Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie are really funny guys and very skilled musicians. Those two talents converged on Thursday night when their band, Flight of the Conchords, played Ellie Caulkins Opera House in Denver…. Review up now on Trashwire.com

“This is so tits!”
Diablo Cody posted this on her Twitter today:
Which reminded me of this:
Trey Parker and Matt Stone have been using “tits” as an adjective since episode 402 of South Park over 8 years ago.
It seems that many people are using “tits” as an adjective these days. In fact, if you check out Jesse Blaze Snider’s MySpace page he talks about how much he loves South Park and states that the show is “totally tits.”
I think it’s rad that something like this is becoming popular. In fact, it’s “big fat Oprah tits” that people are finally starting to use this South Park phrase.
I love Bret and Jemaine of Flight of the Conchords!
I’m going to be writing a review this weekend, but for now, here’s some pics from the Flight of the Conchords show in Denver.
The guys were totally gorgeous and really friendly! They even signed my CD. I told Bret about how I quit my job today, so he wrote, “Congrats on leaving your job. now you can start a band.”
American Gladiators f-ing rules!
Tonight’s two hour episode of American Gladiators was off the friggin hook!
Wolf was in rare form, which you know I love, and one of the female contestants was so crazy amped that it was like Cheri Oteri in an SNL sketch. The woman was a former Air Force chick from Colorado (of course she’s from my home state!) with some serious anger management issues. Every time they cut to her kids, they looked terrified and were probably thinking, “Mom’s had a few too many Red Bulls.” During one intro interview with Leila Ali, she screamed one of the greatest quotes I’ve ever heard on network tv:
“Some girls like puppy dogs and pink bows, I like speed and violence, baby!”
Anyway, until I can get a clip from tonight’s episode, here’s a behind-the-scenes clip featuring my favorite Gladiator ever, Wolf, talking about how he likes to mind f*ck the contestants.
MTV Movie Awards nominees and predictions
Voting is now open for the MTV Movie Awards.
Nominees:
Best Comedic Performance:
Amy Adams – Enchanted
Johnny Depp – Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Jonah Hill – Superbad
Seth Rogen – Knocked Up
Adam Sandler – I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry
While Jonah Hill deserves this more than anyone else on this list, or possible in any film of the entire year, I think it will go to Seth Rogen because, well, he’s a genius.
Best Female Performance:
Amy Adams – Enchanted
Jessica Biel – I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry
Katherine Heigl – Knocked Up
Keira Knightly – Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Ellen Page – Juno
It’s gotta go to Ellen Page. Juno was one of the best films of the year and her performance was simply stellar.
Best Fight:
Alien vs. Predator – Alien vs. Predator: Requiem
Hayden Christiensen vs. Jamie Bell – Jumper
Matt Damon vs. Joey Ansah – The Bourne Ultimatum
Sean Faris vs. Cam Gigandet – Never Back Down
Tobey Maguire vs. James Franco – Spiderman 3
Chris Tucker & Jackie Chan vs. Sun Ming Ming – Rush Hour 3
I think I have to give this one to Tobey Maguire and James Franco. Spiderman 3 kinda sucked, but the fight sequence was pretty cool.
Best Kiss:
Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey – Enchanted
Briana Evigan and Robert Hoffman – Step Up 2 the Streets
Shia LaBeouf and Sarah Roemer – Disturbia
Ellen Page and Michael Cera – Juno
Daniel Radcliffe and Katie Leung – Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
If this doesn’t go to Ellen Page and Michael Cera, something is wrong with the universe. That was one of the best screen kisses ever, if not one of the best scenes ever. Brilliant all around!
Best Male Performance:
Michael Cera – Juno
Matt Damon – The Bourne Ultimatum
Shia LaBeouf – Transformers
Will Smith – I Am Legend
Denzel Washington – American Gangster
Michael Cera is clearly the best here (can you tell I’m a huge Juno fan?) but I kinda think this one’s going to Shia LeBeouf.
Best Villain:
Javier Bardem – No Country for Old Men
Johnny Depp – Sweeney Todd
Topher Grace – Spider-Man 3
Angelina Jolie – Beowulf
Denzel Washington – American Gangster
I don’t know how many MTV-aged kids saw it, but Javier Bardem was so fantatic in No Country that he should probably win almost anything he’s nominated for.
Breakthrough Performance:
Nikki Blonsky – Hairspray
Chris Brown – This Christmas
Michael Cera -Superbad
Zac Efron -Hairspray
Megan Fox -Transformers
Jonah Hill -Superbad
Christopher Mintz-Plasse – Superbad
Seth Rogen – Knocked Up
If we’re talking breakthrough, the real winner should be Christoper Mintz-Plasse because this was his first foray into acting and who doesn’t love McLovin?
Best Summer Movie So Far:
The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Iron Man
Sex And The City: The Movie
Speed Racer
If we look at the box office, it should be Iron Man, but Indiana Jones could also take it home.
Best Movie:
I Am Legend
Juno
National Treasure: Book of Secrets
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Superbad
Transformers
Clearly I want Juno or Superbad to win this award. Both are witty, smart and well-written… and I have kind of a thing for Michael Cera. Despite all that, I think this one’s gonna belong to Transformers. This is MTV after all.
