Likely scenario: you're sitting in your office or at home and check your inbox. Someone's sent you a message. Subject: You Gotta See This. Body: This movie is ridiculous. A guy falls in love with a girl and she's in a wheelchair and they make it all about how they're from totally different worlds and I think at the end he ends up in a wheelchair. You just gotta see it. It's called Wheels . Black 20 is the company behind Wheels and many of the viral videos being passed around on the web. Gothamist sat down with J. Crowley, co-founder of Black20, to find out just what it takes to make it in the world of Internet comedy. more ›

The Catholic League had said it was highly offensive to display a sculpture of Jesus with "his genitals exposed" and invite the public to eat it. more ›

SFist commeters pose for before and aftershocks when the mayor commemorates a 1906 earthquake...at 4:30 in the morning. A hot tip on the Chronicle vending machines comes in and the SFist war correspondent risks life and limb to post this dispatch from the frontlines. more ›

In an early gift from the Easter Bunny (in the form of Jesse Chan-Norris), Gothamist received a picture of the other giant inflatable baseball cap yesterday. The Yankee cap is on 6th Avenue and the Mets cap is near the Queensborough Bridge on the Manhattan side. Is anybody else wondering what kind of insurance coverage they need for these huge caps? And we kind of think our photoshop job looks better than the end result. more ›

Easter is almost here, which means that the Easter Bunny is almost here - as well as thoughts, "Hey, maybe I should get a bunny." The ASPCA strongly recommends that people buy chocolate bunnies instead of real live ones, because they don't realize what it makes to care for a rabbit and then end up leaving a bunny at a shelter (if people really think they are capable of owning a bunny, they should read this and consider adopting a rescue bunny). Gothamist wholeheartedly endorses the idea of buying chocolate bunnies - just last night, we found ourselves eating some ridiculously delicious chocolate truffle Easter bunnies from Williams-Sonoma (we got them as a gift and can't find them online, sadly) - and we will get our bunny fix by watching the Brooklyn Bunny webcam and looking at photos tagged "bunny" on Flickr. And if you don't like chocolate, there are always bunny Peeps to go along with Peeps chicks as well as a Pat the Bunny book and plush. more ›

Ooh - the owners of an East 18th Street Manhattan brownstone are under fire for their wacky Christmas display. The Post puts the Krupnik-Castellanos display - "a skinny, bloody-bearded Santa holds a knife in his left hand and the severed head of a doll - blood gushing from its eye sockets in the other" - on its cover. The owners, Joel Krupnik and Mildred Castellanos, explain its their protest against Christmas's commercialization. Well, it's not Dyker Heights, that's for sure! But people in the neighborhood are pretty upset, with some neighbors chasing Castellanos and others imploring the police to do something (they can't). Plus the little kids are scared. Gothamist thinks this is kind of great, if grisly; we'd like Krupnik and Castellanos put up decorations year round... maybe a strung out Valentine's Cupid, depressed Leprauchan, drunken Easter Bunny... the possibilities are endless. more ›

Gothamist always eagerly anticipates the Easter Bunny's annual visit. Not only does it mean we get to gorge ourselves on Cadbury Creme Eggs and Peeps (which we don't go anywhere near the rest of the year or we'd be bouncing off the walls), but even more so than the sugar high, we can look forward to a delectable meal. But where to go? Well, for starters, New York Magazine highlights a few spots for Easter pastries and breads, Italian style, which always makes for a good start, or at least can serve as a snack to hold you over until the main event -- the Easter brunch or dinner. Several restaurants are offering special Easter menus. Gothamist is going to Lupa to enjoy their four-course Easter feast courtesy of chef Mark Ladner, featuring Roman Easter soup with lamb meatballs, among other dishes. more ›

Gothamist was strolling around the Upper West Side yesterday, when we were suddenly suspicious of (okay, knocked around by) all the children milling about, namely children wearing bunny ears, with painted faces, and holding Easter egg baskets. Then it dawned on us: The Central Park Eggstravaganza. The 57th Easter Egg hunt has fun for the whole family, with jelly-bean filled Easter eggs on the lawn for kids to pick up and the Easter Bunny about. As the Post reports, a cop yelled to the "heedless" crowd: "Two eggs each! You take more than two, you get locked up!" Gothamist thinks some kids took more than two, as many kids were hyper or cranky, from the sugar high. more ›
