När jag såg Dolph Lundgrens extremt seriösa uppträdande i lördags fick jag en stark aning att det här klippet snart kommer hängas ut - out of context - på andra sidan atlanten. Mitt filmbloggsläsande har tydligt visat att Dolphan är väldigt uppskattad over there och i andan av den nya nationalismen kunde jag bara inte låta bli att - med en enkel liten googlesökning kolla - om och hur snabbt amerikanarna fått nys om melodifestivalen. =) Punga upp med reklampengar nu Google...
Vad tror ni?
Japp, that's right!
Nedan följer ett litet axplock kring reaktionerna från både nyhetssaiter och bloggar;
"Ready for a real wtf (red. anm: what the fuck) moment? Of course you are. Here is Dolph Lundgren doing his version of A Little Less Conversation…"
Kanadensisk sida under "Best of the web";
"Remember former action hero Dolph Lundgren? Like William Shatner and David Hasselhoff before him, Dolphy boy thinks he can do the music thing as well as anything else in life. This is one of the best videos I have seen this year – you’ll never hear Elvis done like this again."
Vancouver Sun, under "Best of Youtube";
"I have no idea what this is for, but I now know that Dolph Lundgren is now Sweden's version of David Hasselhoff. Watch in amazement as the action movie hero sings an Elvis song very, very badly, plays the drums, and performs Karate. Awesome."
Blogg som även översatte melodifestivalen med (ah, yes, the festival of melons);
"He has a 3rd degree black belt in Kyokushin karate and a Masters in chemical engineering. He could break all those blocks with the powers of science and awesome, then make sweet love to the glacier that birthed them."
Entertainment Weekly - Popwatch;
"Here is an odd song/dance/feats of strength obstacle course, performed by Dolph Lundgren on the Swedish show Melodifestivalen. Well, Dolph, after witnessing the wonder that occurred at 3:00, we have no choice but to grant your wish. Dolph, you are now a platinum member of EW.com’s exclusive PopWatch On Ice…society clique…thing."

Från bloggen - Filmdrunk:
New pickup line: “Do you know how hard Dolph Lundgren can hit?” “How hard?” “Hard enough to break the ice.”
Citat i texten: The flamboyant singing and dancing fest was a clear winner in last week’s television audience ratings, beating 'Antikrundan' — the Swedish version of the Antiques Roadshow — into second place on 2.1 million. [via TheLocal.se]Time out, the highest-rated show on Swedish television was Antiques F*cking Roadshow? Jesus, Sweden. You may have hot blondes, universal healthcare, unmatched literacy, life expectancy, and quality of life, but…at what cost?
At what cost indeed...=)
