Live action ‘Goldeneye’ N64 enactment (slight return)

A while back, this blog featured a clip of some Americans amusingly recreating Nintendo 64’s classic Goldeneye video game in a live action spoof. This is clearly a thing, as it wasn’t the only one by a long stretch, so here’s some more of the same… almost. Armed only with some medium-quality editing software, access … >

The Hero Factory robots have a day off

In this stressful modern age, everyone needs to take some time away from their jobs to unwind – even futuristic robots made from Lego that bare absolutely no resemblance whatsoever to any metamorphic automatons in another line of toys. Yet there doesn’t seem to be much of what David Cameron might woefully describe as ‘chillaxing’ … >

‘Are you off your tits? Stale bread is stale bread.’

The place is the planet New Texas. The year is 2249 or thereabouts. And the Galactical Marshall keeping the peace is Bravestarr, a Native American who calls on (in a very loud voice) the assistance of spirit animals to see great distances, run quickly and do all sorts of things that animals do better than … >

‘I find a semi in Kent…’

It’s very easy to get a cheap laugh out of an episode of Homes Under The Hammer re-edited to make it seem like a smut-filled barrel of pornuendo. A bit too easy, some might say, but that’s no reason not to look at Martin Roberts and Lucy Alexander prowling around houses, talking dirty.

‘What the hell…?’

Come the zombie apocalypse, there won’t be much time for pranks. Rio Ferdinand certainly won’t be spending his leisure time making any more windup television shows – not even Rio’s Judgement Day Jollies or Rio’s Armageddon Arse-Abouts or Rio’s Mankind, Your Time Is Up! or (that’s enough Rio Ferdinand TV shows – Ed) – and … >

‘In my MIND and in my CAR…’

A double-helping of Tom Baker-flavoured electro-pop excitement in a single YouTube video. First up, the instrumental version of the Human League’s b-side tribute to the toothy Time Lord from 1981. That’s all very well, of course, but the main part (and if you want to skip past Phil Oakey’s synthery to get to it immediately, … >

‘Need a lift?’

Fans of the original Back to the Future movies hanker for a fourth film like Biff Tannen craves something stronger than light beer. A corner of their hearts will always resemble the Cafe ‘80s in BTTF2 – ‘where it’s always morning in America, even in the afternoon’ – and nothing would delight them more than … >
