Misleading Red Dwarf VHS Ad Voiceovers Quickies Posted by Ian Symes on 17th March 2019, 13:47 It feels like there’s infinite possibilities for misleading Red Dwarf VHS ad voiceovers that could be constructed by chopping up unrelated lines from the series. “Marilyn Monroe… What a bastard!” – Dave, March 10th 2019 A stupid idea has sprung forth from its natural habitat of our forum and come to life in video form. Last week, there was a thread about Michael Jackson which was mercifully derailed early on by Warbofrog posting a link to an old BBC Video promo that lifted the audio of Lister saying “whacko jacko” and used it to create a bowdlerised version of his line about Star Trek. This led Dave to ponder on the possibilities for similar edits, as quoted above, and the suggestions spewed forth. The thread later got rerailed and went serious again, but not before planting the idea that it might be amusing to fire up Premiere. Many thanks to the original posters in that thread, as credited on the video.
I never entered the thread because the Michael Jackson topic isn’t one I want to get into, so this is all new to me. Highlights: “Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for Lister’s buttock crevice” is hall of fame worthy. “Duller than Beyond a Joke” is marvellous. “I’ve never seen one before, no one has, but I’m guessing it’s a banana” is the cleanest edit and works really well. “Cliff Richard” is brilliant.
For some reason, I’ve just watched that with it’s outstanding auto-generated subtitles. Some great offerings there. Not least the closing caption, which gives us [Music] you
It being a Michael Jackson thread might have influenced the tone of a lot of them. Or we’re just sick fuxx.
Hey, this has been a good day! I’ve eaten five times, I’ve slept six times and I’ve made a lot of things mine! Tomorrow, I’m going to see if I can’t have sex with Rimmer. Owww, yeah!
This was only two years ago?! Normally I remember or see something from this site and always imagined it was more recently than it was, so this has shocked me a little.
In fairness, it’s been quite a couple of years. Why, what’s happened? RIMMER: Co– Vid– Nine?? Deeley boppers.
