You've heard "Paper Planes" before, but you have definitely never heard it like this.

No matter how many time you have heard "Paper Planes" before the infectious tune from English rapper M.I.A. never seems to get old.

Now a YouTuber with a black belt in editing re-imagined the track and is making us fall in love with it all over again.

Using clips from 210 different movies to sing the lyrics, YouTube channel The Usual Suspect remastered the song in a mind-blowing mashup that's going super viral.

Watch it here.

Also known for his film, TV and game reviews The Usual Suspect seems to love all things pop-culture and has created a number of other similar mashups for different tracks.

For "Paper Planes" he grabbed clips from classic movies like The Silence of the Lambs, Jumanji, Shrek, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Thor: Ragnarok, Pulp Fiction, Home Alone and a couple hundred others to sing the lyrics and also found the perfect samples for the song's cash register and gunshot hook.

The only thing crazier than the mash up is imagining how long it must have taken to put it all together.

The thing is a masterpiece.





Though everyone seemed to agree that the samples used for the hook were the highlight of the video.

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
