I feel like I've already seen this movie. Or listened to it.

I feel like I've already seen this movie. Or listened to it.
Do you think that when Buzz Aldrin was in space all those years ago, he ever thought that 40 years later, he'd be referred to as "gangsta" in a viral video? Because I'm pretty sure the answer is no.
After the jump: The "Rocket Experience" video.

This is funny, but I'm still partial to the Blue Man Group story line on Arrested Development.
Fred Willard appears on Funny Or Die as a doctor who prescribes liberal doses of common sense.
I'm with him on the ginger ale and crackers cure-all theory.
What, no explosions? I thought every Michael Bay movie had some sort of pyrotechnic display. It's in the contract.
Holy smokes, if only this were a real movie. It's got more attitude and atmosphere than 90% of the horror flicks out there and I would LOVE to see Christopher Lloyd for 90 minutes go into full homicidal psychosis.
Alas, it's only a spoof. But a darn good one. Just imagine the potential...
Jon Hamm from Mad Men was hilarious when he appeared on Saturday Night Live. He's still hilarious as Superman arch-nemesis Lex Luthor begging for a bailout package for LexCorp.
Hey, did you hear that we're getting a new president soon? Will Ferrell dusts off his W. impression to pay tribute to the guy who's leaving, with a farewell tour that starts Jan. 20. Also known as Inauguration Day.
In her latest round of vidoes, here's Natalie Portman in bed with a bunch of chicks.
This clip takes an unexpected turn -- for the awesome.
I remember having to watch videos like this when I got hired for crap jobs in high school and college (no jokes about my current job). The ones involving the forklift were particularly awesome.
But this insurance accident video, "It Only Takes a Second," is on another level. Witness a man mercilessly crushed in some massive industrial machine. Hands are sliced. A guy eats gravel after being hit by a car. A chick has an eyepatch (?). And the best of all: EXPLODING CARS.
Because, you know, it only takes a second... for your Ford Pinto to burst into flames, leaving your charred body behind and no way to identify your corpse save for dental records. OK, maybe that's a stretch from what this video is showing, but not that much of a stretch.
Do you know why people would sign up for this? One degree of separation from Kevin Bacon, that's why.
Here's why I wouldn't sign up for it: Four months ago I received my first movie from NetFlix, and it's still sitting on my kitchen counter. I still haven't watched it. I really should just send it back.
Get a glimpse at what it'd look like if the Andy Griffith Show and Happy Days kept running on air for 40, 30 years. It's hilariously scary.
Gotta hand it to Ron Howard, this video is a pretty genius way to get the elderly to vote for their candidate of choice. Matlock told me to vote for Obama!
As Natalie Portman and Rashida Jones remind us, the global economic crisis has an impact on all of us.
The best course of action? PUPPIES!
Goodness, people online can be mean. There seems to be a running theme in the list of questions that may not be safe for work, so um, headphones warning.
Best part: "Thought bubble."
If this guy is willing to dress up his dogs in Star Wars costumes, just imagine what he would do to his children.
These brief but very important messages are pretty off-beat hilarious. I think it's the gravelly voice and Joker's nonchalance.
Apparently, it involves a lot of yelling and explosions. They get sort of close.
This video does two good things.
1) It features Jack McBrayer, better known for his work on "30 Rock" and in a Mariah Carey video.
2) It links to an effort to raise money for cancer research.
Public service announcements should all be this entertaining:
True story: When I was a kid, I really wanted to go to Space Camp. I even read the book version of the movie "Space Camp," which I bought at my school book fair. (I never saw the movie "Space Camp," oddly enough.)
After watching this clip, I think I was lucky to never fulfill my Space Camp destiny.
They can't train you for this in journalism school:
Funny in a sort-of creepy man-crush way:
This screams second opinion.
I was never very good at this game, either. Thankfully, there never was physical pain in conjunction with my losses -- just emotional.
Today's lesson: Actors sniff jackets.
Is this what happens when I leave my son alone with my husband?
No, we didn't forget Mother's Day, either. In fact, I got the best gift of all -- a nap.
If you're one of those who did forget, get up and go to the mall and get some chocolates or a gift card. Pronto. You've got like four hours.
But first, watch this clip:
James Franco of Spider-Man fame has a web series where he gives acting tips, along with his brother Dave.
In this installment, James gives tips on acting in front of a green screen, where anything can come at you -- dinosaurs, socks, bottles. You have to be ready.
I don't know if this counts as fashion roadkill, but it does seem like quite a bummer to end the show.
Here's one question I had: Why didn't anyone sitting right there next to the stage get up to help her? And another: When the other guy fell through the runway, did he fall on the woman who already fell through the runway? Because then that would truly add insult to injury.
If only everyone did their work with half the enthusiasm this guy shows. I imagine the days would go much faster.
This Funny or Die clip, featuring Willem Dafoe, Andy Richter and Will Ferrell, teaches us two important lessons: The potential hazards of elective surgery, and why it's not good to have one song stuck in your head all day, every day.
The most surreal show on television that isn't on public access is the Cartoon Network's "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" You can catch the sketch comedy show well after midnight on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.
The best part: John C. Reilly's bits as Dr. Steve Brule. In this clip, he teaches you how to defend yourself.
Rapper MC Lyte reminds us that we need to put our clocks ahead one hour this Sunday.
Which brings this question to mind: What does Flavor Flav, another rapper and reality show star (best known for his work in Public Enemy and for wearing large clocks around his neck), do on this day? Just hire additional help to reset his massive collection of decorative clocks?
I'm just saying.
This looks like a must-see. If the movie is half as good as the preview, it's a surefire nominee for a Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar next year. Maybe even best picture.
Fergie takes on a spelling bee and turns it g-l-a-m-o-r-o-u-s.
Apparently Jerry O'Connell is making a hobby out of shooting parodies of viral videos.
Remember the Australian kid who had a party/riot at his parents' house while they were out of town? Jerry and wife Rebecca Romjin mark the end of the writer's strike with their take on that infamous video:
It's probably too late for Danforth France to earn a role in the upcoming Indiana Jones flick, so the least I can do for him is put his audition tape on our blog. Danforth, if you get an agent because of us, we want a finder's fee. Get your people in touch with our people.
Make sure to have the proper high heels and leg warmers before starting this workout:
You know you've got at least one relative like this.
I love how the phone cord stretches throughout the house. I guess a cordless phone isn't as funny?
Something tells me that Jerry won't be invited to the Cruises to relive their finer moments from "Jerry Maguire." Funny stuff, though.
And joy = Zach frolicking on the beach in a dress. Priceless.
We like this stuff. We think about it. And we show you our favorites.
