Miette and Michah having fun throwing stones at the chunks of ice floating in Lake Ontario. Bad ice!
Another weird and wonderful improv piece from New York. I probably would have started giggling, but maybe that’s in the out-take reel. Wonder if this would have worked better with a more Spencer Tunick approach…
For this year’s CES Bill Gates and some other slightly less famous folks* put together a faux “Bill Gates’ Last Day at Microsoft” video. What’s amazing about this is that Bill Gates actually comes across as pretty funny, and I have to admit that I never thought I’d enjoy a Microsoft video direct from source – but it’s good to be proved wrong. Nice job, Bill!
* Some of those less famous folks; Matthew McConaughey, Bono, Jay Z, Al Gore, Hilary Clinton, George Clooney, Steven Spielberg and Jon Stewart. I guess it’s great to have celeb friends and a few billion dollars spare.
Many years ago the Monty Python chaps cames over to the US o’ A to publicize their show for PBS. Luckily for us, an enterprising TV chap kept a small snippet of the interview – featuring Michael Palin, Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam and a mildly inebriated Graham Chapman, all with wonderful 70s hair. Enjoy.
I miss my cat.. Although I suspect if I tried to get her to star in videos like this she’d either give me a look that immediately cut me down to size, or if I was lucky she’d just rake my eyes out.
I love David Cross. And I love David Showalter. If they had a kid he’d be called David Crossalter. Or maybe David Shoss. Even if it was a girl.
I first saw this video on the unfortunately on hiatus RES magazine monthly DVD, and I’ve loved it ever since. Finally it’s turned up on youTube. My favourite part? The mechanic turned stripper – awesome!
For us Brits there is no surprise that Hugh Laurie is such a big success with his Fox series ‘House’, he’s a talented actor that we’ve enjoyed for many years. However there is some level of amazement that Hugh is doing a series with an American accent, and one that is apparently very good. Well he’s been doing it for years, as you can see from this early ‘rap’ video he did for ‘A Little Bit of Fry & Laurie’
This advert is beautiful. John Cleese compares a Compaq ‘portable’ computer from the 80s, with a fish. Spoiler: They both weight 22lbs, but that’s the only similarity. Either way that’s four times the weight of my MacBook Pro.
