Kill Bill, Parts 1 & 2, in One Minute, in One Take, produced by the University of York Filmmaking Society.
To be fair, they're from the north so the best you can expect is about 60%.

This is about how long I can bear to play side-scrollers, so I liked it!

I'm more of a fan of these:
Return of the King in 5 Seconds.
The Matrix in 5 seconds.

Definitely awesome. I like the subtle touch of the red scarves as blood.

No, it's there. Right after the Lucy Liu part, just before the coffin. It's really short so easy to miss. Also, the actress playing Vivica A. Fox is white.

Yeah, pretty much.

The Star Wars one is either really funny or really idiotic, perhaps both. I won't link to it because I shouldn't have laughed at it while sober.

Didn't miss a single nuance, unlike the shorter versions.

They did leave out Karen Kim, though, which for my money was maybe the best part of the whole saga.

I've always felt that the only proper way to enjoy Kill Bill is to watch both parts in one sitting, back-to-back.
So I approve of this.

Huh. I always thought the Bride killed Vernita before going to Okinawa, but...
Well, let's see. The Bride flies to Okinawa in Vol 1, at 0:45; the graphic shows her leaving from El Paso. The wedding rehearsal was in El Paso, so presumably she was hospitalized there, and presumably the flight to Okinawa is shortly after her escape from the hospital in Buck's Pussy Wagon. In Okinawa she gets the Hanzo sword; then she flies to Tokyo (Vol 1, 1:04) and kills O-Ren.
At the end of Vol 1 (1:42), we see the Bride making the Death List Five list. She's on a plane. She's got a sword, so it's after Okinawa, and it seems like the same plane as the one we see her arriving in Tokyo on at 1:04 (that scene with the plane rolling over Tokyo, intercut with O-Ren and entourage driving around looking cool, under the awesome music with the horn soloist). So it looks like she makes the Death List Five list on the flight from Okinawa to Tokyo (not on the flight from Tokyo back to the States, as the placement of this scene after the Tokyo sequence might hypothetically make somebody think — not me, of course, I was totally on top of this from the beginning, but you know, somebody).
Back to the start of Vol 1, when we see the Bride kill Vernita Green; after that, she leaves the house, goes out to the Pussy Wagon, and crosses Vernita off the list (at 0:15). She has the list, so it's after Okinawa; O-Ren is already crossed off, so it's even after Tokyo. (Continuity error: in this shot, and at 1:42 where the list is made, the names are in red ink, but when O-Ren's name is crossed off at 1:38, it's in black ink.)
So, okay, it's definitely the same order as in the posted video: escape from hospital, fly to Okinawa, get sword, fly to Tokyo, kill O-Ren, return to States, kill Vernita.
The reason I always thought she killed Vernita before going to Okinawa was that she's still driving the Pussy Wagon when she arrives at Vernita's house. But I guess that, after escaping from the hospital, she drives the Wagon to the airport in El Paso and leaves it in long-term parking, where nobody notices it because it's so nondescript. And besides, nobody's really looking for it, because its owner is just a homicide victim whose truck went missing from the scene. Anyway, after killing O-Ren, the Bride eschews any direct flight to California (there probably aren't any from a city as minor as Tokyo, to be fair) and instead flies back to the major airline hub in El Paso, picks up the Wagon, drives it the 1000km or so to Pasadena to kill Vernita (leaving her newly acquired Hanzo sword in the truck but being sure to take a 4-inch knife), then drives back to El Paso to go after Budd, only abandoning the Wagon when it dies on her (as she says in Vol 2, 1:25).
The Bride must really like that Pussy Wagon.

which turns out to be the Green Hornet theme.

She hires a motorcycle which co-ordinates with her Bruce Lee style outfit and has it's own samurai sword holder - she's really into themed vehicles.

I thought the leathers came with the bike. (She's not wearing them when she's walking through the airport on arrival in Tokyo, for example.) And I think in the Kill Bill universe, everything Japanese has a katana holder. (Besides the motorcycle, there also the airplane seats — and maybe the table where O-Ren and entourage eat in the House of Blue Leaves, though my memory is hazy here.)
But I take your point. The turquoise convertible in Vol 2 is also pretty stylin'.

Fair point, at least if you fly Samurai class.
