Mike Diva's Cyborg Beatdown; A Wach_Dogs Live Action Short



It's been a minute since we've gotten a healthy dose of Mike Diva's insanity, and while I admit to being a bit harsh on some of his recent videos Cyborg Beatdown shows an awesome transition in his career. Don't worry, Mike Diva's signature style is still intact (neon colors, electronic music, fast moving action, and more neon colors), but his direction seems to much more refined with a little less ADHD (not that I want that to disappear).

Yes, this an advert for Watch_Dogs, and yes I may have lost any interest in this game I once had during it's initial announcement, but it's such a pretty short that it doesn't matter. If the recent gameplay videos weren't such a bore, this would get me over-the-top hyped. Instead I'll enjoy this on it's own.

Mike Diva's 'Grind House Anthem'



Ever wonder what kind of magic would come out of mashing 50 Grindhouse movies together? Of course you have, don't even kid yourself. Using clips from 50 movies, Mika Diva and friends have put together an amazingly catchy electro-beat that I can't help but tap my toes to. After being sucked into Grindhouse Flix's catchy marketing scheme, I jumped over to their website to have a look and I was actually pretty impressed with their selection. If you're in an overly violent mood, I definitely suggest heading over dropping a few dollars to fulfill your needs.

BANNED JAPANESE FURBY COMMERCIAL OMG REAL



I may or may not have lied about this commercial being banned, but that's mostly because this may or may not be a real commercial, either way it doesn't really matter. While I may have been a little harsh on some of Mike Diva's past work, I still really enjoy a lot of his stuff (mostly the work that isn't blatantly being written by a third-party entertainment company), this video included included. The dude has an incredibly knack for some fancy post-production work and his humor is generally right up my alley.
 
Honestly though, when I first started watching the video part of me was insisting that this was in fact a Japanese ad for Furby, especially when the famous Japanese vocaloid, Miku, kicked in. Despite the inclusion of Miku I can promise that from there on all your hopes and dreams will be crushed. Permanently.

Mike Diva Takes A Moment To Remind Us He's Still Around


Mike Diva, you've been a huge disappointment these last few months. Yeah, I still take the time out of my week to check out your newest video, but let's be honest, they've been pretty bad. Passive-aggressive letter to Mike Diva aside, Mike Diva's newest entry to theYouTube project bammo, (a channel that proves a YouTube "super channel" doesn't really work) is actually pretty damn entertaining. Plus there's some nice VFX to boot.

While bammo has been relatively lackluster since it's inception (spoiler alert: it's f*cking horrible), content like this and CorridorDigital's Sync series gives a little hope for the channel. Even then, can we at least stop with these f*cking abysmal thumbnail images? I mean, look at it. Good god.

The M Machine : Glow



The M Machine brings us a music video that would fit perfectly as a side story set in the Blade Runner universe courtesy of Mike Diva. Absolutely love the sound for their debut track, and the ending just takes the damn cake. You bullies had it coming.

Mike Diva and CorridorDigital Presents: DUBSTEP GUNS



Awesome Robo favorites, Mike Diva and CorridorDigital, have taken it upon themselves to collaborate on the most advanced form of a gun duel to date. No longer are cool explosions and loud bangs an acceptable form of action, from here on in I expect to see Michael Bay and J.J. Abrams replacing all their sound effects with a slick dubstep track. It's what's in, right?

Lunchables Just Got Hard (NSFW)


Well, I certainly don't remember anything like this in the 90's, but it's possible I hid it deep within my memories. Either way, YouTube mastermind, MikeDiva has once again impressed me. I've been posting quite a few NSFW work pieces lately, so if you're at work I apologize, but this is definitely slightly NSFW.

Mike Diva Does Band Auditions


Awesome Robo favorite, Mike Diva, has produced a prank that outdoes Sexy Saxman Serenade in every way possible. By posting an ad in the Los Angeles area for band auditions, Mike Diva has collected a group of some of the most pathetic wannabe rockstars out there (keep living the dream guys, don't listen to me), willing to do anything they're told. 

While the idea of a pool filled with rubber duckies and death is a beautiful thing, I think I'm most impressed with the panel of judges ability to keep such straight faces. Seriously, how do you stare a random in the face while he tells you how bad he wants you and not move a lip muscle?

Great Farm Brings You Mildly Attractive YouTube Girls


MikeD has done it again, this time parodying a series of commercials that's managed to avoid the clutches of comedy for far too long. I'm glad to see his constant use of dubstep hasn't fizzled out yet either (not that I'm requesting dubstep in all of his videos). What do you all think, too much dubstep? Or just right?

Mike Diva Has Left Me Speechless


I have nothing to say, other than watch this video.

Rosario Dawson Is (un)surprisingly Awesome


A few weeks back Mike Diva introduced us to the wonderful world of Dogstep and proved that dancing animals are far better than dancing humans (boobs or not). This week Mike Diva invades the red carpet for the recently released movie, Girl Walks Into A Bar. Honestly, these are some of the best interviews I've seen despite the purposely placed misinformation. Far better than the train-wrecks you get from TMZ. Pure natural talent.

Mike Diva please keep up the interviews and bring back Rosario Dawson, she and you are equally as awesome. Rosario Dawbstep anyone?
