Twitter in Focus: Jon Daly

by tonyd on November 12, 2014 at 12:01 am

Hey Bros!

Welcome to Twitter in Focus where media comes to die!  Today’s contestant is Jon Daly, probably best known as Nick Kroll’s sidekick on the Kroll Show.  He hilarious on that, let’s see what he’s tweeting.

@jondaly

November 10th:  “Video: 2 Wet Crew via ”

Okay.  That was strange.  Funny, but strange.

18 hours ago:  “Spoiler alert: Interstellar is stellar ”

Yeah, I’ll probably go see this.  Should be decent.

9 hours ago:  “Can’t wait to name my son “Kai”.”

I think you should name him Ka-el.  Then tell him never to go into the barn or watch a Superman movie.  He’ll wonder.

8 hours ago:  “Photo: Disgusting men. Disgusting friends. {via } ”

Gemberling!

8 hours ago:  “#FF @nanglish”

I have no idea.

8 hours ago: “#FF @aparnapkin”

Oh, fellow comedy people I think. 

6 hours ago:  “I’m attracted to fat versions of Disney cartoons but I have to admit Id rather fuck the skinnier cartoons! ”

That sounds like a Kroll Show sketch or a visit to a therapist.

4 hours ago:  “Piers Morgan enters the conversation :(”

Quick!  Everyone hide their guns!

2 hours ago:  “After this current wash/dry session I’ll be at peak laundry. All washed, all folded, none in the hamper. Fuck you all!”

That’s exactly when you’re going to shit your pants.  Then it sits at the bottom of your hamper all week and turns into mushrooms.  I’ve seen it happen.

Okay, let’s rate Jon’s tweets.  Disjointed, a bit weird, good stuff.  I give him a 9 for Mustness, an 8 for Style and a 10 for Insanity.  That’s an overall score of 9, follow Jon.  Hopefully, the man will get his own TV show soon.

And if you’d like to see someone on Twitter in Focus, email me here.

Movies You Missed: Edge of Tomorrow

by tonyd on November 10, 2014 at 12:01 am

The premise is pretty much in the trailer.  The world is losing a war to aliens.  Tom Cruise plays a non-combat soldier.  His job is to sell the war to the public.

But when he ends up insulting a general, the general sends him to the front line.  Cruise ends up on a doomed invasion and blows himself up with one of the aliens.  Suddenly, he returns to 24 hours before.  He remembers the day he lived, but no one else does.  This time he can live it over again and do something different and each time, he gets better at fighting the aliens.

What makes the movie good is Cruise’s acting.  He plays an excellent weasel in the beginning.  Slowly, over the course of the movie, he becomes a man of action.  Emily Blunt plays his mentor, a female soldier that had the same power, but lost it.  Using Cruise’s ability, they have to defeat the aliens.

It’s a decent, fun, action flick, although there are few conventions here that are kind of boring.  The ending is a little pat and time travel can get a little cheesy.  Of course, despite the fact there are aliens, no one believes Cruise or Blunt or anyone else.  Still, it’s a solid action flick.  It’s not going to blow your mind, but it is fun to watch Tom Cruise get killed over and over.  Think of it as Ground Hog Day, but much more violent.

Edge of Tomorrow is playing on Comcast On-Demand.  It’s definitely worth a look.
