If you’ve seen the latest Disney animated movie “Frozen”, then you most likely have heard the Oscar Award winning song “Let It Go”. If you’re that guy/gal that’s jamming out to it on the freeway on your way to work every morning, then that’s a different story; we recommend you find help on that little issue as soon as possible. Anyway, this epic fail video will definitely entertain you whether you’ve seen Frozen or not, because it is just plain awesome. I don’t want to spoil it, so just watch it – as in right now.
Crazy Orange County Police Car Chase Video
While this is technically an “oldie” in terms of Internet viral videos, it was new to me so chances are it will be new to most of SQ Nation as well. Who doesn’t love a good car chase, especially one where the fleeing driver is evading Anaheim police in a freaking Kia Soul? Yes, you read that correctly: not a new Camero, nor a BMW M3 – a Kia Soul. You know, that tiny, toaster-shaped Kia SUV that annoyed the heck out of the entire world with that stupid commercial of the mice driving and jamming out to “Party Rock”? Yeah, I just got the chills thinking about it again too – sorry about that. Watch this video – it’s one of the best car chases not involving a white Bronco that I’ve ever seen, and the end features a nice surprise!

Portlandia Trail Blazers Post-Game Speech Video
Off the top of my head I probably have 5-10 television shows that I have always wanted to watch, but simply don’t have the time to actually sit on my fancy fake leather couch and take them in. Portlandia – an IFC comedy starring former SNL cast member and comedian Fred Armisen – is one of those shows. While I never thought Fred was the greatest SNL cast member – hey, I’m being honest – every trailer and commercial for Portlandia always made me laugh, and this Portlandia Trail Blazers post-game motivational speech video is no different. Enjoy the video – more slightly qualified Portlandia thoughts after the link!

Brian Williams Raps Gin and Juice Video
In case you missed The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last night, we’re here to bring you up to speed with possibly the funniest thing Brian Williams has ever done on television (okay technically this is just an epic montage, but you know what I mean). I have no idea how long this video took to compile – months? – but the end result, Brian Williams rapping the fabled “Gin and Juice”, is just simply awesomeness wrapped up into a 71 second funny video. Yes, he’s been great on his 30 Rock cameo appearances, but this Gin and Juice rap video now takes the cake – don’t pass this one up!
Poland Prepping for World War Three
Okay, so the post title for this video may have been slightly misleading, but you won’t be disappointed. Apparently America is not the only country with pyros, as I can confirm that Poland officially has at least four. Well, maybe only two if that one guy didn’t survive the back blast. More thoughts after the jump!
Cold In July Official Movie Trailer
Due in theaters in a little over a month on May 23rd, Cold In July looks like its going to be a thrilling winner. While a good trailer does not always equate to a good movie, all signs are pointing to high quality after I watched this excellent official trailer which was released just a few days ago. Most surprising however is that this film has a cast that is filled with relatively no-name actors, however there are a few faces that most of you will recognize. If you like suspense/thriller movies, then this trailer – and movie – is definitely for you! More after the jump below.
Weird Video of the Day: Raining Food
Just like a car wreck, there are videos out there on this glorious Interweb of ours that once you start watching, you just can’t seem to pull yourself away from it. It may not be the funniest video – heck you may not even enjoy it – but it sucks you in and just obliterates 1-3 minutes of your life that you may never get back. Well, I suppose you could if/when someone invents a time travelling machine – no, Marty’s DeLorean and flux capacitor do not count – but I wouldn’t hold your breath. Now if it starts raining food, then yes, I would hold your breath. Ladies and gentlemen, I now pronounce today’s first inaugural weird video of the day, Raining Food – clear your schedule for the next few minutes.
Video: You Can’t Reason With Babies
You can’t reason with babies – you just can’t. When it wakes up in the middle of the night screaming and wailing like a fire alarm, it simply is not going to stop until it gets what it wants: food, and/or attention from one or both of its parents. There is no arguing, no reasoning, and definitely no negotiation (until they start understanding what certain foods and or devices (TV) do), which is why this brand new funny video above is so … funny. You don’t have to be a parent to enjoy this one – we’ve all been around babies. Enjoy the video – hit the link below for more!
Ever Watch Someone Tear Apart A School Board Meeting? You Can Now
Just…Wow. It’s like…Man. They can only sit there and take it.
Here’s the context: About five years ago Common Core state standards came into existence, and one by one about every state in the US adopted them. Now, I’m a high school English teacher, so I can tell you first hand how this is affecting schools. Some teachers love them, some teachers hate them, but everybody is already sick of hearing the term “Common Core.” It has become a catch-basin term for wholesale rewriting of curriculum and, potentially, redesigning the school district personnel infrastructure.
Now, I’m not as up in arms over this as this student is, but I may be more vested. And if I was in this meeting, I’d be watching the body language of each and every school board member, because I know they’re going to owe the community a response on the heels of this verbal beat down.
Kicked in the Head by a Train Video
If you’ve got 11 seconds of free time before you head home from work or school today, then you need to watch this outstanding video of a guy who let his awesome haircut get a little too close to an oncoming freight train. You don’t have to be a genius or hold a PHD in physics to figure out how much force someone on a speeding freight train could kick someone standing off to the side with (hello concussion), but at least it’s entertaining! I think this pretty much sums up the whole “selfies have gone too far” case; a selfie in front of a speeding freaking freight train? Wow, cool idea man – yeah, go for it.
Crazy Dakine Extreme Mountain Biker GoPro Video
Before you watch this absolutely ridiculous extreme mountain biking video at a Dakine event, I would take a few deep breaths to prepare your lungs and stretch their capacity because you will guaranteed be holding it until this insane GoPro video is over. I swear I thought this guy was dead at least 100 times, so he must have known the course like his parent’s driveway, but seriously – this movie is insane. Many Internet videos claim to be “extreme videos”, but this one is no-kidding freaking extreme – some people are certifiably insane, but when they somehow manage to survive, it makes for awesome video footage that we all get to enjoy – if you call holding your breath for 3 minutes enjoyment – from the comfort of our fancy desk chairs. Just insane.

Korengal Kickstarter Trailer: Sebastian Junger Returns to Afghanistan
If you haven’t seen the excellent Afghanistan war (Operation Enduring Freedom) documentary Restrepo yet, then you absolutely need to as soon as humanly possible. Korengal, which comes straight from Restrepo’s award winning director Sebastian Junger’s camera, basically continues on where Restrepo left off, as he states its “the same men, the same valley, the same commanders, but a very different look at the experience of war.” (http://goo.gl/w4RXtG) With 44 days left until the Kickstarter ends, Mr. Junger still needs about $55,000 to reach his goal of $75,000, which he is utilizing to bring Restrepo – and the intimate war stories of not only this incredible US Army infantry platoon, but of every force that has fought in the Korengal and Afghanistan for that matter – to the big screen around the entire country. I am pumped for this film, as Restrepo ranks as #2 on my favorite OEF documentaries to date; find out what my number one – as well as more slightly qualified thoughts on Korengal, the movie and the valley – after the jump.
