Taluntain · Mon, 4th Sep '06, 1:16am

It's about time we had one of these, non?

Let me start with this: http://www.gametrailers.com/umwatcher.php?id=12321

Impressive.

Here's my contribution. I'd say it falls under the "funny" category, but that is probably up to you to decide:

Tal's reminded me of what my old Hotwheels track set-ups used to be like.

Harbourboy · Mon, 4th Sep '06, 3:19am

That's nuts, Tal. That's a real game? I am always amazed by your ability to come up with wierd things (like all the Odd News you find).

jaded empath · Mon, 4th Sep '06, 5:14am

Well, here's a hopefully chuckle-worthy vid:
"Here It Goes Again" by OK Go

Dice · Mon, 4th Sep '06, 6:00am

Oh geez wow! All three of those videos were cool and they had great music too. I hope this thread continues with such great stuff.

Argohir · Mon, 4th Sep '06, 12:20pm

Here is a good one

And this is cool

Edits: This is similar to the one above

This is the best lightsaber video I have ever seen.

jaded empath · Mon, 4th Sep '06, 2:33pm

Aye, that last was 'impressive...most impressive'

And iFilm happened to have a "people who liked that also liked these" list that led me to this chuckle: Legacy of the Jedi

EDIT: and then there's old classics like:
Xiao Xiao, 3

Xiao Xiao, 7

(and yes, I'm not gonna leave you with that cliffhanger: Xiao Xiao, 8 - the creator decided to leave us all with this 'TBC' instead

)

EDIT 2: Annnd, for a touch of humor: Xiao Xiao, 5

Okay, I've seen this a couple of times on cable (Discovery channel, I think) and I never heard all of it the first time due to my laughs of delight.

For anyone that's wondered what poor ol' Kuemper is going on about when she expresses difficulting in understanding 'Baymen' (Newfoundlanders from outside of St. John's), I have an example.

Nissan X-Terra 'Bonavista Edition' Ad

S'good to see that big companies are dredging the bottom of the idea barrel to the point of 'exploiting' the unique (and usually cryptic) dialect of a small, 1/2 million... ethnological...um...'unit'???

But anyways, I can turn a phrase like that, but livin' in "Town" for most my life, and having a Limey father means I can't really speak 'bayman' nice and fast. And NO, I am neither insulted nor offended at all at this wonderful exposure of our glorious linguistic culture.

Killjoy · Fri, 8th Sep '06, 4:15am

Michael Jackson's "Thriller" music video choreographed with the cast of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within

Wiley One · Sun, 10th Sep '06, 3:25pm

Killjoy, that was pretty cool. It still amazes me sometimes what these animators can do.

Saber · Mon, 11th Sep '06, 4:20am

Here is FPS Doug playing CS:S. It is very funny if anyone plays FPSs or if you know obsessors.

WARNING: Intense language.

Triactus · Tue, 19th Sep '06, 3:50am

Alas, I have a poor internet connection (56k modem... and yes, those still exist...

), it's hard for me to watch the videos. But I can include one, though. It's a amateur show (with th eUniversity of Ottawa's community television) that I actually shortly worked on. It's the Library Skit (it's based on a news we saw that the campus library opened until 2 am. We thought it would be funny to party in there). Enjoy! (and I have a cameo as the guy falling down the stairs...

)

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...om+productions

P.S: They made a mistake in editing because de music is not synchronised with the lyrics... But it's funny anyways..

Morgoth · Sat, 7th Oct '06, 11:59am

Guess the record!

Some blood, for the rest it's the same thing you see in a recordstore

Rolsuk Fryulee · Thu, 9th Nov '06, 2:56am

Charlie the Uunicorn

This one cracks me up every time

kuemper · Thu, 9th Nov '06, 8:27pm

Here's one I saw on another forum:

Trunk Monkey*

*pending approval by Attorney General.

Cúchulainn · Tue, 14th Nov '06, 3:44pm

Probably the creepiest movie scene ever.

iLLusioN' · Tue, 14th Nov '06, 4:51pm

lol Saber what episode is that? at school I can't watch it for some reason.

Trunk monkey is great

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...38454368139031

have to watch it till the end for it to be funny

8people · Fri, 17th Nov '06, 8:02pm

I know what I want to do this Christmas! XD

The Wizards of Winter

Kitrax · Sat, 18th Nov '06, 1:24pm

Ok, for those of you who *have not* seen Weird Al's version of "Ridin'", here is 'White and Nerdy'! Go check it out and have a good laugh.

And those of you who haven't seen the End of the World flash movie, you *really* need to go watch it. It has a relatively long load...so STFU already!

(it has some bad language in it...but it is a must see! If the link above doesn't work, here's a 2nd link to the same movie )

kuemper · Sat, 18th Nov '06, 10:37pm

A RuneScape movie, but it works well for any online game. Trust me.

Give Me GP Eileen

Iku-Turso · Sun, 19th Nov '06, 7:14pm

This would be funny no matter who'd be mixed into this, but since it's The Leader of the Most Powerful Nation in the World... Beatboxing Bush

Taluntain · Tue, 21st Nov '06, 2:23am

http://www.videosift.com/story.php?id=21253

Mesmero · Tue, 21st Nov '06, 9:47am

Top Gear Rules!

OK, the last one is a bit long, but good. Top Gear probably is the best thing the Brits ever made.

jaded empath · Wed, 22nd Nov '06, 4:11pm

Well, it's that time of year, and I might as well as let y'all know about the *rest* of this "Wizard of Winter"'s clips:

the second (scat-doodily-icious)

'christmas lights 3' (same song, diff house)

#4 - now it's getting movie-soundtrack-riffic!

This guy must do *wonderful* work at his day job of rigging rock concerts' light shows.

And I'm ashamed with ALL of us (myself most of all) that no one has yet mentioned here the viral phenom that is Chad Vader
