The Top Ten Most Misunderstood Movies Ever Made
We’re not talking about abstract, BS French art films or something. We’re talking Pulp Fiction, The Godfather, Scarface. The kind of movies that you assume you understand on a thematic level, but you really don’t.
Pictures: Famous People As Kids - Before the Plastic Surgery and Big Egos
Pictures of celebrities before the fame, big egos, plastic surgery and drug addictions.
Diggnation Posh Gallery (Hot!) [NSFW]
The following is a photo gallery of Posh, a SuicideGirls.com model who is currently dating our very own Kevin Rose. Posh decided to model her new Diggnation shirt in a very sexy fashion. If this gallery doesn’t sell Diggnation t-shirts, nothing will.
Man Vs Wild Exposed as more BBC programming frauds unfold.
Grylls was filmed building a raft by himself, whereas the crew had actually put it together and dismantled it beforehand, to ensure that it worked. And in a further episode, supposedly "wild" horses rounded up by Grylls had come from a local trekking facility. So why eat the bugs??

Marilyn Manson on the O'Reilly show
Marilyn Manson appears on Papa Bear's show on FOX, in what has to be possibly the most surprising, yet surreal video I have ever seen. Link goes to full video interview.

Hip Hop Sales Collapsing: "They can no longer fool the white kids."

Timbaland ripped off a track from my buddy.
He literally stole the whole musical line to build this song around. I talked to Tempest and he told me that it's no use going to court, eventhough Scene.org supplied papers saying the song got uploaded on their servers in 2000. Fighting a big corporation like Geffen costs tons of money and time, which he does not have.
TV Shows That Should Never Have Been Cancelled
Why do they keep pumping out "Apprentice" episodes no one watches (check the ratings, they don't) when they go and cancel shows like "The Tick" or "Firefly."
