IFILM's Viral Video: Best of 2005
We're screenshotbig fans of IFILM's Viral Video, a collection of clips so funny, quirky, embarrassing, or bizarre that it's impossible to resist the urge to pass them on. These 25 little beauties continue to criss-cross the Web, spreading from user to user like a funny flu. Our favorites from their favorites:
  • A fake trailer for Stanley Kubrick's "The Shining," re-imagined as the type of feel-good, comedy/drama that would have made the great director puke.
  • A jarring Gap commercial from Spike Jonze, which really functions as a public announcement of corporate brand failure.
  • Tom Cruise doing his best to make himself a laughingstock on Oprah.
  • A "Star Wars Episode III" spoof.
  • And our most favorite of all: The "World of Warcraft with Leeroy Jenkins," in which an overenthusiastic gamer...well, take a look.
Here's hoping the contagion continues in 2006... (in Short Films)
