Fist of Freddie (A Spoof of Kung Fooled)

Original Video by Wong Fu Productions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN8E8L5c9WI

Basically this is a parody of a parody. As a twist from the original sketch: what if Freddie really knew kungfu, wushu, ninjutsu etc?

When I saw the video, I thought it was really funny and awesome. At the same time, I found it weird to have Freddie in a sketch without any special effects so I had to fix that..

Being a fan of kung fu flicks from the 70s and 80s, it was an opportunity to pay homage to them; cue the cheesy music, inappropriate sound effects and over the top, nonsensical editing. Basically Freddie is so badass that physical impossibilities and continuity errors don't bother him at all.

It was also an opportunity for me to try out some filters and plugins for Sony Vegas as well as stock footage from Action Essentials 2.

Seriously? do you know what the word SPOOF means?

@sebMurdock A spoof can made by imitation or fooling around with original material to new ends.I remixed the video and gave it a new twist: 'what if Freddie really knew Kungfu'? There really isn't a narrow definition of spoof anyway. You can say this is bad but you can't say it's not a spoof.

From 0:18 onwards, it gets different.
