I am really looking forward to this movie. Here’s the new trailer.

YouTube Tuesday: The elements of an oscar winner
I haven’t watched a whole lot of YouTube since I’ve been predominantly browsing using mobile broadband – I confess to not having seen this the whole way through. And I even think a couple of other people in my blogroll may have posted this already. But it’s topical (given that we just had the Oscars).You
YouTube Tuesday: A bridge over troubled water
This was our drive to college today. Jeremy is hardcore.
YouTube Tuesday: My Guitar Hero
I’m still trying to clear up my queue of stuff I have been planning to post for ages. This is incredible. It takes Christmas light displays to a whole new level. A guy rigged up his lights so that passers by could play guitar hero with them.
(Almost) YouTube Tuesday: The theodicy of Tetris
Pretty funny. Unless there is an outrageous amount of swearing in the last 20 seconds. In which case this is terrible.
YouTube Tuesday: Party Trick edition
So keen am I to bring you this regular column that I’m posting these having not actually watched them. We’re still working with a tethered iPhone here…
What’s your party trick?
YouTube Tuesday: Steve Jobs should cut the adjectives
Why don’t we all pretend, for a moment, that it’s Tuesday – and not Thursday. Because you are a gracious readership.
Steve Jobs’ product launch speeches are truly superlative… or full of superlatives.
You’ve seen almost the same video before (here somewhere). Here’s the launch of the iPad. Reduced to adjectives.
YouTube Tuesday: Spiderman fail
Ha. Ha ha. Hahaha.
YouTube Tuesday: TV Pranks
I pressed post on this last night – I thought…
I hadn’t seen this before – Bill O’Reilly gets Rick Roll’d (and swears in response). Apparently the Christian Right is ok with that…
But this is perhaps my favourite. A Christian TV program that reads out and answers emails without appearing to vet them. Check it out.
YouTube Tuesday: Puntastic
The Governator has been playing with words for many years – so it should come as no surprise that he issues such classy vetoes.
Here is a selection of puns from his bad guy in whichever Batman movie it was that Mr Freeze appeared in – they all look the same to me…
The tags on this post indicate I actually do know which Batman movie it was in…
YouTube Tuesday: Guns don’t kill people, Australians do
Scarily enough – this guy is Australian.
YouTube Tuesday: Bear with me
I know it’s Thursday – but I can’t let the week go by without my regular prescription of YouTube Tuesday…
It seems the story of Elisha the prophet and the two she-bears is popular with atheists at the moment for showing that God is an angry figment of our imagination. It cropped up in a comment thread here a few days ago, and has been mentioned in a couple of other posts around the atheist blogosphere.
I’ve never read the story (included below) with the understanding that the youths died. I’ve always thought a “mauling” didn’t involve a fatality. It certainly doesn’t in Rugby (though spectators often die of boredom).
23 From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some youths came out of the town and jeered at him. “Go on up, you baldhead!” they said. “Go on up, you baldhead!” 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths.
Some bright spark has further mocked Elisha (risking the ire of a new generation of bears) – creating a video (containing graphic, but comic, violence and some language) to retell the story with Elisha portrayed as a Hip Hop Gangsta Rapper. Or something. It made me laugh – but be warned – it’s not for everyone. You’ll probably find it very offensive and regret watching it. I’ll probably regret posting it.
YouTube Tuesday: Goal
FIFA’s goal of the year candidates are pretty special. You
YouTube Tuesday: What if?
Do you ever engage your imagination in the pursuit of speculative scenarios.
How would the world be different if Hitler had won the war? What if Ghandi had lived? What if Hillary Clinton had won the US Presidential Election?
What if James Dean had lived?
Or better – what if George Lucas had directed Singing in the Rain…
What’s your favourite what if? Or, what’s the best YouTube video you’ve seen this week – post it in the comments.
