Video: Christoph Waltz gives a brilliant dramatic reading of the Sesame Street theme tune

That's a bingo!

That’s a bingo!

JOE has always wondered what Quentin Tarantino’s version of a Pixar film or Disney cartoon would be like.

We imagine that guns, blood and an endless amount of references to pop culture and cheeseburgers would feature quite prominently. Kids definitely wouldn’t be traumatised at all.

Only Samuel L Jackson seems to be able to deliver QT’s dialogue with more aplomb than the Oscar winning Christoph Waltz and his dramatic interpretation of the classic Sesame Street theme song is just wonderful.

Who knew that the adventures of Elmo, Cookie Monster and Kermit the Frog were secretly all about despair and darkness?

Take a look.
