My “Wonderboy” Music Video

Back in 2002 I was 17 and digital editing on home PC’s was just becoming a reality for folks, and the band Tenacious D was slowly picking up steam with the release of their album. I was a fan since the TV series on HBO (after Mr. Show) so me and my buddy Corey decided to make a video to “Wonderboy“. I play the lead in this, and as you’ll see I was really into physical comedy at the time.

If you don’t live in TEXAS or in surrounding states, then you don’t know “WHATABURGER” (pronounced water-burger for reasons unknown). But it doesn’t matter, swap it out with any fast food place you know, and the joke still works. Watch as me and some friends 3-way call 2 different WHATABURGER locations to see what would happen.

Mean Panda

I came across this video a long ways back on nico-nico a video site from Japan, and I thought it was hilarious so I uploaded it. It’s a series of cheese commercials from EGYPT (or so I’ve been told via youtube comments) about a Panda who bullies folks who don’t purchase his product. Watch as it goes from cute, to funny, to horrifying.

Subtext: The Movie

If you aren’t familiar with the TV Show “Subtext” the premise is simple, people at home text messages (for about $2 a message) to a live TV show, where a host reads the messages on air (they also stream behind a green screen “talk soup” style). Well, me and some friends knew where the studio where they filmed was at and decided it would be funny to crash the show while it broadcast live. This is what went down.

Dog Fish Head Beer Commercial

My good friend Chris Rose (also known to the world as the mash-up D.J. ‘Car Stereo Wars‘) rang me on the phone one day and said he was filming this commercial for a “Dog Fish Head Beer” contest and needed some help with the shoot. As a fan of silly videos and beer, I was instantly on-board. Chris wrote, directed and starred in this spot about washed up child actor Anthony Michael Cherry that went on to win FIRST PLACE.

NERF GUN FIGHT in a VIDEO STORE

josejonesfilms — Sun, 24 Jul 2011 22:00:06 +0000

There is an amazing film-geek mecca known as “I LOVE VIDEO” here in Austin,TX. The store is filled with all the classics, as well as obscure foreign titles, and also carries the mainstream blockbusters (so everyone is happy). Years ago I made friends with some of the employees and we started a weekly Monday Night Nerf Gun Fight that we would play in the store, while customers were in there.
