While You Were Sleeping, David Bowie, Gary Oldman And Marion Cotillard Were Offending The Church
Here are some things that happened overnight. Featuring Robin Williams vs Kim Kardashian, new Lonely Island, and another star-studded Bowie film clip.
Here’s Isla Fisher In A Silver Swimsuit Being Eaten By Piranhas While Handcuffed In A Tank:
It’s the first four minutes of Now You See Me, featuring Fisher, Jesse Eisenberg, Dave Franco (James’ brother), Morgan Freeman, Mark Ruffalo, Michael Caine and Woody Harrelson. Yes, it’s another film about magicians – but it actually looks kind of compelling.
The film was directed by Louis Leterrier (The Incredible Hulk, Clash Of The Titans), and is due out in the States at the end of May.
A Priest, A Nun And David Bowie Walk Into A Brothel…
Hoo boy, lots of layers of meaning in the film clip for ‘The Next Day’. Also, lots of celebrities: Gary Oldman, David Bowie and Marion Cotillard.
Oldman plays a priest, enraged by the false prophetising of Bowie, who’s on stage at a seedy bar as Cotillard drinks and looks sultry and eventually gets totally stigmata’d. Also there is a hairy-eyeballed nun and a sexy saint and a drunk cardinal and a creepy flagellant? It ends with Bowie thanking everybody very politely.
The clip was removed from YouTube shortly after being uploaded, either because of the breasts or because of the religious symbolism. In any case, it’s back up now.
New Lonely Island!
Yesterday, Lonely Island announced that The Wack Album would be dropping on June 11 and, until then, they’d be releasing a new song or video every Wednesday. They call it ‘Wack Wednesdays’.
Here’s their first outing, which follows an especially good episode of Zach Galifianakis’ ‘Between Two Ferns‘, who grills a delightfully unimpressed James Franco. The Lonely Island are Galifianakis’ musical guests, and they perform the apt ‘Spring Break Anthem’ — which starts out predictably enough, before taking a fairly unexpected turn.
No spoilers, but watch out for Ed Norton.

You Must Watch Jimmy Fallon vs John Krasinski:
It’s a lip-sync battle, featuring Das EFX, Katy Perry, Boys II Men and Run DMC, and it RULES.
Krasinski, whose The Office will be farewelling us all next Thursday, is really good at undoing the button on his suit jacket.
Robin Williams, Still Bringing The Lolz.
