YOUR FRIENDS' ACTIVITY

    When 'Taken' and 'Finding Nemo' Become the Same Movie

    By Alexander Abad-Santos | The Atlantic Wire – Wed, Aug 22, 2012

    We realize there's only so much time one can spend in a day watching new trailers, viral video clips, and shaky cell phone footage of people arguing on live television. This is why every day The Atlantic Wire highlights the videos that truly earn your five minutes (or less) of attention. Today:

    RELATED: 'What Makes You Beautiful' Gets Beautiful

    Okay, we get it. The Taken series has garnered America's favor. In that spirit we give you the Finding Nemo remix of Taken, or the Taken remix of Finding ... you know what, just enjoy: 

    RELATED: Remembering Rachel Beckwith and One Raccoon Mechanic

    RELATED: A 'Mad Men' Rickroll and the Man That Destroys Carnival Games

    Also, we usually only promise five-minute videos or less. Though we'd be remiss if we didn't mention this 34-minute collection of Olympic highlights of the bumps, bruises, and basically a blooper collection of the world's best athletes (how much you watch is totally up to you):

    RELATED: Every 'Mad Men' Cocktail Ever; Rebel Wilson's 'Edge of Glory'

    Allison Brie. Your adorableness makes our hearts hurt and our brains just wonder what kind of musical fun you and Jessica Paré have when the cameras aren't rolling: 

    And in keeping with the music theme, our friends at Gawker are highlighting the musical offerings of "Diamond" Dave Hosley and his talent for being a "Karaoke DJ-Emcee." Okay, so Allison Brie might be cuter and more heartwarming, but Brie has nothing on Hosley's "Call me a Beegee" falsetto (around 1:05).

    • Rick Perry Goes to War Against Connecticut

      Rick Perry, the Texas governor and 2012 "oops" presidential candidate, is spending the beginning of this week in Connecticut. Perry, as the governor of Texas, has little on-its-face reason to be in Connecticut. Except, of course, for one: Texas's unemployment rate, which at 6.4 percent in April is significantly lower than the national average, is still not quite ideal. Perry wants to bring jobs to his state. And, as he sees it, some of those jobs could come from Connecticut.

    • Miss Utah's Pageant Answer Is the Worst You've Ever Seen

      The only time normal people seem to care about national beauty pageants is when one of the contestants messes up the question-and-answer round in the worst way possible. Well, it happened again last night at the Miss USA pageant, with Miss Utah giving an answer so bad that it eclipsed all other terrible pageant answers before her. Meet 21-year-old Marissa Powell. She is from Salt Lake City. And this is the full, cringe-worthy sequence you will be seeing a lot of this week:
