Reminded me of “Splash” and “Die another day”, but then the crack wore off.
HILARIOUS
More likely “Free Willy”
Should I cry or should I laugh?
Are these real? Or some kind of spoof?
[Daphne – They’re real.]
When saying you’re a hamallu is an understatement, call Gozovision. The next level of hamallagni guaranteed.
Ara tithajjarx tbiegha second hand dik il-libsa.
My thoughts exactly.
Oh for fuck’s sake, he’s wearing white socks.
Mulej, ejja. Issa stess.
He’s not wearing white socks. He has none.
But, Jesus, this is mauvais gout at its best!
You’re right. I must have been blinded by surrealism of it all.
Tridx tghidli x’jibqa fik.
Xejn ruhi, xejn. L-aqwa li il-libsa “strapless”. Am speechless.
[Daphne – Strepless mhux strapless.]
Have you seen their strepline?

U ghandha fejn izzomm il-libsa strepless.
WE CAPTURING YOUR PERFECT DAY
Post wedding can be considered fun in some countries. Why not?

How come all the women featured in these clips are overweight?
[Daphne – I know. They have the bodies of middle-aged women and they can’t be older than their 20s. And the poor men, in almost all the videos, are asked to carry them piggy-back. Presumably, the alternative option of swinging them up in their arms is out of the question.]
The melodramatic slow-motion shots, the random close-ups of birds, the sentimental yet angrily passionate ’emo’ music, and the ‘honeymoon-phase’ playfulness.
It all works brilliantly.
No one can sink any lower than that, utterly shameful and vulgar. The sad thing is that they are not aware of it.
Why?
Why make these videos?
What’s the point exactly?
I don’t get it.
Do people actually pay for this sort of thing?
Spoiler Alert – Manatee at 2:28 ….
Truly a gay wedding. Congratulations to the couple. I am 100% morally convinced that this was intended to be funny.
There will be loads of good-natured laughter sometime down the line when they watch it with their children and grandchildren.
Issibhom inti, Daphne.
I feel embarrassed watching this video.
This video is part of an extensive anthology that has entertained many a dark evening. More, please!

I thought she was going for the horse.
Thank you for brightening up my day. That was well worth the break.
U imbaghad niskantaw ghax nofs il-popalazzjoni jivvutaw Labour.
Watch out Bollywood.
Top notch. I especially love the childish yet subtly erotic playfulness of the couple, which climaxed in the money-shot at 3:51.
What the f**k is wrong with these people?
Film title : Beached Whale
I am impressed. She is also a good diver.
Can’t say the same for him; he holds his nose under water.
Someone really ought to call Greenpeace.
I find this video very difficult to masturbate to.
kemm tifilhu tkunu HAMMALLI!!! halluhom ha jajxu….
Ahna tal-pepe’ – and PROUD OF IT.
Only in Gozo.
It must have cost a bomb. U imbaghad jghidu li l-Ghawdxin qed imutu bil-guh.
Check this out and go to 5:00minutes. http://vimeo.com/42533542
Shaggy-delic
Ara jithajrux jahdmu fil-film Titanic, halli jaghxqu kollox. Nahseb tkun verzjoni komika, hekk alright naccetta.
That is in Gozo, I presume.
One of the reasons why we should never build the tunnel: it would be easier for these dissgusting ideas to migrate to Malta.
I always advocated that what we should build is a wall round their island, giving them the independence they want and making them apply for a visa before crossing over.
Daphne, I can’t imagine you wasting your time looking at this crap without a motive!! Come on let on, who’s the big head behind this farce????
[Daphne – Excuse me? I love this crap. It’s amazing. Everybody, please send in more links.]
Check out some pre- and post-wediding photos here, but try not to pee in your pants with laughter:

You have to click on the “photography” button to see the photos.
Joe, these videos are of immense cultural importance.
/me goes pissing against a tree while Supermario steals my car to impress his wife-to-be
Was swimming under water a real scene or made up? I could see that the strepless bodice didn’t drop off.
While taking a walk in Buskett Gardens, I met a couple shooting their pre-wedding video.
They were working on a scene in which the bride-to-be waited for her groom as he walked straight towards her.
Being an overweight sort of guy, he lumbered along rather than raced gracefully towards his love. The film director yelled out: “Ejja, hmar! Caqlaq naqra.”
Have to say, very entertaining when watching while stuck in the mother of all traffic jams. I knew I should have gone for the post wedding video…not.
I have only three letters: the W, the T and the mighty F.
I’m sorry, I’m hooked. I love them.
[Daphne – I know. They’re great, aren’t they. I especially love the bits with seagulls. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a gull on a Maltese beach, but why bother when you can buy or loot stock footage. And those underwater shots. I’m trying to picture the scene: the cameraman in his trunks and goggles and somebody else giving directions from the shore. Oh, and did you notice that while she jumped into the water in her wedding dress – because obviously, it’s hers to do with as she pleases – he carefully removed his rented outfit and changed into his jeans for the sea-scenes. Hilarious.]
Why make these videos? God only knows.
What’s the point exactly? Beats me.
You don’t get it. Neither do I.
But I assume it is a personal video and if they’re happy, then who am I to criticise?
Dawn veru bhahan.
Anqas hemm ghalfejn tghidha, Giovanni.
Why do people feel the need for such exhibitionism? Aren’t some aspects of a more intimate nature best left to the couple rather than for all to see?
No wonder shows like Big Brother and social networking sites are such a hit.
Is that exhibitionism? It’s tame compared to what we have grown up watching: Dallas and Dynasty. Get rich quic and throw it away when you’re fed up of it. This is the society we live in – nothing is sacred any more.
M’ghandux x’jaqsam. It’s what’s in your head and how you were brought up, that counts.
If people stopped blaming everyone and everything else for all that goes wrong in Malta, Malta would be a better place.
Imma kit ma jigbghux jaghmlu affarijiet biex jaqaw ghan-nejk.
Thanks Min, for keeping it Min. (It’s the abbreviated form of Minimum.)
Daphne, dan l-istudio ghandu sensiela minn dawn il-videos…worth watching ta’ vera.

[Daphne – Beat you to it: http://daphnecaruanagalizia.com/2012/05/lets-take-a-mini-break-from-labour-and-watch-a-pre-wedding-video/ ]
Uff, x’anti climax! I always start with your latest post – specjalment meta tigik wahda minn dawk il-granet fejn titfa wahda wara l-ohra. Qas inlahhaq mieghek…
Hilarious. Il-hamallagni bla limitu.
Mor ibewl mas-sigre hej dok…
These cannot be real couples, where’s the passion, seductiveness, playfulness and loving looks? They have to be very bad actors and not real live couples at all.
[Daphne – Of course they’re real couples, Antoinette. Why do you think so many marriages end up so badly so soon? The relationship is purely functional and a passion-free zone. Find a boyfriend/girlfriend, start dating, get serious, buy a plot, save up, build on plot, furnish house, then 10 years later, all passion spent (if there ever was any to start with), get married. I always wonder what the honeymoon is like in these situations. They probably spend it at Auchan. It’s the marriage model their parents used in rural villages decades ago, but it doesn’t work now.]
cruise hi daphne…. u dorna ta postijiet! u ikel bl-addocc kien hemm!
I think it would be very difficult for a normal couple to show passion in front of a cameraman one never met before. That is why there is no passion of course.
I will never forget what my cousin had told me when she separated after a year of marriage. “We spent our betrothal planning the house and the wedding. After only a year of marriange “faqqghet il-bomba””.
A marriage that lasts nowadays is rare – I admire those that are still going strong.
Too many temptations round. You have to be a saint to survive a marriage nowadays.
Better stay single.
Issa jkunu jafu x’jigifieri l-gays.
In my opinion this is what inbreeding leads to…simpletons.
Game over. All videos are password protected now.
So much for advertising Gozovision.
The spoilsports have put a password requirement.
Why can’t I watch it? What do I need to do?
Daphne, why can’t I see these videos? They’re private now.
I need a password! Not fair.
Oh, they’ve locked the video!
I’m getting a prompt asking for a password to view the video.
Anyone else missing out on this wonderful piece of errrm videography (?).
Iff I can’t watch it, I need to put in a password. Any ideas how to make the link work?
[Daphne – They’ve been locked. Too many people were laughing at them.]
Unfortunately, it would seem somebody has realised we’re laughing our heads off. I cannot access any without a password.
Any chance of getting the password?
I’d try “Joseph Muscat.” He’s a guarantee to anything.
