I am a mild fan of South Park as sometimes its the spot and other times its a little too ridiculous. I watched tonights episode and was entertained that the show decided to mock various youtube Phenomenas. The premise was pretty ridiculous as the entire country of Canada went on strike demanding more “internet money” […]

I typically don’t highlight Entertainment current events, but felt compelled to do so as a couple of items that seem to be floating under the radar. Below are some interesting items. – Steve-O from Jackass fame is reportedly being held at a mental health facility as he reportedly sent out suicide emails before Johnny Knockville […]

I tend to keep an eye out for interesting movies in production or slated to be coming out soon. A lot of movies I tend to enjoy are adaptions and interpretations of real life events. 2 recent ones that come to mind are Into the Wild (great sound track) and American Gangster. With that in […]

The Wire may not be my favorite show on television, but it was by far the best and I will miss it dearly. Shows like The Office, Entourage, and the Sopranos may have entertained me more or warranted repeat viewings with my friends, but in my opinion they were nowhere near the brilliance of The […]

Found this tonight. The perfect game for mischievous worker bees who dream of glory days of years past. [vodpod id=ExternalVideo.484896&w=425&h=350&fv=] from www.funny-games.biz posted with vodpod

I constantly find myself in disbelief over what seems to capture the American public’s attention. Less and less real news is being reported with more paparazzi/tabloid garbage gaining traction with mainstream media outlets. With this in mind, I found myself giddy upon hearing from a friend that Ashton Kutcher would now be collaborating with pop […]

You probably have never heard of the web video rising star “I am f_ucking Ben Affleck” and are probably unfamiliar with the works of Jonathon Coulton. However via the power of new media outlets such as youtube, instant messenger, blogs, and message boards (and of course procrastination) both are poised to infiltrate the American sub […]

Two movies that I have caught my attention are the upcoming Indiana Jones and the “Stoner Action movie” Pineapple Express. I have high expectations for Indiana Jones as I have defended its potential and praised its proud history to my roommate who ignorantly claims that the new Rambo will be better (He hasnt seen it, […]

This weekend has been dedicated to recharging the battery after a tough month and a half of planning, preparation, and troubleshooting for my company’s annual convention. Not feeling the need to chase girls at the bar, I was able to take in two movies that I have wanted to see for quite awhile. Pursuit Of […]

I have an interesting group of friends to say the least. Included is my best friend, Ross, who I have bet a 4 figure amount of money that he will not be able to dunk by the time he is 30. Not one to be outdone, my roommate is boldly and confidently predicting the new […]

I will be sad, very sad if this ever gets taken off off you tube… Genius. I usually chuckle at funny things, but this made my eyes water. http://youtube.com/watch?v=vYu68SHWh64

Last night was my first time out on the famed Bourbon Street. Bourbon Street lived up to its billing and then some. Imagine 30,000 -50,000 crazed college football fans looking to blow off some steam the night before a much anticipated game. Bourbon Street spans about 12 blocks, has no open container laws, is closed […]

I have a couple of items for benkoo.com in the works before the year closes but wanted to distinguish Judd Apatow as my person of the year. Apatow declined to accept in person citing a busy schedule but released a statement that “this was the proudest moment of my entire career”. For many of you, […]

Today I took glance at my options in case I wanted to take in a movie this extended Holiday weekend. Among my options were two films that starred a pair I have grown to appreciate over the years. Phillip Seymour Hoffman in “Charlie Wilson’s War” and John C Reilly in “Walk Hard” are two men […]

Sacha Baron Cohen announced the retiring of his two most popular characters, the uneducated materialistic and sexually ambitious white rapper Ali G and Borat, the anti semitic sexist Kazakhstany and socially awkward Borat. Ali G and Borat were the bulk of Cohen’s critically acclaimed but controversial characters in Cohen’s television spots that aired in England […]
