https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2YDXZftmfQ — "Top Gun"-style ad from WOW Air.
And now I can't help but wonder about a "Top Gun"-style Airbus-v-Boeing movie.

Kinda recall a short flight sim movie that did just that.

This is Tex Johnson flying, but it might as well be Tex Avery. Wish the picture were clearer, but that was state of the art back then.

Well, it was 1955, after all.

Lies of Heroism – Redefining the Anti-War Film
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf0G2MPBEYM
Not only about anti-war films. There's only a short slippery slope separating heroes from irredeemable villains.
In their own eyes, there are no villains. Nazi thought themselves heroic saviors too.
Very actual. Very chilling .

In one of Sergei Lukyanenko's book series humanity finally met another sophont species - a rare, rare thing, one per many galaxies. The aliens were nice guys, very peaceful... Until they contacted our culture and got poisoned by our glorification of war. Then there was a total war between humans and those aliens -- with no stopping in sight because their culture, now twisted by ours, was telling them there is nothing more noble and cool than war.

One I fave'd a long while ago, but is popping up in my YouTube homepage quite often again nowadays: Avast Fluttershy's Ass - 20% Cooler Yay Equaliser Edition. And yes, it's SFW in case anyone was wondering.

Tho I must say it's not so much the video as it is the music (and the intro and outro speeches :P)

And for the ones wanting a more visual video of something else: Playing Beat Saber on the sounds of You Spin Me Round. Looks like a good workout.

Hehe, weird but not bad.

Damn, that's a difficult one. And those reflexes, wow. Such a good score like that. My friend is also a bit of a fan of the game, so i know it's not nearly as easy as it looks(and that one doesn't even look easy, lol).

I always liked this video he linked before he got it:

And wow, the one you linked to, damn they do a lot of fun vids!

Well... color me impressed about the variations. Don't know the game, don't have it, never played it, but in terms of a workout it seems to be able to get the job done depending on the songs you select :P

If you do not know it already, the Concorde is 1) loud, 2) loud and 3) loud. I mean, you think that the neighbour's teen son's motorbike is loud, but that's just a mousepeep to the Concorde.

My friend really likes it. And with how the options and difficulty levels ranges from "half asleep" to "you need supernatural reflexes to get past this", it's probably guaranteed that you can find a level suitable for you.

If not for my issues with VR, i would have gotten it years ago.
