Ebony Magazine’s prediction of what Michael Jackson would look like in 2000.

Here’s what Ebony Magazine predicted the late Michael Jackson would look like in the year 2000. Maybe just a bit off on their prediction.

What MJ actually looked like in 2000

80’s Medley on Violin

Sounds better than I had anticipated.

These dancing squirrels aren’t half-bad….

Michael Jackson would be proud of this choreography, God rest his soul.  Wait..what?  We’re getting word that Michael’s still alive.  Not confirmed yet, but we’ll get back with you.

New zombie walk world record set in Grand Rapids, MI last night.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — A world record number of zombies came to Rosa Parks Circle in Grand Rapids Thursday night.

An estimated 2,000 people dressed up in their best ghoulish costume and broke the mark for largest zombie walk.

They also donated 8,000 cans of food for the Second Harvest Gleaners Food Bank of West Michigan – 5,000 by participants and 3,000 by Meijer stores.

Organizer Rob Bliss spread the word with the help of Facebook.com.

The old record – 1,028 zombies – was set last year at the Monroeville Mall in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

This is pretty sweet.  From my understanding, the cops never blocked off the streets, so ghouls were marauding through regular traffic.

Indian “Thriller” with subtitles

Well, the subtitles are actually based on what the lyrics sound like. Either way, this is some good stuff. Michael Jackson is spinning in his grave. RIP, MJ. More funny Indian music videos at Buffalax’s Youtube Channel.

**Update** Apparently Michael Jackson is still alive.

The Waldo Ultimatum

Great parody from a talented sketch group, The Imponderables. This sketch was nominated for Best Web Clip in the 2008 Canadian Comedy Awards.  A few NSFW words.

What Michael Jackson would look like without his own on call plastic surgeon.

The Daily Mail just ran the photo below of what Michael Jackson would look like at 50, according to “experts.” Contrast that with the recent photo of The King of Pop below. Quite a difference. The article also talks about how Jackson is in serious debt but reportedly turned down a 30 concert deal in London where he would be paid $1 million per show. Wow. For a tenth of that money I’ll do the whole MJ catalog and dance my arse off. Badly.

Stephen King’s “The Talisman”

This is a demo film by director Mathieu Ratthe in an attempt to secure the rights to make Stephen King’s “The Talisman” into a feature film.  Ratthe explains below:

“The Talisman – “DEMO SCENE” is based on a novel by Stephen King and Peter Straub.

My main objective for creating this piece is to demonstrate my directing ability and my vision to the producers who own the rights to the story: STEVEN SPIELBERG & KATHLEEN KENNEDY.

Among the key players who lent their support to this project are Cameron Bright (X-Men: The Last Stand, Birth) who starred in the leading role, the Montreal-based company Buzz Image (300; The Aviator) who created the visual effects. The scene was shot in two days.

Pacino and Deniro: trailer for “Righteous Kill”

In theaters September 12.

Michael Jackson: then and now

Now: being pushed around in a wheelchair while wearing a surgical mask and a hat that most Marines probably wish they could snatch off of his head.

Then: a dancing freaking machine.
