That was truly awesome, but I don't think any of those fools could take on Kim Jong Il's bodyguards!

It worked for me a minute ago, copying and pasting the link. It might be that too many people are trying to watch it at once.

Memepool also included this ad, perhaps the penultimate showdown.

Neil Cicierega has done plenty of fine Flash before the Ultimate Showdown.

Mr Rogers (in his blood-stained sweater) may prevail, and Chuck Norris gets his come-uppance!

What a great thing (I'm not sure what one should call this kind of art). The subtitles sure made this better for me - with music lyrics becoming harder to decipher each year than the last.

Two Chuck Norris posts this week from EK. What's in the DC water?

The second chuck Norris post possibly came because of comments from the first. I was wondering why the Chuck Norris as religion meme was playing out so soon after I'd seen his part in this flash movie/mp3 as well...

I haven't seen that SNL bit by the Lonely Island guys, but it's worth digging up their older stuff (The 'Bu is quite good) from Channel 101.

I personally had money as David Cross as Tobias Funke as a Blue Man Group standby.

I think that there's a better version than the NewGrounds one. It has a bigger screen and no ad material to wade through.

I was browsing around at newgrounds and saw 'Prowlies at the River', which is frankly ludicrously high quality and a beauty to watch.
