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

Written by Ashley Burns / 11.18.11

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.

Get Steve Buscemi’s Face All Over Yo Bodaaay

Written by Ashley Burns / 07.12.11

Hey ladies, have you ever found yourself shopping for a new dress for a special occasion, but you’ve tried everything and just can’t find that “I want people to stare at me and then scream” look? Well worry no more, because the fine people at Black Milk Clothing have you covered with their fantastic Steve Buscemi dress.

But if Steve’s not your thing, Black Milk has plenty more to fit your movie fashion desires, including dresses based on The Shining, The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues, Lord of the Rings, a Beetlejuice bodysuit, and even Matrix leggings.

You can check out their styles after the jump, but they have even more over at their web site, including some awesome patriotic swimsuits. Basically, I’m giving you more reasons to go ogle the model some more. While $100 might seem a little expensive for Buscemi’s face clinging to your lady parts, winning a man’s heart by wearing someone’s creepy face over your body is priceless.

Amazing mash-up alert: Morpheus explains Matrix to The Dude

Written by Vince Mancini / 09.08.10

Not a day goes by that I don’t get sent a trailer mashup where someone puts music from one movie over another movie, or recuts a comedy as a drama, or adds Jar Jar Binks, or whatever, and usually they’re not that good.  They get boring after a while, anyway.  But damn, whoever cut together Morpheus explaining The Matrix to The Dude from Big Lebowski is a genius.  This is the best one I’ve seen since eagles-Matrix

MORPHEUS: “Do you believe in fate, Neo?”
THE DUDE: “Mmm… that and a pair of testicles.”

MORPHEUS: “The Matrix is everywhere.”
THE DUDE: “What is that, yoga?”

MORPHEUS: “You take the blue pill, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.”
THE DUDE: “What are you, a fukin park ranger now?”

The guy even squeezed in a joke about The Eagles AND the Big Lebowski hallucination sequence. If he’d managed a Montana Fishburne reference I might marry him.

“You can imagine what happens from there.”
“He puts farts in her monkey fufu?”
“Don’t be fatuous, Jeffrey.”

RETARDED MOVIE COMPARISON OF THE DAY

Written by Vince Mancini / 11.18.08

Ahh, these are fun.  First we had “Lord of the Flies meets Children of Men“.  Then there was “the Blade Runner of Monopoly movies,” and of course, who could forget a “cold-blooded Free Willy.”  Well today there’s a new bonehead comparison in town.

Warner Bros. is pressing “Control-Alt-Delete,” picking up the high-concept spec from writers Tim Kelleher and Danny Zuker. Bob Shaye and Dylan Sellers are producing through their Unique Features banner.

The concept is described as “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure” meets “The Matrix.” Sarah Schechter and Jesse Ehrman are overseeing for the studio.

Uh… Wasn’t The Matrix already Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure meets The Matrix?  Isn’t pretty much every Keanu Reeves movie Bill and Ted meets something?  Hey, I have an idea for a movie.  It’s kind of like Keanu Reeves meets acting school.
