Hey Bros!
Welcome to Twitter in Focus where media comes to die. Today I stumbled across the Twitter of Thomas Lennon, AKA: Lt. Dangle from Reno 911! Not to mention member of the State and writer of many scripts including Night at the Museum. He’s an immensely talent human being. Let’s see if his twitter lives up to that talent.
August 13th: “Sleep tight! 3 Ghosts will visit you tonight, to change the chain you are forging in this life. In order: 1. “Dad from Alf.””
August 13th: “2: “Floating, severed arm of the dude from Def Leppard.””
August 13th: “3: “Eyes without a Face, but with a Commercial Agent.””
The dad from Alf is dead?! Why didn’t Alf use his muppet powers to bring him back to life?!
August 13th: “Heed the lessons of these spectres, And let’s talk in the morning.”
All the arm keeps saying is, “Rock on!”
August 13th: “Do they say “rent a case of wine” in the Stones song Miss You?”
Nope. It’s “We gonna bring a case of wine.”
August 13th: “Heading to the airport. Specifically put MANY Summer’s Eve douches in my carry-on, just so I can act annoyed when the TSA takes them away.”
Ha!
August 14th: “The toaster ovens that heat up stuff at Starbucks have 2 settings: “Off” & “Surface of the Motherfucking Sun.””
That’s the only way they can properly heat a Plasma Panini.
August 14th: “Been trying to make my pubes look like that dude’s hair in “Old Boy.””
August 15th: “Anybody lose some underwear in the park? http://say.ly/smkBf5”
Damn. I thought the rain would melt that.
August 15th: “Closer view, if it helps. Use this hashtag to claim: #thosearemyfilthyunderweariabandonedinthepark http://say.ly/VNeBf7”
Whew. Fortunately, you can’t read my name in them.
August 18th: “Ladies, hold on to your panties. Here’s some of my sexy wardrobe from “What to Expect When You’re Expecting.” http://say.ly/kMmBQ9”
Looks like something out of Middleaged GQ circa 1958.
August 18th: “If you already heard it, sorry. But I’ll never get this song out of my head: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVmmYMwFj1I”
Finally, a hipster song I can get behind.
August 19th: “It’s Friday in ATL. Anybody know a good foam bar with Jaegie by the Yard?”
If you went to Atlanta, you were there the wrong weekend Thomas. Should’ve gone to Dragon Con. You could’ve dressed in character and no one would’ve noticed.
August 20th: “Reno 911! fans might like to know that Raineesha’s booty is safety in my basement. http://say.ly/oTJCox”
You have shattered my booty fantasy.
August 20th: “Teaching my son that with imagination — anything is possible. Like Admiral Ackbar fucking a Mermaid. http://say.ly/MKqCqh”
It’s a trap! She’s just doing it for her Rebel Alliance green card!
August 21st: “Parents of LA. There’s 2 more weekends of Romeo and Juliet for kids at the Actor’s Gang @11 am Culver City. Amazing… http://say.ly/cJwCw2”
What happens at the end? Romeo and Juliet go out for ice cream instead of killing themselves?
August 21st: “http://kevinpollakschatshow.com/??”
Wow, sweet site.
August 23rd: “Has Aruba trademarked their new slogan “Come get Murdered” yet?”
Sorry, Miami trademarked it first.
August 26th: “Have a safe Friday night, gang. Or the greatest bungee-fuck of your life. #bungeefucking #doesntexist #notyet”
They’re always bad for me. I never have enough money for the escort AND the bungee chord rental.
August 27th: “In case you’re wondering if I was always a badass. The answer: http://say.ly/hocDNJ”
Ack! Ye be badass, laddie!
August 29th: “Hey gang. I just got picked as R.A. of our floor. Hit me up if you need something, or just want to dialogue.”
I think your twitter just went back to 1985.
August 29th: “My “3 Perfect Days” in Rome article got rejected by Hemispheres Magazine due to how many times I mentioned resting m… http://say.ly/QjqEak”
If it wasn’t at least five, forget it.
September 3rd: “I’m about to “mount” another production of Chess. Literally.”
You’re going to fuck a chess board?
September 4th: “Anybody know where I can get a suit of armor that doesn’t look stupid when worn in a Prius?”
Yes.
September 5th: “Regretting all those times I murdered a girlfriend on vacation where I FORGOT to take out life insurance on her.”
That’s why I buy insurance for everyone I meet. Just in case.
Okay, let’s rate Thomas’s tweets. Had to do a little editing. He’s a pretty relentless tweeter at times. Good mixture of jokes, updates and stuff he’s actually doing. I give him a 9 for Style, 9 for Mustness and 9 for Insanity. An overall score of 9, you gotta follow Dangle.
And if you have a suggestion for Twitter in Focus, email us here.
There are so many good reasons to like this movie, it’s hard to know where to begin. First, it has a top notch comedy cast: Jason Sudeikis from SNL, Lake Bell from Children’s Hospital, Nick Kroll from The League and Tyler Lebine from Sons of Tuscon and Reaper. It’s really hard to go wrong with a funny line up like that. The movie was very funny. The basic premise: Sudeikis has been throwing parties in the Hamptoms at his dad’s house for his friends for years. But now his dad, who never really used the house, is selling it. The gang will lose their clubhouse and in between foiling realtors, Sudeikis and Lebine decide one last blowout (an orgy) is the way to go.
Second, there is a lot of hot chicks and nudity. Angela Sarafyan breasts are spectacular. There is a scene of dudity, but it’s for comic effect and very short.
But third, and maybe most importantly, this is a smart script. Writers Alex Gregory and Peter Huyck (in what looks like their first movie screenplay) really create a fully realized world. The characters all have good and positive traits. Plus, the ensemble cast has a long history together. The movie doesn’t waste a lot of time introducing people or creating uncomfortable moments where unknown characters need to interact with one another. The duo also directed the movie and it is tight. It seamlessly cuts from one group of characters to another.
This movie could’ve easily spiraled into cheesiness or wimped out when it was orgy time, but it doesn’t. Very little cheese here. You get the feeling that these characters are long time friends and the movie focuses on them and their history. And although the orgy is an important event in the movie, the focus is not so over the top, you wonder what the characters do outside of those events. For instance, there’s a wedding right in the middle of the movie, that isn’t super crucial to the story. It just happens and then the events continue.
Is there a romance? Of course. A Hollywood movie like this has to have one, but it’s not unusually obnoxious and easily could’ve been. Very little focus is given to the romance. Tyler Lebine nearly steals the show and Nick Kroll plays a character decidedly different from his one in The League. The movie was a good time. Boobies and comedy, what more could you ask? And although it had a sort of standard “Swingers-are-crazy” scene, for the most part, the movie treats sex and swinging in an adult and positive manner, which is nice to see.
I give A Good Old Fashioned Orgy 9 out of 10 keggers. Don’t miss some hilarious boobies.
