So, I was scrolling through the internet the other day, and I stumbled upon this hilarious idea: making a meme video mashing up John Cena and that “Gustavo” song from Breaking Bad. You know, the one that plays when Gus Fring is, well, being Gus Fring? I thought, “Why the heck not?” It sounded like a fun little project.
First, I grabbed a bunch of John Cena clips. I mostly snagged stuff from his WWE days, especially his entrance with that iconic theme song. I also found some of his movie scenes, especially the funny ones. You know, the ones where he’s being all goofy and action-hero-y at the same time. I spent a good few hours just collecting all these clips and dumping them into a folder on my desktop.
Next, I needed that “Gustavo” song. It’s not exactly called that, the original title is “1977” by Ana Tijoux. But yeah, I just searched for it online, and boom, there it was. I downloaded it and I had my two main ingredients ready.
- Gathered a bunch of John Cena video clips from WWE and his movies.
- Downloaded the “1977” song.
- Made sure I had video editing software. Nothing fancy, just something basic to cut and stitch things together.
Now came the fun part: putting it all together. I fired up my video editing software, which, by the way, is nothing fancy. Just some basic program I found online. I started by importing all the clips and the song. Then, I began the tedious process of slicing and dicing the videos, trying to sync them up with the beat of the song.
The Real Work
It was a lot of trial and error. I wanted to make it look like John Cena was kind of “vibing” to the song, you know? Like he was the one doing all the Gus Fring stuff, being all serious and calculated. I played around with different transitions, added some slow-motion effects here and there, and even threw in a few funny sound effects for good measure.
Honestly, I lost track of time. I was so engrossed in this silly project that hours flew by. But finally, after what felt like forever, I had something I was happy with. A video that showed John Cena in a whole new, and hilariously unexpected light.
I uploaded my creation to a few online platforms, just for fun, I shared it with my buddies, and I had a good laugh about it. It wasn’t anything groundbreaking, but it was a fun little experiment that brightened up my day. And hey, who knows, maybe it brought a smile to a few other people’s faces too. That’s all that matters, right?
