Digby's so big that he drank A WHOLE LAKE. Stop for a moment and think how big he must be to do that. This is what kids used to watch thirty years ago.
And this is what they watch NOW. Are today's children going to grow up into tomorrow's adults properly if they get brought up on this stuff? Or are they going to carry on being burbling blinking babies? |

I bloody love this thread. The presence of Rhys Thomas in the last clip reminded me of Nathan Barley, who's funny and brilliant because it makes no sense at all. He's a good character and it's a good show because the world he inhabits and almost everyone else make no sense either. All six full episodes can be seen here: Nathan Barley - 4oD - Channel 4

Actually fuck the megalodon: here's Top Cat and the Terminator tearing up the big apple like bears at a beehive. Well actually Strong (Schwarzenegger) tears shit up while Stang (Top Cat) watches from a safe distance whilst exercising his jaw and grievous accent.
...it's got a bit off topic now I think. No more like this, I swear. |

I recenlty spent a good hour finding out about this home-grown (?) meme after clicking on a stray link this weekend.
It's not particularly inventive, but I still absorbed as many examples of them I could find, if ony because it was funny for a spell. Here, I'll feature a few of my favorites of: Guile Theme goes with everything (I think the basic premise is that choice examples of popular and influential cinema and television relevant from the early to mid-90s, up until now, receive a new rendition edgy-and-upbeat BGM, courtesy of the Guile background theme. I didn't even know what it sounded like before this weekend, but now its etched into my mind.) (I really went uncontrollable with raucous laughter at the 10-second mark.) (I'm actually watching this one right at this moment.)

Hey, that's weird.
I was about to submit a video into my "Made in Japan" topic about something similar, but thought to drop in here first to respond to your "original post", oliver... Regarding your first question about whether or not anyone could help you place/sync the Guile theme to the epic volcanic Jedi death-match scene, first off, sorry it took me so long to reply, and second: did you want the entire thing sync'd? That was an 8-min scene, last I saw it. But, though, I do think you had the right idea there; also, I'm not very good at technical "do-it-yourself" video/audio uploads either, so... I'm not much help. Back on track, I guess it couldn't hurt to feature that video here, as its premise doesn't make much sense in the aid to sell more insta-noodles. [nymag.]

Jet: I think I did eventually find something like what I asked for. Now when I search again I can't find it but the moment's passed now - never mind. Yes it's a very long fight. Probably longer than the Guile music lasts. Never mind.
I need to have a better look at your Made in Japan topic. Actually I only found that Nic Cage one by accident - I was looking at one Keanu did in the early 90s with a view to posting it on your recent thread about him, but by then I was already feeling a bit bad for him, and the thought of putting up a video like that of him on that particular thread seemed at odds with its general tone. It felt mean-spirited so I didn't. Anyway more nonsense from Japan: (in the game if you won with Gon this scene played in a neverending loop) And a bit of Xtro in which a woman gives birth to a FULLY GROWN MAN. Bloody brilliant. Unbelievably this isn't even the best scene of the film. The best scene (and an even more nonsensical one) is when Spoiler: a kid's Action Man comes to life, magically grows to human size and gets nasty with a busybody neighbour - who deserved it because earlier she beat the boy's pet snake to death after it accidentally dropped into her salad - but I couldn't find that scene.

9 Deaths of the Ninja Opening Credits
"lonelysandwich" explains: Clearly, this was an attempt at some sort of a Bond-esque intro to the 1985 Shô Kosugi suckfest “Nine Deaths of the Ninja”, what with the sexy(?) leotard dancers Vaselined to within an inch of their lives, the budget fog machine, the best pop ballad $350 could buy, the delightful(?) interplay between weaponry and the female form (which, would it have killed them to rehearse first?). Shô Kosugi was a hero to me as a kid. But had I seen this, my life might’ve gone in a completely other direction. And not into ninjutsu. Like it did. Because I practice the art of the stealth assassin. I’m a pirate. Now I’m a wizard. Now I’m a sexy leotard dancer.

The Most Fun Ever Had In The Entire World Caught On Tape
*Warning* Visual Disclaimer *Warning* - do not watch this video if you even have the slightest inkling that you might be susceptible to an epilectic seizure, caused by disorienting swirling/flashing lights and/or sounds. This very animated commercial(?) has them aplenty, and currently, I am quite dizzy and nauseous myself. Proceed clicking play at your own risk.

Shame on me for not knowing the above video had a context and pre-existing relevance, as well as an inside-joke for being funny, (which I initially missed out on) but I didn't give it too much thought, thinking it was supposed to not make sense, and just be overbearing as so. Silly, silly.

Courtesy of PsychopathicVideo(s), this is "The 11th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos is upon us. By which I mean, the 11th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos infomercial is upon us."
I don't know what a Juggalo is (I'm guessing it's a deranged singing clown; could be wrong with this assumption) but I think this video is nonsensical enough to fit the theme here (didn't watch it, as I rarely watch any youtube video longer than five minutes in length unless I specifically seek it out).
