AVENGERS ASEMBLE!

Avengers Assemble

With the upcoming release of The Marvel Comics Avengers movie it seems an appropriate time to mention the small web series kicking around YouTube based on the Avengers Superhero League called 'Avengers Assemble'.

Operating with a modest budget and and a slightly varied cast of Avengers members, I honestly don't think Wolverine was part of the Core Avengers Team this little series portrayed the normal everyday lives of the Avengers as they adjust to modern society. It's a cute little project even if it does leave a lot to be desired.

Baman? Baman!?

Mondo Media - Baman & Piderman

No this isn't a Typo this is adventures of Baman and Piderman. Mondo Media has produced one of the most hilariously stupid webseries I will probably ever see and I'm not ashamed to admit I love it to pieces.

I hate to describe what makes this so enjoyable, maybe its the sheer magnitude of the stupidity but the idea that Baman gets around by rolling everywhere and Piderman kinda just slinks around on the ground pulling himself along with his web sling is just down right hilarious to me. Their childish innocent voices probably factor in their somewhere too.

Shut your mouth Pussycat

Italian Spiderman

Italian Spiderman is just one of those things that belongs on the Internet, it just seems specially made for people to just watch and share with friends. This hilarious send up of Spiderman and the Italian movie culture is brilliant. This chain smoking, overweight moustached machismo lady killer re-imagining is outrageously funny. The whole idea was a joke on how foreign countries would misappropriate or misinterpret American Pop Culture.

Italian Spiderman has different powers then the normal Spiderman, for example he can Teleport, Summon Penguins, force chickens to lay eggs or cigarettes on command and has irresistible sex appeal that drives the ladies wild. All this was created with the idea in mind that this was a Long lost Italian film from the 1960s found in the wreckage of a sunken cargo ship.

Lights, Camera, Action Figures

Just Some Random guy
YouTube Channel: HERE

If I were to tell you one of the most popular users on YouTube was named ItsJustSomeRandomGuy, I guess you'd find it a little odd, nothing too extraordinary but a little odd. But what you'd find even more strange is the idea that pretty much all of his video content is him voicing over little skits between marvel and DC comic book characters using Action Figures you'd think the internet is populated by complete idiots. (Well it is but that's besides the point)

ItsJustSomeRandomGuy may act out funny little skits about Comic Book characters as he some how manages to run in some social commentary about the state of comic book movies in modern society but that isn't the only thing he does with action figures and the intellectual property of both Marvel and DC.

As First he started off making simple joke "I'm a Mac and I'm a PC" parodies using Superman and Spiderman in March of 2007.



Quickly the popularity of the videos grew and grew and JSRG had to churn out more and more clever Mac v. PC parodies but that wasn't enough.

Soon afterwards he created a Mini Series called After Hours where it showcased all the Marvel and DC characters interacting amongst each other in a fiction place called Stan's Bar discussing their movie deals and various other things. But what it evolved into was Superman having a personal crisis questioning his relevance in a World where they no longer look up to Superman because he's Perfect and unrelatable Super being... compared to more "Human" Heroes like Spiderman and Batman



Currently he is up to his 3rd little mini series called Zero Hour and it will do a number on you with its sheer complexity and scope. The idea of dimensional time travel and self awareness of their comic book universe compared to reality is just over whelming. JSRG's writing gets more complex, insightful and intelligent with each upload and I hope he somehow end up being able to publish his works in a more lucrative and more appealing medium then just acting them out with Action Figures. Hell if he was somehow able to get Marvel and DC and the other involved comics involved to agree to a DVD release that would Unworldly Awesome.
