It is a commonly known fact that gamers, in the heat of gaming battle, are some of the most angriest people on the planet. Even angrier than Glenn Beck with a new gear to grind—just take this warrior for example, shouting out his deafening battle cry to ward of potential enemies, screaming at full lung capacity because he forgot that it’s just a game. Just. A. Game.
There’s nothing like getting sentimental about the year that’s about to end, a few weeks before it does end. And that’s what this video is all about, and because it’s Google it’s driven by keyword searches of words that evoke the historical and cultural events that took place, from the death of Madiba to a little boy being Batman for the day.
While there were many reasons to celebrate women’s representation in the media this year—Hollywood hits with female protagonists slaying the box office, women in great TV roles that don’t stereotype or pigeonhole them—there were also lots to be disappointed at considering we’re living in the 21st century, and lots of it is coming from Fox News—it’s pretty depressing, so 2014, you must do better or viva la revolution.
There is nothing more Christmassy than The Batman, a common symbol of the festive season in all cultures across the globe—so what better way to get you in the mood for the season of good cheer and good will and general goodness to things and stuff and all that, then the Dark Knight turning up in some Christmas classics to spread his ill will.
Using no reverb effects or even a music studio, drummer Julien Audigier plays the same drum pattern in variety of different locations—a factory, a windfarm and many more—capturing the natural echoes and decay patterns from the various environments. The result is a wide variety of acoustics that you can hear throughout the video. Wonder what Pink Floyd’s epic track “Echoes” would sound like recorded like this?
Quite simply the best song of 2013 and 2014, and 2015—just the best song forever really, and it’s all about a pop star being a gay fish. After South Park’s last trouncing of Kanye, and him making reference to it in one of his songs with the line “Choke a South Park writer with a fishstick”, you have to wonder, in a salacious gossipy-type way, what he’ll make of the latest South Park insult. Let battle commence!
Elvis is not dead! No, instead he’s turned into a 16 year old Canadian who goes on radio shows and wows the shit out of everybody with his incredible rendition of Blue Christmas, and awesome quiff—it’s so incredible that you won’t be able to listen to it just once, or twice, but three times you’ll have to listen to it. Three whole times and even that might not be enough.
Most of us will never be able to go into space, not unless we kidnap Richard Branson and hijack one of his rockets, but you’ve probably seen Gravity so you’ve kinda been into space, right? Especially if you saw it in 3D, and now you can go back into the cosmos with this time-lapse created from images of earth seen from aboard the ISS. What with this, Gravity and 2001: A Space Odyssey you could pretty much call yourself an astronaut.
If you’re a dad, you will LOL, if you’re not, look at this as a kind of insight and warning as to what to expect when you have a kid and are forced to, you know, do stuff with them like take them to the park and let them play and entertain them and other sorts of activities that eat into your sitting-on-the-couch-and-drinking-beer time. The selfish a-holes.
The journey may be unexpected but there was every expectation that they’d stretch a slim novel into hours and hours of film so they could stretch the release over three years and cream the maximum amount of profit from it. But of course they will, they’re the movie industry—and if you’ve been forced to sit through any of them by a spouse or friend or child, take some satisfaction in watching Honest Trailers rip the film a newbie.
