This Is Not a Gangnam Style Video (Technically)
Okay. When Peter D. passed me this Funny or Die “Gungan Style” music video, I was really going to post it just to be a belligerent asshole. But let me assure you it is not really a “Gangnam Style” video. Well it is, but it stops being a “Gangnam Style” video before two minutes are up, and turns into something brilliant and wonderful and something that doesn’t a PSY impression in any way. I know I’ve been “The Boy who Cried This Is a Really Good Gangnam Style Video, Really!” so I can’t blame you if you won’t give it a try. All I can say if you only watch one, it should be this one. Even moreso than the Big Trouble in Little China one.
