Hot on the heels of voice actor Rob Paulsen stopping by the Nerdist offices to sing an updated version of his gargantuan geographic song “Yakko’s World,†the internet seems to just keep on giving with yet another version. This time, it’s clips from 168 movies cut together to “sing” the classic Animaniacs tune.
This impressive bit of 90s nostalgia was created by YouTube’s The Unusual Suspect and brought to our attention via a recent article on Gizmodo. These days, supercuts are fairly ubiquitous on the internet and can serve up hours of entertainment, but this one deserves some special recognition; gathering clips together for any video like this is a daunting task to say the least, but we can’t imagine the work that went into finding movies that mention each individual country. Our best guess is that a database of scripts must have been compiled and then the world’s most time-consuming CTRL+F search began. And that’s hours of work to be completed even before any of the movie clips were cut.
The supercut spans such a wide range of movies it’s almost impossible to keep track. And should you want to plan one of the weirdest movie marathons, The Unusual Suspect created a blog post that lists all 168 movies used in their video.
What are your thoughts on this supercut? Should they set their sights on other Animaniacs songs in the future? “Yakko’s Universe” perhaps? Or should “Wakko’s State Capitols” get its moment in the spotlight again? Let’s discuss in the comments below!
