Thanks for swinging in! Writing with a bunch of smart young people, we blog about the monkey business of life with tweens 8-15, and love anything shiny and new. Book/movie/game reviews, shopping, nom nom snacks, OMG news and issues, pop stars, and YouTube LOLs are fair game in this jungle.

YouTube LOLs: Tobuscus' Literal Movie Trailers

It's the last week of summer vacation, and what are my shiny monkeys watching?

YouTube videos. Don't judge.


They've been sharing their favorite Tobuscus videos - a guy named Toby who does "literal" translations of movie trailers, and has uploaded a few hundred pretty fast and funny videos of all shapes and sizes and levels of silliness.  Like eating candy, you don't want to watch too much of this guy or your tummy will hurt.  They are kid friendly, so roll away.

Check out this one Toby did for Harry Potter's movie trailer... some commenters have noted that they've taken YouTube channel worship to another level by memorizing the lyrics to this literal trailer. 


I gotta give him props for creativity.  And humor. And fast singing.
