You probably recognize the man on the left. That's actor Sir Ian McKellen. The guy on the right is Hunter Davis, an actor/director who's newest YouTube video is exploding because it's quite possibly the most genius thing people have seen since… well… since the <a title="Funny Old Spice muscle video" href="http://firsttoknow.com/interactive-video-old-spice-muscle-music-featuring-you/" target="_blank">Old Spice video</a> from earlier this week.
Anyway, Davis offers viewers a dramatic interpretation of "Baby Got Back" as if it were performed by Sir Ian. It starts with a quote from the timeless classic <em>Heathers</em>, then gets into the performance. This is not just a silly imitation. Davis is absolutely SPOT ON with his intonation and syntax. It's like hearing Gandolph and Magneto reciting the song on a blooper real from <em>Lord of the Rings</em> or <em>X-Men</em>.
After watching the video you should totally send the link to your friends.
