This is a sound-only video, but it goes along nicely with Seraph's.

Do I sense a theme developing?
I have this one saved, as both a video, and a music file. Both the A and the V are good in this here A/V masterpiece.

I recently changed my security settings after recovering from some malware, now I can't see any of the videos in this thread. Anyone know what I should do to show the videos? Interestingly, I can't view the Zero Punctuation game reviews either, but I can see videos embedded over at spacebattles.
I'm using Internet Explorer 9 and Microsoft Security Essentials to protect my computer.
edit: Problem solved

Sesame Street was cool, is cool and shall remain cool
They Darkling is a big Elmo fan, a big Big Bird fan, and will act out the Muppets lizard eating worms sketch with aplomb.
Sesame Street and the Muppets welcome celebrities into their world, some rise to the occasion, some just show up and cash the cheque - and like the Emperor Vespasian, who once noted that money does not smell, they don't care that the hand that signed the cheque spent the last four hours elbow deep in a frog.
But some people go that next step - world class performers who don't just bring their A game, but rock the oedipal gerund house.
This is such a performance. Elvis Costello - you are the man.

If you've got a spare hour to kill, you could hardly do better than to kill it educating yourself. James Burke is THE MAN.

And the last 5 minutes contains the most famous single "We'd better get this one take right, because we're not getting a second chance!" Shot possibly in the history of Television.

I happen to greatly enjoy the prescient irony of Copeland's Rodeo being used for a scene with beef in it.

Sound error?
I hate to nitpick, but I really feel like the gun sounds for the TIEs and the X/Y-wings got switched in that SW Fanime video.  I just watched ANH the other day, and the TIES (in fact, the "green beam" weapons in general) usually had the deeper-pitched, "spitting" sound.  While the "red beam" weapons tended to be higher-pitched, more like twanged piano wires.

I'd have to disagree.  The Imperial fighters have always had the high-pitched screeching sound to them- Rebel guns have the spitting noise.  As a SW geek (for anything before New Jedi Order and after the prequels, anyway), I'd say all the sound effects there, save one, were spot-on.
The one effect- no, it's worse than that- the one thing they got totally wrong was the main battery on the ISD.  Wrong turrets, in the wrong position, and the noise they made?  WAY too high-pitched.  Heavy turbolasers make a much deeper, more deliberate sound- you can hear it in ANH.  And yes, I just saw it again this week, too.

FWIW, the sound was edited in by someone other than the creator, who had said it was a work in progress.

So, you should go point that out, and it will probably be fixed.

Ah, yes, I remember seeing the original of this, which had a funnier, peppier tune. Despite appearances, btw, this is a very cleverly-designed RC plane, called the Sky Cutter -- virtually every horizontal surface is an airfoil, and the whole thing is made of balsa. Here's a video of someone else's Sky Cutter in action where you can see more, clearer shots that destroy the illusion of it being a "real" lawn mower:
