Quentin Tarantino Loves Violence In Cinema (Video)

You probably look at a Taratino classic like “Reservoir Dogs” (or his coming flick “Hateful 8”) and think: Wow, this is over-the-top violent! But hey, Tarantino isn’t really about all of that blood and gore for really real.

No…yeah… He is. No apologies or eff’s given about what any hater thinks about it either. ‘Tino is all about VIOLENCE. Watch above and prepare to go ‘whoa!’

(Good point about Japan’s ultra-violent cinema in its most peaceful society; one NOT equating to the other.)

Technology: Faraday Future’s Unveils Its Supercar Concept (Video)

Faraday Future’s FFZero1 concept car is already a star for what it is trying to do! to be sure. Plus it got leaked hours before the big concept’s debut…man, you know something’s big when there is hate out the gate.

Unlike most other car startups, Faraday was founded in the living room (not the garage) of Nick Sampson, the company’s senior vice president. The company is run by an executive team; not some stuffy CEO. And the team is extreme four former Tesla staffers and head of design Richard Kim, who was a founding member of BMW’s electric car unit.

Now… the car. One thousand horsepower ELECTRIC car. Able to do zero to 60 MPH in under three seconds. Will be connected to all kinds of tech, like the most awesome living room on the road (so damn a traffic jam, you can just jam…or chill). And it will be easy as pie to design and manufacture more – line designs that take months (not years), with multiple models available.

Sounds more like iPhones than automobiles. Hope they can do it without ‘doing it’ to our pockets too hard though. We’ll see in a couple of years, when the first Supercars should be ready for market. But for now, just watch and be amazed!

And after the jump… the big reveal of the Faraday Future FFZero1 concept!

President Barack Obama And Jerry Seinfeld: Just A Couple Of Guys ‘Getting Coffee’ (Video)

Screenshot 2016-01-07 05.12.10This “Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee” episode is everything fam. By far, the biggest “get” ever on Jerry Seinfeld’s show: President Barack Obama. Still… the baby blue 1963 Corvette Stingray Split Window Coupe he showed up in… classic sickness! Too bad they aren’t actually ‘going’ anywhere to get coffee.

Seinfeld: Uh… we’re just gonna run out for a quick coffee. We’ll be right back.
White House Security Guard: I’m sorry, sir. That’s not possible.
Seinfeld: I do this little show “Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee.”
White House Security Guard: You’re a comedian with the President going nowhere. Back it up.
Seinfeld: Yes sir.

Watch. And peep, the President’s got jokes… and some pretty cool tech in his car.

Comedy: Ice Cube & Kevin Hart Help Conan’s Intern Get Ready For Her Driver License Test (Video)

HILARIOUS! Sure Ice Cube and Kevin Hart have their upcoming “Ride Along 2” movie to promote (in theaters January 15, 2016), but why not “ride along” (ha!) with their homie Conan O’Brien? He could use some help schooling Diana Chang on maneuvering in these streets… not being no punk… cutting off and cussing out drivers (offensive driving)… throwing batteries and pennies at ’em… wilding out on them po-po’s… picking up pinatas, scoring weed and scarfing chicken…

You know, some real drivers’ education and sh!t. Hahaaaaaaa!

Anyone Need A Flame-Throwing Drone To Come Cook Your Turkey? This Guy’s Got One (Video)

Holiday turkey… done… WELL done… with a flamethrower… mounted on a flying drone… because WHY THE F##K NOT??!! Baaahahahaaaa! Well, maybe they like an open fire roasted (read: scorched) turkey with crispy (read: burnt) skin. Maybe it’s still kinda tender and juicy (read: raw and bloody) on the inside.

Shiiiid, who are we to judge? Dig in! Enjoy that tryptophan near comatose-level ‘itis’ (read: salmonella) that will have you laid out through the last Bowl game.

Oh… flying the flame bot away from the house. Smart. In the woods (read: forest fire site).. REALLY smart… like Allstate ‘Mayhem’ commercial smart!

Wow. Seeing is still not believing.

Oh… the builder who brought this hot idea to life is the same dude that gave us the homemade gun-firing drone earlier (see that here). Austin Haughwout has done “it” again. Dunno what all “it” entails; but a visit from law enforcement and fire safety personnel might be (read: is most likely) included!

Bill Maher Tells The Real Truth About The So-Called ‘Sharing Economy’ On ‘Real Time’ (Video)

Really hope that you watch the dude Bill Maher from time to time. Biting commentary on the world today, mixed in with a lot of laughs – almost always at some dummy’s expense. In the clip above (case in point), the “dummy” is a bunch of “dummies” …US (as in United States)! Our so-called American Dream has historically featured so much greed that things got ugly. It still does – ever-increasing costs of living that stifle even the most modest attempts of most to make a life for themselves. We used to labor under the illusion of work-hard-so-one-day-you-can-play-hard. Not anymore. What’s worse is that we are no longer ‘in the streets’ trying to scare the 1% into some sense of fairness. Nope, we just got really smart about doing without; which in turn supports the rich’s pursuit of happiness… all while giving up our pursuit of anything like it. We now have a ‘sharing economy’ – in which we share rides (Uber) and vacay living space (Airbnb) – built on a vast number of us choosing to fake it since we’ve given up on ever making it to the ‘good life.’ See above, where Bill takes aim at the ‘darling’ Olsen twins; who’ve gone from playing with dolls to playing their workforce. A billion-plus dollar empire; and you can’t pay your interns even a little something?

The one thing we’re not sharing are the profits. Somehow they forgot to create an app for that.
Bill Maher

Damn.
