Someone Found Footage of Carla Gugino On "Saved By The Bell" And Now I've Found An Excuse To Post A Pretty Photo Of Carla Gugino

My dreamy readers, I may have rewatched Inception last night which MAY have prompted me to inceptivize today’s P. Love. I’m saying there are layers, people. So go to the bathroom before you start, watch out for snowmobiles and, this is very important, as soon as the van hits the river, be ready to-BRRRRRRRAAAAAMRMMRMRMMMMM!!!

After seeing this super freaky phone charger. (I mean it, you guys, this is Cronenberg-level freaky), I’m tempted to join this woman in her anti-cell phone crusade. (The Awl)

My rampant anglophilia is well-documented, and it’s not as if the British are doing anything to put a damper on my affection, but I think poor Hugh Laurie has contracted ameriphilia? Yankee Fever? His new album (you’ve never heard him sing?) is comprised of bluesy, New Orleans style tracks. I won’t lie to you, babies, I’m excited. (Evil Beet)

I’m such an anglophiliac, in fact, that it took me less than two minutes to find the glaring omission in this chart of “Films Featuring At Least Four Harry Potter Cast Members.” The composition is neat, don’t get me wrong, but whither the Tennant?!? WHITHER?! (Rag Bag)

I also take exception with this list of “10 Movie Heroes Who Were Probably Virgins.” If you think Mary McFly was a virgin, you severely underestimate both the allure of a puffy orange vest and the sexual prowess of Miss Elisabeth Shue. Have you seen Cocktail? Side boob! (Hobo Trashcan)

Speaking of cocktails, here are the Ten Drunkest Cities In America. San Francisco, you’re number nine on the list but number one in my heart. (Main Street)

Sometimes I worry, my little Ewoks, that I talk about Star Wars too much, but the poster I’ve attached below made these PSAs impossible to ignore. Also, nostalgia. Also, Star Wars is great. (College Humor)

Speaking of nostalgia, I loved some truly terrible things when I was younger. Like Troop Beverly Hills and “Saved By The Bell.” Hey! Pretty Carla Gugino was in both! (MovieLine)

I also loved some great things when I was little, like the Thin Man movies…which they are bloody remaking with Johnny Depp. So help me gourd, if you Captain Jackass Slurrow your way through this film, Depp, we’re through. THROUGH. (FSR)

I rather thought my favorite Asian thing would always be my wok. (Have you read this book? No? Do it!) That was foolish of me, my wok pales in comparison to this incredibly heroic Japanese man. The only way he could have been more heroic is if he had strapped a chainsaw to his arm. You can’t make this sh*t up. (Badass Of The Week)

Well that last layered link was a little excessive, no? I’m glad I didn’t try to shoehorn that story about the subway cars being dropped into the ocean. That would have been over the top. Let’s bask, instead, in the badassery of not only Hideaki Akaiwa, but also Mr. Steven Seagal. The lads over at Film Drunk have compiled, for your cringing pleasure, every bone Seagal has ever broken.

And, to counteract the machismo of that clip, I bring you this decidedly un-macho Lady Gaga video. It’s actually a pretty swanky look at the rise of Gaga through the lens of Google.

Joanna Robinson wonders if that was a bit much. . .all those layers…and what was with that snow fortress?!? When she wakes, she’ll talk to you here: godtopuswept@gmail.com or here: @quityourJRob or he—

Wait, what? I got distracted by the Carla. Oh, Carla...

Sorry. Where were we? Is she topless in that header pic? Oh, forget it. I'm done for the rest of the day. Please excuse me.

...as opposed to an ugly picture? I defy you to find anything BUT a pretty picture.

HOLY FARKIN' SHITBALLS!!! That Japanese man gives my beloved Jack Bauer a run for his money.

As for the "Thin Man," I'm torn. I love the originals, and I love Johnny Depp. But, replace my beloved William Powell/Myrna Loy/Asta combo? I SWEAR TO GODTOPUS IS THEY MAKE ASTA A TALKING/COMPUTERIZED/CGI DOG I WILL STEAL THE MURDERTANK AND KILL 'EM ALL!!!

My God. Hideaki Akaiwa's made my testicles swell three sizes. Ladies, don't click that link unless you want to become instantly pregnant.

Remaking The Thin Man is a dumbass idea.

Posted by: Tracer Bullet at March 23, 2011 1:20 PM

Wow, Badass indeed. Someone needs to give him a medal. Or you know, a film franchise.

That cell phone lady sounds like a nutbag, and I'll tell you why. Same thing I told my dad a couple years ago when he got his first cell phone after resisting for many of the same reasons she cited. A cell phone is a tool. You use it, it does not use you. If you only want it for emergencies and don't want to be available, turn the fucker off until you need it. She was talking about being FREE!!111!. I think that if you have to completely cut something out of your life in order to feel liberated from it...well, that kinda sounds like some very conservative young adults I know that installed filters on their web browsers to avoid temptation. I know there're a few people here that don't have cell phones. I'm not yelling at you. I just take a little umber at her subtle denigration of people that do have phones by implying the phones control us in some way.

(Yes, I've learnt learned HTML!)

I stand in solidarity with Tracer Bullet's assessement of The Thin Man remake, although I don't care! It's just that I'm used to it, that's all.

I also stand in solidarity with the corpse of my secret husband William Powell and am at the ready to roll him over in his grave.

I have clicked the link and my baby is due around Christmas time.

OK, that Star Wars poster is completely fucked up and completely awesome.

And Japanese super-hero guy is super heroic. Yay for selfless people, a rare commodity in the world today.

Posted by: MM at March 23, 2011 1:56 PM

Saved by the Bell was and is awesome. Mario Lopez is appearing at a Chick-Fil-A in my city this afternoon, and I'm not going to lie-- I wish I could leave work early.

Prince is also in town for a show tonight... Prince and Mario Lopez in the same city on the same day? We've made it.

There, I fixed it for you, JoRo. Your previous headline was accurate, but redundant.


Or... what PissBoy said. (Whose name, I can only imagine, causes his mother to beam endlessly with pride.)

Posted by: RobP at March 23, 2011 2:06 PM

Wait just a minute. The Thin Man being remade with Johnny Depp??? I can't believe it. I don't want to believe it. Say it ain't so!

Look Johnny, you're near the top of my list of favorite actors, a list that numbers nearly TWENTY-ONE people long. But if you think you've got the charisma and wit to match that of Mr. William Powell, you'd just better go JUMP in a lake.

Don't even get me started on who could possibly fill Myrna Loy's shoes. I can't think of a single actress who might be appropriate. They'd better hit the STREET and look for someone new.

Posted by: mswas at March 23, 2011 2:07 PM

WOOT! I can see the comments again! That was a looooooooong week.

Whither David Tennant indeed, JoRo! And that chart only furthers my excitement for Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy. I admit, when I watched The King's Speech I may have gasped, "Dumbledore!" and , "Wormtail!" in the theater...

Oh Hugh Laurie... crushing on you would be so less weird if my mother didn't stare dreamily at that calendar of you all the time...

You never need an excuse to post a pretty picture of Carla Gugino.

*begins slow clap for Japanese badass*

Akaiwa (typed with reverence): FUCK YEAH!

Posted by: lubeg at March 23, 2011 2:32 PM

implying the phones control us in some way.

And you can stop whenever you want to.

Posted by: Jay at March 23, 2011 2:54 PM

Kind of like Facebook.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at March 23, 2011 3:01 PM

It does, in fact, get better. The Akaiwa story has a bunch of half-truths in it...

He was indeed wearing a wetsuit (cuz he's a gnarly surfer dude), but WITHOUT any SCUBA gear.

I repeat: WITHOUT any SCUBA gear.

He swam against a tsunami in his Body Glove.

Drinking game: Watch a Thin Man movie, (1st or 2nd preferably), and every time Nick & Nora have a martini, you have one.

Last one standing wins.

I realize it's cautionary, but that graphic depiction of Luke and Leia is not accurate.

Posted by: DarthCorleone at March 23, 2011 3:45 PM

I admit I looked and I admit that I know what DarthCorleone is talking about.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at March 23, 2011 3:53 PM

Though martinis were smaller back then, Ralph.

That Star Wars poster reminds me of one of my favorite youtube videos...one that never fails to make me laugh....

Comment part deux:

That umbilical charger is indeed freaky and disgusting.

And I had no idea that British teacher on Saved by the Bell was Hayley Mills!

Posted by: Sara Tonin at March 23, 2011 5:08 PM

Wow! Hideaki Akaiwa is hero and half! He doesn't even own a cape.

Posted by: John W at March 23, 2011 9:37 PM

And thanks for the pretty photo of Carla Gugino. I don't get most of the rest, but hey, thanks for that alone!
