Jesus Christ nothing pushes my buttons these days like YouTube comments. If I'm dumb enough to scroll down and read them, it almsot kills the enjoyment of the video entirely.
One of the first ones I saw: "Fake!!!"
...
Okay, are you saying that because you suspect that, despite spending three minutes watching SFX guys build the models, you're convinced someone might think the dinosaur are real? Or do you think this entire set-up is some sort of elaborate hoax, that someone got their friends together and said LET'S PRETEND TO BUILD GIANT ROBOT DINOSAURS FOR YOUTUBE? Are you being sarcastic? Are you making a joke? Are you a specialized Enraging YouTube Comment Production Device sent from the future to destroy me? because AURGH. |
Obviously they used CG and animatronic robot people to fake giant dinosaur puppets.
By the way, this is what those puppets are for:

| Holy crap. Something actually happening in my hometown... Too bad I am poor, otherwise I might be inclined to see these robo-dinos. |

I seriously cannot get over the hilarity of the fact that they're ripping off a major Western corporate icon to provide a host for their kiddie intifada show.
In semi-related news, I've finally gotten around to reading Persepolis. It's really great stuff, and I definitely needed the Iran education. We've definitely gotta pick up the second book.

See, I've read the second but not the first. Wanna trade?

This is an old classic, but this is the first time I've seen it with actual video:

EDIT: (Oops... This is a reenactment. I thought Orson was looking a little skinny. Teach me not to link videos before I finish watching them)

Oh, wow.
A eight minute preview of a documentary called My Mother's Garden. It's about a compulsive hoarder, and it's filmed by one of her kids.
Things have gotten so bad that the woman has completely filled her house with pilfered trash. She has to sleep on a cot in her yard, and despite claiming that she wants to give all of her hoarded treasures to Goodwill or have a yard sale, she flies into a sobbing rage when her kids insist on trying to clean the mess up. |

My parents and some of my aunts and uncles have been through that with my paternal grandmother. Well, it's a bit different in some details. For instance, she mostly hoardes horrible shitty broken furniture and dry goods that get infected wtih mealworms, not recyclables. But it's pretty similar. She "disowned" my parents again after the last clean up attempt...

Really cute, computer-animated, French AIDS awareness commercials, promoting condom use. NWS, but funny. They come in both straight and gay, one of each. Careful though, because for some reason the gay one is MUCH LOUDER than the straight one, so make sure to adjust your speakers.
In case you don't speak French, the slogan at the end of each promo says "Live long enough to find the right one." |
