Whether these two otters were really holding hands or not is really superfluous when the adoring onlookers see what they want to see. This is cute and all but for my books it doesn't come anywhere near the baby polar bear . If there was a 'cute' smackdown cage match, that polar bear would take all challengers.
Here's an animated clip for a song that just gets played and played. 'Cows With Guns' is a true viral music hit. I heard it a couple of years ago but hadn't seen this animation until now. Everybody loves a good story and hearing about the uprising a bovine herd is just a fun trip. You may have heard this before but I bet it will put a smile on your face if you hear it again. The man behind the song is Dana Lyons, an independant singer/songwriter who tours with this song all over the world.
There have been many fake videos of Grand Theft Auto 4 circulating around the net. Here for your perusal is the first Official GTA:4 Trailerin all it's glory. If you happen to be a certain lawyer in Florida then this is most likely the first sign of the Apocalypse. Elsewhere I can already see the parents' groups and Hilary Clinton getting ready to pounce on this. Of course it looks like an absolutely freakin' amazing videogame environment to have fun in and will no doubt sell millions upon millions of copies. To see it in a higher resolution click here.
Have you seen Paris Hilton in a Fatboy Slim video before? Well, you have and you haven't. It seems that this footage from one of his videos featuring Paris was cut and is now available predominantly on the Internet. The full music video also came under fire from minority groups for some questionable content involving racist undertones. You can read about the controversy here.
This isn't the best trailer mashup I've seen but it is pretty good to suddenly turn 'Fight Club' into a quirky romantic comedy. Anyone who can turn Marla Singer into a romantic ingenue deserves a little respect. If you're looking for another great mashup, try Tom Hanks as the next Bond .
Literally. This commercial has a lot of balls. Bouncing ones. This is a commerical similar to the paint one for Sony 's HDTV , the Bravia . Check the second vid for a behind the scenes look at the commercial.
Here are seven very short and very funny little clips. The idea of injecting a single balloon into some very famous films is so simple that it probably shouldn't be as funny as it is. The thing that really sells them though is how good the compositing of the balloons is. If it looked fake then it would have been forgettable. As it is, it's both clever and amusing.
As a bit of trivia, the animator of these short films is Jerry Rees who was also the visual effects supervisor on TRON and later directed 'The Marrying Man' starring Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin.
