FanMade

Because we are fans of fans here at FanMadeDotOrg, this video is especially fitting.

We applaud you Daniel. You are a fan after my own heart.

Sarcastic Gamer has put together this parody of Microsoft’s “Future” Video. Microsoft released a series of videos showing what their devices might look like in the future, apparently in an attempt to distract us from the fact that their devices don’t work in the present. Of course, we here at FanMadeDotOrg are avid Mac Fans, so perhaps that fuels our love for this spoof video:

Sarcastic Gamer also spoofed Microsoft’s first concept video for their “Surface” computer. Check that out here.

When I was young, my father had an old Radio-Controlled “Willy’s” Jeep. I couldn’t get enough of that thing. I would steal my sister’s dolls and strap them in next to the driver and see how many corners it took for them to fly out. The batteries in that thing seemed to take a week to charge, and I didn’t want to believe that they were ever really draining to begin with.

This video short made by SCADShorts on YouTube shows off their love for RC toys, but with a rather sarcastic spin:

What was your favorite RC toy? Did anyone have a fire-breathing dragon? I wanted one of those. Sound off in the comments.

Also, check out SCADShorts’ 2009 Doritos Super Bowl Commercial Contest Entry, “Too Delicious“. It was my personal favorite, but didn’t win the contest.

This reminds me a lot of the Sweded versions of films, but instead of putting too much work into it, this site only dedicates 3 drawings.

Here’s the best version I’ve seen of Lord of The Rings in a long time:

3 Frame Movies isn’t going to give you the thrill of elaborate chase scenes or the intrigue and mystery of trying to find the villain. It certainly won’t give you the satisfaction of realizing the state of the human condition through the complex character development that takes place over the course of 90 minutes of film. But who has time for that anyway?

My personal favorites on their list of movies:

• Star Wars (of course)
• Back To The Future
• Jurassic Park

(we found this on NOTCOT.org)

So, with the new dawn of talking electronic devices, it’s just common sense to make them play out a scene from Bladerunner.

I weep on behalf of the scriptwriters whose work is now being read by diodes and capacitors. “My mother? Let me tell you about my mother.”
