And for those of you who are a little sick of all these memes, here's Alien in 30 seconds (and Re-enacted by Bunnies). Or you could go for a Gay Boyfriend. Unless you have to go to Soccer Practice, of course. Enjoy!

Woo! I've seen other 30 second reenactments by bunnies before, but not Alien, so that was cool. I've seen Gay Boyfriend a million times (MY boyfriend loves it), so THAT was cool. And I've listened to the song Soccer Practice a bunch of times but I'd never seen the video before, so THAT was also cool. :D

Glad you enjoyed my internet meanderings. :)

Which of the other 30 second reenactments have you seen? I think that there are 4 now: The Exorcist, The Shining, Titanic, and Alien. If you like, I can probably find links for any that you haven't seen yet.

Actually, it was about two weeks ago that I saw all of them EXCEPT for the Alien one. I don't think I'd seen any of them before. It was rather humorous. I feel I don't need to see Titanic now, because that reenactment did such a great job.

*while letting go* "I'll never let go!" :P

Thanks for the offer to hunt the links down, though. :D
