  Subway Stops Inches Before Woman on Tracks

  Docs & Non-Fiction (News), Drama & Genre (Suspense), Other Gems (TV Clip), Viral (Shock)
  [ 0:47 - from Fox ]

  Wowsers.  I guess the title kinda tells you how this ends, but even knowing that the title character is not made into Subway roadkill won't keep you from flinching.  Amazing how this subway somehow avoids running over the drunk woman who falls onto the tracks and just lays there as the oncoming light gets closer.  Extra points for the cool camera technology that tracks bodies for this kind of emergency - you see the shapes moving on the screen around the people. view

  Ambiguous Endings Resolved

  Comedy (Broad, Spoof), Viral (Re-edits)
  [ 2:05 - from College Humor ]

  Hey!  Have you wondered what really happened between Bill Murray and Scarlett Johanssen at the end of "Lost in Translation"?  Or if Mickey Rourke died at the end of "The Wrestler"?  Now you still won't!  Because whatever happened, I am certain it is not what has been substituted by the meth fiends at College Humor. view

  Original Takes for Orson Welles Wine Commercial

  Comedy (Unintentionally Funny), Viral (Time Capsule)
  [ 1:20 - from YouTube ]

  These outtakes from a late 70's champagne commercial showcase one of cinema's mightiest figures barely able to speak. The director/actor/writer of such landmarks as "Citizen Kane", "Touch of Evil" and "F for Fake" drunkenly stumbles through his lines, clearly unaware of what he's doing or why. And the reactions of his co-stars are priceless. view

  Music (Music Videos), Viral (Mashup)
  [ 3:20 - from YouTube ]

  There are movie clip montages and then there's this - in a class so by itself, it's hard to find anything to compare it to. This is the kind of thing they should show during the Oscars, or even better, give the creator one.  view

  Gavin McInnes: The Naturist: Honey - Water

  Comedy (Broad, Spoof), Other Gems (Branded Entertainment)
  [ 2:36 - from YouTube ]

  The slick Teva hiking boots this guy is wearing will never protect him from his stupidity. A brilliant web comedy short. As always, Gavin McInnes shines.   view
