For what seems like years, I have had to pass on all links to videos, because I’m not patient enough to wait. Now I have high-speed internet, so tell me whats good on youtube. I’m also a fan of ebaums world, but I can’t find the videos of people doing stupid stuff like shooting roman candles at themselves. So far I’ve found parts 2-4 of Robot Chicken Star Wars. I’ve also found the Ballad of Bilbo Baggins (Leonard Nemoy). Most of what I find is pretty dull though. ---

Depends what kind of video you’re looking for, but my favorite is [this animal safari, Battle at Krueger](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU8DDYz68kM) ---

We’ve had a few threads relatively recently on favorite YouTube links. I’m fond of [George Washington](http://youtube.com/watch?v=PsymvcqVc1s), myself. Note: everything in this video is 100% true. ---

I rather enjoyed this satire of The Wizard of Oz. Be warned though! The entire thing is spread over 4 videos and they are all 8 to 9 minutes long. [No Place Like Home.](http://youtube.com/watch?v=aHV9TnvHo2A&feature=PlayList&p=43B3B406AD32DD00&index=0&playnext=1) If you click on the link, it will play all 4 videos in order on its own, FYI. ---

I love [this whole series](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av6fWfmugds) though you will probably be less enamored if you’re not a comic geek. ---

the maker of the documentary [DIY or DIE](http://www.stinkfight.com/2007/10/26/diy-or-die-entire-film-up-on-youtube/) put the entire DVD on YouTube. Interesting docu on independent artists, definitely worth a watch. ---

Don’t forget other sites. [Atom Films](http://www.atomfilms.com/home.jsp) is my favorite, they have some marvellous shorts in all genres there. Check out the Comedy section and SciFi/Horror, some of the stuff is brilliant. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/yay-i-have-fast-internet-whats-good-on-youtube/425105.md?page=2)
