Anyone who’s ever played one of Nintendo’s Mario games will have died once, twice, probably a thousand times while playing. In this slightly creepy video by YouTube channel Nukazooka they imagine what happens when Mario falls to his doom while jumping from platform to platform.
This video is so meta it’s a wonder it doesn’t rip a hole in space-time and suck us all into it.

It’s at once a little bit unsettling but also strangely hypnotic.
The theme song from Stranger Things was instantly iconic, even though it’s a pastiche of 80s synth soundtracks, as soon as you hear it you immediately are taken to the world of the Upside Down, Eleven, and the Demogorgon.

We live in uncertain times, this much is certain. Times when no one it seems—not politicians, not your neighbour, not even your know-it-all work colleague—knows what Britain leaving the European Union will actually mean. Meanwhile, across the pond in the US they’re potentially facing a future with Donald Trump as president. Bleak times, indeed.
YouTubers Auralnauts rework the story of Star Wars in a parody trailer where C-3PO is shifted front and center as the main protagonist and star. Re-editing footage from the prequels, original trilogy, even a cereal commercial, they reinvent the sci-fi saga into a 1980s sci-fi cheesefest.
The neon-hued world of TRON is one that would definitely suit being turned into a ride at a theme park—and that’s exactly what’s happened at the Shanghai Disneyland in the Tomorrowland section of the park.
