Seattlest watches as a S.L.U.T. is born and Seattle Flickr users go nuts over a local art installation. A restaurant critic demands a Diner's Bill of Rights over a gnat next to her drink, and, in lieu of a Portlandist, Seattlest debates with itself over the identity of the Northwest's crown jewel. Seattlest also joins the guys from Fantagraphics for an ill-fated gun party in the woods.

There's not many reviews for the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie just yet, but the ones we've seen thus far are decidedly mixed. That's to be expected, since some people love the randomness of the Adult Swim cartoon, and some people just don't get it. A sampling of the reviews run the gamut, from this guy saying that it's "the most unbearable and unwatchable movie experience I've had this year" to the Village Voice claiming that "narrative's beside the point in a movie created by two guys who gorge on pop culture's high-fat diet and regurgitate it into something approaching...art? Close enough." Slant Magazine toes the line, concluding that "a second viewing with a joint in hand awaits to determine if its fierce comic bombardment means it's either the worst movie ever made or an act of movie-film revolution."

You may have heard of the feature-length Aqua Teen Hunger Force, out in theaters starting this Friday. We've been excited about the movie film for a while now, and not just because it freaks out the fuzz. We just wanna see what the good folks at Adult Swim can do, given a million bucks and ninety minutes to work with. Based on the trailer, it looks like there's gonna be lots of surreal circumstances, random occurrences, and twisted humor, and not so much by way of coherent plot---just the way we like it.

might be the Best Best of the -ists ever. We're exhausted just thinking about it.
