Dino De Laurentiis Honored With YouTube's Worst-Ever Video
It's kind of obvious to suggest that any true video tribute to the late Dino De Laurentiis should comprise some balance of grace, schlock and adventure, much as the legendary producer's own work did for decades prior to his death today at age 91. I think you can find all three in this strange video bearing his (misspelled) name, but you'll probably have to search -- and if you can make it through all eight minutes, you're a better viewer than I.
The worst, most annoying thing about this video? It's not embeddable. I spent the last hour fiddling with failed download attempts, so you'll have to go watch it on the 'Tube, where there's little to go on in "dino delaurentis" [sic] but the summary by creator "schoenburgh," who writes:
a serios of guitar vignettes experiment setup ggtr synth and preamp directly to line in camera.one usefull tio take the mic input down to the low setting on the hdr-sr1 avchd hdd handycam
But what about the comprehensive, impressionistic montage from the Dino De Laurentiis photo album? And is that a young Brett Ratner? So many questions! Anyway, may God rest De Laurentiis's soul, because I don't think this guy ever will.
PALATE CLEANSER: Trailer for the De Laurentiis-produced Barbarella. Don't mention it.

That thing is as unwatchable as most of his movies. But I have to pay my respects to him because he produced the first movie I ever saw in a theater...King Kong (1976) I know...I know, cut me some slack...I was 3!
Fast forward to 6:12. That explains everything.
That's my video for some inexplicable reason I am stoked not particularly that the critique finds most of my videos very dificult to watch however so do I. How do you like them apples?anyway there's your embed code go to town!
I also at that time read his autobiography and I felt very much like his Big monkey King Kong which he paraded around or big ape.I love the late great Dino!You can see your critique is quite valued by me.yotube must have millions of videos and to make the wost one ever can be considered quite an accomplishment,I usually use Firefox and I have the spellcheck enabled there.I wonder if I am in the running for worst speller with the largest vocabulary!
I'll meet you after school for a polite chat Dino or dimwit(now that wasn't nice).My apologies dim bulb I'm kidding I agree with your assesment on that particular film and quite afew others.I however did have quite a band of idiots who thought my films were quite entertaining.Catch my music on Jango Radio I am the artist Servideo there and read some of the comments.I would appreciate your feed back very much.I also have music on reverbnation http://www.reverbnation.com/nybilly and will be putting out an album with Cd baby which very might be the longest in terms of hours heaviest in terms of gigs and have the most tracks of any album in the history of recorded music.Most tracks the lenghth of a short feature film.I really would be beholding to you for the publicity.It just may be that bad publicity will serve me better then no publicity!
