This is meant to be one of those rabbit holes you sometimes find on the internet. If you are interested in movies and movie-making, you might be interested in this one as well. Like Alice, it depends on your curiosity if you actually want to fall down that rabbit hole or not. Anyways... I'm late... So if you're wondering what a rabbit could possibly be late for, you'd have to follow me I guess...

Just to be clear: I'm not talking about the song by Lorde, although I'm sure it was inspired by the actual thing. So what is a supercut then? According to Wikipedia: "A supercut is a genre of video editing consisting of a montage of short clips with the same theme. The theme may be an action, a scene, a word or phrase, an object, a gesture, or a cliché or trope." This means that a supercut is more than just a collage of random clips. It uses clips, to tell a new story. Often times it is used to show more meta-level aspects of movies but it could be really anything if you are creative enough. Most people have probably seen something that fits this description but If you are still unsure what it is, here are some of my favorite ones:

Now that we know what it is and what it can look like, the question becomes: Where can we find more of it? Well... you tell me... I'm always looking for new stuff so if you find something good, please share it with me here. There is a small subreddit for it and youtube channels like Now You See It or The Beauty Of make videos in that direction, but I'm sure there is much more out there.
