Awkward Star Wars

The final throne room scene, but without the music.




You can hear a pin drop (among other things...).


And here's the original for comparison.

The World Cup of Arm-Folding

Something novel that has been happening during the ongoing World Cup involves the small segment before the start of each match where they show the starting line-ups.

In the past, a face photo was the best you would get as each player's name was shown.

This year, you get short clips of each player above the waist, turning towards the camera and folding his arms. But amazingly, something so simple goes awkwardly wrong so many times.

I'll let this video by Slate show what I mean (and make sure to read the hilarious article as well, you won't regret it).  





Didn't they have time to attempt a few more takes? Looks sloppy.

Here, you can generate your own annoyed football player.

Even Jimmy Kimmel made fun of it.

Guy Trapped Naked Outside His Hotel Room

In this viral hit from a couple of years ago, a hotel guest is too lazy to put on clothes to go out to the hallway to leave his tray.

Instead, he checks, and decides to come out naked.

And the door locks behind him...





Ouch.

But also, ha, ha, hilarious!

Quite a predicament.

I wouldn't wish this to my worst enemy (OK, I might).

But why doesn't he ask the two guys passing by to contact reception?
Or at least give him a towel to cover himself?

...

Because unfortunately (or fortunately)...
I'll let the following video explain.
