Video Killed the Radio Star: New Spider-Man Trailer



I could have turned this into a Venting the Anger post, but let's try and be positive here. Spider-Man does have web shooters again and he does appear to have some of the classic wise cracking humor going on here.

So I won't mention Peter creating the formula to turn Connors into the Lizard or the fact that once again we will have a super long scene in which Spider-Man runs around the city without his mask on. Or the fact that Peter's parents are somehow related to Connors, even though they are best remembered for a 90's storyline in which they were spies/traitors/SHIELD agents...so I am sure this movie can clear that up.

Video Killed the Radio Star: How Star Wars should have ended

I showed this video to a couple of friends a few weeks ago. No idea why it took so long for me to put it up here.

best part...Yoda's line, "awkward, this is."

Inside Four Walls: Wonder if American students would do this...

...to get to school

just goes to show how in some parts of the world education is more valuable than others. I can see not only the students saying school's not that important and also the parents. Interesting.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Is this what I sound like?

A short video of what comic book nerds say. I will admit to saying some of these. The one that sticks out is the whole "Galactus is a cloud?" because every time I talk about FF2 I always say that.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Prometheus Trailer

Late to the party that's for sure, but this looks good. I am a fan of the first two Alien movies...the rest were so bad...just bad. So when rumors of a Ridley Scott movie based of the famed "space jockey" was announced I kind of perked up. But when the trailer was released last week...

...I am at full attention now. This is a must see for me. This thing screams Alien prequel down to the ship. How can this not be the same planet in Alien/Aliens?

Video Killed the Radio Star: Thank God it wasn't a terrorist attack...

This is just too perfect. Wolf Blitzer is interviewing a man right after the earthquake from last week and ... just watch.


classic

Video Killed the Radio Star: Artificial...yes, Intelligent...no.

From io9.com, seems like someone decided to put two AI chatbots together to see what would happen. Seems cool right? Maybe plot about Judgement Day? Or complain about humans? Nope;

Funny how computers even get pissed at stupid people.

Best comment from io9, "Scientists force two chatbots to have a conversation, prove that Skynet will be a moron"

Video Killed the Radio Star: Times of Grace - Live in Love



Great video. I love videos that have a purpose instead of just showing guys playing guitars. The message at the end made me feel like I was watching our school's Peer Counseling video they put out every year. Even though I would love this song, I doubt anyone else would. But the message is a good one.

Heck if you aren't into metal, turn it down to watch the stats they show. And as for the message being good...here's the lyrics;
Just live in love, believe in love

In my life I have seen all the ways hatred destroys mankind
Break societies system, change the mind state, there's no compromise
Don't mistake kindness and compassion for weakness
It takes so much more strength to be selfless and live in love

I trust you live in selflessness and live in love

Through all the days, just live in love
Through all the pain, believe in love

(I change to think you not, it tries to function if this world...)
Take the time to think about your life, live righteous

I trust you live in selflessness and live in love

Through all the days, just live in love
Through all the pain, believe in love

The words we speak, the ones we don't say
Power you don't know you could say
Through all the days, believe in love

Don't you see, we are off
Don't you see, we are off
Brothers and sisters, we are one
Brothers and sisters, we are one
WE ARE ONE

And I pray this is not in vain, all that you know about, all you can hide
How would you feel inside (Live in love)
All that you know about, all you can hide
How would you feel inside (Live in love)
All that you know about, all you can hide (Through all the days)
How would you feel inside (Live in love)
All that you know about, all you can hide (Through all the pain)
How would you feel inside (Live in love)

Video Killed the Radio Star: Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones

Anyone that knows anything about Indiana Jones or Magnum P.I. knows that Tom Selleck was up for the lead role in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Due to Magnum though, he couldn't do it. What I never knew until I saw this on Topless Robot, was that there was a test shoot of him as Indy, with Marion.

That was...interesting. Harrison Ford will always be Indy. This just sort of sealed it for me. I felt like I was watching an episode of Magnum.

Anyway, totally unrelated, someone created a Han Solo P.I. opening;


pretty good, but check out just how close the movements are to the original;

someone spent a lot of time on that one.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Soccer Trophy Ran Over on Victory Parade

Classic moment. Team is celebrating winning a championship and someone drops it and it gets run over by the bus carrying the team. Too funny. It happens around the 15 second mark from the left side of the bus to the right tire. Didn't the driver notice the big trophy in front of the bus?

Video Killed the Radio Star: Earth Day Hippies Save the World

I have been known to make fun of hippies and generalize them. Well this video isn't going to help stop that.


Thanks to Buckhorn Road for the video.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Lesson in Socialism on Video!

Awhile back I talked about a small lesson I do once a year about "redistributing" points to help out the lower students. It's a fun little lesson.

Anyway, someone took that idea to a college campus...just watch the hilarity!


the funny thing is the comments the lefties make about how you can't compare the two...

Video Killed the Radio Star: A girl turns to the Darkside at Disneyland's Jedi Training Academy

First off my son loves this show. If we are near it when it starts we have to watch it. Plus every time he opens his lightsaber at home he says "activate".

Anyway. This is a cute little video of a girl who takes Vader up on his offer to join the darkside. Give credit to the Jedi Master on improving his script.

I can't believe she actually kneeled down like Vader does...classic.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Nice drive on the highway

Just watch this video, it's only 40 seconds.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Bully gets body slammed

This video is making its way around the internet. And all I can say is this is what needs to happen to bullies. The bully was suspended for 21 days, while the other kid got 4. I mean he did body slam the kid, but I would have given him only one and said he was defending himself. Oh well, the little kid will think twice I guess.

Video Killed the Radio Star: Boom goes the Dynamite

I think I might be late to the party on this one, but this is great. Poor kid filling in on an actual newscast. There are so many great moments...


Now as funny as that was apparently it took off and went viral. So much so that it has its own Wikipedia entry.

Look at all the times it was referenced in Popular Culture...23 times and there are probably more that aren't listed.
