You’ll Shit Your Pants Facts About: “The Avengers”

With the premiere of “The Avengers” fast approaching, we asked Humourisms reporter and Comedian George Fox to give us another volume of his insightful series:

You’ll Shit Your Pants Facts

1: Captain America

Surprisingly, Much of the focus in The New Avengers movie will be on Captain America and his difficult time adjusting to life in the 21st century. Many who have seen early cuts of the movie were made a little uncomfortable with how ,early in the movie, Captain America kept asking the character of Nick Fury to “get me whoever is really in charge…” while also handing his jacket to Black Widow and remarking “..be a good girl and hang them up for me dear. And some tea wouldnt go amiss, eh sweet cheeks?”

In fact, much of the movie is spent with The Avengers trying to apologise for remarks made by Captain America, after he happens upon a Gay Pride Parade, where, for some reason, Thor is a big hit. Continue reading

Top 5 Ways Michael Bay Will Ruin Your Childhood TV Shows.

 This week Michael Bay revealed that his reimagining of the Teenage Mutant Ninja/Hero Turtles will recast them as Aliens. We asked Comedian and Humourisms Reporter George Fox to take a look at ways Michael Bay could destroy our other childhood favourites.

1: “Hey Arnold”

Apparently Michael Bay wants to relaunch 90′s Nickelodeon cartoon “Hey Arnold” with a brand new origin story. In his new version main character, Arnold is abducted by aliens and has his DNA spliced with that of an american football which he was holding at the time of his abduction. This leads to his charcter waking up in bed the morning after being abducted with an actual football for a head. Much hilarity ensues as he is hunted by an american government sanctioned android codenamed H.E.L.G.A. Which stands for:

High

Entrapment

Likelihood

Government

Android

There’s also a black kid so people don’t think the movie is racist. But like all Michael bay movies, just one. Anymore would be ridiculous. Apparently.

The Problem With Netflix……

Comedian George Fox returns with a guide to some of the more awkward facets of everyones favourite new way to waste time……. Netflix.

Well, it’s one week on from the launch of Netflix’s video on demand service here in Ireland. We’ve learned alot in that time. Such as how to pretend you’re doing important work on your computer, while actually watching the movie “Spaceballs” and LOVING. EVERY. SECOND.

“Yes, Yes You Are.”

My main issue with Netflix though, is that with such a massive library of titles to choose from, it can be quite daunting trying to find something you might enjoy. But Netflix has thought of this, and so built into the website, is a handy little survey, based on your favourites types of films. You can choose genres, sub genres, themes, years of release, e.t.c.

Indeed, this is a fine idea, as it allows Netflix to specify the types of movies you want to be shown, while also decreasing the amount of times you have to see movies that are crimes against humanity displayed in your “movies you might like” page.

“Truly, There Is No God!”

What Video Games Taught Us: L.A. Noire

Its a new year for Humourisms.com, and we are happy to welcome back comedian George Fox with his new series looking at gaming lessons learned in 2011.

TITLE: L.A. Noire

WHAT IT TAUGHT US:

- ALWAYS Fuck Around With Crime Scenes:

If L.A Noire made anything clear to gamers in 2011, it was that cops in the 40′s were dickheads. In between driving around town running over pedestrians and stealing….. ahem sorry, “commandeering” other citizens vehicles you would also every now and then have to visit a crime scene. Now you or I may think a crime scene is the kinda place where caution must be taken not to destroy evidence or hamper the investigation by meddling with the body before its been checked for finger prints.

“Fuck that”, say cops of the 1940′s. And then I imagine they go back to drinking their malt, and talking about how everyone on their apartment building floor are “rubes”. I sure hope thats not a racial slur that I’m not aware of.

Evidence can go suck an egg as far as these cops care. You wanna find a criminal? Then go get handsy with that dead, naked body. But only after rummaging through the contents of a nearby bin,and don’t even think about wiping your hands you prissy princess!
