My kids saw Shrek! not too long ago and got into that song. So I put the video from YouTube up for them and did a double take because I had completely forgotten that the video itself is a tie-in to Mystery Men (which is severely underrated imo)

    I love Mystery Men. It was just the perfect mix of camp and heart. It's criminally underrated. I kinda get it — it's hammy and ridiculous, but there was just an earnestness to it. It was full of tropes, but never boring or formulaic. Familiar, while being totally unexpected. It felt like watching people play a tabletop superhero RPG.
