The Awesome Videos Thread (with Extra Sauce!)



Yeah it's 50 minutes long, but well worth it.

Can't be bothered to watch?

15 yr old boy from England watches Blue Lagoon during the 80's. Decides that he must recreate it for himself. Plans for 3+ years with stumbles along the way. Eventually succeeds and has his Blue Lagoon fantasy brought to life with the girl of this dreams! Mother nature doesn't give a shit about the dreams of 18 year old boys from England. 12 years later, the participants return and analyze their adventure as adults.

I can't stop watching these guys: https://www.youtube.com/user/filmriot

And yes, that's where I learned the Guy Ritchie title sequence that I posted in the art subforum. Expect even more blatant rip-offs as I learn after effects.

Their format is really good. They start with a short sketch that demonstrates the technique, and then give a how-to. I like the level they aim at, too. They assume you already have at least a passing familiarity with the software. They do have baked-in ads, but those are actually worth watching, too. Because they're funny.

I've seen something similar to this in my nightmares. Even looking UP at our tower gives me the willies. I can't imagine doing 9 somersaults before popping a chute off of it.

Korean girls try American snacks. You can tell the producer was a sadist because the last item is Warheads.

I hope somebody explained to them that nobody eats warheads because they think it tastes good, it's more for elementary school kids trying to show off how hardcore they are.

Keep in mind kimchi, they'd probably be like "what, is this for babies?"
Never having had kimchi, I'll have to take your word for it. Another good one to have given them though, would have been a full size Jawbreaker. Man, I miss when "hard to eat" was a selling point for candy.
 
If you're used to eating spicy foods, kimchi can be pretty mild. It has a different flavor profile though, which can make it seem spicier.

I wish these had been included.
EDIT: Sheesh, my mouth is watering just from the view presented to me by Google image search.

Really? When I've had Japanese curry, it's tended towards the sweet side. Spiciest curry I've ever had was at this Malaysian restaurant.
 
*Looks up Eat Your Kimchi*

Oh, that guy. Well, I used to eat curry made by my Japanese friend's grandma, but go ahead and take Eat Your Kimchi's word for it. :p
