Chad, Matt, and Rob - The Time Machine

Remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books?  The ones where you had to go to page 112 to fight the dragon or page 216 to leave in the space ship?  Well, this is the YouTube equivalent.  I hope to see more Chad, Matt, and Rob adventures in the future!

Mega Man vs. Hard Hat

Joe Rovang… you’re my new hero. This video is made of pure win.

I’ve also decided that I post so many mega man articles that MM gets a whole category all to himself.

Scribble-whats?

I… am… totally… amazed.  Words fail me.  Have I said yet that the Nintendo DS is the best system ever invented?  What?  Not today?  Ok.  The Nintendo DS is the best system ever invented.

The Price is (Exactly) Right

Wow.  That’s just… wow.

I’m a little inclined to believe it’s rigged, but I guess, statistically speaking, anything’s possible.  If true, then it sure does beat Drew Carey’s Price is Right premiere where everyone won every game (especially if that one was really rigged.)  The moral of the story is that if you are going to be on a game show, be on a game show with Drew Carey.

This guy has way too much time on his hands.  And his kids have a cool dad.

Chuck Versus the Gravitron

Combine Chuck, one of my favorite TV shows, with the Gravitron, one of my all time favorite amusement park rides, and you get an excellent episode.  Favorite parts:

  • “Husky lads throughout Burbank went without britches for Christmas.”
  • Big Mike body slamming the bad guy and sending him flying.
  • “You’re under arrest, Jill, and I’m breaking up with you.”
  • Morgan digging through the trash for a turkey.

Megaman Movie Trailer

I have never been so excited for something so low budget.  The beginning is cheese, but the ending is intense!  Great special effects and an exciting musical score.

Pushing Daisies Cancelled

Pushing Daisies

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I’m not the type of person to really watch dramas.  Sometimes I get hooked on shows like Grey’s Anatomy… but then I realize what kind of garbage those shows are and stop watching.

But Pushing Daisies was different.  I didn’t really want to like the show, but it’s simple awesomeness won me over easily.  It was like watching an episodic Little Shop of Horrors, right down to having Audrey in the cast.  It was a macabre Stephen King novel, masquerading as a fairy tale.  What’s not to like?

All I can say is ABC sucks…

Embedding Video in Video

Ok, I must admit that this technology developed by some Stanfurd guys is very cool.  Their examples for using this technology are mainly advertisement embedding, but I think that ads are just the beginning.  The ability to detect near/far objects in a 2D, moving image, and to do so cheaply, is a major milestone for independent videos.  Just couple this idea with cheap, 3D rendering software and I’m sure some film student could make a movie to rival Star Wars Episode 3.  (Hmmm… I guess a kindergartner with crayons and scotch tape could make a better movie than Star Wars Episode 3, but that’s not my point.)

Oh yeah, and take off that red shirt!
