That’s right, it’s time for another edition of Weekly Link Love. As we’ve done before, this is where we highlight websites, blogs, videos or other things we think you should know about.

This time around we’re highlighting a few of the great YouTube content creators we watch and enjoy on the regular. These talented folks work tirelessly to bring us informative, entertaining and fun video content and we think it’s time they got the love they deserve.

You may have heard of none, some or all of these creators, but whatever the case, we think they warrant a spot in the Weekly Link Love. As always, don’t forget to spread the love. Comment, like and subscribe. But remember, be kind.

Now, on to the links!

We thought it would be great to link to other blogs, websites, podcasts, videos and stories that caught our fanc,y or we think deserved to get noticed, during the week. So, to further that, and spread a little love around, we’re bringing back the Weekly Link Love.

No, it’s not an original idea. Lots of people do it. And we’ve done it before too. Granted, it’s been a minute. But that doesn’t matter.

We think it’s important to bring it back and uplift others, especially these days. So, welcome back the Weekly Link Love.

The original Total Recall is a classic in most senses of the word. Paul Verhoeven’s original film might have taken liberties with the source material, but it exceeded as a sci-fi action extravaganza. The remake hopes to capitalizes on the original film’s name brand, while adapting a story more close to the Philip K. Dick story that inspired both films.

In most of the marketing thus far we have seen hints of familiarity with the 80’s classic, but this new trailer all pretense seems to have been shed. Even though the film is purported to be a more faithful adaptation, the film clearly is taking a lot of its cues from the previous movie.

Even though there are many more parallels exposed in this new trailer, the movie still looks like a slick and handsome sci-fi actioner. The cast is beyond solid, we know the story is a stand out, and the effects work looks to be as competent as you could ask for. Even if Total Recall doesn’t turn into a classic, the trailer suggests it will at least be an adequate summer adventure.

You can check out the full trailer after the jump, and if it sells you, Total Recall hits cinemas later this summer.

It is the job of a trailer to sell you on a movie. Based on that most simple of definitions the first trailer for Simon Pegg’s next film, A Fantastic Fear of Everything, might be the greatest trailer of all time. This is a project that few of you would have heard about, but now many of you will be eager to see.

For those of you unfamiliar with this film (AKA almost all of you) here is the synopsis to set the table for you:

Jack is a children’s author turned crime novelist whose detailed research into the lives of Victorian serial killers has turned him into a paranoid wreck, persecuted by the irrational fear of being murdered. When Jack is thrown a life-line by his long-suffering agent and a mysterious Hollywood executive takes a sudden and inexplicable interest in his script, what should be his big break rapidly turns into his big breakdown, as Jack is forced to confront his worst demons; among them his love life, his laundry and the origin of all fear.

Those words don’t do the trailer much justice. The film seems to strike an amazing tone, somewhere between whimsy and fear lies this potential gem.

Check out the full trailer after the jump.

Tonight sees the end of Chuck, a quirky show that never seemed to connected with the mainstream, but managed to carve out enough of a fan base to stay alive for an impressive five season run.

The Friday night time slot the show has inhabited is often referred to as the ‘Firday Night Death Slot’, a moniker that has made sense this season as it has been no secret this would be Chuck‘s last season.  That said, death is not always a sorrowful event, sometimes it can be a celebration. A celebration of the life of a show that against most odds lived long enough to give its fans a satisfying run.

Check out a whole slew of videos clips in anticipation on tonight’s finale. In the first few videos you get series stars Zachary Levi, Yvonne Strahovski, and Joshua Gomez remembering the show, thanking the fans and saying goodbye to the show.

Following those we have several clips from tonight’s finale to get you all jazzed for the, hopefully, fond farewell to one of our favorite nerd/super spies.

Previously, we told you about Freddie Wong and his gang of pals who make cool videos featuring great visual effects just because they can. On that occasion, the video in question featured one of our favorite actors: Spartacus himself Andy Whitfield.

The video was awesome but also a little sad because now Whitfield is ill and won’t be returning to Spartacus. But fear not, we’ve got a new video for you today that’s full of more amazing visual effects and even a little humor that will help make the sadness go away. This one, called Epic VFX, features just that — some epic visual effects made all the more epic by some funny commentary.

Check out the new video after the jump. Also, for your viewing pleasure, we’ve included another video from Freddie highlighting all of the action scenes in all of his videos from 2010. It’s pretty damn impressive too so be sure to check it out.

In what may be one of the most profound videos ever put together, YouTube user Musicvideosthatsuck has compiled a video highlighting all of the times Mad Men character and serious power player Don Draper has uttered the word “What?” Now I’m not suggesting this video will change your life but it will give you a good idea as to the power of one word and also the skills of the actor who portrays Draper on the show: potential Superman Jon Hamm.

Even if you’re not really interested in writing, acting or much of anything else, you still have to appreciate the power of one word. In all the situations he gets into and all the people he deals with Draper wields the word “What” as a weapon, a punchline, an insult or in whatever way will make him come out on top in said situation.

As a person who appreciates good writing and good performances I can certainly appreciate this kind of thing. Made even easier, of course, when someone takes the time to put a video like this together for all to see and appreciate. Okay, enough from me, let’s get to the video — after the break of course. What?

We get a lot of parody videos sent to us here at The Flickcast and many of them don’t usually make the cut. After all, we have pretty high standards here. We can’t show just any video to you. It has to be funny. Fortunately, the folks over at Funny or Die have done it again. The subject this time: perpetual nice guy actor Ralph Macchio.

In this new video, a fake trailer for a documentary that chronicles Macchio’s struggle to shed his nice guy image so he can get more work in Hollywood, the actor is given an intervention by his family and friends to help him become that bad boy. We see Macchio struggle to overcome his inherent niceness and try to fit in with the other celebrities who’ve enjoyed long careers and have also been known for their less than clean image.

It’s hard to say which parts of this video are the funniest. It’s probably one of the best parody videos of its kind we’ve seen in a long time. Plus, it shows a actor who although content to live his life in happiness actually needs to get back to work. Ralph Macchio needs a comeback. Maybe Quentin Tarantino can do for him what he did for John Travolta?

Check out the awesome video after the jump.
