One of my favorite classic YouTube mashups that reveals, Hugo Weaving’s Agent Smith accent to be nothing more than a knock off of prolific astronomer, Carl Sagan.

This music video, brought to you by Indonesian rock band, SIGIT (Super Insurgent Group of Intemperance Talent) reminds me a bit of Nick Cage’s Lord of War.

As you can tell by recent Mep postings, baseball season is just starting to really heat up. In honor of this weekend’s inaugural Yanks/Red Sox series, here’s a strange fan made video from the Star Wars Universe…

Chalk up another Emu victory versus the mass media censure machine. The Iron Man as Tin Man video has been restored to Youtube after TMR was declared the winner in a dispute versus Warner Music Group.

Here it is again, in all of its under appreciated majesty.

Here’s the last dispute (against MLB Advanced Media) that the Emu prevailed in.
