You’ve just got to give him a break, crimefighting can take a lot out of you. Although I would think recognizing faces is an important part of being the “world’s greatest detective” and all that. Anyway, College Humor has done it again and made a high production-value parody of The Dark Knight that’s also funny. Speaking of the Dark Knight, how many of you went to go see The Dark Knight Rises already? If not, I bet you’ve got some plans this weekend.
College Humor is at it again. Some of you might recall their Game of Thrones video game parody from last year. This time they’ve given the 11th Doctor and crew a 16-bit JRPG makeover. The video follows the fifth and sixth seasons of Doctor Who, so if you haven’t been keeping up you’ll be in for some spoilers — that said, they don’t actually do a great job of summarizing the series, not that they ever intended to. Just try to appreciate the cute references, like the group squaring off against a Weeping Angel with the only commands available being “blink” or “don’t blink.” The soundtrack is a real treat, though.
All tongue-in-cheek of course. College Humor joined together with a large list of TV celebs from your favorite shows like True Blood, Walking Dead, The Wire, and Dexter. Normally I’m not too big a fan of CH’s videos, but this one keeps it simple and delivers. The actual rules listed for spoilers actually aren’t too bad either, but let’s face it, we’re not going to get everyone to agree. Especially when someone so badly wants to tell you about whatever last episode they watched, but you’re not caught up yet. It’s just going to happen.
