Plan B - All Time Best YouTube Remixes

My orignial plan was to blog about about the following:
  1. 2008 being the Summer of the Superhero (because of Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, the new Batman, and Dr Horrible's Sing-A-Long Blog, etc.); and
  2. A deconstruction of the role of the Supervillan, by comparing Neil Patrick Harris' "Dr. Horrible" to Heath Ledger's "Joker".



But right now I am a bit dissolusioned about discussing anything Batman related because of the Christian Bale arrest, so, instead, I present to you a review of YouTube's Best Remixes.

Number 5 - "Shining"



The Shining directed by Cameron Crowe instead of Stanley Kubrick. Apparantly the key difference between horror and feel-good family comedy is putting Peter Gabriel's "Solsbury Hill" in your soundtrack.

Number 4 - "Brokeback to the Future"



This makes me giggle.

Number 3 - "ROFLMAO"



A Muppet Show classic remixed by World of Warcraft. Cute.

Number 2 - "Scary Mary"



Mary Poppins = Devil Spawn.

Number 1 - "Bert and Ernie tries Gangsta Rap"



And the video that inspired this blog in the first place. Thank you AV Club:Videocracy! Bert and Ernie represent that Seseme Street, son!

Okay, so the Shining - that's pure brilliance. It's, like, the feel-good movie of the year!

Dr. Horrible commentary would be most welcome - especially as I learned a number of fans were upset at the ending. Cry babies. Can't say that I've seen Batman (and I probably won't - looks too scary for me) but I can appreciate a comparison, having read a few Batman comics...
