Welcome Home

I love this commercial. I love the idea of welcoming home the good people who sacrifice to protect us.

Budweiser Clydesdales Salute 9/11

I don't know if you remember this commercial. It only had a limited run shortly after 9/11. Very moving.

Another Commercial

OK, I admit this one put me over the edge. I guess I'm just a pushover for little girls.

Saddest Commercial

Ok, so this commercial may just be the saddest commercial. Ever. Let me know. Also from Thailand.

Most Intense Commercial

This is widely referred to as the most intense commercial. Ever. I'll include a coupl of others that are pretty good too. This one is from Thailand. Very cool.

Meet the Wilhelm Scream

I had never heard of the Wilhelm Scream, but I had certainly heard the Wilhelm Scream. It is arguably the best recorded, and most widely used, scream effect in movies. Once you have heard it in context, it is hard to forget. Here is a compilation of film clips that use the scream.

Animusic

Here is Future Retro by Animusic. Very cool computer animation set to music.

Ocean's Eleven - Clair de Lune

Here is the finale from Ocean's Eleven. I just love the combination of the Bellagio fountains and Debussy's Clair de Lune.

Elvis is Everywhere

How could I have neglected the King? This is one great song. Perfect for weddings, bar mitzvahs, and funerals.

Happy Feet with Paolo Conte

This is either truly silly or really cool. I haven't decided yet. Due to the edit, it doesn't get interesting until 30 seconds or so.

Niles Crane



I think this just might be the funniest three minutes on television. True slapstick.

Secret Agent Bob

Secret Agent Bob and Special Agent Steve. Very funny clip generated from the multiplayer game Splinter Cell. THere are 5 or 6 of these clips available. Very funny stuff.
