Potter to Cyrus

Yay :)
Let's start this post off on a good note, literally. This video is for the Harry Potter fans out there. You don't have to be a scholar on the books, but to get the humor of the video you must know the basic plot. If you do not know the basic plot please remove yourself from the rock which you are under, it is crushing your soul. This feature is actually comprised of a heaping 23 videos combined to make a "Very Potter Musical". There are 14 videos in the first act and 9 videos comprising the second act. In no way is the musical a direct version of the Harry Potter series, but it is a humorous interpretation. These talented students (who are fans of J.K. Rowling’s work) wrote and preformed this hilarious take on the Harry Potter books. The only bad thing that I have to say about this feature is the recording is taken from a live audience perspective, so there are times when the laughter of the crowd makes it difficult to hear the actors. But overall, the writing is amusing, the acting is respectable, and the singing is impressive. I give this video a 3.5/5 . Enjoy :)



Nay :(
Miley Cyrus, or Hannah Montana has become one of the most famous tweens of our time. BLECK! Her hit television show "Hannah Montana" (aired on Disney Channel) runs on the lesson that all you need to do to be popular and loved is slap on a blond wig and be someone you're not. And when you’re acting normal and embracing who you really are, you will me made fun of by the popular girls and only have two friends. What a great role model huh? Well Miley proves herself once again in her vblog after the Grammies. She starts off with "Sup Miley-world?!", yes Miss Cyrus, the entire world revolves around you. Through her whole video she is making rude and obnoxious faces. My favorite part is when she annoys Taylor Swift into scolding her with a "HANNAH!" and Miley continues to force herself not only into Taylor's personal space but also into her personal vblog. And to wrap it all up our dearest Miley ends her video with a quaint "I'm gonna throw up..." Classy. I give this a 1/5, but only because it was almost entertaining to watch her kill her own career. Enjoy?


And finally, I've decided to add one more section. I want to know what you guys think. So I will post a video that could go either way, and you tell me what you think. I'll reveal in my next post how I feel about it.

So what do you think? Most epic freak out of all time? Fake? Or just plain disturbing?

Oh the joys of YouTube

If it wasn't for our dearest friend YouTube, I would not be the wonderful procrastinator that I am today. This magic website has taught me to cram entire semesters of work into one night, and really appreciate the art of a good parody. And what kind of person would I be if I did not share this joy with you? So in each blog I will post a "Yay" and a "Nay" video (I think you know what yay and nay implies,if you do not-- please get off the Internet. Congratulations on turning your computer on, but I am afraid this is as far as you are going to get). Let's start with a yay :)

YAY :)
This one is a personal favourite of mine. Fredde Gredde (or Freddie25 as he is known is cyber world) preforms an epic mash up of a heaping 32 songs in 8 minutes. Let's not forget that he is accompanying himself on the guitar. This Swedish native also brings an element of comedy into the mix with a few childhood favourites. I'd give Freddie25 a 4/5 on this one. Enjoy



NAY :(
This one is on the other side of the see-saw. As Freddie25 gracefully glides to reach the top, "nerimon" falls to the mud like a fat kid who thinks "maybe I should try the see-saw anyway". Well kid, I've got news for you. Give up, gravity still exists, either drastically change yourself or move on... nobody wants to see that. I literally had to force myself to watch this video. I would tell you not to quit your day job, but as you revealed in you video... you already did. Smooth move there Sherlock. Alex Day (his real name), only had one slightly entertaining thing to say but that came at minute 5. I do not think that many people will make it that far. I give this video .2/5. Enjoy?
