We all love a good movie with a broken-love story, a guy trying to make it big, the struggles of your average Joe’s daily life. But, even better is a film sporting our local talent. Comedian Paul Snodgrass is releasing his masterpiece “Casting Me” this week around the Cape. With a great cast and many […]
Bondi Hipsters is a web series featuring Adrian and Dom – two eco-conscious, party animal hipsters from Australia. Yes, Australian hipsters. They also write and perform incredible post-modern, ironic music videos. This is one of them, called “The Life Ironic”. No one else has heard of this yet, so you better check it out first – after the jump!

Our buddy, and hilarious comedian, Stuart Taylor is putting on a great show at the Baxter Theatre. The run starts tomorrow night, and makes light of the fact that most of us are horrendously broke at the moment. And the best part? At the end of the run, Stuart will be paying off the credit […]
The caper film is one of the most difficult to pull off, but when executed in style – delivers sheer exhilaration as though you are a part of the action, committing the crime yourself as witnessed in movies like The Italian Job, Ocean’s Eleven, The Sting, Catch Me If You Can and Inception… so how does Skeem measure up?
Being hard of hearing is most likely difficult enough as it is. So, you can imagine the anger of some BBC viewers when errors in the live captions started talking about “pigs nibbling on willies”, instead of wellies, and spoke of “a moment’s violence”, instead of silence, at the Queen Mother’s funeral.
Have you ever wished you could be someone else for a day, a week, a lifetime? The Change-Up will give you a couple of good reasons to stop doing that in the body-swap movie to rule them all… starring Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds. This is not a Disney movie folks, in fact, it’s what the Farrelly brothers were […]
Whether you’re kickin’ in the front seat, or sittin’ in the back seat, this September 24th is officially South Africa’s Braai Day – and what better way to get down on the Braai Day vibe than take a squizz at this priceless parody of Rebecca’s internet YouTube sensation ‘Friday’? Check out the Braaiday vibe after the jump! We so excited, we we so excited!
Van Halen first sang about the rite of passage in 1984, but every schoolboy (and girl) will be able to remember when they were hot for teacher. Cooped up in a classroom, going through that awkward phase, the raging hormones, the hungry eyes (another movie) and fantasising about what it’d be like for teacher to […]
You guys remember Dave Chappelle, right? The comedian. He was sort of a big deal. Then he burnt out on the Chappelle’s Show and disappeared for about five years, staying almost entirely away from the press, until he turned up on San Francisco’s WiLD 94.9 for a morning interview yesterday. Give it a whirl.
Paul Snodgrass is back with his hit one-man show I’M SO LONELY from the 11th to 13th August 2011 at On Broadway. After a sold-out run at the Baxter Theatre, Snoddie will perform the show for the last time, before starting on his next one man show. For three nights only come and see the […]
2oceansVibe Radio’s Drive Time Robbery co-host and generally self-effacing, funny and nice human being, Martin Evans, will be performing a one man comedy show at the Grahamstown Festival this year. The show chronicles the worst year of Martin’s life. SPOILER ALERT! It actually turns out to be the best year of his life. But the […]
Earlier this week, 2oceansVibe columnist, Sipho Hlongwane, had the local comedy circuit up in arms over a column titled “Where Are All The Good Comedians?”, which was strongly critical of the state of comedy in South Africa. The column triggered a vehement response from fans of local comedy, and many comedians themselves. Loyiso Gola, the […]
Yesterday afternoon, a column written by Sipho Hlongwane lamenting what he saw to be a lack of quality comedic performance in South Africa was published on 2oceansVibe.com. The article attracted a flurry of comments, all of which were strongly opinionated. Now Loyiso Gola, South African comic and main subject of Sipho’s column, has responded. Click […]
Who told Loyiso Gola that he is funny? I need answers. How did he come to have a comedy TV show, and why is the country putting up with this gigantic farce? People even follow him on Twitter. Why?! What is so appealing about having an alarmingly round face shout inanities at you in caps lock? I’m serious – I need to know. Am I the loony one here? [click link to read column]
Just Go With It is more than just a movie title, it’s advice for the audience. After 20 odd years of friendship between Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston, the two stars have finally done a movie together! The delay could have due to the pair not being a natural on-screen match. On the other hand, […]
Many a time have my friends and I sat down and battled with our wits, arguing over which comedy movie is the best of all time. We need no longer argue, as the good readers of College Humor have voted on what the top 100 comedies of all time are. I mostly agree , except that Anchorman is number one, fact!
We just had MC Hammer and Jordy Smith in the studio and I’ve got hot seats for the U2 concert in February. But let me tell you now, the fact that Jim Jefferies is coming to town, may well top all of those. That’s right folks. And if you aren’t aware of the most foul-mouthed, […]
Due Date is delivered to screen by Todd Phillips, who is the quintessential frat house comedy director with The Hangover, Road Trip, Old School under his belt and The Hangover Part II in the works. If it were a baby, it’d be a poison dwarf: ginger-bearded, brutally funny and pretty darn mean. However, it’s not […]
It didn’t take long for the inevitable parodies of our Mr South Africa hero, Adriaan Bergh, to start travelling the interwebs. While this latest Mr South Africa wannabe certainly has potential, he unfortunately lacks the fifth and most important characteristic that we look for in a Mr South Africa which is, of course, access to a golf cart.
The BBC has a new show called The Trip, which features two of Britain’s greatest comedians, Gavin & Stacey’s Rob Brydon and Alan Partridge’s Steve Coogan. In this clip, the two try to outdo each other with their Michael Caine impressions and the result is further proof that no one does comedy quite like the Brits.
There’ve been a couple of Inception spoofs floating around the interwebs lately, mostly centered on how ridiculously convoluted the plot is. That’s cool and all, but what about the real question – what would you really do if you could mess with people’s heads using a dramatic soundtrack and Ellen Page? This video answers that.
It’s Wednesday morning, and you want to enrich your life by watching some entertaining videos on the internet. Problem: you have a job that demands more attention than you can spare between autotuned versions of that one politician freaking out. Solution: 5secondfilms, hilarious online shorts that don’t waste your time with setup. Advantage: 2oceansvibe.
Piranha 3D is best described as a blend of Jaws, Girls Gone Wild and Joe’s Apartment and falls into the so-bad-it’s-almost-good category of films. Now depending on your taste in film that could be a fantastic or horrible combination, because there’s no fence-sitting on this one – you’ll either love or hate it.
Here we have Galifianakis getting interviewed by radio host Gordon Keith to promote It’s Kind Of A Funny Story – and the awkward pauses and non sequiturs should be familiar to those of you keeping up with your 2oceans assignments.
The legendary Canadian actor, Gordon Pinsent, reads us his favorite parts from musical monolith Justin Bieber’s memoirs. Bieber has a tremendous amount to say about his 16 years of experience, and we are grateful for his sharing with us.
The Switch is not what you’re expecting. Whenever someone starts sloshing a cup of sperm around, everyone immediately flashes back to There’s Something About Mary with Ben Stiller’s vanishing sperm act and Cameron Diaz’s extra strength “hair gel”. Yes, there is a masturbation scene… and no, you don’t get to see Jason Bateman yanking the […]
