A gritty reboot of the My Little Pony universe.

When it comes to mash-ups, as Quirk Books has proven, the best thing to do is cram together two things that completely don’t make sense together.  For example, Quirk’s biggest success was combining comedy of manners books from Jane Austen with zombie mayhem.  In that spirit comes Ponymen, a mash-up of My Little Pony with Watchmen that has somehow become my newest favorite viral video fake movie trailer.  Let’s watch it, shall we?

The editing on this video is stellar, isn’t it?  The way they make the pony mouths match up to the movie sound clips, the way they edited the pony actions together with what happens in the trailer of the movie, even the ponies chosen for various Watchmen… it’s just great.  BronyVids, the YouTube channel behind the fake trailer, have a lot more MLP mash-ups for your viewing pleasure.

Interestingly enough, the last good viral video fake trailer I saw was for another My Little Pony fake property in which My Little Pony is reinterpreted as a live-action film.  As we all remember, Watchmen (one of the greatest comics of all time) was made into a live-action film by Zach Snyder.

It seems like only a few years ago that Sylvester Stallone was mostly forgotten.  That seems to be changing in a hurry, as the aging action star has revitalized his career with a new hit franchise and revivals of his old familiar franchises.  Rambo came back, Rocky came back, and now it looks like Rocky’s […]

James Bond just cannot be stopped, except perhaps by himself.  Studio struggles almost killed Skyfall, but the movie turned out to be a huge hit when it was finished and audiences demanded more, as they have over 24 movies by now.  The rumored 24th Bond movie is making its first appearances online, and it’s pretty […]
