Open Thread for August 19, 2011

This thread contains all natural and organic flavors, but has not been CSPIA-certified. Open at your own risk.

This week? All about the movies. We’ve got Conan the Barbarian, Fright Night and One Day. Plenty of eye candy (Jason Momoa, Colin Farrell and Anne Hathaway) but no Oscar bait yet. To be expected.

In the music world, if you were at the Gathering of the Juggalos this week, you might have missed the news that YouTube has reached a revenue-sharing deal with the National Music Publishers Association, squashing a lawsuit beef in the process.

If you like dark, adult, absurd comedy, you’ll be happy to know that Children’s Hospital has been renewed! If not, you won’t care.

Comment of the Week goes to site regular Hazbaz for this LOLler on Mini Talmud: Empire State of Mind:

An alternative reading of the line is that the second line is meant to be heard like an advertising slogan, sort of like:

“New York: (it’s a) Concrete Jungle where dreams are made of New York!”

Which, I’ll admit, doesn’t make a great deal of sense.

You’re right, Hazbaz, it doesn’t. But making me laugh aloud puts you at the top of my list.

Could Rob Corddry fend off a horde of slavering juggalos with just a broadsword and Anne Hathaway? Or is there something we missed? Sound off in the comments, for this is your … Open Thread.
