Twilight Cycles from Brandon Routh
Is your monthly cycle getting between you and your vampire lover? Sounds like you need Vampax — new tampon technology that promises to keep you safe while you run around the forest with your brooding bloodsucking boyfriend. Learn all about it in this Twilight parody from the people at Funny or Die.
Protect Insurance Companies PSA from Will Ferrell
Just when you thought it was impossible to make the country's debate about health care exciting, sexy Jon Hamm throws himself into the fray. The mad man is one of many celebrities starring in a new Funny of Die video that spoofs all the healthcare PSAs dominating the airwaves. Will Ferrell, Donald Faison, and Olivia Wilde join Jon in sarcastically asking "why is Obama trying to reform health care when insurance companies are doing just fine making billions of dollars in profit?"
Douches and Red Bull often go together, but not like this. Mandy Moore totally nails the '70s lady-commercial voice and the fashions in this parody ad for Red Bull Douche, "the world's first feminine hygiene product with Red Bull." Admittedly, I've sometimes wished I could mainline energy drinks — just not down there.
Exploitation. Voyeurism. Tears.
Most of you found Twilight's bad vampire James (Cam Gigandet) hot enough to do and marry. For the Edward Cullen-loving tween fan-pire set, however, he can suck it. Watch what happens when Cam has the misfortune of stumbling upon a Twilight reading group full of reverential worshipers.
Maybe Natalie Portman is just a good actress, but I would not want to be on her bad side. It's a good thing for Zach Galifianakis that this interview is fake. It must be in honor of Offend of a Feminist Week, because he manages to fake-offend Natalie, and her little dog, with every question.
K, I thought this was getting old (what with this and this and, oh, that's it) and that Funny or Die's take on the gay-marriage storm was more deadly than funny. But then a Connecticut weatherman comes on and says "there's a cold front coming in and it's gay people," and gay people start falling from the sky, and I laughed. OK, I laughed.
Mr. Spriggs knows not only about BBQ but about advertising as well. I would totally pay attention to commercials if they were all this cool.
Join the Kevin Bacon Movie Club for just 20 bucks. What do you get? Rent Footloose, for example, and Kevin Bacon will deliver it to your doorstep and sit down, make himself at home, and watch the film with you!
But then again, this choice is clear every day, of every year. (Thanks for reminding those undecideds, Natalie and Rashida!)
