Web videos spring up every few seconds, only a small handful are of any worth. I have selected a small (well maybe not exactly small) collection of web videos that I really enjoyed. I hope you like them too. This isn’t a “favorite Youtube video” thread, mostly because I find Youtube to be overloaded with crap. Anyways, here is my list of recent favorites, many you have seen, hopefully some you have not. Please add a link to anything I missed, or you found really funny. I know that some of these are old, but that doesn’t make them not funny. I am disabling the links because a few of these contain NSFW language, there is no porn here. Have fun with this list.

Wow, I usually don’t participate in these threads because I don’t really believe anyone reads past the first few posts, just posts their own list of likes. That is, unless I can get in on those first few. But the length of the OP makes me wonder if he hasn’t already taken care of that. 😛 Here’s mine; First, a couple World of Warcraft videos (machinima); [Zinwrath](http://www.myndflame.com/index.php?categoryid=3&p803_shownum=10&p803_sectionid=3) the whole series by Myndflame productions is good, but the first Zinwrath movie, and the Illegal Danish movie are the best (they’re both under 10 minutes, IIRC). Expect absurdist comedy, and jarring scene cuts. [The Return](http://www.rufuscubed.com/return/episodes.shtml) awesome dramatic video, I am eagerly awaiting the rest of the series. Very emotional intro. Now two more oddball ones: [Daicon IV promo](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJRzLKdLAXc&mode=related&search=) back before they were Gainax, some of Japan’s best animation people were working in a small group making little opening/promo shorts for a major sci-fi/anime/geek convention in Japan, among other things. This one video (set to the song Twilight by Electric Light Orchestra) starts with a recap of the video for Daicon III, then goes into a kind of sequel video that cameos all kinds of American and Japanese cartoon, comic book, fantasy, and sci-fi characters/ships/themes. It’s an enduring favorite among dedicated anime geeks, though there’s no official release of it because of the ridiculous license wrangling that would have to take place. This next one is NSFW, so I broke the link by placing spaces between “/” and “verify”. You have been warned! You will also not be taken directly to the video, but youtube’s age-check screen (just log in and you’re good). [http://www.youtube.com/](http://www.youtube.com/) verify\_age?next\_url=/watch%3Fv%3DgrGrN\_nuWg8 “Do you take it” by the wet spots. Very hilarious pervy video and song I found the other night. Sadly no one responded to the thread I made to post a link here. ---

I could watch videos of Victor Wooten’s performances for hours. No specific link, just search for them on youtube. Second best bassist ever, hands down. Paul McCartney will always be my pick for first best bassist ever, not out of any technical skill but because of how immaculately, perfectly, ingeniously his bass lines _fit_ with the Beatles’ melodies. But as a true technical virtuoso and showman, Wooten is the king of bass. ---
