan Berry. And the tune, of course, is from our 2008 Beat The World release …Earth To The Dandy Warhols…
This video is up now at Yahoo, and you can buy it on iTunes.
Yep. You literally will never know what is going to happen next around here.
We’re adding new shows to our summer tour at a ridiculous pace. There’s even more on the way. Ever thought about subscribing to the show rss feed? If your answer was no, think again.
Fathead had a tidy Q and A in today’s Oregonian about his new collection of songs. He’ll being playing a benefit for MS this Friday night at The Woods on SE Millwuakie in Portland, if you want to check that out. Zia will be DJing as well.
And a reminder, The Dandys will be performing this next Tuesday at Rock and Rolls Supper Club at The Firehouse in NE Portland.
