Awesome Parodies

(NSFW: Language) Despite its name, Cory Bortnicker and Brett Molé’s website actually shows a series of hilarious ready made mockups of book covers poking fun at Malcolm Gladwell’s books.

Ghosts are among the best when it comes to black ops missions, but what happens if one of them decides to lead an ordinary life? Almost exactly the same thing, only with less killing.

It’s not a Hasbro title, but after Battleship we wouldn’t necessarily be surprised if we saw a real trailer for a blockbuster based on Tetris in the near future. Our guess? The Russians are behind it.

While we like the idea of high-tech weapons as much as the next guy, we think that Sneaky Zebra’s take on Siri as a chatty combat assistant is ridiculous and would ultimately get you killed.

The Avengers has been hyped for so long, so it’s not surprising – or bad – that we have two Sweded versions of the movie’s trailers. This one by Table 8 Productions features an insecure Loki.

Want to make a reality show? Your subject doesn’t really matter. Just follow this sample video from BBC sketch show That Mitchell and Webb Look. Seriously though this crap has to stop.

Ryan Gosling may have been a bad-ass wheelman in Drive, but Alex Blagg works a different angle, as a pro at picking up from fast food drive-thrus. We never knew a spork was such an effective weapon.

(NSFW: Language) We’ll admit that we had to refresh our memory by watching Bone Thugz -N- Harmony’s original video for First of the Month but the Pugz definitely do it justice. (Thanks Dave!)

This special extended version of the classic 90’s commercial for the Talkboy Tape Recorder shows that the jerky little brother wasn’t exactly the innocent prankster we thought he was.

Google’s Project Glass seems like an awesome idea. But rebelliouspixels thinks the concept video was missing one more Google element: ads. It’s funny because it may very well be true.

The Nostromo has become the Chocstromo in this special Easter edition of Alien. When will explorers learn not to mess with the eggs of unknown species – no matter how delicious they look?

(Spoilers) Time travel – neat cop out or inescapable plot hole? CollegeHumor continues its SNES-ification of TV shows and takes on the Eleventh Doctor’s head-scratching adventures.

(NSFW: Language) The land of Tamriel hides a dark secret: The Thane of Whiterun is a compulsive hoarder. Actually it’s not a secret. We all do it. We blame Bethesda for making it too easy.

Jason Statham is the Jack Bauer of action stars. He’s starred in many movies, but too much of the same thing in a short time makes it seem like he’s appearing in the same movie every time.

Dawson Brothers Funtime unveils the latest in tablet technology – the iPad for horses. It caters to all equine needs with just a clip-clop on its touchscreen. It even has neigh recognition tech.

The gentlemen are back at it again, this time opining about the “entirely new” iPad, and why perhaps it isn’t the greatest thing since sliced bread or the electric cat litter box. (Thanks Ruby!)

Brace yourselves, a couch gag is coming. The latest episode of The Simpsons took aim at HBO. The fun started early with a parody of Game of Thrones’ iconic opening sequence.

(NSFW: Nudity) Clayton Sotos captures moments created by the human body with the help of Dell Inspiron. Or not. You decide. The fact that it’s on Vimeo is a nice touch.

Kenny Powers is starting to kick things into high gear as MFCEO of K-Swiss. Here he is introducing the world to the new Blades shoe the only way he knows how: like a boss.

(NSFW: Language) Instead of re-releasing the Star Wars films over and over, Lucasfilm should just have funny people like Brock Baker dub over them. Chewie is freakin’ hilarious.

The latest sketch from Mega64 is funny as always, but it could also be prophetic. A future where games don’t come in physical media could be convenient, but might be expensive as well.

(NSFW: Language) Holly Laurent of improv group The Second City apes Lana Del Rey and her song Video Games as she talks about the characters of Hunger Games. Rhyming skills ftw.

(NSFW: Language) Matthew Frost directed this clever ad for the French fashion magazine Jalouse. It takes us inside of the boardroom viral marketing video pitch. Let’s hope the kids really like it.
