Samuel L. Jackson and Anne Hathaway Compete in Holiday 'Sad-Off'

Emerald Catron — Tue, 18 Dec 2012 20:35:59 +0000

This could be a new holiday tradition, and that would be fine with us. It’s a “sad-off” between Anne Hathaway and Samuel L. Jackson, each desperate to prove that theirs is the movie totally inappropriate for the holiday season (‘Les Miserables‘ and ‘Django Unchained,’ respectively). It’s slave revenge vs. prostitute with tuberculosis, and we predict [...]

Emerald Catron — Thu, 13 Dec 2012 18:43:59 +0000

We really wouldn’t expect moody singer/songwriter Cat Power (aka Chan Marshall) to have a sense of humor about her onstage meltdowns. You know, because she’s always having meltdowns. But here she is in this Funny or Die video, freaking out on a bunch of second graders for trying to sing along to ‘Old McDonald.’ We [...]

'Parks and Recreation' man's man Ron Swanson is turning into a cult figure these days, thanks to actor Nick Offerman's deadpan demeanor. In this video from Funny or Die, Swanson is joined by another deadpan character from another one of NBC's hit comedies, Darryl Philbin (aka Craig Robinson) from 'The Office'. The pair sit in a bar watching a baseball game, and begin slamming each other over a classic Chicago feud: Cubs vs. Sox.

Relive Wacky '80s TV With Funny or Die's 'Spring 1986 Lineup' [VIDEOS]

Jeremy Taylor — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 19:47:55 +0000

Back in the '80s, television didn't have to be "realistic." So if, for example, you wanted to do a sitcom about a human family with a robot daughter all you had to do is have a real actress play the android and then speed up the tape to show how this otherwise normal looking child could move at super speeds.

It is in that absurdist spirit which 'Funny or Die' has come up their hilarious 'Spring 1986 TV Line Up.'

Funny or Die's 'Coffee Snobs' are Always Judging You [VIDEO]

Paul Ciampanelli — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 16:07:31 +0000

People say that giving your business to a local, independent coffee shop is better than surrendering your heard-earned bread to a corporate behemoth like Starbucks. But what they don't warn you about is the too-cool baristas at the indie shops whose customer service style isn't mandated by international company policy.

Sure, their coffee is to-die-for ... if you don't mind your morning joe flavored heavily with belittlement and a pretentious attitude.

Audio of Gerard Depardieu's Airplane Urination Incident Uncovered [VIDEO]

Jeremy Taylor — Fri, 19 Aug 2011 18:19:52 +0000

Earlier this week, French actor Gerald Depardieu caused a stir (and gave Anderson Cooper the giggles) when he sloppily peed into a bottle on a Paris-to-Dublin flight.

Sadly, there's not video or photos of the incident, but the folks at Funny or Die have created a fake black box recording of Depardieu's faux pas.
