They're Gathering Again

It's time for the most anticipated infomercial of the year. The annual Gathering of the Juggalos video. This year's video comes to us from the FUTURE. A future where I assume cool things like the ICP and Faygo have been outlawed so it's up to one intrepid group of ninjas to travel back in time to the 2015 Gathering of the Juggalos and I don't know... save the future Faygo? This thing is 20 minutes long I didn't have time to watch it all this morning.

I think I say this every year, but man I really want to go to this thing. Think of how awesome the people (?) watching must be. Sure there's a 50/50 chance I never make it back but Anybody Killa and Nova Rockafeller are going to be there. I'm pretty sure it's worth taking the chance.

Posters for Sin City 2. I almost forgot this was coming out this year. I've already seen Captain America 2 and X-Men: Days of Future Continuity Errors and I have strong plans to see Guardians of the Galaxy. Will this be the first summer since having kids that I see 4 movies? Dare I dream?

Also Rosario Dawson, not unattractive.

Has Marvel Found its Ms. Marvel? What the hell is going on here Marvel. Eden Sher from the Middle, tweeted a few things about visiting Marvel studios and leaving with a stackload of Ms Marvel comics that has set the internet abuzz. Eden Sher is fine on the middle, she's probably a great actress but Ms Marvel is either a 15 year old Muslim Girl or a 30 year old super badass ex-navy fighter pilot and head of NASA security that received super powers from the alien race known as the Kree. I don't mean to get all nerdy on you but she hardly seems right for either character. Maybe they're working on an Avengers Babies movie?

Whoop Dreams Is Now Available Online For Free. If you're going to watch one 40 minute documentary on the Gathering of the Juggalos on Hulu today make it this one. Seriously, this is really really good. Juggalos really fascinate me, the guy near the beginning that talks about how the family has saved his life was super sincere and compelling yet 10 minutes later it's time for hot oil wrestling! I don't know man, one day I'd love to go to The Gathering but I'm pretty sure if I went I'd either end up bored for 3 days or I'd end up having the time of my life and end up on heroin. I'm pretty sure there's not middle ground.

A visit to Galloping Ghost, the largest video game arcade in the USA. Next bachelor party I go to had better be in Chicago so we can hit up Galloping Ghost. Wait a minute, I forgot the burglars stole my jar of quarters. DAMN IT YOU DIRTY THIEVES I WAS GOING TO PLAY DIG DUG!

These Futuristic Buildings Reveal the Soviets' Vision for Tomorrow. I always imagined Soviet architecture falling into two different categories. Drab and utilitarian and overly ornate and baroque. A lot of these old "buildings from the future" are pretty cool looking. If half of them weren't abandoned I think they'd fit pretty well into most modern cities.

2014 Gathering of the Juggalos Infomercial

So if you have 23 minutes to spare I heartily recommend you watch the infomercial for the 2014 Gathering of the Juggalos. It's got all your favorites, like Insane Clown Posse, Kottonmouth Kings, Blaze ya Dead Homie, Boondoz, the axe Murder Boys and WWE superstar Mick Foley. Plus a bunch of other weird freak show acts and rap groups you can't believe need money this bad like Cypruss Hill and Shock G.. All in beautiful, rural Ohio.

I'm not lying when I say I really want to go to this some year. I have a couple years before I hit 40, maybe I should start saving for the 2015 Gathering right now. At the very least I could start hording Faygo and clown makeup.
