Fik-Shun - Frontrow - World of Dance Las Vegas 2014

Virgin America Safety Video

bareboards2 says...

So much fun to see alums from So You Think You Can Dance included -- Cyrus, Marco, Phillip Chbeeb and choreographer Christopher Scott. Also, the main "robot" fellow has danced as the show as part of the League of Extraordinary Dancers.

Yippee! Dancers getting work and recognition as individuals!

Second move, right out of the Parody! Magnet undies -- I'm not watching the dance, I'm thinking magnet undies!

I gotta get that parody out of my head before So You Think You Can Dance starts...

oritteropo said:

Oh no! That parody is brutal! I don't think I'll be able to watch serious contemporary dance ever again without thinking of it!!!

This one for instance is a classic example:

I think the happy dance only needed a slightly different crowd logged in today to sift... I'll send it to beggar's canyon if/when it goes to my pqueue

The things one learns watching So You Think You Can Dance....

Post it, baby!

Lyrical Tutting. Two words probably never put together before....

Let me know when you post it, I'll vote for it!

oritteropo said:

Well how about that, you learn something every day, and thanks I might've heard it mentioned in song lyrics, but never knew what it meant in that context.

He just projects so much happiness, I'm actually starting to second-guess myself and consider posting it.

Best/Worst Entertainment of 2012 Thread (Cinema Talk Post)

bareboards2 says...

I only have a TV for one reason.... So You Think You Can Dance. Eliana Girard won this year -- probably the best dancer they have ever had.

I can't put my finger on anything else -- my passions are big passions, and push all else from my head. I know I have gobbled up some books, and laughed and cried at the movies... but I can't remember any titles at present.

Except the documentaries Trash Dance and Chasing Ice. Yep.

Stop & Frisk: Ever been frisked by the cops? Make it fun!

No dis, just the facts, ma'am >> ^bareboards2:

@RhesusMonk, don't you go dissing So You Think You Can Dance!
Great dancing, supportive environment, learning, personal growth, commitment to their craft. That show is the best thing in reality television.
Glee? Dancing with the Stars? Dis away! (I am assuming your comment is a dis, since you mentioned Glee in the same breath...)

Dancing with Crutches (Warning: Extreme awesomeness)

messenger says...

I was gonna make a comment along the lines of, "This guy deserves a stage, not just a dance studio." Looks like others agree. Awesome!>> ^spoco2:

I was going to say "Expect to see this guy on So you think you can dance"... but then looked him up.
He's a bit past that.
He's in Cirque du Soleil... so I think he's 'made it' already

Daddy's Evil Laugh Scares Baby

bareboards2 says...

I'm sorry you lost your papa so early. That is fucked up, too.

I think it is great that it never occurred to you that someone would set out to make their child cry. That speaks well of your parents and your happy childhood.

My feelings weren't hurt by this video -- sorry if I gave that impression. My father was ignorant and unthinking. He would never consciously hurt me -- nor is the guy with stretched lobes consciously hurting his child.

All I am trying to do is make conscious to unreflecting minds that you don't do this to a baby or a small child. It needs to be said. Not everyone needs to be told this. My dad needed to hear it. This guy needs to be told. Neither of them thought/think they are doing anything untoward -- this guy posted the vid on Youtube! Someone up above makes a comment about what a great face the baby makes. It needs to be said, clearly. So I am saying it.

My delivery may be overwrought. The message is simple.

I'm staring at a half empty bottle of wine left over from last night's weekly So You Think You Can Dance tv party. It is looking more tempting all the time...

There's a great vid of women failing rather spectacularly at motocross that is pretty amusing. Have you seen it yet? http://videosift.com/video/X-Games-17-Women-can-t-dunk-but-have-good-fundamentals

Is OK.. Like I said, I didn't mean to post this to hurt anybodys feelings. Maybe I am naive to think that nobody would make a baby cry on purpose. One thing that ticks me off here is people saying that the dad must be a mean because he has stretched earlobes. I do not like extreme body modifications like that myself, but having them doesn't make you a bad or mean person.
I know my parents didn't scare me as a kid, and my dad was the most wonderful person ever, and he died when I was 18. I had a happy childhood, my parents were great, and still I ended up being pretty much totally fucked up: I am insecure, I keep my distance, I am grumpy, scared of way too many things, and I get easily obsessed with things like VS, or WOW. And that's just the top of the iceberg! I am lucky to have found my DH NetRunner who puts up with my weirdness and loves me no matter what.
I do not know why I ended up this way. Maybe if I had been scared with a 'muhahaha' as a baby I would have grown up to be less afraid of silly things. Who knows. I think I was being kept too safe as a kid and the real life scared the crap out of me.
Every kid grows up different. I still think this dad didn't mean to make his kid cry. Unfortunaterly he did, but I am sure the kid will be OK. This dad is not going to torture his kid even if he has stretched lobes!
OK, probably time for another drink now.. I was not going to comment on this.. I just want to sift silly, mindless videos that make people happy. Most of the time.

Korean street kid wows Korea's Got Talent

carrot says...

So for the record, he apparently attended a performing arts high school, but "could not continue with any professional training because of his financial situation" (according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Choi_Sung-Bong). So he is by no means a street urchin who had never sung before.

There was also a bit of a controversy because he apparently stated that he had been trained to sing in high school but it was edited out for television audiences. This would not be the first such occurrence, as recently on So You Think You Can Dance the choreography performed by two of the performers was directly lifted from another group (called Les Twins), and nonetheless praised for its originality - apparently the duo did credit their source, but it was edited out to make them appear more impressive.

I also learned from this research that apparently Susan Boyle had recorded a CD for charity before her appearance, and Paul Potts had been an amateur operatic singer who had taken a masterclass with Pavarotti.

For the inevitable cries of "hater" out there - I do not think that this diminishes their talent or achievement, or how tough this kid's life has clearly been. But people do not just turn into semi-professional opera singers by practicing in their rooms...

Ben Crane's not boring... he grew up in a dance academy!
