To the best NBA analyst on the planet, go the spoils of Cool & Dre.
This is one of the most beautifully crafted CGI pieces I’ve ever seen. Great theme, great storytelling, great music. Before I over-kvell, by the way, the theme of this video is dependence, and the burden that we bear in carrying it around. Which is, of course, why I live in a void-vacuum where nothing may distract me from my internet studies.
Last night, I went to the EchoPlex for a mashup-type show, starring a bunch of vaguely familiar-looking internet people. As we moved through the crowd, we came across one in particular. He was a burly-ish Australian with a handlebar mustache who was bare-chested except for two star-shaped nipple pasties.
As he stopped to survey the dancers on stage (many of whom were male and semi-clad), he commented to my girlfriend “Man, they’re so smoking hot!” As she turned to ponder why he was talking to her, he remarked, totally deadpan, “Hey! You’re not my mom!” And sauntered off. It took me a few hours, but I put the mental pieces together and realized where I had seen him before:
Kick ass mashup of the Coasters song, “Down in Mexico”, set to The Empire Strikes Back. via Milk and Cookies.
For those of you who may or may not enjoy quasi-legal forms of entertainment, this may enhance your own internal odyssey. It’s the final sequence of 2001: A Space Odyssey, with the soundtrack replaced by Pink Floyd: Echoes. This is the lesser known version of playing Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, to a sequence in the Wizard of Oz. And the payoff is quite good.
That vaguely sounded like something out of a Peter Cetera entry on the Karate Kid Soundtrack, it would look like this:
A remix of the classic Fatboy Slim music video that is arguably better than the original.
I really don’t know how I missed out on the whole Paul is Dead, urban legend. But this piece sums it up rather nicely.
A homeless man trying to support two children surely knows the meaning of being under pressure.
