First off, the one with the SSC toys. Or rather, somewhat creepy renderings of SSC herself, and either a clone of her or another character altogether. (I'm quite rusty on SSC lore Tongue ) It's also shared with some random flying toys for some reason.

Secondly, it's the Crash Bandicoot Side of Life. Nowhere near as creepy as the SSC renderings above. Crash himself looks okay, but Neo Cortex? His face looks far too realistic in comparison to his normally cartoony appearance in the games.

Third, the infamous Sonic Games commercial. This particular commercial got the most attention with YTP creators. The animation is cheap, as expected. Sonic looks a little off, but the other characters do look rather decent. The small bit Sonic fans point out the most is the Pakistani narrator calls the character Rouge as "Row-guh", as in "going Rogue" and not the French pronunciation of Red. I think this has more to do with the narrator simply not knowing English phrases that well. The best part? These Sonic LCD games got a North American release and can be found on eBay. Good luck replacing the battery as you'll need to have a tri-wing screwdriver on hand.

Fourth is the Hello Kitty commercial. And no, she is not saying "I am a little boy" at the end. It's a mondegreen, and "boy" is actually "Queen". The thick accent muddles the English words quite a bit. Other than that mondegreen and Hello Kitty's creepy smile, it's a fairly standard Happy Meal ad.

Fifth is for a Play-Doh Happy Meal, with some surprisingly good English in some parts. Nothing too special here.

Sixth is for some toys called, confusingly, Crash Gear. No relation to the Crash Bandicoot universe, but these appear to be just generic action vehicles. All but one have fairly generic names, but the last vehicle is called "Kingschwarz". Eh, what? Is a King name Schwarz driving that thing?

Seventh is another ad featuring Hello Kitty. Very little animation in this one, but was that Grimace jumpscare at 0:26 necessary? Tongue

The final ad is for McDonaldland Character bobble toys. Birdie is definitely on something here, and she and her other McDonaldland friends are now aliens. Just run with it.

'Tis such a sad loss for the music industry, as the lead vocalist for the Andrews Sisters passed away just recently:

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://movies.yahoo.com/news/patty-andrews-andrews-sisters-dead-94-221121755.html">http://movies.yahoo.com/news/patty-andr ... 21755.html</a><!-- m -->

Quote:LOS ANGELES (AP) — Patty Andrews, the last surviving member of the singing Andrews Sisters trio whose hits such as the rollicking "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B" and the poignant "I Can Dream, Can't I?" captured the home-front spirit of World War II, died Wednesday. She was 94.

Andrews died of natural causes at her home in the Los Angeles suburb of Northridge, said family spokesman Alan Eichler in a statement.

Patty was the Andrews in the middle, the lead singer and chief clown, whose raucous jitterbugging delighted American servicemen abroad and audiences at home.

She could also deliver sentimental ballads like "I'll Be with You in Apple Blossom Time" with a sincerity that caused hardened GIs far from home to weep.

"When I was a kid, I only had two records and one of them was the Andrews Sisters. They were remarkable. Their sound, so pure," said Bette Midler, who had a hit cover of "Bugle Boy" in 1973. "Everything they did for our nation was more than we could have asked for. This is the last of the trio, and I hope the trumpets ushering (Patty) into heaven with her sisters are playing "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy."

Can someone help me identify from which anime/movie the scene is from? Judging from the style, it's probably pretty old. Other than that, I have no idea at all. Thanks in advance.


EDIT: Found out that it's an anime named Gene Diver.]]>
