Some Random Online Videos

The first random video I watched was called "Blogs in Plain English" and let me just say I wish someone could have auto-tuned this guys voice. Lets be real, who would listen to this, its boring and really kind of stupid, it should be called "Common Sense About Blogs". It states the obvious more than once and I thank the lord that it is just under three minutes because if it was not I would be in a straight jacket now. The one positive was that it clarified a little bit about blogs but was still really plain and I think it broke a record for how fast my mind started to wonder. Also for something made in 2007 I would expect better or cooler animation. However I must be weird or something because other people who watched this video about blogging seemed to enjoy it but still I would give it two thumbs...DOWN!
The second video I just watched was called "Back of The Mike" and for a something that was made in 1938 I am surprised and astonished about how interesting and creative people were back in the "old days". From the horse galloping sounds to the dishes, it really does sound realistic and really does make you appreciate the quality of this radio show. I think it is amazing what innovators people were in a time when digital media did not rule the world. I also thought it was at parts cheesy especially when the cars drives through the fire but we must remember it is 1938 not 2038. It seems that most people agree that it is a must see and brilliant work done. I would have to give it 4 stars for the great ideas and creativity.
"Zombies in Plain English" is another video I watched and let me say ha ha? Not so much hahaha but dumb dumb dumb. If you are a zombie lover then this stupid video is for you and if you live in your own little world where zombies do totally rock then rock on but if you are more of a realist then I would recommend you watch "Back of The Mike". Also this video was released in fall of 2007 which means that zombies have been old news. The point I am trying to make is that if it was something new then I would be for it but it is not so I am against it. People seem to like this clip about zombies and see it as funny but really, how is chopping your friends head off after he is infected by the bite of another zombie funny? its not its dumb. If you are like me and think this is somewhat of a dumb video I would advice you to play Call Of Duty World At War because you can actually keep killing zombies and it is quite addicting. This video was stupid and I give it a half star for attempting to be funny.
GTA anyone? No not Grand Theft Auto but "Great Tasting Americano" which is a stop motion kitty version of Grand Theft Auto. That may sound lame from the few details that I just gave you but actually is very funny and has some pretty cool stop motion ideas to it. A viewer of this short video can tell that Wash Me Productions is a huge fan of Grand Theft Auto by the way everything is the video is played out, from stealing a car and fighting the owner of the car and your health going down just like in the game is pretty good details. I also like the part when he refuels his health by stopping by a coffee shop which reminded me a bit of San Andreas. I could understand that if you are not a big fan of the Grand Theft Auto series then this video would be somewhat immature and dole but for the big fans like myself then this is a pretty cool stop motion version of the game that we love. I was just checking to make sure I was not the only person who thought this was a cool video and the first comment I read was "awesome" and another one was "Absolutely Amazing". With that being said I would have to give this stop motion video a two thumbs up and 5 stars.
Any kid in grade school dreams of the day when a blank happens. That blank is a "Food Fight". But the last video I watched was not talking about kids throwing there mashed potatoes at your enemy but a pretzel using his automatic bread gun to take out the hamburger and any other food that steps in his way. It sounds kind of dumb and it really is a mindless video. I would have to give the maker props though for how it took it into a different perspective than what anyone thinks of right away when food fights come to mind. The gore in this video is amazing from the hamburger bun getting blasted into 50,000,000 crumbs to the sushi looking so help less, it is any chefs nightmare to see all this food go to waste. Everyone who viewed this seemed to like it and I guess it is not so bad I would give it two and a half stars.
