The Lamborghini Countach was an Italian “supercar” produced from 1974-1990. Sports Car International placed it #3 on their list of Top Sports Cars of the 1970s, and it clocked in at #10 on their Top Sports Cars of the 1980s list, but somewhere around 1984 it became #1 in every American boy’s heart.

I love it when a mashup comes together. As far as sci-fi juggernaut + 80s TV theme mashups go, this Avengers + The A-Team intro is as good as (if not better than) the Star Wars/Magnum P.I. one from 2009 (Han Solo, P.I.) Can somebody get on a Thor/Fall Guy for me? What other good […]

The video for A-Trak (1/3 of the trio behind one of my favorite songs of 2012) & Tommy Trash’s “Tuna Melt”  is directed by Ryan Staake, but what I want to know is who is the camera operator […]
