My Very Own Top 10 Directors List

Dan Taft
I’m not like these other guys. I’m not just going to put together some shabby list celebrating the usual suspects. Quite the contrary- some will call me mad for compiling lists in this manner. And yet, the data suggests that I might just be completely right. Who to trust? Who to turn to for advice? With so many looming questions, one can always count on my top 10 lists to get them through tough times. So, once again, heeeerrrrreeee we go:

10. Tim Burton - Arguably my personal favorite, Burton is a very unique director who has his signature all over every frame of his films. Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, the first two Batman movies, Big Fish, Ed Wood, The Nightmare Before Christmas; I can go on and on. Aside from his great directing, he also always has great casts. Nobody makes films like this man, and I love him for it.

9. Steven Spielberg - Ok, he’s extremely mainstream. But look at his filmography and then argue with me. Can’t be fucked with. Also, he’s a Jew, so, brownie points.

8. David Lynch - David Lynch is what I call a 90/10 guy, or maybe even a 95/5 guy, meaning that roughly 90% of people do not understand his work and absolutely hate his films, and the other 5 or 10%, whichever you like, just gets it. He’s dark, his films are surreal, and there isn’t a human being that ever existed that understands how to scare the shit out of people using this medium better than him. Watch Blue Velvet or the Twin Peaks mini series to ease yourself into his style and you might just fall in love with his work.

7. Francis Ford Coppola - Godfather and Godfather Part II. Apocalypse Now. The Conversation. Nuff said.

6. Martin Scorcese - I love Martin Scorcese, and not just because he shot me a friend request on MySpace or because he has the best looking eyebrows of all the great directors. The Last Temptation of Christ is one of my favorite films, even with Harvey Keitel portraying Judas like he was born in Bensonhurst instead of Israel. Throw Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, and Raging Bull in the mix, and you have yourself the sixth greatest director of all time.

5. Ingmar Bergman - Watch Persona, and then try to watch any film made after it with a multiple personality twist ending. Yes, they all copied Ingmar Bergman. A bit too deep for the likes of Willis, Bergman directed a plethora of great films that never would have come out of a place like Hollywood. There’s a reason Woody Allen always references him in his films- Ingmar Bergman is genius.

4. Akira Kurosawa - Ikiru, or “To Live”, in English, is a beautiful film that can only be described as life changing. Kurosawa also directed another one of my all time favorites, Seven Samurai, as well as The Lower Depths and Throne of Blood. Don’t expect to see Tom Cruise in any of these films, even though he is technically the last samurai.

3. Stanley Kubrick - R.A. The Rugged Man isn’t the only Stanley Kubrick fan out there. 2001, A Space Odyssey, Full Metal Jacket, A Clockwork Orange, Spartacus, and The Shining. Need I say more? I could, but I won’t. Check him out because he simply is one of the best.

2. Federico Fellini - Another Woody Allen favorite, Fellini’s two greatest works, in my most modest opinion, were 8 ½ and La Dolce Vita. One of the first directors to really create a surreal atmosphere within his films, Fellini was an absolutely brilliant film maker who was maybe the best ever at conveying his message and his characters’ emotions through the camera. Also check out Toby Dammit if you are a fan of the macabre. H.P. Lovecraft would have been proud.

1. Alfred Hitchcock - Wow, now that should stir up some controversy. No director is more imitated than Hitchcock. His family should be getting royalties from about 60% of today’s Hollywood

Artie Lange walks off the Howard Stern Show

Adam Schleichkorn ,
For those of you who don't already know, the great Artie Lange walked off the Howard Stern Show yesterday, and "resigned" after a fight with his assistant Teddy on the air. Howard even pulled the replay of the show for the rest of the day, which normally could've been heard an additional 3 times after it was first aired live. I understand why he didn't want people to hear it, and I didn't even get to hear it. Of course though, since they totally disregard their enormous presence on Youtube (illegally uploaded clips by fans), the full breakdown was available almost instantly after it happened. Out of my huge amount of respect to Howard, I won't post the links, or any real details, but I'll just say that they are not hard to find at all. If I was in charge of his Youtube game, this would never happen, but that's a different story.

Anyway, let the speculation began. It always comes from people who never listen to the show, like This Article from Newsday, where they say "Teddy, who is affectionately called "Teddy Microphone" around the studio". Any Stern fan knows that John Hein, the host of the wrap-up show is the only person to ever refer to Teddy as that. I mean come on, check at least one source. Steve Lankford of Howard 100 News released a news update saying that Artie and Teddy were both on the plane to go to Amsterdam (for Jason's bachelor party; the reason why the fight started), and still not talking to each other. I just hope Artie doesn't really leave the show, as it would take a huge hit, but that's also what everyone said when Jackie left. Jackie who? Exactly.

'The Grid' Could Soon Make the Internet Obsolete

Adam Schleichkorn
From FOXNews.com - The Internet could soon be made obsolete. The scientists who pioneered it have now built a lightning-fast replacement capable of downloading entire feature films within seconds. At speeds about 10,000 times faster than a typical broadband connection, “the grid” will be able to send the entire Rolling Stones back catalogue from Britain to Japan in less than two seconds.

The latest spin-off from Cern, the particle physics centre that created the web, the grid could also provide the kind of power needed to transmit holographic images; allow instant online gaming with hundreds of thousands of players; and offer high-definition video telephony for the price of a local call.

This is the future being previewed and created for us, right in front of our eyes. Just listen to Professor Tony Doyle, technical director of the grid project, as he explains some of it's potential - “Holographic video conferencing is not that far away. Online gaming could evolve to include many thousands of people, and social networking could become the main way we communicate. The history of the internet shows you cannot predict its real impacts but we know they will be huge.

Who knows when this is going to actually be a reality, but it seems like these advancements happen sooner than the people creating them even anticipate. All I know is that when I first started grad school about 2 and a half years ago, we were shown a video that introduced the specific touch screen technology, that is now seen on the iphone. This idea was portrayed like it was to be available in 5 years, while it actually only took a year and a half. Science damn you! Anyway, check out the link to the full article - http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,347212,00.html

8 Arrested in Filmed Beating of Teenage Girl



Eight teenagers have been arrested after filming the beating of another teen and threatening to post the video on the Internet, Florida police said. 6 girls were involved in the beating, while 2 guys stood look-out. At one point, which wasn't caught on tape, they beat her until she was unconscious, and when she woke up, they started beating her again. Her father said that he's never seen anyone that disfigured, when he arrived at the hospital.

What a bunch of little bitches these girls are. The girl who got beaten was lured there, because these girls wanted to make a popular youtube and myspace video. I feel terrible for this poor girl, and her parents, and I really think that these kids need to do some time at whatever level. These fight videos are always so fucked up, I'd much rather see these kids out there fence plowing.

Patrick Ewing Jr. Behind-the-back Dunk

Adam Schleichkorn ,
From the college basketball slam dunk contest, Patrick Ewing Jr. puts the ball behind his back mid-air, for one of the sickest dunks of all-time!



It was also just announced last night that, his father, Patrick Ewing, is elected into the hall of fame. One of my favorite basketball players ever. He carried the Knicks on his back for so many years, and they still haven't been the same since he left. He's in some great company in this 2008 class of hall-o-famers, including Hakeem Olajuwon, Adrian Dantley, Pat Riley, and the great Dicky V, Dick Vitale, who is shown to the left breaking down at the announcement (rightfully so).

Savage Speaks: Chris Kanyon

Marc Muchnik
Kanyon. Who betta than Kanyon? Chris Kanyon the wrestler first entered my radar in the mid 90s for a WCW Saturday Night jobber tag team known as Men at Work. And if you thought that a construction gimmick wouldn't light the world on fire, you'd be right. While we're on the subject, lets think about forming a Construction faction. You could have such luminaries as Road Block, Man's Man William Regal, Big Josh. You could even bring in the Union and have them feud. Yay!!! A year or so later, WCW, in the midst of the real boon of the NOW, 97 or so, started building up to what undoubtedly would be the biggest wrestling event in the history of our sport: the arrival of Glacier. Glacier ended up being a huge disappointment, as the faux sub zero karate gimmick was somewhat insulting and Glacier had the exact opposite of charisma, whatever that is. But what we did get out of it, was at least SOME exposure for Chris Kanyon. As a Halloween costumed wrestler from Glacier's past called Mortis. I admit I really liked his music, James Vandenburg as a manager and even his association with Wrath. However, the ONLY person Kanyon would ever wrestle would be Glacier, who he was usually jobbed out to. Gotta protect those main eventers, Big Sexy, Lex Luthore, Dennis Rodman. Then followed Kanyon's association with Raven and the flock, and that was all confusing but Raven was always cool, so that was a step up. I'll never forget when Kanyon and Raven are at Raven's mansion and Raven's mom tells Kanyon to look after Scott. Touching. Then came the jersey triad and I have to say, Kanyon, Bigelow and DDP, while maybe a decent idea on paper, formed a pretty goofy tandem. I remember them being destroyed by an ancient Hogan and Goldberg. Inexplicable, but that's WCW for ya.

Kanyon had some terrific moves in the ring, and was termed the innovator of offense. He does get criticized for maybe not having as much match psychology but I always loved his creativity. My friends and I would always watch and comment how Kanyon would invent a new move every week. He played the smarmy heel role best. If marketed right, this guy could be a money pit. He took fantastic bumps as well, which is a huge plus. His prominent lisp was a hindrance to his promo ability and maybe his ability to be taken that seriously. He did get the crowd chanting who better than Kanyon. Crowd: Everybody! Savage (Fuck crowd) Nobody!

WWE had Kanyon and of course jobbed him to the moon, and I believe he's been saying now that his being homosexual was one of the reasons he was forced out. Whatever it was I think it's a crying shame because the man had potential and could take a mean bump. At least he added some years onto his life by quitting now. Ladies of Gentleman, the Innovator of Offense, Kannnnyon!!!!!

(lyrics)
i'm just gonna walk around, i'm just gonna wander, i saw you in a magazine, saw you in the summer, you said you wanna be with me and stay with me, and love me forever, i need a brand new start, i can't wake the river from it's water bed, i can't make history take back what he said, i can't take the ocean away from his moon, i can't take my eyes off of you, i'm just gonna hang around, and serve no purpose, nothing is stirring in this house, like it was christmas, but i'm not giving anything and nothing's on my wishlist, i'm an old man with a k-9 heart, i n eed a brand new start. i jumped in the shower to get clean, but you know in one more hour i'll be dirty again, you got the body of a bass and the soul matches the face and that's so hard to find in these troubled times, the mind of a teacher you make me believe you, now won't you believe me too

Basketball in the Face Posted @ on205th.com

Check out the post from on205th.com where they put up the infamous Basketball in the Face video, which I also posted below. They kept it short and sweet, saying "The iffy commentary is more than made up for by the slo-mo replays", which is so funny to me, because everyone seems to be hating on Marc the Savage's commentating!

The Top 10 Hottest Females Of All Epochs

Dan Taft
This list took me a long damn time to compile. I researched, looked through many, many photos, and came to several conclusions. The first thing I shall conclude is that making lists can sometimes be difficult, so comment all you want, but you readers are just a bunch of lazy good-for-nothings who cast down your worthless criticisms from the peanut gallery, Tom. Second, this is my show, so I’ll list what I damn well please. And finally, your opinions don’t really matter, because I’m the smart one and I’m simply more cultured than you are. On with my list…

10. Jessica Biel - She’s hot, you’re ugly.


9. Gene Tierney - Most famous for her role as Laura Hunt in the 1944 film “Laura,” which is a film noir masterpiece, Gene Tierney was a troubled actress who also happened to be one of the top 10 hottest females of all epochs, as I once put it right now.


8. Angelina Jolie - Billy Bob Thornton must be spinning in his grave right now. What a moron.


7. Stacey Dash - Yes, she’s the actress from Clueless; so what? I can’t believe Murray hit that! Lucky bastard…


6. Cindy Crawford - I was in lover with her when I was about 4. She was a dime back in the day- if you disagree you are a stupid, stupid man.


5. Halle Berry - The first time I saw Boomerang I really thought Robin Givins was the really sexy one- and she is. But in the time since I have grown into quite the young man and I have realized the err of my ways. When Halle Berry’s jubilees were exposed in Swordfish, which was a terrible movie, I was happy for a moment.


4. Jessica Alba - I’ve never seen anything she’s done except Sin City, but I love her.


3. Aishwarya Rai - A Bollywood starlet, Rai is an incredibly sexy little vixen who I would love to be arranged to marry, if someone can get that in the works for me.


2. Sophia Loren - So fly when she was young; I should have went on that date with her back in ’62 when I had the chance.


1. Adriana Lima - Ok, in all fairness I didn’t even know who this was until today. But I would renounce my love for Jessica Alba and stand up Loren all over again for a shot at this broad. Haysu Kristo!

The Guitar Hero videos are becoming more and more prevalent across the web, and they're posted by some of the largest toolsheds in the history of the universe. With that said, these videos are actually mildly entertaining. It really does interest me that these dorks are so good at this game, it must be pretty tough to get that good. All I know is, if we grew up during this time, Hidden Track TV's Dan Taft would be one of these dorks, instead of being a Mario dork. Anyway, here's the latest self-proclaimed best guitar heroer in the world, followed by someone who is just as good, but kills it with the "stage" presence!
