LA RIP VHS BBQ
When those Chicago freaks had the nerve to say that their hot dog of a town was the unofficial home of EIT! I say bullshit. So what if it's where we all started the gang? So what if literally every other member is living there right now? Don't they know that LA is home to Ghoul 'Fro-Yo' Skool? Los Angeles is also the birthplace of VHS, and the grill. You love both of those things you say? Well then you're in fucking luck. This Monday at the world's most dangerous movie house THE CINEFAMILY (aka The Silent Movie Theatre) will be presenting THE 5 MINUTES GAME! I'll let them explain what that is...
Summer's around the corner, and you know how the Cinefamily loves to usher in the new season: by busting out the patio grill, and playing The Five Minutes Game. What's all this about a game, you ask? We're firm believers in the concept of "every movie is interesting for at least its first five minutes": those fascinating moments when you're still entering the new world a film presents you, and trying to figure out what the hell's going on in it. What we're gonna do is choose fifteen movies you've likely never seen before (with most, if not all of them unavailable on DVD), line 'em up, and show you only the first five minutes of each (not counting their opening credits.) After that, you, the audience, gets to vote on which film out of the fifteen we all then watch in its entirety. So, bring something to cook on our grill, and let's get started!

Much like the master of mystery himself, this product should get punched in the stomach and die from Peritonitis.

We've been working night and day on 2E2T2:TD and we're tired. Oh so tired.
Recently we decided to give our VCRs a rest (they are cantankerous old gals) by watching some good old fashioned teevee, and we discovered something very exciting. Apparently you can get other people to do your work for you by saying you're looking for America's next top somethingorother! We are never ones to be upstaged, even by RuPaul, and so we here at EIT are getting in on the action!
We hereby officially proclaim the week of May 31- June 4 to be EIT'S FIRST ANNUAL THE INTERNET'S NEXT TOP VIDEO BLOGGER CONTEST! We're looking for your best original remixes of VHS material!
The 4 tenets of EIT apply, first and foremost NO REPOSTING OF YOUTUBE CLIPS. If you submit a clip you "found" on youtube you will be disqualified!
So if you think you're tuff enuff for EIT and want a taste of that sweet, sweet Internet fame, get ready to prove it by emailing whatsupEIT@gmail.com for details. The 5 winners will get their videos featured on EIT, as well as free EIT schwag! If you really impress us, we might even make you an ongoing guest blogger! So get to work Internet!
DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES MIDNIGHT CST SUNDAY, MAY 30!
PS- If that's not enough to get you to enter, for every day we don't receive an entry we will be reposting this. You have been warned.

A LIL' SOMETHING FOR GRANDMA ON HUMP DAY
I tried to make a 2.5-minute version of the movie Rappin' but I failed miserably.
So here's something adorably inappropriate for you.
I still believe the 2.5 minute version can be done... I just can't cut out all that sweet, sweet rappin'.

THIS MAN NEEDS YOUR JURASSIC PARKS!
Unless you've been in rehab for the past 4 months, you probably already know we have made it our mission to track down every VHS copy of Jerry Maguire in existence.
Recently, we were contacted by someone with a similar obsession and we were so moved by his story that would like to share it with you.
Kurt has collected 229 copies of Jurassic Park, including:
- 3 copies which are in the original shrink wrap with Jello Jigglers mail-in rebates
- 6 widescreen / letterbox editions
- 1 double-tape special edition
- 1 special Canadian import
- 1 Japanese version bought in Japan
Sadly, there will never be enough copies of Jurassic Park on VHS to slake this man's thirst. If you have a copy of Jurassic Park to donate, please contact Kurt at kurtasbestos.com. Together, we can make a difference.
