Awesome Edits

Between traffic, pollution, and the cost of owning a car, riding a bike is often a better way to get around. Oscar Boyson and Erin DeWitt created this lighthearted short using scenes from movies to dissuade us from driving cars, and instead to get out and start pedaling.

You know a TV series is memorable when you can extract tiny sound bites from every episode, and get a laugh out of almost every one. Editor Estelle Grignon compiled this laugh-packed reel which features a just about a second from each of the NBC comedy’s 201 episodes.

While busy working on their upcoming Doctor Who Honest Trailer, Screen Junkies took a little time out to make a clip which envisions evil Daleks assimilating other iconic robots from TV and movies. The Johnny 5 bit is the best. Unstable!!! Unstable!!!

It’s a simply matter of physics – if you drop a rock from up high, it will fall – eventually crashing to the ground. In this fun edit from Nerdist, actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson does exactly that, as realized through footage from a number of his movies.

YouTube is chockful of videos claiming to be supremely satisfying. But if you’ve had more satisfaction than you can handle, Luksan Wunder’s clip should cure you of that good feeling, and just simply leave you hanging in the worst possible ways.

Editor TheGaroStudios pays tribute to the Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy, condensing Bat’s origin story, his darkly-heroic rise, and his conflicts with the Joker and Bane into a impactful 3-minute short film.

(PG-13) Film editor Antonio Maria Da Silva of AMDSFILMS presents his latest masterpiece, a single film that combines scenes from classic horrors, thrillers, and other films envisioning all the creepy stories are flowing forth from the twisted mind of The Shining’s Jack Torrance.

(Gore) Video essayist Rick Perales presents a crisply-edited look at the role that vehicles, driving, and roads play in the films of Joel and Ethan Coen. Take a wild ride from Blood Simple to Raising, Arizona to Hail, Caesar!, and everywhere in-between.

(Flashing Images) We have no idea how much time it took Candice Drouet to edit this 5-minute compilation, but she claims it features a million still images from various movies, each shown in rapid succession. Your mission – identify as many of the movies as possible.

YouTuber BroccoliBoys condensed the plot of Stanley Kubrick’s 161-minute opus 2001: A Space Odyssey down to just under 8 minutes, and transformed it into an unofficial music video for Tame Impala’s track Let It Happen. The result is shockingly good.

Mylo the Cat presents another Muppet mashup, this time giving Miss Piggy the perfect song to sing, Rihanna’s 2012 megahit Diamonds. We’re pretty sure that Piggy would throw a major hissy fit if she found out her tiara was made from Cubic Zirconia.

Editor Bill Smith makes the already uncomfortable setting of pitching a business idea on Shark Tank and makes it truly unsettling by removing all dialogue, and just focusing in on the most awkward reaction shots. And Robert Herjavec could use some antiperspirant.

What happens when you take a pint of Britney Spears, a cupful of Rob Zombie, and 4 tablespoons of The B-52s and puree them in the blender? Musical magic in the hands of the massively talented DJ Cummerbund, that’s what. A tasty treat that’s anything but toxic.

Fabrice Mathieu cleverly combined footage from the original trilogy with footage from The Force Awakens, throwing Luke Skywalker into a battle that took place 30 years later than he last flew his X-Wing, thus introducing time travel into the Star Wars universe.

You might think that Mr. Bean is just a bumbling idiot, but John Loberger’s hilariously warped recut trailer makes him look like a deranged psychopath instead. Like other killers, we’re calling him by his full name from now on, Barnes Quentin Tarquin Farnham Bean.

If you watch Taboo (or Mad Max: Fury Road for that matter) you know that Tom Hardy can be a man of few words. Flypie Films edited together a brief compilation of some of the many times the badass Brit emitted a grunt in the first five episodes of the awesome FX series.

Anyone who watches Doctor Who knows that their favorite doc will eventually die and come back to life with a new actor in their place. The Garo Studios looks at the more recent Doctors’ facing their inevitable fates. Capaldi isn’t long for the universe either.

“What I told you was true.. from a certain point of view.” By deftly combining footage from A New Hope and the Revenge of the Sith, Shahan Reviews added a poignant flashback sequence to one of Alec Guinness’s classic scenes.

We already learned how the slapstick comedy in Home Alone would have spelled the end for Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern’s bumbling burglars, so Bit Massive made a few scenes more realistic by adding blood and gore. Seriously, this looks like a Coen Brothers movie now.

We haven’t seen the entire series yet, but what we’ve seen of Planet Earth II is majestic and visually stunning. Of course, audio makes all the difference in the world, and one madman decided that the series would be much better if all the animals were screaming.

Gene Wilder’s performance in Young Frankenstein is loaded with dramatic moments, but it was still one of the funniest movies ever. But what if it were actually a drama? Editor Ryan Shukis updated the trailer (and added bits of Van Helsing) to turn it into a real thriller.

Video editor Matthijs Vlot searched high and low for the necessary clips needed to replicate the lyrics of Adele’s megahit Hello using only dialogue spoken by characters from movies. See if you can name all the flicks.

Darren Dutton and his pals created these offbeat videos by acting out recordings from old vinyl, cassette tapes and TV programs. In keeping with their recycled approach, most of the props cost less than $2 off of eBay. Things get even weirder in Episode Two.
