Thanks, hh. That was every bit as painful as I had hoped. I'd also love/hate to see a montage of villains telling heroes "you just don't get it, do you?".

awesome, as is your want, hh.

I just love the variety of sources. From Band of Brothers to Arachnaphobia to Honey, I Shrunk The Kids to The Dirty Dozen. hh does it again (as always).

Producing videos of this quality one after another and I'm supposed to believe this is just one person?

Get the fuck outta here.

The urge to leave my office was so strong after watching that that I had to start drinking. Thanks hh.

hh is like the Banksy of video editing. He's so mysterious and brilliant.

Or it's just Hubert Humphrey fuckin' around.

forty seconds in and that phrase has already lost all meaning.

There are no words.

I am in awe hh.

It's obvious that hh stands for "humperdinck humperdinck".

hh

Humbert Humbert?

Sorry.

Great mashup!

Well done, hh! Although, after a while I just got "Manna Manna" stuck in my head...(all together!)

Doot dooo do do do

Get out of there!

Doot doot doot do

Get out of there!

Doot dooo do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do do do doot doot doo-doo do.

Getemout a mout mout mout em mou mou emiddly middly middly doot doot do daddum. Ah get 'em out out out...uh?

(Is being glared at by singers)

(Sigh) Get out of there.

Doot dooo do do do...

Hahaha, vic has ruined that song for me forever.

Not that it's a bad thing.

that was fantastic.

also, spiders suck.

hh, I bow to your genius.

And I love everyone's suggestions for future mashups.

How about one of all the best insults in the movies?

"I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog-faced buffoon."

Shooting - a collection of all the impossible shots made by the good guys, juxtaposed against the horrible aim of the bad guys. I'm looking at you, Imperial stormtroopers.

"Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise...", my ass.

Avatar is out on DVD already? That seems so fast! Either that or Mr. Lindsay has been slipping me roofies again and I've been losing blocks of time. It's still February right? Unusually warm winter we're having! Global warming HAHAHAHAHA.

What?

where you are, that is.

Brilliant work! Although I'll admit, those damn spiders made me cringe.

Awesome as always, but I note the egregious omission of Commander Kruge (Christopher Lloyd) from Star Trek III.

Rykker,
Kruge's "get out of there!" was the inspiration for the whole thing, so I was surprised that it didn't make the cut. It could almost replace Lithgow as the finale in that montage. Dude was intense.

It's not so much exposing the repetition of the line that's amusing as it is exposing the repetition of the situation symbolized by the line. Sure, there are certain lines that are repeated, but it's the constant reliance on the same unnecessary situations that deserves to be lampooned.

a few more ideas hh,

"The Clap"
A technically challenging montage I'd love to see is a compilation of slow claps, with a consistent rhythm maintained throughout. Whether used to pull the heartstrings or to show a villain's smug sarcasm, at this point it only succeeds in getting a groany laugh.

"Clip Show"
A montage of weapons being reloaded in stylish and retardedly impractical ways. You know the ones: some stone-faced chick in black vinyl flying through the air and slamming two empty handguns down on a pair of full magazines in slo-mo. Terminators spinning a lever-action rifle to cock it and jerking off a pump shotgun.

"You Still Don't Get It, Do You?"
Mentioned above and still one of my least favorite movie cliches. Hopper to Reeves in Speed is a classic example.

"Bottom of the 9th"
Any time a character in a sports film tells other characters where our heroes stand at a critical juncture in the big game, match, race, tournament, whatever. It lets us know that the stakes are high, since the film might not have actually produced any real sense of drama and suspense. It also may be due to studios making a "film for everyone" that involves a cool sport/activity undertaken by almost no one (bungee jumping rifle marksmanship) which requires much more exposition than if the film were about something that more than 5% of us do everyday. Who would want to see that, though? They'd probably talk a lot and stuff.

"I'm in."
Clips of people dramatically saying they're in.

"Won't Need This Anymore..."
Any time a person in a dangerous situation discards a weapon, often after using it only once, when the danger has obviously not passed. This one is right up there with cell phone failure in the horror film handbook of stupid ideas to artificially put/keep the heroes in jeopardy.

"Uhhhhh...Sure..."
No one ever believes anyone who has seen something weird. Take an extra shot if the sheriff/boyfriend/parents, etc. prove to be not just unhelpful but actually obstructive.

"N350SC"
When you recognize the same helicopter showing up in several movies, and you're not a helicopter or movie nut, it's time for them to get a new chopper. Then there's the famous PKE meter from Ghostbusters that shows up as a communication device in They Live. Celebrate the reuse in montage style. That thing with the three red neon tubes in it from sci-fi movies could be a film in itself.

"Whattawe Got?"
You've seen it. A plain-clothes detective in an unmarked but coppy-looking car rolls up to a fresh crime scene, parks haphazardly, and gets the crime scene tape lifted for him/her as he/she swaggers through the sea of unis holding back the throngs. Another cop, an ME, a CSI, or whatever, someone on the scene, meets them in mid-stride and our game-faced hero(ine) tosses out the question that kicks off the whole thing. It's another constantly regurgitated trope; the audience loves to imagine being so important that they can park sideways in front of a fire hydrant, a corpse, and 20 cops.

"Oh, and Johnny...One More Thing..."
After a lengthy conversation, a powerful and menacing character at a desk dismisses the character he sent for, but as the person is leaving, there's one more thing...there's always one more thing. It's realy the only thing that matters in the scene, and it's usually a threat.

I think we need a montage of just movie montages. You know, the training scenes in Karate Kid and Rocky and every other sport film; end of life/deathbed montages of someone's life like in Vanilla Sky. Even the South Park puppet movie montage about montages:

The hours approaching, just give it your best
You've got to reach your prime.
That's when you need to put yourself to the test,
And show us a passage of time,
We're gonna need a montage (montage)
Oh it takes a montage (montage)

Show a lot of things happing at once,
Remind everyone of what's going on (what's going on?)
And with every shot you show a little improvement
To show it all would take to long
That's called a montage (montage)
Oh we want montage (montage)

And anything that we want to go from just a beginner to a pro,
You need a montage (montage)
Even Rocky had a montage (montage)

(Montage…montage)

Anything that we want to go from just a beginner to a pro,
You need a montage (montage)
Oh it takes a montage (montage)

Always fade out in a montage,
If you fade out, it seem like more time
Has passed in a montage,
Montage

Anyone else having trouble watching the video? It seems to just pause at the 25 second mark. This happens on the embedded and YouTube versions and with two different browsers. :(

Terrific as always, but you missed the "Get that President outta here!" line from Mars Attacks, which was clearly in on the joke.

Add-on for an epic ending.
