Episode 171: “My life is brilliant, my love is pure”

Love this:

Now I want to see more of this Australian comedy group, Axis of Awesome!

Episode 171: “If you want a book for your toilet or something”

I’m loving the new Doctor Who episodes. I had my doubts whether or not Matt Smith could pull it off, but I’m falling in love with his Doctor. And Karen Gillan as the new sidekick companion is great too; funny and cute, but with a mysterious back story as well (I so think the main mythology of this season will have to do with her).

Anyways, yesterday there was a special Doctor Who event at the Soho Apple store with a live Q&A with Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Stephen Moffat:

Episode 169: “I like your hair. I mean… I like the air.”

You know how addicted to Dr. Horrible I am (I know the words to almost all the songs)… if you are too, you’ll love this video:

If you enjoyed that, the 8-bit soundtrack is available on this website.

Episode 167: “duh duh da da da duh do”

I came across this brilliant Star Trek medley on ElectricSpectre, played by the Buckingham Palace Guard. It’s awesome:

The YouTube user who uploaded the video was amazed to stumble on this:

I was in London at a conference and the day after I went sightseeing. I of course watched the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace. I couldn’t believe what I heard when they started playing… 😀

Do you recognize the series whose themes they’re playing? It’s four of them! I did and this was quite possibly one of the best parts of my visit to London!

Sorry for the bad quality that’s all my cheap photo camera is capable of.

It’s not the first time something like that has been done though:

Episode 166: “We built a wall, we built the pyramids”

I love singing along with TV theme songs; I still know the words to many theme songs of cartoons I used (Captain Planet, he’s our hero, gonna take pollution down to zero… ehm, but I digress). So this TV theme medley with 21 songs is just brilliant:

Episode 165: “We are young, we are strong”

I loved Kick-Ass, and can’t wait for everyone else to see it (see my review here)! The red carpet premiere is in a couple of hours at London’s Leicester Square, so in honour of that, here’s the music video from Mika’s Kick-Ass title track:

I kind of like the song, but I hate the clip. When I first heard it during the end credits after watching Kick-Ass, it felt as if it fit with the movie. But this clip?? Nope, not liking it at all.
