What's new and/or interesting in Philly theaters this weekend.

The thought occurs: Johnny Depp fourteen years ago looks a lot like Orlando Bloom today. Coincidence, or conspiracy?

Editor's note: This review contains some comments and descriptions that could be considered "spoilers," but only if you're unfamiliar with the story of Sweeney Todd, which is unforgivable anyway, so we have little sympathy for you.

A steaming hot pile of our favorite things from around the internets. Phillyist Sarah is always tempting this Phillyist with articles on food blogs about inventive things to do with bacon, but this may be our favorite yet - bacon chocolate chip cookies with maple cinnamon glaze. Imagine Homer Simpson with his held tilted back, his eyes glazed over, and drool dripping out of his mouth, and you will understand our reaction. The first Speed...

...Drunk Drunk Drunkity Drunk Drunk: Paris Hilton finally got hers. (Via Yahoo!)

    No doubt about it, Philly's got a lot to offer: a thriving theatre scene (don't forget, Fringe is just around the corner), fabulous museums, loads of live music and more historical hoopla than you can shake a stick at. However, there are some hotspot trends in places far, far away that look cool too, and Phillyist is wondering why local entreupenuers aren't jumping all over them. Dammit! We want them too!
  • Private room karaoke: It's like having a karaoke bar cater just to you and your friends (think Lost in Translation). We'd heard whispers that there was a place that did this in Chinatown, but that it is no longer. If that's the case, the city needs to give this method of musical debauchery a second chance. We gave this a try in Japan, and spent five hours singing ourselves hoarse. Somehow it's simply easier to make a musical ass out of yourselves among a small group of close friends rather than a bar full of strangers. AND you don't end up waiting as long for a microphone.
  • Live band karaoke: Caught this on a recent episode of Queer Eye, and if anything can help assuage our frustrated rock star fantasies more effectively than the many hours we spend playing Guitar Hero this is it.
  • Pirate Theme Bars: All right - maybe we're not a hotbed for piratical history - but we've got two whole rivers, and sure that should count for something, nautically speaking. Think of the fun locals could have banding together at the local pirating watering hole, filling up on grog and rum, and then assailing the Duck Boats in full regalia and relieving the tourists of those blasted quackers once and for all. Why, it'd practically be a pirate public service. (Just remember, not everyone can be Captain Jack Sparrow - unless they are, in fact, Johnny Depp. In which case, please do not send him to the Pirate Bar. Send him directly to Phillyist.)
  • A steaming hot pile of our favorite *movie-related* things from around the internets. (We saw a theme coming up in the items we were finding for today, so we decided to go with it. Enjoy a special all-movie edition!)

    If you were looking for us between the hours of 8PM last night and, oh, now, you might have noticed we'd disappeared. That, combined with the recent technical difficulties that you've no doubt noticed, might have made the more caring amongst you afraid for our health.

    South Philly Blocks makes grilled cheese the Benny & Joon way - although they rely on the hotness of a clothes iron rather than the hotness of Johnny Depp. (via)
     
    Where do you go when you're looking for the latest Philadelphia fashion trends? Apparently, the Mummers Museum...at least if you're Broad&Market.
     
    Philly loves its Battlestar Galactica- MidnightBlue laughs it up old school while Blankbaby looks to the future season. (We have to wait until October? Sigh.)
