After loads of encouragement from people online to make another tribute video, some friends and I finally took some extra time this weekend to do just that.
You may (or may not) remember the first video we ever did was called A Tribute to the Handshake in Predator... Unexpectedly, people have been viewing and telling us how much they enjoy our simple idea. In our video, we take a popular scene from a well-known film and re-shoot it. (also known as "Sweding," the term comes from the film Be Kind, Rewind. We actually came up with the idea on our own, long before the first trailer for Be Kind, Rewind was even shown in theaters.) The first video, which we shot and posted last August, has been getting LOADS of attention on Youtube and we have been getting requests to do a new one from the get go.
The original idea came from an IM conversation that I had with my friend Matt. During our conversation, I suggested that it would be hilarious if we took a scene from Predator and re-shot the whole thing, leaving only the original dialog, and one specific shot. Initially we only did it for our own enjoyment. But slowly more and more people seemed to find our little video on Youtube and watch it in growing numbers. It even got to the point where folks were constantly asking for more. That is why, Matt and I finally got together and made a new one.
As our last one paid tribute to Predator, our new one pays tribute to an equally iconic film, Pulp Fiction. More specifically, we recreated a portion of "the Bonnie Situation" scene and called it "Divine Intervention." I hope you enjoy it, just as much as our first video. Watch and leave comments if you will...
