mediaczar Just saw BouncE's show "Insane in the Brain" -- this short film was shown as part of the show. There was a lot of stage action that filled the slow middle section of this movie. All kicks off around 3:50 -- if you don't watch at least that long, you're not going to get this.

mediaczar This is comedy genius. Well -- perhaps post-modern comedy genius. The Hitler Downfall Parody meme becomes self-aware and self-referential. Do watch to the end... (more dawsonbros stuff)

mediaczar This is really quite sweet. But the relatively low view count (fewer than 60K in two months -- June 8th) despite the BBC's fairly serious media oomph demonstrates how hard it really is to promote these things.

mediaczar I never saw Borat. I suspect that that's the event (or lack of one) that finally proved that I was an adult. When I see it on DVD that will be the event that proves that I'm not an adult after all. But I think I'd rather see Bruno...

mediaczar I didn't know about Buffalax (the YouTube user) or Buffalaxing (the verb) but here's the first example of the art that I've seen. A definition?

This word comes from a genius on YouTube whose username is Buffalax." I'm now off to watch some of Buffalax's oeuvre.

mediaczar Jon Stewart may just have toppled the Twitter hype curve. But I reckon there's still enough momentum. I hadn't realized how much the US media had jumped on the Twitter bandwagon. Fascinating in a car crash kinda way.

mediaczar Because Kerry hadn't seen it. This is a very cleverly inter-cut video that puts Dan & Scroobius in front of the X Factor judges (and somehow avoids copyright infringment!)

mediaczar If I knew what were actually happening it wouldn't make me any happier than it does. This is clearly not supposed to be funny. And yet... [via Nathan Williams]

mediaczar I spent ten years working for Sony Consumer Electronics in one way or another, so I can quite happily say that this isn't true at all. But how much damage could this do to their brand, and how much could will they learn from it? [Via Anton Mannering]

mediaczar There's no real reason behind including this other than the fact that it made me laugh. [via Nathan Williams]

mediaczar You wouldn't think you could get 45 seconds of film, let alone 300K+ views simply from opening a cupboard door.
