Angry Boss - Will Ferrell
My favourite funny bloke at the moment, Mr. Will Ferrell, doing the angry boss thing! Star of my film of the moment "Anchorman, The Legend of Ron Burgundy". Not many people I know have seen or heard of this film but I suppose it is quite "American" and hasn't been pushed much here.
Now initially this will make you laugh but ultimately you will be impressed by the amount of time this man has wasted of his life perfecting this! Guitar Hero II is a game for the XBox 360 and is extremely popular with wannabe guitar hero's the world over. It works in a similar but totally different way to those dance games you see at arcades everywhere, with people desperately trying to break necks, arms, legs, will to live etc. You have to 'play' the right button at the right time to keep up with the song blah blah! It is quite an expensive game at 60 of your English type pounds but you do get a guitar sized controler to use with the game (otherwise it's just a collection of tunes you already own!). The controller is sort of guitar like except it has buttons up the fret board (just the 4) and a funny arrangement for strumming. Youtube has a few more vids of various lunatics (in a variety of costumes) playing the game some funny, some very sad! This video is 7 minutes long, so if you have that amount of time free to waste, then this is actually quite impressive!
Enjoy! All those who wish to rock the world, unite!
I don't know if you happen to know who Zach Braff is (get out from under that rock occasionally!) but if you don't, he is one of the stars of TV's Scrubs. A tremendously funny program set in an American hospital with the odd subtle nod to M.A.S.H.
Zach is very good and I like him a lot but - not as much as this guy!
