Youtube fun!

[diamondlil]

I thought that I might post this fun video featuring many of our favourite Regency heroes from mini-series and movies!


Regency Men (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aHsKHllD2qU)

[Leyland]

I still love this - and no, Darcy hasn't a thing to do with it! ;) It's a Blackadder thing of course.

[Madeleine]

Where's Colin Firth though!!!!

[Vanessa]

I'm not sure if I know what you mean, Madeleine, but Colin Firth is playing Shakespeare in the clip, the one who Rowan Atkinson biffs on the nose. Or am I missing something here?:confused:

[diamondlil]

Where's Colin Firth though!!!!


In which video?

He's in the first one a couple of times.

Sorry I've only just found this message, couldn't remember which thread this was in!:o

I meant in the Regency heroes video, haven't seen the Shakespeare one yet but I shall go and watch it now!;)

I've just watched the Blackadder clip...brilliant, hadn't seen that before. I have to admit I'm with Edmund, there were many times at school when I think we could all have thumped Shakespeare:rolleyes:

[Leyland]

I love this! ... and the Immigrant Song just won't get out of my head now. :D.

Thanks Leyland..... now it's playing in my head...but I like it.....

I love the Lego clips! We found some the other day for Nathan on knights! He loved them!

A fun one to search is the Lego Summer Nights.....its brilliant! Not HF'ie at all but good!

[Misfit]

Great (I think) just finding this thread. More time suck. One (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WofFb_eOxxA) I remember from the old board and a particular favorite, Gizmo Flushes. I am very very glad my cat doesn't have that problem.

Love the Morris Dancing Volgadon!

Most of you have probably seen this one, but I get it emailed to me about once a month! The 'llama song (http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/llama)' -- talk about a tune stuck in your head!

[Leyland]

Wish I'd been to more wedding receptions like that! :) A bit long but really fun to watch.

http://www.snotr.com/video/1299

[SonjaMarie]

OMG this is hilarious http://www.spike.com/video/pg-porn-pg-porn/3041858

It's not porn, it's PG Porn (no actual sex).

lol how funny

My best friend has the Llama song as her general ringtone on her phone. LOL

And SM... the best part of that video was when he put the nail gun in the woman's hand. LOL :D

[SonjaMarie]

I've seen Nathan Fillion in other roles and I know he's a good actor so watching him pretend to be really bad porn star was hilarious! And yes the end was a bit of surprise but very funny!

SM

[nona]

I loved his role in the movie Slither, he has got to be the funniest and most down to earth actor.

[Rowan]

I saw this on a blog I read and thought any members owned by cats would appreciate this...

Okay this wasn't Youtube's but I still think it's funny...

she's so sweet, I love the way he holds her paw.:)

[diamondlil]

Today it has emerged that this occurred during some backburning the week before the major fires that are still burning now. Doesn't change the sweetness of the story, but does change the setting a little.

Yes. T-Mobile did the same thing in January in the UK at Liverpool Street Station

Great stuff!

[Carine]

somebody sent me this today -- a dance school confuses Belgian commuters!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EYAUazLI9k

Yes well done that is. It's because like the BBC did once a show called "How do you solve a problem like Maria ?" looking for a new "Maria" for the musical, they are now doing the same here in Belgium. That is some kind of advert for it.

While we're onto things YouTube and Star-Trekky, check out William Shatner's immortal rendition of Rocket Man.
It's totally Shat-tastic :D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN3MGN899yE

[diamondlil]

That is totally awesome! I know a few people who will appreciate that!

And totally cutting edge special effects as well!

[Ludmilla]

I have my children to blame for this one. I took them to see the Hannah Montana movie and we were looking at videos. Taylor Swift sings a song in the movie that we wanted to look up, which led to her song Love Story (not in the movie). Oh. My.... I love period costume, and this is period costume porn...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlbB7qt6v_0

[diamondlil]

I do like that song, and the video.

Thank You Annis....So beautiful..........

[chuck]

Surfing YouTube last night and watched a few clips of "Faulty Towers"....what a hoot....great Brit TV.... Cleese et all and the terrific writing....today's USA sitcoms don't even come close....not a "Seinfeld/Office" fan....only my opinion.....

[Vanessa]

Oh, I loved Fawlty Towers! It was hilarious. John Cleese is brilliant. I think there were only 12 or 13 of them made, but I can watch them over and over again.

[Ludmilla]

Must admit, this one made me giggle. The Onion has a spoof review (http://www.theonion.com/content/video/trekkies_bash_new_star_trek_film) of trekkie fan feedback of the new Star Trek movie.

[greenery]

If you have a Netflix subscription, you can watch all kinds of movies and television shows at netflix.com without commercials. The list includes the entire Fawlty Towers library.

It's taking some real stern talking to myself to stay away when I should be working.

[SarahWoodbury]

Probably it's all the chocolate I've eaten tonight, but I saw this youtube thread and, combined with the dreadlocks discussion on another page, thought I'd post this . . . it's ME, with my husband, the dreadlocked guy, singing Indigo Girls.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsFyQrA6V7c

[greenery]

Sarah -- I have to say, I'm impressed. The two of you are having such fun together, and that perfect song. This little video reminds me of that movie with the songwriter who meets the musician from Eastern Europe. I'll bet you know what I mean.

[SarahWoodbury]

Thanks! You mean the movie, "Once", I think. My husband and I checked it out from the library a couple of months ago. My husband comes from a really musical family (his mother has an operatic soprano voice) so in that company, most of the time I feel like I'm faking it, but we did have fun :)

[Leo62]

Youtube is such a potent timesucker.

Did anyone see the recreation of this on the Today Show last week? It's quite unique and I think they did a great job making a special day so memorable. This is the video of the original wedding entrance:

I've watched this about five times in the last hour and am still laughing hard every time. Sheep Pong! Just brilliant.

Great, Leyland! I've seen these guys before, but that's a new one. Their dogs must be incredibly well trained.

[Ken]

Great, Leyland! I've seen these guys before, but that's a new one. Their dogs must be incredibly well trained.

It's not the dogs. Each sheep receives two weeks of individual instruction, before being allowed to enter into the choreography school. There, they learn to synchronise their movements with those of other sheep and, using their satnavs and their natural talent, they instinctively know where to position themselves for the next photo shoot.

There is no more intelligent sheep than a Welsh sheep!!

p.s. They taste good too!!

[Leyland]

Thanks for the enlightening behind-the-scenes commentary, Ken. There's just so much more to this production than I initially imagined. Perhaps the sheep should be allowed to try out for synchronized swimming gigs? Maybe not, do the satnav's float?

So glad they're tasty, too!

Here's an interesting clip (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Je90XRRrruM&safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1)posted by librarians criticizing HarperCollins' new policy restricting ebook titles to 26 checkouts after March 7th. My county's library doesn't offer ebooks (and I've been eagerly awaiting). New policies like this will kill digital library initiatives.

[fljustice]

Thanks for the link, Ludmilla. I think they really made their point!

[MLE]

Thanks for posting that, Ludmilla. Libraries and ebooks are something I haven't thought about much, but with the sudden jump in ebook consumption, I guess I should be.

[LoveHistory]

That's unfair to the libraries. Shame on Harper Collins!
