Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds this joke is missing the punchline... It's about as funny as a Chuck Norris joke and saying 1st post! Anyways great video!

After an entire winter of getting Rick Roll'd on The Dark Knight board on imdb.com, I found this utterly fantastic.

It's a good premise, but the video is going to get dated [u]very[/u] quickly. Hell, I'd say it's dated already now that the Democratic primaries are over.
I would've preferred less jabber about politics and Iron Man and more jabber about the Rick Roll itself. Surely you of all people must have questions about where this prank came from and why it's so popular.
I was hoping that this could be a satire on the Rick Roll and it disappoints in this regard.

For what my fun facts are worth, the Rick Roll began just over a year ago (spring of '07, I believe) when a thread was made on the GameFAQs forum linking to a supposed leaked trailer of [i]Grand Theft Auto IV[/i]. The eager fans just about crapped themselves at this news only to find that the link was a hoax and instead of a sneak peak at the latest installment of Rock Star's favorite child, they were treated to the musical styling of one Rick Astley. Laughs were had, and it soon become a broad internet fad popular on sites such as 4chan and YouTube, the latter becoming so aware that that their own April Fool's 2008 prank was that every video featured on the front page linked to the "Never Gonna Give You Up" video.
You have just been made a little more educated in something completely useless. Your laurels and undying thanks are not needed, but I humbly accept the appreciation and praise I so deserve for brightening your dark little world.

;D TOO FRICKIN FUNNY !!!!
Ok I know I am 'dating' myself by saying I STILL have my Rick Astley cassette from highschool, yes that's right, a cassette! AND I agree Iron Man was cool but it has a slow start and needed a tad more action. :D I'm from BC Canada so I have no opinion on the election LOL
BUT I liked the song, I actually have a few on my iPod, as well as other cheezy 80's classics like Gowan, remember Gowan??? Anyhoo, yeah this was funny, cant wait for more :)

Thumbs up, man. You made it painless enough for us to sit through that whole retro video.
-
06.25.2008 - 20:34 | SandheaverAt least this was different for a Rick Roll, because TGWTG stayed with us throughout, and as a result, it was pretty funny.
-
06.26.2008 - 00:46 | BlizzardI like this song. Sure it is just bland generic pop but it is the best bland generic pop song I know.

07.04.2008 - 01:55 | TKWolfmanI sincerely enjoyed this video for a very specific reason. I have a friend that used to Rickroll me FUCKING CONSTANTLY! Links, spam programs, even my cell phone. It got so bad, I threatened to drag him to a kareoke bar and make him sing the whole song, beginning to end, word for word, over and over until they threw us out! Because my justice is swift and ironic.
But really, the song isn't bad, and this video was an amusing little satire to this online phenomenot of a prank.
(And no, I didn't spell it wrong, I meant "phenomenot", as in the opposite of a phenomenon.)

I actually paused it as soon as the song started then started reading the comments. I didn't realise there was anything other than a Rick Roll, until I read the comment about the politics, so I figured he was reviewing a Rick Roll, so I pressed play again. It was quite awkward to watch. In fact I'm typing this comment while listening to the last bit of it, which is of course at the top of the screen and unseeable by me who is now at the bottom of the screen. You know, I never got what was funny about being Rick Rolled. Where did it start, who started it, why did they start it, why pick this song, why did they think it would be funny and why did it become to popular?

07.09.2008 - 13:25 | statboy511I don't know if it's intentional, but you were seriously channeling Michael Scott from The Office in that. HILARIOUS!
And GO OBAMA!

Am I the only one who realizes that he DOES say "I am Iron Man"? That's the last line in the entire movie, excluding the scene after the credits.
