Charlie’s Soap is a locally-produced item that’s been available here for quite awhile. It’s now fast becoming known all over the place as a substance that will clean anything (“…from false teeth to diesel engines” as the label says) while being very friendly to the environment. Here’s a pretty hilarious commercial for the stuff that I found on YouTube:
PULP MUPPETS
‘Nuff said…
The Burger King commercial with Krusty the Clown
“I’m behind on seven alimonies! I’m wearing paper bags for shoes!”
More classic SESAME STREET: “The Dirtiest Town in the West”
Another great clip from the early days of Sesame Street. From 1979, said to have been inspired by Johnny Cash’s appearance on The Muppet Show during which he sang “Ghost Riders in the Sky”, here is the clever parody “The Dirtiest Town in the West” …
300 a’la The Simpsons
Audio from the 300 trailer mashed-up with footage from The Simpsons TV show and movie trailers …
Clip of VH1’s WEB JUNK 2.0 featuring my school board ad (and a nice mention by The Heritage Foundation)
A few days ago was when I first heard that Web Junk 2.0 on VH1, in an episode titled “Animals & Other Crap”, had a segment featuring my first school board commercial. Here’s the clip, which includes some pretty hilarious commentary by Web Junk 2.0 host Aries Spears (I was literally in the floor laughing while watching and listening to his witty remarks) …
Speaking of the school board ad, Tom Finnigan at The Heritage Foundation had some really nice things to say about it on the foundation’s blog two days ago…
...The ad has been featured on VH1’s Web Junk 2.0 and in The New York Times, Raleigh News & Observer, and The Charlotte Observer. Knight deserves kudos for promoting a fiscally conservative message to a diverse audience in a novel and entertaining way. Judging by the almost 60,000 views and overwhelmingly positive comments, it’s possible that Knight
New vlog entry: America needs new heroes
Another in what is threatening to become a regular series of “vlog” entries. This one was inspired by today’s vote in the Senate which killed amnesty for illegal aliens… for now. But in this I also go into how America has a serious need for a new generation of leaders to take the reins from the ones who have been exploiting her for too long:
First “vlog” with YouTube quick capture
First time recording a video straight to YouTube with my webcam and microphone. This may or may not be a “regular feature” on this blog (obviously “Crapshoot with Chris Knight” didn’t get far, but I might just save that for “big” stuff)…
PUNCH-OUT!! Trailer
Nothing I say can prepare you for how cool this is:
This was done for some video contest sponsored by Nintendo. I think it’s one of the most brilliant videos ever put on YouTube. Oh yeah, and “Little Mac” has his own Myspace page, too!
If only Mike Tyson had behaved himself and not got his name stripped-off the Punch-Out game…
EDIT 6/21/2007 2:00 a.m. EST: The contest was something called Nintendo Short Cuts Showcase… and Punch-Out!! didn’t win anything! But it’s sure a huge hit on YouTube.
Amazing that a four-and-a-half minute short film about a Nintendo game produced by a gang of good friends would be something that’s much more fun to watch than the full-length Super Mario Bros. movie done by a major studio....
My first video for the Ron Paul cause
It’s late. I’ve been working on this video since yesterday afternoon. Had some weird encoding problems. But the first “political advertisement” I’ve made in support of Ron Paul for President is all finished now, and uploaded to YouTube for your viewing pleasure. I call it “Sick and Tired and Needing a Doctor” …
This is like the third or fourth production I’ve done lately that involves me being shown with a toilet: parse that as you will. But all the same, I think this turned out rather nice. What do you think? 🙂
Okay, this is a good enough post to close out the week with. I’m going to take a break from blogging for the next few days. Have a great weekend y’all!
EDIT 11:47 a.m. EST: The video has been posted on Daily Paul! After this update I really am stepping away from the ‘puter for a ...
