Just What ‘The Matrix’ Needed: Mambo No. 5

I don’t know about you, but I remember watching The Matrix for the first time and thinking, “This is OK, but I sure wish there was a way to make it more like a bar mitzvah.” Well thanks to the neverending creative juices of the internet, the inevitable has happened. Someone mashed up the lobby fight scene in The Matrix with Lou Bega’s classic hit, “Mambo No. 5.”

It’s not the most inspired mashup that I’ve ever seen, but I like the idea. I think that more classic movies should be re-dubbed with the worst songs of the 90s. Maybe The English Patient with Chumbawumba’s “Tubthumping” or Precious with Sir Mix-A-Lot’s “Baby Got Back.” The possibilities are endless. I expect more from you, anonymous Internet people.
