This is cut-n-posted from another forum, but I thought you might be interested in seeing this, NightWolve, because we are not ashamed to admit we like JCVD and silly martial "arts" films ;).
UPDATE 12.05.06: My brothers visited me on Sunday and said, "Hey, let's make two more entries for the Doritos SuperBowl contest." Well, I was feeling rather lazy and I kept trying to convince them to forget about the Doritos contest and just watch a movie with me instead.
Of course, they ultimately persuaded me to help them and now you can see the results:
KungFuDorito (http://www.jumpcut.com/view?id=19637884841B11DBB44F266C9A2E700D&type=)
Originally, my brothers wanted me to wear the karate + lucha libre outfit. I said, "Hell no, it's FREEZING outside." And it was. It was friggin' ice cold and that karate outfit is made of tissue-paper-thin material.
FACT: We had to stop filming because we were frozen and the sun had set.
FACT: At 10:30 last night, my brothers started editing this film. By 11:45 they had to upload it in order to make the contest deadline (at midnight).
FACT: They told me that they didn't have time to decide what the best shots were, or to clean up the editing, so don't get too excited. Also, they were using Windows' "MovieMaker" and it kept crashing / slowing down on them -- they can't believe they were able to finish at all.
And now, as if that wasn't enough, here is the second entry:
Desperate for Doritos (http://www.jumpcut.com/view?id=8D0145DA841D11DB94A5266C9A2E700D&type=)
Yes, that's me. Now you can understand why I initially didn't want to help my brothers! And my poor wife came home late Sunday night to find us pleading with her to do those two short scenes where she knocks on the door. I'm sure that Frito-Lay does not want Doritos associated with unsavory things like toilets, but my brothers were unwilling to compromise on their "vision".
FACT: Doritos do get soggy when submerged in water.
FACT: The sound you hear when the chip bounces off the rim is real, but slowed down to 1/4 speed, or so my brother informs me.
It's all very silly, of course, and they know that they don't have a chance at winning anything.

Well, I'm certainly not so ashamed of admitting it in my own forum. ;)
Videos: Mildly amusing, but too short. So you're in the second one and this was your post from another forum? If so, that's nifty you guys did this.

Yeah, the contest only allows 30-second entries. Some of the more talented folks were able to squeeze a lot of stuff into 30 seconds. The only thing that makes us feel good is since there are so many lame entries by other folks, our stuff won't be considered the bottom-of-the-barrel. We might be hovering just above the bottom, but hey! :)

uhhhhhh...
You didn't actually eat that dorito, did you?

Ah OK. Yeah, I think the ninja-dorito-snatch idea has a lot of potential and I wanted to see more scenarios of snatching. That's cool though. Good work.

:) No, the Dorito that fell in the toilet (well, the three that fell in the toilet, we did a few takes) got really soggy.
In the scene with the blow dryer: the blow dryer was "so" powerful that the chip eventually broke and flew across the bathroom and smashed against the wall. You should have seen our reaction: "No! We don't have any more whole chips, do we? Dammit!"

rofl that's funny. I don't care who you are.
So, do you horde your crack cocaine in the bathroom the same way?

In a word: Yes. :)
