SJ, it's the Eurovision. Sucky songs is what most people expect.

To be honest, I'm shocked at how badly Finland fared this year Perhaps it was because of our positioning; first one to come out, followed by mostly mind-numbing songs that made you forget the "man and his guitar" act Paradise Oskar had on.

^I HATE that video, because it cuts right in the middle of things, so you don't get to sing along or nuffin'.

I once tried making a geared mechanism out of paper for one of my classes; I now hang my head in shame.



The heart one is pretty sweet, too.

This is a friend of mine's final film.

FUN TRIVIA FACT: The main character was designed to look like me!

That was awesome! I love how the dinosaurs are done in a much more realistic style than the people.

 

[drifter]

I would totally live on a dinosaur's back.

TO MINECRAFT!

This looks like it'd be super fun.

That looks like it could be the most epic capture the [X] game ever.

This video contains no spoilers for Portal 2, but it still may surprise you.

Sexy Girls Have It Easy


Very interesting video, though I can spot a few flaws. First, she's not always asking in the same way, especially when it came to the bus and taxis (where she doesn't mention "free" while she's in sexy mode). Second, she's not smiling as her dowdy self. In fact, she's downright scowling at points. Third, she's more polite and coy in her persistence when she's doing the sexy thing. Being belligerent gets you nowhere, especially if you look the part. Despite the exaggerated nature of the video, it's still an interesting look at how society treats appearance.

This is a well done commercial. Even though I had no idea what it was advertizing until it was almost over, it still tied in the product and made it memorable. I remember the specific brand, not just the general category of product. Well played.

Holy..... wow. Just wow steinman. VERY awesome video!

..... I'm sure La Crosse and Curling look weird from an outsider's perspective too. But still; what the crap?

There's so much I want to say in relation to that video and people I know but I think I'll just enjoy how ridiculously accurate that video was and sit here enjoying my proverbial wine.

1) That was great.
2) I just realized who that guy is. Funny guy.

Ok, so there's not much "video" to it... but the song is awesome if you remember where it's originally from... Anybody besides me remember PC gaming in 1992?



You're not a real PC gamer in my book unless you can hum the "apogee intro" song.

Nicely done, Grand Rapids. I have several friends that were involved in this production, and even more that live in the GR area.
