Awesome Montages

Every day in 2011, Madeline shot a little footage, then took about a second from each day and edited it all together. If this doesn’t make you want to get out and do more, we don’t know what will.

(Spoilers) The worlds of Walt and Jesse unravel through Kogonada’s perfectly edited remix of shots taken from the perspective of mostly inanimate objects. shovelcam and Roombacam, FTW!

A great compliment to Everything is a Remix. YouTuber StooTV spent 20 years gathering footage and 2 years editing for this comparison of Raiders of the Lost Ark and 30 other films.

2011 was a wallet-emptying year for gamers. Here’s a look at some of the year’s best. It has too much Uncharted 3 – missing out on others like Forza 4 and NBA 2K12 – but is still worth watching.

FPSRussia does what he does best, with a recap some of his favorite moments of wanton destruction of fake zombies, watermelons and blow-up dolls(?), all gift-wrapped in one pretty package.

Brian Carroll took some of the greatest top-down shots in movie history and assembled them into this dizzying montage. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs soundtrack doesn’t hurt either.

Conan O’Brien’s been back on TV for a year now. Here’s a montage of some of the episodes from the first season of Conan. We give it a solid B, but only because bearded Conan isn’t represented.

Good artists copy, great artists steal. We learn that yet again in this examination of the Wachowski’s 1999 classic The Matrix, which clearly found plenty of inspiration in many earlier films.

We’ve always thought Toby on The Office was a little creepy, and now we know why. Kudos to YouTuber MrBrykil for this bit of creative editing. We’d like to suggest the title Ginger Snaps, though.

YouTuber honsco offers up another collection of characters actually mentioning the title of the movie they’re in. Some of them were already in this other montage, but we doubt you’d care.

We like the soundtrack and clips in this movie montage; a myriad of shots have been strung together where the camera is following someone who is walking or running. (Thanks Brian!)

(NSFW: Language, Gore, Spoilers) Previously, on Final Destination: A ton of people died. Screened does us all a huge solid, collecting all of the death scenes from the first four movies.

(NSFW: Language) Oliver Noble compiled all of Seagal’s bone-breaking scenes for our pleasure. You may be asking, why not Chuck Norris? Because Chuck’s compilation would be infinite.

The NY Times put together this musical montage as a tribute to the many talented recording artists we lost in 2010. You may not recognize every name or face, but most of the music will jog your memory.

It wasn’t all misery in 2010. Turns out lots of great things happened (on YouTube), and N0bodyyy decided to follow up his Fail Compilation with some of the more successful feats from the past year.
