Mr Brooker expertly analyses and demonstrates how TV news is just a fluff of soundbites, animated charts, and stupid camera shots, endlessly repeated no matter what dreary piece of parping crud is touting itself as “news”.
Charlie Brooker should think getting together a ragtag band of anti-heroes that include him, Chris Morris, Stewart Lee, and Joni Mitchell and go about taking over the world.
It’s too easy to ridicule the wobbly chinned, doughy chavsters that inhabit the Jeremy Kyle Show, they get all the suffering they’ll ever need just by looking in the mirror.
So better to embrace them and direct your hatred towards Mr Lowlife himself, Jezza Kyle and the TV network that makes loads of money off the back of these people’s pain and fuck ups. That’s right, riotous indignation!
Holy glittering vampire penises! This girl’s reaction to the trailer is an epic journey fraught with emotion — and this is just the trailer. Just imagine what she’ll be like in the cinema? She’ll explode with teenage desire and despair. That’s if she can fit in the theatre in the first place.
One day, hopefully, she’ll look back at this video with utter horror and think, why did I embarrass myself in front of the internets like a dribbling, blubbering snorlax? This’ll probably stay online until the sun explodes and then all our digital data will be transposed to the cosmos for all eternity. Ah well, we all make mistakes.
People say that bungee jumping can be dangerous, or sky-diving without a parachute. Well, it’s nothing compared to the thrills and spills of this hardcore activity.
What is this daring sport, you enquire? Why, it’s the death-defying event that is the Pen Spinning World Tournament 2011. Be careful! That biro could spin out of control and have someone’s eye out.
So your mate’s got a new girlfriend, she’s super hot, she’s seems smart, but there’s one little thing that could be a bit of a problem. He met her in a chatroom and it turns out she’s not quite the age he thought she was.
And not just a little younger either, but you know, say ten years. But who meets future girlfriends in a chatroom anyway? You’ve got to be some kind of desperate freak to be hanging around those places. Everyone knows stalking girls on Facebook is the classy thing to do.
To bust a cap in yo sorry aiss. People think of Doctor Who and they think what a well-mannered English gent he is. But people forget just what a badass, gun-toting gangsta he was. No matter what get-up he’s busting he’ll be holding some futuristic firearm.
They see him traversing the space-time continuum, they hatin’. Don’t mess with the good doctor or he will superfly yo’ pathetic face into the middle of the next millennium.
So you like Batman, huh? And you like film noir? Of course you do, you’re cool, right? Well then you’re going to love this fan-fiction Batman short. Oh, I forgot it has Wolverine in it to and he has a scrap with Batman.
It’s got a Sin City aesthetic and it’s pretty dark and arty too, and it sees a retired Bats angry, old and very drunk. And who better to take out your impotent alcohol-fuelled frustrations on than that dick-loving Logan guy.
Improv Everywhere live up to their name by taking 23 actors and 2 dogs into the public space of Prospect Park in Park Slope, Brooklyn, NYC and went on “mute” at selected intervals.
The result is a lot of confused people wondering just what the heck someone slipped into their coffee while they weren’t looking. This is one to try in the office, just don’t tell the boss.
