Redubbed Video Clips

Changing the voices of well known movies or TV stars can be absurdly funny (and let’s not forget how much these owe to Woody Allen’s What’s Up Tiger Lily?). It can also be a devastating satire. For instance, this little clip sums up just about everything wrong with The Lord Of The Rings (if only it could have added the annoying Smeagol to the mix).

This one is a little clunky and could do with a re-edit, but it uses the well known voice of James Earl Jones from his ‘other’ movies - to (usually) funny results…

Chances are you’ve been told about - or been forwarded - some of these epic GI Joe voiceover clips. They regularly make “best things on the web” lists, and really - they make the ideal internet fodder and always good for a laugh. We’re proud to provide a stable point where you can find these gems quickly for a regular laughing dose.

In the 1980s there was a series of GI Joe ’safety message’ cartoons that accompanied the full length cartoon, figurines, computer game, et al. We don’t know if they were made available online, or the format just especially suited the nameless geniuses that created them (if it was you, give us a shout! We’d be happy to give you a mention and a thankyou). The basic logic of these GI Joe clips can be seen in the later parodies: kids do something stupid, a strange man in a costume saves them, said strange man gives them a safety lecture, then cut to the logo and normal programming. In these remixed parody clips, the full absurdity of the scenarios and characters are played out.

“Last one there is a penis pump” - “Help Computer” - “Are you Buzz Lightyear?” - “Body Massage”. There are many favorite lines - let us know yours. And let us know if you have any other favorite examples voice over mischief, it’s a noble and timeless source of laughs. Enjoy the clips.
