Starbarians, Ho!

Harry Partridge is quickly becoming one of my favorite Internet sensations, with his hilarious, superbly-animated cartoons. His latest video, The Starbarians, shows that he’s not just a good song-writer, he can also tell a funny adventure story about the greatest heroes in the galaxy – who also like boobs. But then who doesn’t like boobs?

Watch and enjoy!

Dual-Wielding Pinkie Pies

Some insanely awesome soul has combined two of my favorite things: Skyrim and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Computer-savvy people are able to modify parts of the Skyrim game, from character skins to sounds to whatever else. And this someone, Gamerboy, has made their character look like Pinkie Pie (the insaniest of all the ponies), an dthen just runs around killing people. But the best part: they also modified the swords and arrows to also look like Pinkie Pie! So this is like some awesomely-themed murderous super-villain!

Enjoy!

Internet Apocalypse

With an old favourite, the Internet band known as the Gag Quartet gathers the memes in an epic explodageddon of sheer brilliance.

This video was created in 2011, a time that will henceforth be known as the year the Internet collectively declared itself to be a sovereign state of Awesome. Enjoy.

Polymorphic Autonomous Compound MANipulator

Or ‘Pac-Man’ for short.

I swear, there must be a farm somewhere that grows small groups of nerds who do nothing but make funny and geeky Internet videos all day. They usually include several dorky looking guys, and at least one hot chick. Yesterday we had live action Hey Arnold! and Doug, today we have a live action Pac-Man. And it’s awesome! The graphics of Pac-Man and the Ghosts are absolutely amazing. If this is the kind of work that amateur computer graphic artists are doing these days, then the future will be very cool indeed.

This movie is brought to us by the people at Machinima.

For the Love of Nicktoons

As I’ve often said on this blog, the Internet is full of wondrous and exciting things. All those creative types out there with big ideas and great senses of humor used to have to hope they were discovered to be heard. Now there is Youtube. Like this group called Dr. Cool Sex, who have made live-action trailers for modern day takes on famous Nicktoons.

First: Hey Arnold!

And then Doug.

I mean, come on, these are just awesome. They must have been a blast to make.
