Okay, this goes on the list of Stuff I've Seen That I Shoulda Posted to MeFi list. I tip my hat, Mr. Frog. I tip my hat.
Anyways, this series of videos has even made my wife, veteran of too many Marvel movies I dragged her to ("Is Magneto the bad guy?"), not only laugh but be more willing to hear me drunkenly expound on the History of Comics, the Nature of Comics, and Why Civil War Sucked.
Once they get away from the whole Apple-spoof, things really start to shine. Batman and Spider-man comparing woes is wonderful in that all too rare "I wish I thought of that" way. posted by robocop is bleeding at 7:34 PM on June 7, 2007

Tear up the blue with expound-ness-ly-'s-s'?

"A movie by David Goyer, who wrote Batman Begins."
You know, these would be a heck of a lot funnier if they were 30 seconds long. The concept is funny enough, but the execution is a bit tedious. posted by eamondaly at 10:04 PM on June 7, 2007
"Hulk between jobs. Must supplement income."
I haven't laughed that hard in ages. posted by Pope Guilty at 10:25 PM on June 7, 2007
My vote is for brilliance! Tho I agree, some could be shorter...
Most excellent, JustSomeRandomGuy. Carry on!
Green Arrow meets Hawkeye, perhaps? Just plain ol' Green Arrow with any of these guys would rock. posted by zoogleplex at 11:21 PM on June 7, 2007
With a name like JustSomeRandomGuy, you'd think he'd post here already. posted by Pope Guilty at 11:36 PM on June 7, 2007
The Batman one is awesome. Though, yes, they should be shorter. posted by blacklite at 12:39 AM on June 8, 2007
Okay wait. #2 made me laugh harder than the Batman ones. posted by blacklite at 12:44 AM on June 8, 2007
Last comment, I swear, but: watch them all. There are a couple that could be shorter, but as a whole, it balances out.
Hilarious. posted by blacklite at 12:55 AM on June 8, 2007
Superhero tangent: check out yogabeans (http://www.yogabeans.com/) for hilarious versions of yoga classes using a variety of posable figures - the most current includes Spiderman, Mr. Freeze, Woody from Toy Story, Flash and the Green Lantern. The imagined dialog is hysterical :o) posted by crepeMyrtle at 7:02 AM on June 8, 2007
I thought the first two or three where a bit preachy (too one sided toward Marvel). Once Batman shows up they get better, and once they get to the bar it's really good. posted by oddman at 7:57 AM on June 8, 2007
The later ones are great - IronMan keeling over is fantastic!
And, that Liberal vs. PC thing. Awesome.. They have to air it! posted by Chuckles at 9:56 AM on June 8, 2007

That is such a weighted question. Divorces have happened for less. posted by ZachsMind at 10:15 AM on June 8, 2007 [1 favorite]
...that question's right up there with "Does this mutant power make me look fat?" posted by ZachsMind at 10:33 AM on June 8, 2007
