Ed Begley Jr. in Son of The Invisible Man
Here is Ed Begley Jr. in Son of The Invisible Man, from the sketch comedy movie Amazon Women On The Moon.
I’m posting this because it was referenced in a comment on The Onion AV Club on an article titled “Ed Begley Jr. and Mariel Hemingway tricked into appearing in an anti-green energy video”. Which could easily be a parody headline on The Onion, but sadly is a real headline about something that actually happened.
The story, if you don’t want to read it, is about James O’Keefe, the self-proclaimed “conservative activist” who tries to “catch” so-called “liberals” or other people he doesn’t like doing things that are supposedly embarrassing. You may remember him from such films as ACORN. (It wasn’t called ACORN, but that story got a lot of coverage at the time. Probably more than it deserved, honestly.)
In this case I read the comment that mentioned Son of The Invisible Man and wondered what it was. So I googled it. Shockingly, it is available instantly, if unofficially, on YouTube. You here you go.

Superfriends Stop The Oil Spill [Cartoons to the Rescue]
The Superfriends know how to stop the oil spill. Or at least they have some experience with oil spills.
This clip is from way back in 1980.

Funny how this was a problem thirty years ago and still nobody seems to know how to fix it. OK, funny is the wrong word. Disturbing? Negligent? Criminal? All of the above?
I talked about this clip, the BP oil spill, and how Sarah Palin blames environmentalists for the disaster on my radio show/podcast last week. Listen to it here.
