Video: Bad news, ‘Green Lantern’ fans, the jokes are already coming

By Jonathan Tully   |  Action, Funny  |  June 17, 2011

Well, it looks like Green Lantern might just be the worst-reviewed comic-book movie this summer. Rotten Tomatoes has given it a 21 percent fresh rating, relegating it with the likes of Priest and Judy Moody and the NOT Bummer Summer.

And now, mere hours after its official release, it’s already started to be a punchline. The Onion pulled no punches, making fun of its aggressive marketing:

Every good ‘Star Wars’ clip deserves a sequel

By Jonathan Tully   |  Funny  |  May 23, 2011

While seeing Darth Vader playing the trombone and dancing to salsa music wasn’t quite the sign of the apocalypse we’d thought, it did lead us on a search for other musically inclined Star Wars characters.

We didn’t have to go far. Ladies and gentlemen, Chewbacca dancing to “Welcome to the Jungle”, also starring an Ewok Slash:

Darth Vader trombone: Sign of the Apocalypse?

By Post Staff   |  Cringe, Funny, Hey, Watch It, Practical joke, Weird  |  May 20, 2011

Oh look, it’s Darth Vader playing the trombone and dancing to Latin rhythms while bored-seeming senior citizens look on.

They say the world is ending tomorrow, and so far, this is the best sign of the coming Apocalypse that we’ve seen yet.

Have you come across a better sign of the Apocalypse than this? Post a link to it in the comments below!

When Zach Galifianakis hosts ‘SNL’, even the promos are funny

By Jonathan Tully   |  Funny, Saturday Night Live  |  March 11, 2011

OK, look, no question the Betty White-hosted episode of Saturday Night Live was funny.

But for me, the best episode of the season last year was when Zach Galifianakis was host. He definitely had the season’s best monologue (HERE COMES THE CHOO-CHOO!), and I still quote some of the skits from the show.

So I was pretty happy to hear that Galifianakis was returning to host this week. As you can see, if you’re into Zach’s humor, even these promos are funny:

By Jonathan Tully   |  Funny, Oscars  |  February 25, 2011

Coinciding with his hosting gig on the Academy Awards, James Franco is making a quick cameo on General Hospital, where last year he played a psycho killer in a quick but memorable arc.

Here, Franco returns and makes sly comments about both the Oscars and 127 Hours:

Video: Oscar picks — by Oscar the Grouch

By pbpulse.com Staff   |  Funny, Oscars  |  February 24, 2011

As Oscar, the garbage-can-dwelling curmudgeon of Sesame Street, puts it, “Hollywood puts out some of the greatest trash I’ve ever seen.” And he loves trash:

Video: Jim Cantore goes nuts over ‘thundersnow’

By Jonathan Tully   |  Funny  |  February 02, 2011

I’m a huge Jim Cantore fan — when the Weather Channel’s on-the-scene weather reporter isn’t in Palm Beach County during hurricane season. He’s got such great enthusiasm, and yet also that ‘I’ve seen everything’ style about him.

But apparently, he hasn’t really dealt with “thundersnow”, as you can see during the Weather Channel’s coverage of this week’s mammoth winter storm:
