Not to worry, they already said it's just an extra. We'll be getting our Weekly Recommended dosage of LRR sometime within the next couple of days.

Guess the bandwagon helps.


Meh, I wouldn't say it's that distorted, I can still pick out his normal voice a little. And yeah it's easier to get something popular when you work off something that is already popular. I mean their most popular video I believe is Halo: Future of Gaming.

OMG. THAT WAS FANTASTIC!

This has been quite the weekend EPIC musical lols. First "Dr. Horribles Sing Along Blog" and then this, and I'm not even sure which I liked more. I was laughing out loud during the entirety of the song.

SO INCREDIBLY AWESOME.

The Little Mermaid, nice guys, nice. My only complaint is I was distracted by the original lyrics playing in my head and will have to see it again to catch all the real ones.

I'm trying to write something with two people are angry, and I put this in the background, and now I'm all sad and gushy. I swear, this goes right through all my defenses and hits my tiny heart.

It's a good sad, though. It's uplifting, somehow.

The video is quite possibly the cutest thing I've seen all weekend! It even tops the cute the little puppy I saw at work.

I've just been surrounded by musicals this week it seems. ^_^

Even though I had to investigate Graham's link before I got this one, that little guy was very cute! :) Very nice image editing. And the singing was really well-manipulated -- I kept wondering where you'd found a small child to sing for you.

Speaking of small children + LoadingReadyRun:

My mum and I were over for dinner at my friend's house the other day, and I happened to mention one of LRR's videos as part of a joke. I started to explain what the site was about before my friend reminded us that they know Paul and his family! My mother once again rehashed her desire to adopt Paul because he's "such a nice young man" (she does that every once and a while... sorry, Paul...) and my friend's mum piped up and said that they had some photos of Wee!Paul at their wedding, and did anyone else feel like looking through some photo albums for old times' sake?

Long story short: I spent Thursday night looking at pictures of Little!Paul in the Tamura-Wells photo albums. :P (Paul, your dad really looks like you -- even more so when he was younger!)

What generates more hype than a uninformative countdown website to a release? NOT releasing it after.
This shits planned, whatever =P

Great character design (facial expression, voice); I watched the video only thrice and I'm already hating the little icon with the lamp. Very annoying and despicable, indeed.
Now if I only knew what it was about; Google yields no clarification for me.

I have only one complaint about this video.

The Little Mermaid.

Other than that, it's a good song parody. Now excuse me as I try to force the tune out of my head with something more bearable... :roll:

That might be... but... eh... fuck MS anyway XD, it's not the same since Bill left the building... now there's no one who is recognizable enough to take all the abuse from the internets ;_;

Wait, I'm lost. So Bungie is making a game to combat Super Mario Bros ?
:P
I don't keep up with the Xbox scene, but I have to say the video was pretty good.

Allowing for my limited knowledge of Bungie, won't the superintendent have to kill lot's of people? What's he going to do, wear them down with excessive plumbing bills and then suck their faces off with his plunger? This reminds me, I should really get back to finishing Marathon some time...

I will admit: now that I know what the video is about, and I've seen it a few times, it's starting to grow on me.

I find it much easier to appreciate humor when I have a context to which I can compare and contrast. If I have absolutely no idea what's going on, I can't find it funny.
