This year marks two important pop-culture milestones: The 40th anniversary of Star Wars and the 50th anniversary of The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. To celebrate these momentous occasions cool geeks Jude and Dan, aka Palette-Swap Ninja, have created a musical mashup entitled Princess Leia’s Stolen Death Star Plans. Over five years in the making the album is a celebration of both entities that melds them together to create something familiar but wonderfully original.

66 (Old) Movie Dance Scenes Mashup
There have been a lot of impressive supercuts put up on Vimeo and YouTube lately and I love looking through them, the idea of getting something already created and editing it and altering it to create something new just appeals to me. Well here is another one and this one is a real doozy! Nerd Fest UK has created a mashup of 66 old movie scenes set to the track Uptown Fun and the result is wonderful. In their own words:
My inspiration came from What's the Mashup? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmnSm...) but I didn't manage 100! The idea was to do the same for movies from the Golden Age – meaning no title later than 1953 (although there is one at the end.) Oh, and none of these clips was sped up or slowed down.
So, sit back and enjoy this wonderful slice of nostalgia and maybe discover a new film to purchase and support the cause of film preservation!
Hell's Club- Where Film Icons Meet
I like me a mashup; taking lots of examples of one media type and fusing it to create something quite new and original from the old. Antonio Maria Da Silva (AMDSFilms to his friends) has taken this idea and run with it to create the ultimate film mashup of iconic film characters. In his own words:
There is a place where all fictional characters meet. . . Outside of time, Outside of all logic, This place is known as HELL'S CLUB, But this club is not safe
TERMINATOR VERSUS TONY MONTANA VERSUS TOM CRUISE VERSUS CARLITO BRIGANTE VERSUS BLADE VERSUS JOHN TRAVOLTA VERSUS AL PACINO VERSUS PINHEAD VERSUS THE MASK VERSUS ROBOCOP VERSUS DARTH VADER VERSUS MICHAEL JACKSON.
This is one awesome edit and deserves to be seen by as many people as possible. Spread the word!
