The entire original Star Wars Trilogy told in 2min...

Uh, after watching this, I realized that I don't think I've seen all the Star Wars movies. How is this possible?!

Sketchy YouTubery: Changing Title & Tags on Old Videos (Nick Pitera, Lin Yu Chun)

Don't get me wrong, I like Nick Pitera's covers -- I first ran across his video entry in a Disney contest for people singing A Whole New World (he sings both parts).

But I still think it's kind of sketch to change the title and tags of a video that's almost two years old to take advantage of the media buzz surrounding Lin Yu Chun, the Taiwanese singing sensation, and his performance of I Will Always Love You (by Dolly Parton, probably most well known as sung by Whitney Houston). If you haven't seen Lin Yu Chun on Taiwan's "Avenue to Stardom," where have you been the last week? Quick, watch it!
 
 
PS My favorite bit from the AP article on Lin Yu Chun?

"Being fat draws a lot of mockery in our society," he said.

To cope with the pain of his exclusion, he locked himself in his room and sang along with the songs of Celine Dion and Mariah Carey .

Lin Yu Chun, we're the same person! 

Update: On the Ellen Show!

Having trouble getting dates? Why not pimp your profile?

This is a funny (music) video about online profiles and online dating on a gay site popular in Germany (and Europe) called GayRomeo. It really applies to any dating site, though!

More from the video description:
"Here are some handy hints from Holger Edmaier for creating a profile that will get you results. A satirical take on modern gay life that anyone with a profile will appreciate. Guaranteed!

The original German version is available too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keBc4SpXHhQ "

So freaking amazing. EPIC! "Neutra Face : An Ode On A Typeface (A Bearded Poker Face Parody)"

Some selected lyrics:

oh,oh,oh,oh, ohhhh, ohh-oh-e-ohh-oh-oh
I'll mock it up, show you what I got

You'll read my,
You'll read my,
You can read my Neutra Face
(Even if it's bold italic)

Another Katy Perry Parody: I Kissed A Boy by Boy Interrupted

the drag king one was edgier and more entertaining, but this guy makes up for some of it with sheer enthusiasm.

Awesome: Drag Kings singing "I Kissed a Boy" (nsfw)

Why hadn't someone done this before now? I love the subversion of pop culture!
