@MistaTurdburgerz laserdiscs was the high-tech discs that came out before CDs took hold back in the early 90s. They basically looks like CDs the size of vinyl records
To all who dont get it: this video shows what life would be like if the things that are popular now, never took off. They replaced "facebook, nfl, dvd's and ipods" with friendster, xfl, lazer disks (?) and zunes. the reason you dont understand is because none of the stuff in the vid is popular. ^^
@MistaTurdburgerz laserdiscs were the precursor to cds. they looked like giant cds the size of vinyl records that were around in the late 80s to early 90s, but never got very popular. they mostly could show video clips and high quality images.
@eudemon002 its just basically like what if the things that failed in our real-life actually succeeded and what succeeded in our real-life failed. new coke was introduced several generations back but was rejected, surge hasnt been around since the 90s, betamax was beaten out by vhs in the 80s. also the ipod pretty much blew the microsoft zunes out of the water. friendster was a social networking site that was never as popular as myspace years back. etc. etc.
@RatePage the video is about what it would be like if everything popular now was a flop and the crappy competitors of them were the real popular ones.
Has anyone actually met someone who truly doesn't like Waterworld? I know its always made fun of for being "bad", but I don't know anyone who actually dislikes it.
@theinfectiondrummer no the internet did exist but they say it didnt turn out well, 'we thought it would be huge' implies it did exist but didnt turn out as big as it is now.
@qazer24 Congratulations, you have completely refrased what the top comment said, which was undeniably on the screen while you were writing the comment, you, sir, have a mental deficiency.
i love how they got the virtual boy just for this sketch, by the way the virtual boy was supposed to be nintendo's first 3d gaming system instead of but it was so unpopular that it is not even really considerd a real ninendo system
@yaroslav64 here's what i didn't get, pt cruisers, the president howard dean, the xfl, the xfl teams, magic johnson's magic hour,(did he say africanized killer bees?)... think that's it. i only got the crystal pepsi thing as i watched something about it by chance just yesterday. Think you share a lot more witht he US than we do in the UK as well.
that awkward moment when that comment talking about the top comment complaining about that other old top comment replaced said comment as a top comment.
@thatgirlfromaptd8 I don't know all but nearly all were either controversies over the years, Like cell phone brain damage or the avian bird flu, or things that never got popular like Zune or Friendster. Hope I helped.
the akward moment is a when one top comment is complaining about another top comment wich is complaining about another top comment's misspelling has incorrect grammar.
@dylanbh1 Using good logic here, but at no point did they say nobody uses the internet. Would be like a group of friends present day that met on a BBS. Possible.
So to explain, I believe the video is about how some things became big and well-known, and other things died away. Laser discs vs VHS, Zume vs iPod, Friendster vs Facebook, Pepsi vs Coke, Napstar vs iTunes etc. And other things that were meant to be "omgomg the world is gonne end/change" like Y2k, bird flu, and cell phone brain damage.
if things turned out differently, they wouldn't have a Beatles poster on the wall. They would have a Monkees, Herman's Hermits, or Dave Clark Five poster on the wall
