This humor is so, so British. That is indeed a Newcastle accent.

Love their energy and the non-electronic drums here. Her shirt gets caught in the fan at 3:34! I was surprised but glad they still did their song choreography even in such a small studio. They both obviously spend time in the gym.
Jasimi – Absinthe & OJ
That’s the kind of zany fun there’s just not enough of anymore. It’s really good.
Hopeful
Man, someone who actually knows something about filmmaking created this. It’s so good.
And no one is Hope and should not try to be, which is why the cover itself works.
Dead Pony – RAINBOWS
Love it.
Vulcanizadas – Indarberritzen
Basque! The only song I have in this language, I believe. Good song and vid.
MI:4
Just such a great, tight action sequence. It’s perfect. It’s dramatic, funny, doesn’t have crazy cuts and it is its own little story. The half-silent argument via CCTV is just so well-done. What I love about the entire setpiece is that there is nothing you can add or take away to make it any better. The amount of artistry, great editing, actor talent and painstaking direction that it takes to create something like this is staggering to think about.
Dianka – CORCELITO!
That’s really cute; must’ve taken forever to create.
Teardop
What wild talent.
Rattlesnake
Wow that is lovely.

You’re an adult. You can do whatever the fuck you want. This has to be a Gen Zer here, afraid of the light. As I was talking with my partner the other day I observed, accurately, that younger millennials and Gen Z have become the socially inept, isolated computer nerds we used to be but no longer are. But it’s happened to a whole generation-and-a-half of people. Seriously, the interpersonal skills of Gen Z folks are fucking terrible as they have retreated into phones and social media and can barely talk to anyone and cannot handle confrontation at all.
But as to being an adult, Baby Queen said it best.
BBYQ ❤️
I love this song so much. Baby Queen is the best. This song as it does for many people reminds me of leaving behind everyone and everything I’d known to embark on a new life in the army, knowing that I’d never see many of those people again and that no matter what happened, I’d never see them the same way again.
She captures so much real with so little.

Emma Stone makes this skit so much better than it should be. She’s so good here.

Most of these are not true, or are not true in the way expressed. Sometimes there are actual blooper takes included in films, but it’s rare. Even if there is a blooper and it turns out to be better, the director gets the actors to recreate the superior-by-accident blooper for many takes for better camera position or to really nail it.
This is mostly lies and is not the way high-budget films work. Even “improvised” lines and scenes are re-shot many times almost without exception.
Odelly – Freak
Wow that’s nice. Smooth and confident. I love Hebrew even though I can only understand 10 words of that lang. Don’t need to launder it — she’s pretty awesome.
