Tower Heist

[Jeremy Blackman]

Brett Ratner is endorsing Megaupload.

His face, mouth agape, inexplicably appears betwixt a number of very famous recording artists and athletes on Megaupload's main page:

Unfortunately when you click on the Ratner head, it doesn't seem to be working. If it's working for anyone, please tell me what he says about Megaupload!

Also, there is a connected . It's basically an awesome viral video achingly awkward collection of transparently insincere endorsements, intercut with silly flash advertising, backed by some sort of lifeless tune that a third-grader made in GarageBand. While it contains no Ratner, it does feature the demonic screech of Macy Gray. This one of the worst things I have ever experienced. It is worth seeing, if only that your soul gains progress through the spiritual tribulation.

I've never used MegaUpload for legal consumption. It's amazing how so many artists are coerced so easily by a fat check from a company that offers them nothing else. This is all just really silly advertisement.

[Jeremy Blackman]

Yeah... and what baffles me is how this company could come up with sums of money that would mean anything to these people. It's just very strange.

Should we suspect blackmail?

The most hilariously insincere one is the Kim Kardashian (in the video).

[O.]

Yeah I just saw that one... what does her opinion even matter when it comes to file hosting, let alone music.

... let alone anything really.

The Kanye one is actually kind of depressing.

Also, one final thing... why don't any white artists 'support' MegaUpload?

The best one is Snoop Dogg. "It's keeping the kids off the street!"

Also it looks like he was ambushed backstage.
