Good morning!

This, for those of you who haven't already heard it, is FX's definitely SFW dub of Samuel L. Jackson's classic line:

6 Characters You Didn't Know Were Shameless Ripoffs

Oink, oink! I'm a sneezy pig! God, I'm a terrible person. *headsmack*

Wow. I mean... wow.

When did the snakes fight monkeys?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

... you just found a way that movie could have been even more amazing, I think.

[fortuna-juvat.livejournal.com]

It follows the sequel formula: the hero and villain have to team up to fight a greater evil.

The greater evil in this case being monkeys.

In the third movie, the snakes could have turned to piracy, while the defeated monkeys have slunk off to train to be ninjas and exact revenge.

Pirate snakes vs. ninja monkeys. On a plane.

Oh, TV dubbing. Why so ridiculous?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

I adore TV dubbing the more ridiculous they make it. Like, yeah, we already know that's not what the guy's in the movie you're airing isn't saying that, go wild!

What amuses me most of all is that I can only assume from watching that clip that they filmed Samuel L. Jackson actually saying that phrase precisely so they could air it that way on TV.

The sillier TV swearing dubs are the better, and that one is sheer genius. What the hell is a Monday to Friday plane, anyway?

I have a particular fondness for John McClane's famous line from the TV version of Die Hard: "yippie-ki-yay, melon farmer!"

Kimba! Kimba was one of my favourite things ever when I was little.

(I have yet to work out what a dub of an obscure Japanese cartoon was doing in a South London video rental store, but never mind that.)

Say what you will about tv editing - there's no more creative art in the world. And it does bring the lulz.

LOL

That's almost as good as the dubbing of "motherfucker" as "monster joker" (witnessed by a friend).

Still solidly beaten by "You see what happens when you find a stranger in the alps!"

[fakymcfakerson.livejournal.com]

Geez, what's that from? Is it supposed to be "fuck a stranger in the ass"?

[spyderqueen.livejournal.com]

From the Big Lebowski dub-over. And yes, it's supposed to be "fuck a stranger in the ass"

Oh, good lord. I should have known that. Thank you. :)
