Streets of Fury
If you have a soft spot for retro video games and the 8-bit aesthetic, you're
going to have a great time with Streets Of Fury. In this entertaining video
from Irish filmmaker
Aiden McAteer,
the bandana-sporting hero of a beat-'em-up game finds an unlikely ally. The
retro-styling is perfect- right down to the music.

Poké Blinders
In another of their unlikely but inspired mash-ups, Mashed bring together
the
BBC period crime drama Peaky Blinders and Pokémon to create
Poké Blinders. You've never seen Team Rocket quite like this before!
Cas Mini Recaps
The brilliant Cas Van De Pol has embraced YouTube's new shorts format (the
site's effort to compete with TikTok) using it to create mini-recaps.
Despite their brief running time, they've got more great gags packed in than
lesser talents can manage in something many times their length. The first
two cover Luca and Encanto.
Real Man
What makes a man a 'real man?'. According to this odd little music video
from
asdfmovie creator
TomSka, being a skateboarding cow. And what day can't be improved by a
skateboarding cow? This video was directed by Tomska and
Eddie Bowley
animated by
Wonchop,
with additional animation by
Mr Weebl.
The music and vocals come via
Todd ‘LilDeuceDeuce’ Bryanton.
The Best Day Of My Life | Tom Odell
There's something captivating, almost hypnotic about this music video for
the track Best Day of My Life by British singer/-songwriter
Tom Odell. Nexus Studio's video focuses on a single figure and
the actual animation is pretty limited. So why can't we stop watching?
