That’s right fellow civilians, superheroism is no longer reserved for super-babies in rockets from other planets. The days of microwaving spiders, trying to recreate Spidey’s powers are over! Behold, now you too can slip out during your lunch break and save the world, and all it will cost you is a ticket to the Big Apple.
Moscow’s mighty 10-lane Ring Road is famous for rather large volumes of traffic, and this morning was no different, except that this morning, fake money was responsible for the chaos. Russian radio station Echo Moskvy reported that scores of drivers hurriedly left their vehicles during peak hour traffic to gather what looked like 1000-ruble notes.
Love or hate them – horror movies have become ingrained in popular culture to the point that spine-tingling one-liners like “Hi, I’m Chucky, wanna play?”, “Heeeeeeeeere’s Johnny!”, “I see dead people.”, “It’s alive! It’s alive!” and “They’re heee-re.” have become jokes. How else do you explain another Scream sequel?

If you’re in the city, you should get out onto the street, slap your shades on, and enjoy the timeless combination of fresh air and quality humour. And now from the side.

Not many true guitar gods have walked this earth. In the hands of these rare beings, the guitar is more than a six stringed musical instrument; it is a source of immense power, a weapon of mass destruction, a light saber, the most magical of wands, capable of removing a groupy’s panties with a single […]
Loyiso will be dropping by the 2oceansVibe Radio studios for a chat with Rich Hardiman and Lindsay Williams, hosts of The Morning Meeting about his new show, “Life and Times”. You can tune in live online by going HERE. Or you can listen on your phone by going to www.2ov.fm (on your phone). Loyiso stole the […]
Vocal genius, Matt Mulholland, has produced yet more hilarity by over-dubbing the famous lobby shoot-out scene in The Matrix, using only his voice. The video is complete with score and loads of “pew pews” for the gun sounds. It’s hilarious and reminds me that there was once a time where not every shoot-out scene in a movie looked like this one.
If you take a little stroll down to your local market, you can pick up anything from a pair of Mikes (fake Nikes) to a pair of Maddibas (fake Adidas) to the best real fake Rolex you’ve ever seen. It’s now only a matter of time before you can pick up a new secretary, wife or girlfriend as well.
Michael Bay, womaniser, loon and director of brilliant movies, such as Pearl Harbor and the Transformers trilogy, has been caught cheating… again, this around time by recycling footage from The Island and using it for Transformers 3.
The twins officially launched their second studio album today, Running To Midnight, and with that, a rather interesting music video for one of the new singles – Stars Above You. The video is pretty well executed and features a rather intense looking Siberian Husky.
With team names like Hell’s Angelfish and Gold Fusion, it was always going to be hard to take this seriously. So, as we strike the hour that is the Cape Town Friday Rule, we bring you human torpedo racing. Think of the scene in Zoolander when Derek and Hansel and the boys spray petrol everywhere. Brace yourselves.
I have always loved Monty Python. I grew up on Monty Python. I wouldn’t be who I am today without the Pythons. And now they’re all back together again, sort of, to make a film based on the memoirs of the late, great Graham Chapman.
The Chinese often find ingenious ways of rectifying problems, but they’ve gone too far this time. A badly doctored image of government officials inspecting a new road in Huili, a modest county in a rural corner of south-west China, has produced some exquisite viral images indicating the public’s displeasure with being lied to.
8 bit Invader (maping) from Darkfejzr on Vimeo.
A projection mapping by the Czech designer Pavel Novák turns the façade of a university building into a mash-up of 80’s video games – running the gamut from Pac-Man to Space Invaders. It’s called 8-bit Invader. The initial screening was for the 5th anniversary of Tomas Bata University’s department of visual arts in Zlín, Czech Republic.
Flight of the Conchords were right on the money when they sang Robots. The Robot, The Robo Boogie, global robo-depression, the robotic uprising of the ’90s – it’s actually scary how many parallels there are with Transformers: Dark of the Moon…
You guys remember that VW commercial that ran during the Superbowl with a tiny Darth Vader? Well, Greenpeace does. And they’ve made a spoof follow-up in an effort to call attention to the automaker’s environmental record. Liberal media sentiments aside, it’s cute – click through for a tiny Vader and a Message About The Environment.
Princess Diana has risen from the dead, on the front cover of Newsweek in a picture that shows her walking in town with her new daughter-in-law, Kate. Creepy much?
Groupon, in conjunction with Union Sports Mag, is giving four lucky Groupies the chance to win a seafood dinner with Springbok centre, Jaque Fourie, at one of Cape Town’s best kept secrets – Pigalle restaurant. Pigalle is perfect for when you want to show off the vibe of Cape Town, masterfully capturing the sense of […]
I come from a rich musical background and was raised – in more ways than one – on the likes of Billy Joel. “Billy Joel Kids” have a very special connection with each other, and tend to avoid songs like Pianoman and Uptown Girl. Not to be snobs about it – but more because those two tunes […]
As the new royal patron of Wimbledon, the Duchess of Cambridge is taking her duties increasingly seriously as this year’s tournament unfolds. Not the least of her responsibilities, it seems, is joining in with the odd Mexican wave in the stands.
Well, I’m told Cars 2 was a little awful, breaking Pixar’s long-running streak of critical acclaim – but I’m willing to write that off as a fluke, because the Brave trailer looks pretty great. Please. Click through. Watch Pixar’s first female protagonist fight a bear at Stone Henge.
2oceansVibe Radio’s Drive Time Robbery co-host and generally self-effacing, funny and nice human being, Martin Evans, will be performing a one man comedy show at the Grahamstown Festival this year. The show chronicles the worst year of Martin’s life. SPOILER ALERT! It actually turns out to be the best year of his life. But the […]
Am I alone in thinking that our world record attempts are getting a little obscure? Look, it’s great that you guys (from Mexico City) are all dressed up together and want recognition for that, I’m just not sure that dressing up as beloved 90’s cartoon characters is the way to go. Pics after the jump.
The elimination of runners for injured players, the use of two new balls from each end in one-dayers, and new regulation around when the batting and bowling Powerplays can be taken, are among the key recommendations the ICC Chief Executives’ Committee has made after its meeting in Hong Kong.
There are some things in life you just don’t do. And hurling your shoes at Henry Rollins ranks up there with the gravest of mistakes. But that is just what one punk did whilst Rollins was trying to conduct an interview with one of his favourite bands. Mr. Rollins responded like the true gentlemen thug he is, as you’ll see from this priceless video.
The infamous red leather jacket worn by the deceased king of pop, Michael Jackson, in his renowned Thriller video, has sold this weekend at an auction in California, for $1.8 million. That is a cool R12.4 million at today’s exchange rate. The jacket also boasts Jackson’s signature on the one sleeve.
Graeme Smith began his exclusive interview with 2oceansVibe Radio on Friday afternoon with this question. Over the course of the next 50 minutes, Smith spoke candidly about his total loss of confidence and self-esteem that led to his decision to stay away from South Africa following the Protea’s disappointing quarter-final exit from the 2011 Cricket […]
Former Springbok captain and scrumhalf, Joost van der Westhuizen, has suffered a setback after the initial treatment prescribed by his doctor, to combat the debilitating nerve disease he was diagnosed with, failed to improve his condition.
South Africa’s first ever reality television porn show appears to have gone limp halfway through the auditions because broadcasters are reluctant to ‘excite’ the public. Although South Africans are generally fans of reality television, it’s hardly surprising that the conservative forces have decided to pass on a deal to air the show.
The King of Pop was selfishly snatched from us two years ago today. I’m sure anyone who saw me spilling blood on the dance floor at Taboo in my late teens, will attest to the fact that Mike was a major influence on the relationship I had with the dance floor. I would often woo […]
