Fan Fiction Dragon Ball Z
This video from College Humour has been floating around for awhile now, so it was only a matter of time before we posted it here. You will be amazed.
A few pressing questions about the Power Rangers, explained
Power Rangers RPM is the newest rendition of the franchise, now in its 20th year, and I haven’t been keeping up. In a recent episode, however, some interesting questions were explained.

My Childhood Recaptured in Stop Motion

My friends and I in college once made a stop motion video in the hallway. It was good, and I wish I still had a copy of it somewhere.
