Back in July 2007, I had posted a viral video of 1500 prison inmates in the Philippines, practicing the dance moves to Michael Jackson’s Thriller.
Well, the boys are at it again. And this time, they are dancing to a remix of Soulja Boy’s ‘Crank That‘ and MC Hammer’s ‘You Can’t Touch This‘.

The first teaser trailer for the upcoming X-Files 2 movie was shown at Wondercon. Judging by the reaction of the crowd in this low-quality, bootleg clip, it’s obvious that Dana Scully (the gorgeous Gillian Andersen) & Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) will always have a special place in popular culture.
Unfortunately, I’m not sure if any [...]

This mean-looking, ‘prehistoric’ mouse is from Secret Design, a computer modding and design firm based in Germany.

This ad for Axe Pulse deodorant, titled ‘Quake’, is from Argentina. The ad-makers have eschewed the typical raunchiness, that is the trademark of most Axe commercials, opting instead for more subtle, classier advertising.

The ‘iband‘ is the world’s first iphone band. They used apps for the iphone such as iano, iphonesynth and BeatPhone. The music that they have created won’t exactly set the world on fire, but they have promised more in the days to come.
Enjoy the music.

Another crazy video mashup. This time it’s classic cinema scenes voiced by the cast of Nickelodeon’s Spongebob Squarepants .
They did not spare anyone, not ever poor Marlon Brando’s Vito Corleone in The Godfather.

My favorite is the ‘Maria’ model from Metropolis, and I would "love" to make a life-sized one. Just thought other readers of JazJaz might enjoy [...]

More retro movie madness. This is one of the awesomest clips, I have ever been able to lay my eyes upon.

The first trailer for the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull is out, and it’s, I’m embarrassed to admit, really cool.
