I just added a new photo album to the Pictures section of Hip Today. It's at the bottom of the list, labeled Random 3. You should go check it out.
And now, let's hear from Seanbaby on Green Lantern: Green Lantern's ring was the most powerful weapon in the universe except against the color yellow. I'm not kidding, his weakness was the color yellow. You might think he'd try to keep something like that secret, but there is nothing Green Lantern liked to talk about more. He'd wave a fist at the bad guys and shout, "Justice will prevail today, villains! Unless you learn that my power energy cannot affect that which is yellow!" And to make Green Lantern the most unlucky person in the universe, his nemesis Sinestro had a ring that made things that were yellow. That's like twin brothers fighting, only one gets baseball bat with spikes and has a giant purple head.

I got an e-mail a few days ago from someone telling me of a band that was going to be coming here very soon, but I can't remember who sent it to me, or what band it was. So if you were that person, or if you know of some good bands that are going to be coming here soon, please please call me or e-mail me and let me know.
Also, in other music related news, the good people at 94.1 The Buzz have been good enough to listen to my requests that they start playing Weezer's Keep Fishin' more often. This pleases me greatly. So if you're in my area, keep your ears open for it.

You know, I had heard that this whole Dance Dance Revolution thing was earning it's title as it was truly becoming a revolution of the dance dancing variety. However, I had no idea that the people that were telling me this weren't lying until within the course of a week I saw these machines in every arcade I happened by with throngs of sweaty teenagers huddled about them like apes around the Monolith in 2001 (A Space Odyssey). And since this revolution is now upon us, I would be remiss in my duties if I didn't help you get to know the people you'll be facing in the Dance Dance Battles that are sure to take place much sooner than we would hope.
The all new He-Man and the Masters of the Universe cartoon debuts on Cartoon Network this Friday, and I don't think I should have to say anything else about the subject. I'm going to trust that you're intelligent enough to know that you shouldn't just want to watch it, you should need to watch it. Here's three pictures from the show for you to check out as well.

Since I know you kids look to me to help you form your opinions on what's good and what is not in the world of music (I'm kidding of course), I felt it was my duty to make sure all of you know about two bands.
The first one is a band out of Alabama whom I have been a really big fan of for quite some time now called Pain. You should be able to check some of their stuff out on their site, but if you can't listen to any of it just go ahead and buy one of their CDs from their merchandise section. It'll be well worth it I assure you.
The other band is Kevin Martin and the HiWatts. For those of you that were Candlebox fans (I count myself as a very vocal member of that category) you may recognize that name. Regardless of whether you recognize it or not, or if you liked Candlebox or not, you should check this band out. Choice rock and roll my friends.

For those of you that didn't get to make it to the San Diego Comicon this year, but would have liked to, here's a nice rundown of all the cool (and lame) toys that were on display this year.
Speaking of rundowns, it's time for me to start with my promised re-telling of some of the antics from my recent trip to Florida. First up on the agenda is a little bit of business that I'm going to give a brief set-up. I had a yellow legal pad with me in the car, and as we were driving down, Danny said something really funny and I said "Holy crap, you've got to write that down." So for the rest of the trip anytime something funny would be said or a funny town or business was seen, Danny would write it down. So here are some of the highlights...
From Noon to 5 AM it's ballz out for Krystal!
The Frankin F'in' Mint: We know you want this Monopoly board with gold pieces and this knife with a painting on it.
(as we were in or approaching Birmingham) I don't give a Birmingdamn.
Carol's Act of Faith Hair Care
Sneaky Pete's
Mr. Bottle Shoppe
Gay Week's Flowers
(as a Volvo big rig passed us) Danny: I want a Volvo Big Rig. He's probably got a kitchen in there.
Godfather's Pizza
(after seeing a sign proclaiming the Ultimate BLT was available at Arby's) Danny: I've searched the seven seas, for the Ultimate BLT.
(as we were entering Atlanta) Danny: We comin' up into Hotlanta, straight out of Pimpfis, TN.
(to the tune of Big Pimpin') Q-Tippin' I be cleanin' wax, Q-Tippin' I be playin' my sax
Danny: I'm the Coleslaw king of Sea World
Splendid China Theme Park
Vote for Dr. Karve
Big Rascal Pit Bar-B-Q
More to come...

As I was driving a few minutes ago I realized that I've seen a lot of good movies here as of late, or within the time frame of this year or so anyway. My point is I felt like listing as many of the good movies I've seen that I feel are worth you checking out: Panic Room, The Sum of All Fears, Lilo and Stitch, Death to Smoochy, A Beautiful Mind, The Bourne Identity, Reign of Fire, Insomnia, Ice Age, Signs, wait I just blanked out... umm.. well crap.
Speaking of Signs, I went and saw that flick with Corey on Tuesday night, and it was as good as he said it would be. I'm really not going to spoil any of it for those of you who haven't seen it, but I will say that I wouldn't recommend seeing it if you are the type of person who gets movies stuck in their heads like I am, because I've been scared to be in my house by myself at night now ever since I saw it. Really, really well done flick though. Maybe too well done, the guy (writer, producer, director M. Night Shm.. I don't know how to spell it) is a freakin' genius.

Wow, I've really slacked off on the site since I've gotten back from Florida. I apologize to both of you who check the page out on a quasi-regular basis for being so busy that I've neglected you. I'll try to make it up to you starting now with a link to a wallpaper of possibly my favorite picture of Superman EVER.
I'm still working on figuring out my new camera and I haven't had a chance to figure out how to upload pics to the site yet, but as soon as I do (which could be in the next few minutes) I'll let you know where and how you can check them out. Until then you can check this out.

I'll miss you all, and of course I'll miss making your lives just a little hipper. If at all possible I'll update the site while I'm down there or on the road. See you again soon, with lots of pictures and tales to tell.

I know this could very well change at some point in the future, but for the moment I'd just like all of you to know that if I should die before I have a chance to say other wise I'd like for my tombstone to say, "I Got Wet Without Even Trying." In a cool but dignified font if possible. So yeah, if I die anytime soon or before I've said I want something else instead be sure to tell whoever is making my tombstone arrangements.

I saw Reign of Fire last night, and I don't know if any of you give two monkeys about my opinion, but if you do I'd definitely say go see it. Best dragons ever. Christian Bale would make a good choice for Batman in the upcoming Batman vs Superman movie (as other websites have already noted). I'd defintiely go see it again. Speaking of movies I'd see again, I've seen Lilo and Stitch twice now and I'd probably go see it again as well, if I didn't already have tickets for Lil Bow Wow's basketball opus, Like Mike.

You know kids, it's come to my attention that some of you are of the opinion that sometimes I don't update the site enough. You may be right, but there's a reason for it. As much as I'd like to think that all of you great guys and gals check the site everyday, I know from the counter that there are only a handful of people who do so. Since that is the case, sometimes I don't like to add new stuff right away because I'm afraid the stuff from the day before or days before won't get seen. Does that make sense? Well, my point is I'm going to try to update as frequently as possible, but you've got to promise me you're going to scan down the page when you come here and check out the stuff you missed... unless of course you're one of those glorious people that checks everyday, those people are free to do whatever the hell they want and God bless 'em for doing it... namely Jimbo, now that's a Friend of Hip Today.

Take the quiz here!
I played kickball again earlier tonight (Sunday night, though it's technically Monday now). We had twelve people playing.. I think that may be a record for us. I have to admit that while the idea of having a lot of people who weren't part of the "regulars" wasn't something I was looking forward to, having a ton of help when it came to fielding was a very pleasant experience. Dustin gets better every time we play though, and that scares me. Keeping him and Danny's sister (I know her name but I'm not sure how to spell it so I'm not going to risk it) on opposite teams proved to be a good idea though... to be honest though sometimes it seems like he could play the entire outfield by himself.

To prove I don't hate Josh, here's a website I think he'd probably like.
We can look forward to Gamecube games for both The Hulk and Daredevil to coincide with their upcoming feature films... and even though he doesn't have a movie coming up you can look forward to an Aquaman game as well.
While this is awfully cute, I hope Warner Bros. and Cartoon Network are having to pay Jim Henson's kids for ripping off his ideas. I imagine the pitch meeting for this show went like "Hey, everyone loved the Muppet Babies, why can't we rip that off?"

Before I get to this other thing I had to say I have to make sure that you all check this out. I'm not sure what to think of it yet, like whether I would give it a thumbs up or down since it's still a little early in the goings to do so intelligently, but I will tell you that when I heard THE line... well, it almost brought me to tears of nostalgic, days of my youth-filled, joy...
By the Power of Grayskull...
As you may or may not know, my soul (that is as it pertains to my employment) is now owned by Barnes and Noble, or more specifically one of it's subsidiaries, GameStop/FunCo Land. That being the case I find myself unable to be more excited by and more interested in the subject of video games. Not that I didn't like, enjoy, maybe even love video games before, but now I find my days spent with talk of the differences in Halo and Gunvalkryie on Xbox (a system that prior to this job I would have avoided talking about for any reason), and why I need a Neo Geo cabinet arcade system in my house, and how great this Christmas is going to be for Nintendo and it's "Gaming Cube." I didn't used to talk about things like this... or if I did it was at least much much less frequently and with much less fervor. But now that it's upon me like a white upon rice, I'm beginning to like it ... and that frightens me.

which Episode II character are you?
Probably the greatest Jedi Knight of all. Like Obi Wan, you are wise and keep your feet on the ground at all times. You will not be outsmarted by anyone. You are always faithful to your friends. Be careful though, danger lurks around every corner - you could even be betrayed by those closest to you.
I'm reposting this entry because I really want you to read it...
You may not know Tara, but whether or not you do is not what's at hand at the moment. No, what's at hand is the fact that she had her wisdom teeth out Wednesday and I bet she's prolly not feeling that great, because I know I wasn't after I had mine out. So this is the deal if you're reading this you should send her some kind of "feel better/make her smile" e-mail. You'll both be glad you did. I'm serious, I'd really like for some of you kids to do this even if you don't know her, just say you're doing it because this website said you should.
And hey, speaking of Trainspotting (as an entry below this was), if anyone has that flick and wants to let me borrow it or wants to buy it for me I'd really really appreciate it. I can't offer anything in return, except possibly a drawing or some kind of sex payoff, but if you're down with either of those in exchange for a copy of that movie please let me know.

Darth Vader
Tall, powerful, and the darkest of the dark. You've got armies, fleets, and the dark side of the Force wrapped around your little finger, but you still have a soft spot for that little wuss you call "son." How sweet.
Take the Imperial Test at Bucketheads!
Not much else to say really. I've seen Spider-Man and Attack of the Clones both twice now and I'm not sure which one I'll see again next... is that crazy? I can't even tell anymore. Anyway, if you're reading this please do me a favor and tell a friend (or a stranger) that you think might enjoy it, about me and my little website silliness. I don't know why, but I'd like for the site to grow a little more and develop a slightly larger following that would merit me dropping the cash to pay for some upgrades. Just an idea...

If you've been around me lately, you've probably heard me yammering on and on about this game that's coming out for the PS2 on my birthday called Kingdom Hearts. If you haven't been forced to hear me go on and on about it then I'll let you listen to me now. It's a collaboration between Squaresoft (the creators of Final Fantasy) and Disney. Not since peanut butter and chocolate got together has their been such an awesome alliance of almost unholy proportions. Then, to make my opinion of the game even higher, I e-mailed Gabe from Penny Arcade when I heard that he had a Japanese copy of the game, and told him how I was thinking of getting a PS2 just for that game. He told me I would not be disappointed. That my friends is good enough for me. Here's his review of the Japanese version.

Seanbaby is back to save us from ourselves! Off you go now.
(In case you were thinking of not checking Seanababy's article out, here's a quote from it: If you can sue someone to put a missile on things you don't want destroyed, I hope you're ready for me to ride a bike that launches heat-seeking rockets and eat out of a lunch box that can shoot down helicopters. If all goes well, I'll have also sued to include hover jets and a sno-cone maker. You see, by believing in yourself and trusting in the system, stupid lawsuits just might lead to a paradise of snack-dispensing, rocket-launching vehicles after all.)

I've begun the process of talking with the kids from the band Miles From Somewhere about becoming their new singer. Notice, I said "begun" because nothing has really taken place yet other than me saying, "Someone told me you guys were looking for a new singer and that I should give you a call." and one of them saying "Cool, I can't talk now because I'm studying for a final, but we'll talk more this weekend." That's really about the extent of it, but maybe something cool will come of it. Never hurts to be in another band.. just ask Blink 182's drummer.

"When a man lies he murders a part of the world." - Merlin (in Excalibur)
There are many truths in this world we live in, but one that will probably always hold true is that if Pixar makes a movie, I will go see it. I'm hoping all of you feel the same way, because I just got a glimpse of the superb cinematic goodness that they will be unleashing on us for the next three years.
Can this be true?! George Lucas admitting The Phantom Menace wasn't as great as he told us it was?!
I don't know how many of you are into that show Buffy, but I read an interesting rumor/clue/teaser about it from one of the shows producers that said the death at the end of this season will be the end of one of the couples, but will also be the beginning of "SuperXander". I have no idea what that means, but I like the sound of it for some reason. Even though I'm sure there is no connection between the two, the picture they showed of Xander (or Nicolas Brendan if you prefer) really made me stop and realize he'd make a pretty decent Superman for the upcoming flick. He couldn't be any worse than Brendan Frasier. In fact, I'm going to go as far as to say that he'd be a whole lot better.
If you're like me you're over 6 feet tall and named Chris... but you're also probably excited about the Spider-Man movie. Know what else I'm excited about? The Daredevil flick starring our very own sweet Benji-boy, Ben Affleck. I remember before we saw the first pictures of Spidey's costume there was all kinds of debates and such over how they were going to ruin it, and as of late the exact same thing has been going on in with Daredevil. Well, apparently this is the first actual picture of the costume. It's not the greatest clarity, but I still think it looks like it could be pretty cool. Here's another version of the same picture that's a little clearer. What do you think?

If it makes any of you feel any better, I'm feeling pretty friendless here lately. I certainly miss the whole having friends thing... a lot. So yeah.. I guess that's all I have to say really as far as that goes.
Also, for the none of you that care, we wrapped shooting on "Escape" last Friday. It was a pretty long day, or at least it felt like it at times, but it was most definitely worth it. Felt good to have accomplished something worth doing. The editing process is going as quickly as Danny can make it go, and I think he's doing a great job with it so far. The rough cut we've got of some of the scenes is so good musically it would make you cry. If you'd like to check out the pictures from our the final couple of days of shooting you can do so by clicking here or here. Hope you like them.

Saying that I was "unsure" what to think about the news that McG (the guy that directed Charlie's Angels) would be directing the new Superman movie, would probably be about the nicest thing I could say about my initial reaction. Regardless, here's some more from the man on his plans.
Seanbaby on Wonder Woman: "Maybe this is another gender double standard like how boys can have sex with girls without being called lesbians, but Wonder Woman should have at least put on a skirt. It looked like she was working for tips. If I saw her in a club, I'd say "Hey, give me change for that five, bartender. This next dancer looks cheap.""

All the news that's fit to print in an Andrew W.K. world! Andrew's on Ozzfest and I'm soooo there.
The Philosophy of Andrew W.K.
Target stores nationwide have Andrew W.K.'s new CD I Get Wet on sale this week for only $7.99. Do us both a favor and go get it.
Hip Today's very own Ben Affleck has a new movie coming out this Friday with none other than Mr. BMF, Samuel L. Jackson. It's called Changing Lanes and it looks like it could be pretty decent. No of the rest of The Regulars seem all that excited about it, but Benji-boy and Sam Jackson seems too good to pass up if you ask me.

ANDREW W.K. If you don't already think that this guy is something really special, watch the video for "Party Hard". This guy's recently released album has three songs with the word party in the title. THREE!! I don't see how you could not want to go buy his CD after hearing that song. Screw this noise I'm gonna go party hard. Smell ya later.

For those that are interested, the destructive symphony known as Megadeth has broken up after 20 years of scaring parents. This is apparently due to an injury sustained by founder and frontman Dave Mustaine that has caused serious nerve damage to his left hand and arm.
I don't know whether to be pleased or very disturbed.
OH MY GOD!! Clearly I'm dreaming... because if I'm not and that and this are real then the world may be getting too cool for me to handle. Not only did I see this today but I also saw huge Spider-Man displays at the grocery store, Hardee's, Wal-Mart, and Target... and if these surely aren't signs of a new world order of coolness then I don't know what is. (If anyone is curious I wear a medium in t-shirts...)
I'm quoting this straight from CHUD, which I don't like to do (make direct quotes I mean), but it was so shocking that I had to share it with you. It's about Dolph Lundgren...
"Born Hans Lundgren in Stockholm, Sweden, Dolph has a master's degree in chemical engineering from the University of Sydney and was awarded a Fullbright Scholarship to MIT. He also attended Stockholm's Royal Institute of Technology, Clemson, and Washington State and can speak Swedish, English, French, German and Japanese. On top of that, he is working on his third-degree black belt, won both the European and Australian full-contact karate championships and was team leader of the USA pentathalon team at the '96 summer olympics."
Holy crap.. all I can say is this guy should be ruling the world not making straight to video flicks... or maybe that's all part of his master plan.
Sweet jumping mugwumps! A really great comic (that I happened to enjoy) called The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is being made into a film. I was already excited about the fact that Sean Connery has signed on to play one of the lead roles, but I learned tonight that Eddie Izzard may also be playing one of the main roles in the film. God bless America.. or as Eddie would say "God dress America."

Happy Easter everybody!
To celebrate this glorious holiday let's hear from Seanbaby on the subject of The Flash :
"You've probably seen normal everyday people suddenly go into an unstoppable rage because someone took 1.5 seconds too long to figure out the light turned green. I've personally broken my face headbutting an ATM in nearly every state in our great country because sometimes I swear the machine has to send a slow-moving ATM troll through a series of secret underground tunnels to find my money. The Flash moves at about the speed of light, so in the one second it took for you to freak out in a movie line, approximately one hundred and five years went by from his point of view. That means if you take all the time there's been since Jesus was tortured to death to right now and add in the thousand years before Jesus where people worshipped half-eaten caveman babies, that's how long a thirty second Pepsi girl commercial lasts for the Flash."
God bless you Seanbaby.
Awesome awesome awesome. A thirty-five minute interview with Gary Cherone.
You can also download Gary's new song "Need I Say More". It's a pretty tight song that some might call a follow up to "More Than Words". It's a similar setup (only guitar and vocals) and it's about a relationship.. only this is the downside of the type of love that makes you want to sing "More Than Words" to someone.. like when it doesn't work out. Still a great song though.
Some random quotes from my little sister's website/profile that I liked or identified with...
"Without the bitter the sweet wouldn't be sweet, without the sad the happy wouldn't be happy, and without you I would not be me..."
"Don't ask the sun to always shine...It can't, the clouds exist...Don't ask the leaves not to fall...the wind exists...Dont ask me not to love... I cant YOU EXIST!"
"One day we'll look back at this and run into a parked car"
"Open minded students everywhere owe a debt of gratitude to Abercrombie and Fitch. Not since Hester Prynne has an embroidered "A" been such a clear indication of whom to avoid."
"Suicide is a way of telling God you can't fire me I quit."

You can now pre-order the new Weezer album, Maladroit through Amazon.com if you're the ordering over the internet type.
"Yeah that's gone, turn around, turn the volume down, we're counting the days down, til the day when we'll live in a video, I'll be stone faced and pale, you'll pout in stereo, twenty four hours everyday of the year, oh what fun I can't wait til the future gets here"

If you're confused as to why you aren't at the normal Hip Today page and you'd like to go there, you can do so by clicking here.
Know what I bet you'd like to hear? The new version of Burndt Jamb. Speaking of Weezer, I totally heard Dope Nose on the radio last night. How cool is that? Even weirder was how I had this dream that I was in this grocery store and heard Keep Fishin' in between two muzak songs there. Weird, eh?

See!! This here is yet another example of how evil girls are. Well, most are anyway.. it's true.
But then again, this is kind of sweet.. I guess.
Lord of the Rings you say? So who else is ready to drop about 200 bucks? (Actual price may vary.)
Who wouldn't like a mess of free comics?
So I saw that Blade movie. It was pretty good. It's not so much fine art, but it was pretty good. It was directed by Guillermo del Toro, who will be directing the big screen adaptation of Hellboy. What's more important for me to talk about though was the trailer for Jason X. That's right he's back from Hell. And in the future! And on a spaceship!! Whoo-hoo! I'm counting the days... that was sarcasm. The tagline for this flick is "Evil Gets an Upgrade." Don't worry though, I've taken the guesswork out of figuring out what the upgrade is, it's that it's going from crappy to craptacular.
Ok, remember that Jason X trailer I was talking about a few minutes ago (or seconds whatever). Ok, now imagine a new trailer that is the exact opposite... which is to say it's good. Real good. It's so damn good it's SPIDER-MAN! I honestly don't know how anyone is talking about anything but this.

This is pretty great if you enjoy the wit and wisdom of Homer Simpson.
It's a good day to take up swearing, because I was not at all excited to hear this news.
Did anyone need another reason to dislike Denzel?
I'm told this sums up drinking very nicely.
The other day I promised there would be more pictures for you to look at other than ones from our movie. So, as promised, here's a Friday Night.

If you're one of the people who was supposed to do something with me Saturday night and never called me back, today might be a good day to call me. Since words on a screen can't really give you an impression of what tone of voice I'd be using if I was just saying this to you, don't think that I'm using an angry or upset tone. Just a normal tone.
I've just heard Sum 41's song for the Spider-Man movie and I think it's pretty good. They mention bringing back the 80s, cereal, and the Legion of Doom... and that's good enough for me. Oh, and apparently they live for "rock" and it's what they're all about.

There's a fortune that a cookie gave me that I keep on my refrigerator that says, "Don't give up yet, the best is yet to come." Kinda makes you feel good doesn't it.. but then again it also told me my lucky numbers are 11 19 25 36 40 48 and 1 8 9. Stupid cookie.
Remember yesterday when I said I added like 30 new pictures to the photo album for Version 2.0 of Escape? Well, today I added somewhere around another 30. So if you want to check them out you can do that.
The Kill Everyone Project?
An interview with Chris Carabba.
If you like Star Wars and video games this might look pretty sweet to you.
Any and every Weezer fan needs to download this song. It's straight from the soundboard at the 3-20-02 Glasgow show. Many thanks to Weezur.com. (Right-click and pick Save Target As...)
