Funny TAS of 2009 Innovative TAS of 2009
I'm thinking about doing a video about the funniest TASes and wanted some input on some of the funny runs that have been submitted. I've been using the Funny TAS Award nominations for the last few years as a guideline, but can anyone think of anything particularly funny that was published before 2007, or that was never nominated?

I second [1502] NES Tetris "playaround" by Baxter in 02:17.36
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

I appreciate the suggestions, but the movies mentioned in this thread were all nominated for Funny TAS (and in some cases won) so I'm already familiar with those. Let me know if you think of any others. Thanks a lot.

"2P Battletoads by FODA" has a lot of funny antics. http://tasvideos.org/355M.html Many other runs have their funny moments here and there, but since they aim for speed, they can't afford to be as funny as aforementioned playarounds.

Maybe is not what you want but: NES Kid Dracula (JPN) in 19:49.12 by adelikat, Randil, arukAdo, DarkKobold. http://tasvideos.org/1337M.html Totally funny Author's comments but you need to download the mkv Video from "Mirror www.archive.org" (bokudraculakun-tas-adelikatrandilarukadodarkkobold.mkv)
