This has been making the rounds, but I first saw it over at Topless Robot.  A Russian actor’s group called “Big Difference” (Bolshaya Raznitsa / Большая Разница) remade The Matrix as a Charlie Chaplin silent film.

The most recent SNL Digital Short was an excellent Twilight parody.  Along with their FOX News skit, Penelope returned! and Taylor Swift’s security-aided (to keep Kanye out) musical (lalala) monologue, it was actually a decent SNL last night.

I find Jon Stewart’s impression of Glen Beck pretty great, unnerving for sure, but still great. Gotta love those inane FOX news chalkboard moments.

I’m sure there’s a Christian Bale joke here somewhere, but honestly the premise here is so simple: a man dresses like a bat and then scares the beejesus out of people.  Sometimes it’s the bizarre-o little things in life.  [via]

Some enterprising It’s Always Sunny fan took every Charlie Kelly dance sequence from Seasons 1-5 and made this highly enjoyable supercut.

If only this report were available when I was a child. *Sigh*

Subtle Sexuality is a girl group made up of “the beautiful and mysterious” Kelly Kapoor and “the pretty” Erin Hannon, two employees of a certain paper company in Scranton, Penn.

Their first song/video is the Auto-Tune–heavy dance jam “Male Prima Donna,” featuring guest appearances by ‘Nard Dog and Mr. Understood.

So this happened once upon a time.  Ah, the 80s.

Pantless Knights created this well-done spoof of Bon Jovi and Twilight.  I non-ironically enjoy the Slippery When Wet era of Bon Jovi, but I don’t so much like Twilight on any level — astonishing considering how much of a vampire-nerd I am.  [via]

Hey New Jersey! It’s time to reclaim the word and turn a negative into a positive.

This episode of A&E’s “Hoarders” takes a look inside the life of a man unable to part with his digital belongings, featuring Upright Citizens Brigade members Nate Dern, Brett White and Michael Martin.

Sahar Sashar put together this short video with Jason Jones and Tim Greenberg of The Daily Show about their trip to Iran.  It’s no secret that Jason Jones is going to be the next big breakout star from Jon Stewart’s cabal.

CollegeHumor has created a parody of the intro that is shown before Pixar films.  I no longer support the death penalty.

Happy Halloween!: “Directors Adam Green (Hatchet, Frozen), Paul Solet (Grace) and ArieScope Pictures (more here) have just released their own love letter to the Halloween season called Jack Chop, a blood-soaked satire of the now infamous Slap Chop infomercial. Written by Green, Solet and a bunch of other weirdos (and starring Solet as the enthusiastic pitch man who can’t catch a break) you’re going to want to do yourself a favor and check out the full video below. It’s horrifying and hilarious, you freaks are gonna love it. Language and violence alert, mayhaps NSFW.”

The funny men stopped by Fallon to chat and have Eric Idle perform their classic Life of Brian tune “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” backed by The Roots. If you were ever wondering about ?uestlove’s whistling ability, this should make it obvious he is quite the whistler.

This would be how not to do it.

And just in case you think it might not be the real Tracy Morgan, but rather his publicist or some kid he hired off the street, he just tweeted this: “my dickhead is shaped liked a darth vadar helmet. my dick is so fat it looks like r2d2.”

Obviously, I can’t believe this hasn’t been done before.  I also can’t believe we’ve never gotten a Chris Hanson/Predator movie mashup yet.  The internet must be broken.

Update: Close but not quite what I was hoping for.

Yup, this photoshop job nicely sums up America and our sadsack relationship with our politicians.  Unfortunately, we just keep pretending that this isn’t the case.

Andy Samberg fights the system by throwing shit on the ground in the latest SNL Digital Short, guest starring “Hollywood phonies” Ryan Reynolds and Elijah Wood.  It’s, um, amusing.  Certainly not The Lonely Island crew’s best effort.

I have to agree with the Cynical One here, but, “everytime there’s a new “Hitler is Informed” meme, I think that it will finally jump the shark. But it just hasn’t gotten old for me yet.”  No, no it hasn’t.  This one is particularly well done.

We’re pumped about his new play with fellow Monty Python-ers, but just for good measure Eric Idle takes a moment to respond to a few comments left by some doltish YouTube users on The Monty Python Channel. [via]

“The irrepressible Palin, the ebullient Jones, the mercurial Gilliam, the aloof Cleese, the implacable Doctor Chapman puffing placidly on his pipe: this was a gang to be in all right. And it was a gang, not just a Gang Show, and when we were in angry mood storming around Television Centre looking for a confrontation with management, fully grown BBC executives would hide.”

Not The Messiah, (He’s a Very Naughty Boy) opens at the Royal Albert Hall on October 23 and features the full cast of Monty Python.  Idle also has some other great tidbits about his days with Monty Python (during their prime, so to speak).

In case you missed it because you fell asleep while watching the season two premiere of Castle. Not admitting that happened to me, of course, but obviously it’s been known to happen. Is it hot in here? It feels really hot. I’m just going. To. Step. Aside.

It’s been a long, eventful three weeks since Jon Stewart last graced us with his ascerbic wit.  Joe Wilson’s outburst and Glenn Beck’s Million (not so much) Unbalanced Angry White Man March were all the more troubling without him. [via]

A remix of the “Bacon is good for me” kid. It’s hysterical. I love this fat little misogynistic bacon loving guy.  That is all, have a nice day.

Didn’t take long after yet another crazy teabagger march on Washington (Saturday for those scratching their heads) for someone to finally highlight just how crazy they are.  Well, it mostly focuses on their crazy signs. But that’s cool, it’s still a good laugh.  Except, it’s kind of sad and frightening!  You can’t rationalize with these people.  Better off just telling them that Obama really is coming to eat their babies, murder their grandparents, tax them out of their homes, steal their guns, give the keys to The White House to Osama, because somehow that seems more probable.

Now that we got the serious out of the way. Why the hell not?  The Onion has a pretty hilarious look at Americans not masturbating in memory of 9/11.

Like this needs an explanation or an introduction.

Synergy and genius at its finest.

He can’t live with it, can’t live without it. But honestly, we all know where he’s coming from; I often hulk out like this on the weekends before I’ve had coffee.

What would we do without the unintentional reality show comedy tour?

And then the fun begins.  You wonder why people don’t trust the news anymore?  Start right here.  It’s bad enough that news agencies have adopted the fair and balanced approach as opposed to the truthful and accurate one, but it’s really bad when local news programs give up all together and make a mockery of themselves.  [via]

Here’s the mascot’s, Berlino, insidious plan to destroy 400m hurdle champ Melanie Walker at the 2009 World Championships. [via]

Face it.  Larry David is funnier than you.  He takes the simple act of opening a hard plastic security package and makes it worth a chuckle or two.  New season begins on September 20.
