The Dark Knight Trailer Recut: Toy Story 2

Written by Paul van Veenendaal on October 9th, 2008 | no comments

Comedy site SpikedHumor.com has posted an outstanding re-cut version of the Toy Story trailer with audio and voice-overs from The Dark Knight.

In the mashup, Woody (Tom Hanks) takes on the role and voice of Heath Ledger’s Joker, and Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) functions as Christian Bale’s Batman. The video is effective in portraying Toy Story as a dark, epic crime thriller. Other characters from The Dark Knight, substituted for their Toy Story counterparts are Alfred (Michael Caine) who voices Rex, the green dinosaur and Morgan Freeman (Lucius Fox) whom is portrayed as Mr. Potatohead.

The Los Angeles Times blog points to some other wonderful movie recuts and mashups, such as teen comedy “American Pie” as a horror flick, “The Shining” recut remixed into a romantic comedy, Top Gun turned into a love story and high school comedy “Superbad” as epic drama.

Other Batman mashups and spoofs that seen popularity lately: Bruce Wayne with the voice of 007 agent Daniel Craig from the Quantum of Solice trailer, an alternate take of the interrogation scene between Batman and The Joker, the “The Dark Bailout” which pokes fun at the $700-billion aid given to the U.S. financial sector, a kids version of The Dark Knight Trailer and a trailer remake by Evil Iguana Production.
