Buzz Dump: Christmas In August

*OMG. This really is like Christmas in August. Neil Patrick Harris guests on Big Brother. Bonus: his amazing pink shirt.

*A double shot of Bob Dylan. First there is his new Apple ad. Sell out? Partial sell out? You be the judge. Then there is the new Dylan video "When the Deal Does Down" staring Scarlett Johannson. Yum. And for no reason whatsoever, Ms SJ's Eternity commercial.

*I could watch this clip forever. Again, Ricky Gervais interviews Chris Martin. [You Tube]

*And I could watch this one all day as well. Kevin Spacey on Inside the Actors Studio.

*Meanwhile Mr. T has words with Superman upon his retirement. Hilarity ensues.

*My God. Have you seen the trailer for the new Kevin Costner and Ashton Kutcher Coast Guard movie? Yes, finally, a Coast Guard movie.

*Why yes, I would like to see Katherine McPhee as Wonder Woman. Yes.

*Another fall movie preview [New York Mag]

*Steve Carrell interviews himself. Double good.

*What the...holy awesome, pigs in blankets are cool again. Well, we're they ever not cool?

*This is something Vancouver desperately needs. A pirate running for office.

*Not a shock. Paris Hilton's debut CD not exactly "hot".

*These are crazy ads for Risk. People still play that?

*Another new Nike spot. Nike Air Max "Defy"

*Of course the King has an agent. Another Burger King ad.

*I've been told that if you don't listen or know of the band Land of Talk, you are not cool. In fact you will die, prematurally alone, bitter.

*And speaking of cool. There is a debate about whether Wolf Parade is cool. I'll side on the cool after seeing this video "I'll Believe in Anything" which has some amazing cannon deuls.

*Your last day of August Moment of Zen: Jem. Why was she truly outrageous exactly? Oh right, they had that crazy super computer.

Okay, that was just fun. But this was more what I was thinking to get you through the end of the day. Monty Python's international Philosophy.
