Happy Leap-Day!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

Happy Leap-Day! Today marks the first that Fluff has been around for.

So, in honor of that, here’s a quick list of ways to celebrate.

a) Do one more jumping-jack than usual. After all, what’s a leap-day without leaping?
2) Watch “Pirates of Penzance.” Trust me on this one.
iii) Write a petition for a leap-day-of-the-week, for every leap-year. It would be fun to have an extra day of weekend! (So, an 8-day week, once every four years.)

And that’s about what I have…

Anyway, enjoy this extra day of the year!

Lord of the Rings Parody Video Diary

Greetings, readers!

In continuation of yesterday’s post, and in part in honor of the film-making award ceremony tonight, I thought I would share with you the next link for the Hillywood Lord of the Rings Parody. This is the “video diary” of “Samwise Gamgee”, or, the actor who plays Sam in the parody video. It contains a little bit more of the actor’s perspective, and is worth watching.

Have a lovely Sunday!

Behind the Scenes for the Lord of the Rings Parody

Greetings, readers!

As the Webmaster shared (and I confirmed) yesterday, there is a very well done YouTube channel.

The Webmaster shared a video of their Lord of the Rings parody, set to the music of “Let it Go” from Frozen.

What she did not share, and one of the things I greatly appreciate about these performers, is that they have “behind-the-scenes” videos as well.

These do not necessarily go into as much detail as I might want, but it gives an interesting look into what goes on to make their videos. It is highly impressive.

Enjoy, and happy Saturday!

YouTubers I’m LOVING — Letting the LOTR Go…

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So, I recently discovered a YouTube channel. And I am loving (some of) their work. It’s called “the Hillywood Show”. It’s put together by two sisters. And they make musical “parodies” / tributes to some fantastic movies and shows. For example, they did one for The Lord of the Rings… set to the tune of “Let it Go” from Frozen. The two sisters play Frodo and Samwise. (They do not provide the voices. But, yeah.)

Wow. That is really impressive work!

I know, right?! Frozen fit so nicely with that!

I am not entirely sure you understand just how impressive that actually was, Webmaster.

You see, in addition to the lip-syncing being excellent, many of the camera shots used were identical to the original films. Furthermore, the acting involved in that is outstanding.

Oh, yeah! It absolutely is.

So, I’m going to be sharing more of their work on this blog as it seems appropriate. (And as I encounter things that I understand, that I think you’ll enjoy.)

Have a lovely weekend!

New CinemaSins for Monster’s University!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

CinemaSins released a new “Everything Wrong With” video a couple days ago. And it’s for Monster’s University!

And you can tell that Monster’s University actually did a pretty good job… many of the comments require lots of explanation to “justify” it as a sin.

Yup. Enjoy!

The upcoming release of Pete’s Dragon looks different.

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So. Disney is re-releasing a lot of its old classics. The one I most recently found out about is Pete’s Dragon. It was one of my favorites growing up. And there’s now a new version coming out this year. The trailer was released yesterday.

It looks very different.

I mean, seriously.

That is a totally different feel. Just look at their dragon, for one. The new one? Although the wings still probably wouldn’t work from a physics perspective, it’s not as adorable looking as the original Elliot’s pink wings.

And I didn’t see any signs of the over-the-top “happiest home in the hills” family either.

In all honesty, it looks a bit more like Jungle Book than Pete’s Dragon.

But it might still be an ok movie. I’m withholding judgement until closer to the release date.

Have a lovely week!
