Wednesday Afternoon Videos

Working on a couple of projects this afternoon, one of which includes some further thinking about political mashups (currently working through some of Howard Rheingold's ideas on participatory media literacy). But I also came across a couple of cool movie trailer remixes that I don't want to lose.

First, check out Davis Jung's "Last Lion King of Scotland," which nicely remixes the Idi Amin biopic with the Disney film. Davis raises some interesting questions in his artist's statement, and the video is a nice remix not only of two very different films but also a useful take on the rhetoric of movie trailers in general.

I'm not sure how long this remix of Little Miss Sunshine into a horror film has been around, but it's pretty funny, although I'll admit that my enjoyment probably comes from being caught up in the backlash against LMS.
