Parody of Glengarry Glen Ross for the Harvey Awards
(Video Link)
The Harvey Awards are given annually by the comic book industry. This promotional video for them is a parody of Alec Baldwin’s sales rant from the movie Glengarry Glen Ross. The corporate office sends Val down to talk to the dregs in the sales department: Garfield, Heathcliff, Dagwood, Charlie Brown, and that guy from B.C. The message is simple: sell newspapers or you’re fired.
First prize is a Harvey Award. Anybody want to see Second prize? A can of spinach. Third prize is you’re fired. You get the picture? … You’ve got a readership. The syndicates paid good money. Get them to buy the newspaper!
Here’s the original scene from Glengarry Glen Ross. Content warning: adult language in both videos.

R2-D2, Subtitled
Do you ever wonder what R2-D2 was saying in the Star Wars movies? YouTube user Mortal Wombat (of meanestbear blog) went to the trouble of translating "Artoo’s" machine chirping into English for all of our enjoyment:

Kevin Garnett stars in Monty Python and the Holy Grail
As part of Gatorade’s new branding campaign (apparently research shows more people will buy sugar water if it’s called “G”), TBWA/Chiat/Day and Tarsem teamed up to make a brilliant parody of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Enjoy this ten minute film, as King Kevin Garnett and various other athletes go on a quest for hydration. Can’t say it made me want to buy more . . . G, but I’d buy a pagan Kareem and his talking goat herald toy in a second.

My Kitty Can Fly Every time the cat outwits me, I figure out a way to stop her from jumping over the fence ... You may think I have a little bit too much time on my hand, and you could be right. But I just consider this a challenge because I read one time that nobody has ever built a fence that is capable of keeping a cat either in or out of a place ...

Association Professionals Through The Ages by Dan Meth
What would it be like if noteable moments in history were run by committees and their endless strategy planning sessions?

Mail Order Husbands
Guys have been able to erhm, order, a mail order bride from Russia and Asia for quite some time now. But what about the ladies? Fulfilling an obviously under-served niche is this fantastic website, Mail Order Husbands.
This one to the left is "Steven"
I’m definitely a classic romantic. I like a candlelight dinner, some quiet background music, and a couple hits of ether. I prefer a woman that has insurance and a car would be great as I need to make the occassional trip to Mexico to pick up "souvenirs".
I’m sure this is the foremost questions your mind:
Q: What does it cost the parties involved?
Art: It all depends on the demand. We have an excellent variety of quality bachelors, and the highest demand is for men around 30 years old with lots of hair. For example if you want to order a 52 year old bald man who has bad psioriasis, well then maybe $600.. but say we had a candidate that looked like a young Erik Estrada, well that kind of product doesn’t last long, we typically charge around $9,000.

Doctor Who Meets Star Trek
Remember the epic Star Wars and Star Trek mash up on Neatorama a while ago? Well, Squeezing My Mind Grapes blog has something that may just be even better: forget Star Wars, the Enterprise has just met … Doctor Who!
From Kelvington (who has a whole bunch of other mash up parodies), behold the Doctor Who Meets Star Trek for Christmas: Link [embedded YouTube]
Food Safety Songs
Dr. Carl Winter takes popular songs and changes the lyrics to incorporate food safety instructions. The results are funny! I Want to Hold Your Hand by the Beatles becomes You Better Wash Your Hands, Heartache Tonight is turned into Stomachache Tonight, and We Are The Champions becomes We Are the Microbes. Many songs have accompanying videos. Link -via Eat Me Daily
