Looking for some fun this weekend? I’ve got just the thing.. I happened to find this post on Wired’s Table of Malcontents and had to share. It’s a collection of Big Lebowski Mashups. Not familiar with a Mashup? It’s a creature of the new Web 2.0′s information sharing, where two seperate types of content are combined to form a new one (Wikipedia definition).
In this particular case, it’s a list of cartoons or other videos that have been edited with the Big Lebowski soundtrack. If your familiar with the film, you’ll probably know that this is not safe for work if you don’t have headphones.. the vulgarities are plenty — and I’m not talking about what happens when you find a stranger in the alps.
I had no idea there were so many Big Lebowski mash-ups lurking out there on the Web, but a few intimate moments with YouTube have corrected my ignorance. A number of people have taken various animated icons, opened up their adorable little throats, and shoved the profane words of the movie's characters right in there. We've got Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, He-Man, Eiken, My Little Pony, Rocko's Modern Life, Monsters Inc., and someone's homemade bunny version.
And for those who find all this animation childish, there's the version edited down to a single swear word, repeated over and over.
Enjoy!
