I'm real happy for you, Imma let you finish but The Dark Knight had the best trailer mash-ups of all time!
Someone mashed-up the sound of the Immortals movie trailer and the video from Space Jam and made what is likely to be the best video anyone will see all week. It is shocking -- shocking, I say -- how well this fits together. Now I'm afraid when I finally go see Immortals, I'm going to be crushed when Theseus doesn't end the war by dunking on Hyperion.

Since seeing it, I've enjoyed seeing TheLastStarfighter's nick and profile pic but never commented on it.
Then s/he posts this and EVERYTHING makes sense now. The clarity is amazing -- it's full of stars!
IOW/tl,dr: Love the nick and pic, ESPECIALLY with your comment. +10.
Mostly just that it would appear that you view Space Jam, The Last Starfighter, AND MLP:FiM as guilty pleasures. That, and I agree with you on all points, but I'm no Brony. #yesrly
I liked Immortals. I mean sure some of the characters were cardboard cutouts but the effects were great and isn't that the whole point of seeing a movie like this?
And one other thing, almost everyone I talk to about this movie complain about how the Greek myths were displayed but therein lies the flaw in their logic. They are myths and are open for interpretation. That's like if I saw a dragon in real life but it didn't have a tail so I complain that its not a real dragon, but what exactly is a real dragon?
I'd love to see the newspaper headline for that "Mythical Creature finally discovered; Nerd complains it is not screen accurate"...
Remember working at a movie theater when "Space Jam" came out and every time they had Yosimote Sam and Elmer Fudd in the Pulp Fiction clothes and music, the place just came apart with laughter.
I should mention it was a Chicago theater so they were automatically a bit more partial.
Remember when that slow-motion action thing was all the rage? When was that? What year did The Matrix come out? Yea, it was then. And it looks very 'then' every time I see it in a movie like Immortals. Yea, we get it. Bullet-time. Moving on...
Fuck man, the Greek Myths were EPIC for a reason. You'd think even Hollywood couldn't fuck them up too bad. Then... Immortals. This Space Jam mashup is sooo much more satisfying.
God damn. I forgot how cool the aliens were when they stole everybody's skills. Space Jam rocked.
Indeed it did. Such a fun movie. Lots of great celebrity cameos, too. (Eg, Bill Murray)
The mashup is pretty good.I liked Immortals, but it was really just awesome action.And the titans... what? I think i need to review my myths because that made no sense to me.
Yeah, Immortals is kinda like what you would get if Wizards of the Coast decided to make a Hellenic fantasy setting, but with Disney's Hercules as their only source material, and that only for the gods.
Which is not to say it wasn't awesome. It was, just really weird.
Nothing against this video (it was good), but just an hour or so ago I found a really good fake trailer mash-up I liked even better:

Just because, well, yeah... party like the internet is still in 1995.
Geocities FTW! I always remember my local Warner Brothers Store being a lot like the Disney store- lots of cool stuff, can't afford to buy anything.
Very fun movie, the hate always comes from those who claim it lacked story. Seriously did you really expect a stunning narrative from a movie like this? Sometimes movies are just made to entertain, story be damned lol. This movie entertained.
I think I might enjoy the reversed mash-up more, insofar as the trailer for the Immortals could be made a lot better if the inspiring song crooned by R. "Pee-dophile" Kelly, "I Believe I Can Fly" was playing in the background.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...I see your Space Jam Immortals and raise you one Space Jam Gurren Lagann. It's frightening(/incredibly awesome) how well the songs sync.
Good stuff. Hate Immortals, loved Space Jam when I was a kid, gotta get it on DVD. Daffy Duck FTW!!!
DO. NOT. SEE. IMMORTALS!
I wanted my $12 back =( I will admit, the "fight" scenes where pretty cool, but my god the movie was horrible.
