From YouTube.com user: Olde English Comedy

Brooklyn's Great, Except for...!
As a native Brooklynite, I have always sympathized with growing up in Brooklyn and the undying love that comes with it. The Olde English Comedy group has chosen a rather innovative way to express their love for the "olde" school Brooklyn that thrived during the pre-Nets stadium planning.

They have a knack for utilizing all of the classic symbols of Brooklyn from the famous Brooklyn Brewery logo down to a localized map of the "new" Williamsburg. Eww, hipsters in Brooklyn! Definitley worth the watch for a good laugh that masks what's really happening in the BK. Enjoy!

Chad Vader: Episode 3

From YouTube.com user: Blame Society Films

Chad Vadar as a night manager? It can't be true. Oh, but it is. This short comic movie directed by Matt Sloan and Aaron Yanda chronicles the life of Chad Vadar, the night manager of a supermarket who inherently dresses like and acts like Darth Vadar. Weird? Yes. Funny? Absolutley and a perfect pitch for a side show between commercials for Comedy Central. Not only does this short film incorporate little inuendos from Darth such as the get-up, laser sword and of course his highly machine controled voice and breathing- but the movie also places such a character in contemporary times. Such an eerie situation leaves viewers to imagine, "what if my local supermarket night manager was in some way related to Darth Vadar?" A question that could clearly be answered by authorities from New York's Belvue Hospital but more so a question that is answered via viewing this film. Again, weird? yes. Funny? in a weird, i-can't-believe-someone-actually-came-up-with-this-idea-kind-of-way. It's borderline genius.

Patience

YouTube.com user: Vancouver Film School

Patience really is a virtue. In this Vancouver Film School movie by graduate Scott Campbell, Scott attempts to show us in this pixar-like movie that patience really is a virtue... well at least until you find out who's actually testing patience. We've all been through that mental anxiety race of getting somewhere on time while everything else seems to go against you on your time!

It's a great way to look at life through the eyes of a talented animator. After all, patience is being exerted right now if you are reading this review and have yet watched the movie. :-)

A Big Robot From Outter Space Ate My Homework

From YouTube.com user: Vancouver Film School

After reviewing a few movies from the graduates of the Vancouver Film School, I stumbled across this animated video and found it to be completely hilarious.

In addition to its comic value, the animation is fantastic and well put together as there are very few words of the english language that are used. However with a comical animated student acting out his story, you totally get the point and can visualize the same imagined senario with one of our own teachers from our previous grade school life (maybe even high school or college).

Well worth a look for it's great visuals and plot line, this two-minute movie is a hit! Watch and imagine folks.

Having Tom Cruise's Babies

I find that this You Tube movie arrives in light of the highly anticipated wedding of the weekend and the offspring of such a deliriously absurd couple.

Mark Day has a bunch of hilarious videos in which he points out subjects on matters that either irritate us tremendously or super-random subjects like Diddy's "vagina" via his Proactive ad spot. Talk about someone with lots to say!

Nevertheless, this video eases us into accepting that Tom is crazy and the baby- well, having Tom's baby might not be that bright of an idea after all. Not that we didn't think so in the back of our minds, but it's funny to watch Mark Day come to this totally obvious conclusion.

Enjoy!
