Hail to the Pilgrim, Baby
You may think you don’t want to see a mash-up of the Scott Pilgrim movie and the recent, belligerently awesome Duke Nukem Forever trailer, but you do. You really, really do. And then you probably want to watch the actual DNF trailer again, because it was that good. Two things to note, if only so a hundred people don’t post it in the comments: 1) the likely genesis for this vid was that both the DNF and SP trailer both used The Prodigy’s “Invaders Must Die” as the soundtrack, and 2) if Michael Cera actually had Duke Nukem’s voice, wouldn’t he be totally awesome?
