Remember When Winnie the Pooh and Apocalypse Now Met in a Mashup [VIDEO]

These days a video mashup probably makes it online every minute of the day. Back in the day they were a little harder to put together but there were some inspired ones to be sure.

Apocalypse Now is my favorite movie of all time and Winnie the Pooh was a fixture in my early childhood years both in book, TV and movie form. When I heard that someone had brilliantly mashed these two things together some 20+ years ago I really wanted to see it. But there was no internet back then and you’d have needed access to a pretty cool indie video store or a well-connected tape trader to view it.

Now with the interwebs everything is a Google search away from your fingertips and eyeballs.

This short video mashup was practically an urban legend back in the tape-trading days of the late 80′s early 90′s. I believe it appeared at a few film fests as well. It was created by Integrated Media student Todd Graham at the Ontario College of Art, Toronto, in 1987 before the days of the internet.

There’s some demented inspiration at work here.
