Ahh! This is kind of loud, so headphones up!:
Oddly enough, this is the least creepy video of a creature wearing a mask that we’ve ever featured on Videogum.

'Sup, pogs!
Let's all go to the movies, and let's all see the same movie, and let's discuss it here.
Gabe loves fan fiction. You Can Make It Up features his own personal alternate adventures starring some of our favorite characters.
After watching Death Sentence, a terrible movie starring Kevin Bacon as a father in search of vigilante justice directed by Saw's James Wan, Gabe embarked on The Hunt For The Worst Movie of All Time. This is his sad journey.
All I can say about this is that Japanese TV has so many more crazy/awesome shows than the U.S.
So, why does every Japanese TV show clip seen on the internet feature superimposed video of people reacting to what is on the screen? Who are these people in their little corner boxes, and why are they watching? Is every show a game show? Is it like the Japanese equivalent of a laughtrack or something?
I don’t really have an answer, nor have I really thought about it (I’m no Japanologist, duh) but if the choice is between a plethora of bizarre game shows (and some actual cool ones like Ninja Warrior) and crap like The Hills, Real Housewives of wherever, 2 1/2 Men, etc etc then I’ll opt for the more WTF Japanese programming 9 times out of 10.
I agree! I am not criticizing! I just really wonder about those little boxes….it keeps me awake at night sometimes.

that primate is so meta
and we all thought ‘lost in translation’ was an exaggeration….
i went to the zoo a few months ago and there was this orangutan vomiting a fountain of puke and then slurping it up, over and over again. it seemed genuinely amused by the disgusted reactions it was getting from humans on the other side of the glass, like a little orange frat boy.
I think this is the same game show responsible for The Best Video on the Internet (TM)
