Fascinating assortment of vintage "All About Town" recordings, particuarly from an uploader named "guy jones", all speed adjusted, and sometimes coloured with ambient sound. An improvement over all those speedy, herky-jerky B&Ws we're all so used to. Certainly manages to reconfigure one's perceptions of the past.

Pro Football games from the 60s and 70s, back when it was Professional and real, not rigged like Pro Wrestling.
Seriously, I really dig watching the old games with the Packers, Cowboys, Steelers (esp when they won against the Raiders - 1972, TIR - yeah, you know Franco caught it in the air, not on the hop)!
Rare are some of the great AFL games, esp the old Broncos brown-and-gold unis!

Matte paintings on the original Star Wars trilogy,excellent craftsmanship. I've watched this a few times.
Thanks, love this kind of stuff. Its funny, sometimes the matte painting are very obvious and I can pick them out. Other times I'm blown away because I was totally fooled by the illusion.
I do wish they went into more details behind the 'art" of matte paintings. Its my understanding they don't try to paint photo realistic, but paint in an expressionists way. That does a better job in tricking the eye into accepting the scene. Missed opportunity.
Fail Army- redundant yet funny rolled into one. My fav of all-time is the forklift driver who knocked over some huge shelving which cascaded into many shelves of product coming down. These were huge shelves you see in distribution centers.

Especially his adventures trying to get a song in Eurovision:
