Christian Fundamentalists Suck: Part 2: The Ben Stein Saga

So, I always knew Ben Stein was a conservative. I knew he was an economic conservative. After all, we was a speech writer for Dick Nixon, probably the crookedest mofo this side of Karl Rove, but I never knew he was social fundamentalist conservative.

You know, like the bigots who think George Bush does a good job and is a good person. The one's that think homosexuals are sinners and the one's who think that Jesus buried the dinosaurs.*

Well, he's either just looking for a paycheck, or he's playing the Left Behind video Game with Kirk Cameron because he's coming out with a movie to prove that once and for all science is out to destroy God. He's got a movie coming out where he travels around and speaks about creationism LIKE IT'S A LEGITIMATE SCIENCE! It's called Expelled, and he's being touted as a rebel. I don't know about you, but I tend to agree. The first thing I think about when I see Ben Stein's name is: REBEL. Here's a look at the website.

I like how the trailer portrays the guy who makes the fantasy crack as the nutjob.

This is a subject that rattles me like no other. Fundies feel that they're being ostracized for their religious beliefs, but that's not the case at all. What's really happening is that we are making fun of you for your lack of understanding the scientific method, and we don't want to pass your ignorance on to our children. I can go on and on about this subject, but chances are, you've already got your belief system in your head and you're like President Bush--with me or against me.

*I know it doesn't say that Jesus buried the dinosaurs ANYWHERE in the Bible. I was just joking with you all. I know that it was Moses that buried them.

Greatest Ever: Al Leong

Part of the reason I wanted to start a blog was to not only get back to writing, but to recognize the people and things that make the world a better place. Thus, the Greatest Ever segments where I will proclaim a given person, place or thing to be deemed Greatest Ever.

Al Leong.

The Man. The Myth. The Legend.

This guy defined the action genre. No, not like Arnie, Sly or any of the others. Not like that. You knew you were in for an awesome action flick with an awesome henchmen if Al Leong was involved. Henchmen... Hollywood's most overlooked talent.

Let's go through some of greatest places Al's kicked ass in:


Big Trouble in Little China (Wing Kong Hatchet Man)

Die Hard (Nestle Crunch bar eating terrorist)


Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (Genghis Khan)

And let's not forget the glory that are these fine flicks that wouldn't have been the same without him:
Death Warrant (Van Damage, yo!)
They Live
Lethal Weapon

But here's the best one... Behold... Al taking on Brandon Lee in one of the greatest, most epic, martial arts epic battle ever:


I don't think this lady realizes she's going to have her face punched off in a few moments!

Al Leong is king when henchmen are concerned. You've seen him, you recognize him, and now you know him. Al Leong, you are one of the Greatest Ever.

Lucas Shot Last

I think the internet is going to break. Either that, or Indiana Jones and the City of Gods is going to be the greatest movie ever made. Why? Well, it seems that the geek forefathers are becoming what they once were.

Here's the proof:


It was taken from the set of the new Indy film. Notice anything? Well... here's a better image of the shirt Lucas is wearing:


Now, I've never been someone who's really cared about that particular change in the original Holy Trilogy, but this does say something fun to me.
