Telebugs - Fair Play
 |
If this isn’t a convincing argument in favor of the Butlerian Jihad, I don’t know what is. |
Solla Solla Enna Perumai
 |
Wow. Those are some zany Bollywood antics going on right there. He really makes those gold lamé boots work for him. |
DJ Ted Stevens - A Series of Tubes
 |
Paul Holcomb from The Bold Headed Broadcast mixed this techno version of Ted Stevens’ now infamous “Series Of Tubes” speech and I made a video out of it. If you like it, please digg this! |
Tony Clifton - The Music Medley
 |
The great Tony Clifton serenades the Muppets on a 1982 television special entitled “The Fantastic Miss Piggy Show”. |
The Magic Touch
 |
Some groovy anime/video game styled characters do their thing and get on down 16-bit style, in this spiffy little animated short. |
Fantastic Planet
 |
A classic surreal French animated film, but rescored with a new soundtrack of experimental music chosen by everyone.doesntexist.com. |
Jihad Jerry - Army Girls Gone Wild
 |
Jihad Jerry is waging a holy war on stupidity that he claims to be “as thankless and futile as the war on drugs”. Good luck with that. |
Action Cats
 |
Collect all 22 Action Cats. Including: Skela-Kitty, Laser Gal, Cat-Atomic, Spider-Cat, and all the rest. Then, you’ll say… Action Cats are awesome! |
Balance
 |
Christoph and Wolfgang Lauenstein are twin brothers from Germany who have produced some remarkable stop motion animation. |
Ali Baba Bunny
 |
One of my favorite Bugs Bunny cartoons of all time because Daffy Duck totally upstages that complete ham of a hare. |
Titler
 |
So filthy, so offensive, so..well, just plain outrageously over the top and yet I can’t stop laughing at this. Nice dress. |
The Last Man on Earth
 |
Vincent Price battles killer mutant vampire zomies in a cheapo post-apocalyptic tale that inspired many modern day zombie flicks. |
Do It Yourself Cartoon Kit
 |
This predates Terry Gilliam’s work on Monty Python by about a good eight years. |
Chariots of the Gods
 |
I had an extremely devout Christian teacher in high school once tell me that there was proof in the Old Testament that aliens had visited us. |
The Adventures of Ray Bradbury
 |
By the pricking of my thumb, some zany Ray Bradbury antics this way come . Tommy Westphall reference ftw. |
Flatlife
 |
“The Bible tells us to love our neighbors, and also to love our enemies; probably because they are generally the same people.” - G.K. Chesterton. |
A Day at the Zoo
 |
Newsreel parodies such as this early one by Tex Avery are usually pretty mediocre fare, however I can vividly remember being glued to the set whenever they ran on TV. |
De La Soul Feat. Double - I Gotta Believe
 |
Anything and everything related to Parappa is cool by me. Sorry if you think that is goofy, but then you are entirely missing the point. |
Grass
 |
According to this IMDB entry, the Ontario Censor Board thought 60’s footage of lab monkeys being forced to smoke weed should have been taken out because they saw it as cruelty to animals. What a bunch of dopes. |
Lot in Sodom
 |
Even though this B&W silent film is over seventy years old, I have to admit that it is more visually intriguing than most of the films produced today. |
Boink!
 |
Is the moral of this story something along the lines of “Even if you are a penguin, you shouldn’t have a kid because they will just annoy the hell out of you”? |
Lookwell
 |
Adam West in an unsuccessful pilot that was written and produced by Conan O’Brien way back in 1991. What is there not to like about that smart and zany combination? |
Fatboy Slim - Right Here Right Now
 |
Norman Cook provides us with an always funky blast from the past in more ways than one. Evolve or get off the dance floor. |
Psychedelic Cartoon Noir
 |
Tripped out pandas, fish headed guys, handgun violence, freaky musical numbers…wow, this one has it all. The fine people at Transistor Studios put out some rad stuff. |
Philip K. Dick - Sci Fi Genius
 |
PKD is an author who makes you realize very little has changed in human society over the past few decades. |
Destination Earth
 |
Martians want to steal our oil and that, my friends, is why we must not cut back on funding for a manned expedition to the red planet. |
Spin
 |
Behind the scenes and off the record doesn’t always mean that nobody will ever see it. Spying on politicians is quite a zesty voyeuristic delight. |
Supaidâ-Man
 |
This show is funny enough by itself, and yet the fansubs during the theme song somehow manage to just push it gloriously over the top. |
Freaks
 |
“Gooble gobble, gooble gobble, we accept her, we accept her, one of us, one of us!” This film is one big creepy treasure. |
Patriotic Popeye
 |
This cartoon is pretty appropriate for the holiday, but I always hated the Popeye shorts that featued his nephews. They were a total rip-off of Huey, Dewey and Louie. |
The Animatrix - Program
 |
The Animatrix is so much better than the actual thing and this segment by Yoshiaki Kawajiri is pretty damn keen if you ask me. |
