College Humor imagined what the cereal aisle at the grocery store might look like if the heart-healthy, full-of-fiber cereals had fun mascots like the sugary ones do. The Grape Nuts one is my favorite – I think it tastes like gravel.

College Humor scores with this send-up of Jay-Z’s song, “Empire State of Mind,” where Stormtroopers and Rebels dance off to MC Vader’s lyrical memories of the Trilogy, while giant video screens show key scenes from the films. The Leia/Alicia Keys character’s keyboard is inspired, and the lyrics, along with the video, are here at College Humor.

Been stuck in my head since seeing it at The Zeray Gazette a few days ago.

The 2009 Ricky Gervais movie The Invention of Lying imagined a world in which everyone always told the truth and lying (for good or ill) had never existed. Jon Wolf of College Humor has created a series of graphics illustrating an Internet in which everyone always told the truth, including the hot girl on Facebook who you’ve never seen before, but wants to be your friend.

We’ve previously featured Facebook status updates from the characters of Star Wars and DC Comics heroes. Now Jason Michaels of College Humor puts the characters of The Lord of the Rings through the same treatment. Five more at the link.

Deceptive Deceptions is Dan Meth’s latest short film, this time tying together all modern conspiracy theories.  What do the JFK assassination, actor John Candy, NASA, and Wyoming have in common?  This video explains it all.

Films by Dan Meth previously featured on Neatorama:

Association Professionals Through the Ages
Internet People

This video is College Humor‘s foray into the realm of anti-smoking public service announcements. It turns out the cost to society for smoking is much, much worse than cancer and smelly carpets.

What could be better than the Internet? How about the Interweb, the musical? Here’s Web Side Story (but of course), a musical by College Humor about all the good things on the Net in the style of West Side Story. Leonard Bernstein is probably spinning in his grave.

Web Side Story, written and directed by Sam Reich, produced by Eva Wong.
