HOLY CRAP THIS IS AWESOME

Written by Matt Ufford / 03.10.10

Close the door and buckle your sweatpants, nerds, because this is the coolest mash-up I’ve seen in ages: “Battlestar galactica-sabotageGalactica” set to the Beastie Boys’ “Sabotage,” with the scenes cut to mirror the iconic ’90s/faux-’70s music video (see the incredible side-by-side video below, via BuzzFeed).

Now, granted, I may be overhyping the coolness slightly because “Sabotage” automatically makes anything 30% better (seriously, try having sex while it’s playing on your stereo). But I doubt it. As someone who rarely spends more than an hour writing anything, the time that must have gone into making this video is mind-boggling to me. The only way you could improve this concept is if it was three minutes of Tricia Helfer pole-dancing set to “Sabotage.” It wouldn’t be as faithful to the Beasties’ video, but then, it wouldn’t need to be, now would it?

    It does go well with the chicken.

    “try having sex while it’s playing on your stereo”

    That’s a three minute song! What am I some kind of porn star?

    The Katee Sackhoff tag doesn’t get used near often enough.

    Fun fact: I actually have sex to the song “Tough Guy” on the Ill Communication album.

    Not so fun fact: It’s only 57 seconds long.

    What about doing it to the BSG opening credits?

    Hey, where’d everybody go?

    The part I like about Battlestar Galactica is when Annakin Dumbledorf uses his Vulcan powers to battle Orcs.

    NERDS!!!!!!!!!!

    Man, the hours that go into something like this. The knowledge of enough BSG to get the right snippets and the breakdown of the Beasties video and finally the time to put it all together.

    This is a prime example of why terrorists hate Americans.

    Sabotage truly is a timeless song. I mean, in the year 2243, a young James T. Kirk will jam out to it while trashing his stepdad’s 275-year-old car.
