"Franz Ferdinand Frontman Shot By Gavrilo Princip Bassist"

Oh, Onion: "We ask fans to cooperate with Interpol to find the assailant, and call upon British Sea Power, Snow Patrol, and The Postal Service for help," drummer Paul Thompson told music magazine NME Monday. "The suspect had links to The Decemberists and The Libertines, and we are following up on all leads."

What, no "I predict a riot" Kaiser Chiefs joke?

As a Ghostface Killah, I can without a doubt say this looks like BRICK — In Theaters March 31st — or worse.
