Stephen Lynch - For The Ladies (Sick but hilarious)
Hooray! My first submission!
I'm trying to learn guitar so I can serenade my lady with this song... Enjoy!
Airbus A300-600ST Beluga - It's amazing it can take off
Quite a testament to modern engineering. Would've been cool to see it next to a regular 747 to get an idea of the scale of the thing.
Dispatches - 'Is torture a good idea?' (49.03)
If you ask me, Americans should be tortured for their crimes against spelling. It would be great if Jack Bauer could be the one to do it, too...
To answer your question bamdrew, both are said here. However, I'm not sure if 'disoriented' is a genuine English word: I've a feeling it's one of those damned Yankee spy-words which has snuck back across the Atlantic to befoul our great mother tongue.
Barbarella Opener - Jane Fonda taking off her space suit
I quoted the translation.
This is the episode I'm referring to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brother,_Can_You_Spare_Two_Dimes%3F
Barbarella Opener - Jane Fonda taking off her space suit
To quote Maggie Simpson: "Oh. It appears I have soiled myself."
Jackie Chan Drunken Boxing
This is from Drunken Master 2, Choggie. The original version of the movie suggested pretty plainly that Chan (as Wong Fei Hung in this film) got brain damage from the industrial alcohol he drinks. Not so surprisingly, this was cut from the US version...
Pierre Berton Show: Bruce Lee (1971) (24:35)
I've seen loads of clips from this video, but I don't think I've ever seen the whole thing before. Thanks, dotdude!
Blue Whale (from The Blue Planet documentary)
I think I remember waking up next to her after a particularly heavy night on the town a couple years back...
Blackadder - How WWI started
I love this show, but it's weird that I'm not a great fan of anything else I've seen by Ben Elton or Richard Curtis. Probably it's thanks to the amazing talent in the cast of this show.
Speaking of which, it's also weird seeing Hugh Laurie in this since seeing him playing House. Does... not... compute.
Burning a candle at both ends
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends--
It gives a lovely light!

Ju jutsu
I thought it was a pretty good clip. My one reservation with Jujutsu (wikipedia tells me this is the current standard spelling) is that they *always* train wearing the Gi. Training with one is fine, until you're fighting someone who is shirtless, when suddenly your options are drastically reduced.
tony jaa is a god
Tony Jaa would be the first guy to say that what he does in the movies isn't 'real' Muay Thai - I've seen a couple of interviews with him where he's pointed it out. Some of it is a reasonably fair representation, but the acrobatics and the jumping kicks are much more akin to wushu, capoeira, free running, or tricking.
The guy has an undeniable talent, and I really loved Ong Bak. The Protector (aka. Ong Bak 2) had some great fights, particularly the 5-6min one-shot scene that southblvd mentioned. The problem with The Protector was that it was seriously malnourished on plot - even by the (not high) standards of martial arts movies.
Once Upon a Time in the West. Final Showdown
A truly classic movie.
I think it would be worth putting a spoiler warning on the tags/title. Not everyone will have seen this film already, and the whole harmonica thing is undeniably a spoiler...
How to get knocked out before the bell
I'm not sure who I have the most disdain for right now: the outstandingly insecure Herring, or the dimwitted Nakao. If you're gonna try to rile the other guy up as much as you can, whilst standing a few inches away from him, be aware that he may try to sucker-punch you!
Ass Pennies
The wrongness of this is stupendous. Upvote!
