Currently superimposing Diplo into all PS2 games

*Chortles* This is a treat! You know those Tawainese Next Media Animation folks responsible for those less-than-Pixar computer animations of various celebrity drama? Well they've made it big this time with their animation for Lil Jon's "U Don't Like Me" music video. And guess what? It features playable versions of Lil Jon and Diplo in five versus trials, including an under the sea battle with a harpoon. How awesome is that? Plus they've made it really easy for me to start fantisizing about Diplo showing up in Deadly Premonition as Agent York's long lost sidekick. That would be really great.

Put your happy face on for "Gluko & Lennon"

Gluko & Lennon ENG from Gluko & Lennon on Vimeo.

I'll admit, the first thing that came to mind after watching "Gluko & Lennon" was Pendalton Ward's Adventure Time, but I mean hey, that is a very great thing! We need more of that kind of light-hearted funny stuff. This colorful and fun animation was created L'Orange Gutan and is filled with some good *laffs*. Certainly brightened up my day, so enjoy!

STUFF & THINGS

 

STUFF & THINGS. from Jack Cunningham on Vimeo.

For you readers, an enchanting animated short by Jack Cunningham called STUFF & THINGS that I've had the good intention of posting for a while. The reel's title does a fine job explaining what you'll see in the video, a quick sequence of colorful, sometimes pixelated things and stuff. So enjoy!

P.S. Helloooo Monday. How were your weekends? I went adventuring across the wild hills of Noe Valley, saw Inception (not bad), Six Feet Under (interesting), and Breaking Bad (also interesting). What did you do?

Paper Link from Zelda on Paper isn't very nice

 

"Zelda on Paper" by Eric Power is a series of short paper animations that demonstrate what a butt Link can be sometimes. Of course, destroying that innocent townsperson's pottery and slashing their decorative shrubbery was all your idea in the first place, but that's besides the point. Watch as a cocked headed paper Link harasses chickens, steals rupees and the like, and stick around for a bonus Metroid animation towards the end. If your diggin' this paper animation vibe, then you may also want to check out Power's more recent "Portable Gaming and Me" video.

Look at this guy! Super Mario Beatboxer

Via Buzzfeed

Watching the video, it's hard to believe that he's actually making all those sounds at once, but he is! Japanese beatboxer Hikakin beats and boxes through those ever so familiar Super Mario Bros. tunes with his own remix. This performance is like Mario Twins in 3D (since 3D is synonymous for "better" and "cooler-sounding-than-HD" these days).

Speaking of which, you all remember Mario Twins by Group X? It's called Mario Twins, they look the same!  How in the hell?
