https://youtu.be/sNaau2uPFqI Another one that's been doing the rounds but I've only gotten round to checking it out now (videos and mobile data plans do not mix...also I much prefer text and images, videos can be real time sinks) and I was surprised by the greatness of this dance compilation of all the Christopher Walken films by Ben Craw. Walken is often employed in dance roles because he initially trained as a dancer, and also his unusual looks and dancing works very well for comic effect as well as scarier roles. Also interesting that Huffington Post has a Movie Mashups wing? Shows how mainstream video mashups have become, with big companies using them to promote, like the Conan O'Brien using newreader clips to show how unoriginal they are - which is a steal off The Daily Show, in fact (although they have more of a political point, rather than viral clickbait). Not sure I feel about this co-opting of an artform I have been heavily involved in - I mean when masters such as ThriftshopXL, Cassetteboy and Eclectic Method can't mostly get a look-in, but NBC and HuffPo are stealing their style? Not cool. And obviously a lot less radical and easier for TV companies to use the footage, as they all have agreements especially about news. So not naughty or illegal at all (movies, less so...then again I doubt HuffPo would get the same aggro as a minor video masher) https://www.youtube.com/watch?vKZ1mA1NeUmU
