I'm back! :O! Did ya miss me?

Topic: Fanvids. I'm in that kind of a mood today -- anyone got some good ones to link to?

(*tries to get 'Gay Boyfriend' out of head* Thanks, Becca. xD)

[timjr.livejournal.com]

Yes!

And... I don't know many good fanvids, sadly. D:

[muji]

If you have the opportunity/inclination, go YouTube 'Gay Boyfriend'. It's a fanvid for Disney's 'Hercules'.

[innerbrat]

Steeeeph I got into an argument with a 'evolutionary psychologist' trying to explain to me that polyandrous relationships are doomed to failure because of the way male and female brains are hardwired differently.

*cries*

[muji]

I don't know whether to make faces at the other person, or to inquire as to how in the world you get yourself into these kinds of arguments.

[newredshoes]

Steph, they are predicting snow here. Along with with rain and other gross cold things. I WANT IT TO BE SUMMER AGAIN.

Hi! And yes!

[muji]

Hi! *smooches* Sorry to hear about the cold things, though I will say that I have a glimmer of momentary hope for cold things, because I bought two new pairs of boots this weekend.

[canadabear.livejournal.com]

Welcome back!

Alas, fanvids are something I've never really gotten into.

[muji]

Thank you! Though I'm with you at not wanting to be at work.

It's seriously odd, being into vids. Like -- I watch VH1 as I get dressed, and I saw the Coldplay vid for 'Viva la Vida', which I hate as a video, because it's not the BSG fanvid I envision for the song.

[silveraspen]

*dashes in before running off to work*

You have seen the Doctor Who vid "Handlebars," yes?

[muji]

Nny linked it once upon a time, I think it was. But it was recently, and yes god that vid is so cool. *bounces*

[sdelmonte]

I have no fanvids. Indeed, we barely have LJ today, and I barely have any time for anything. Work just keeps getting to be more fun!!

[realmrsreynolds]

Sigh. And Aly and I want to do Sallie/Joe stuff too. *pouts*

[hands-of-blu.livejournal.com]

Doctor Who:

What Would Brian Boitano Do? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RmFTFyz8o8)
Skullcrusher Mountain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jc8RHHa_CF8)
I Just Can't Wait To Be King (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD6iyg-jy-I)

Portal, sorta:

The Device Has Been Modified (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOy8TIqt_tc)- it's actually an Evangelion fanvid, but the song is entirely remixed dialogue from Portal

Resident Evil:

Still Alive (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OMlXaR_OR4). Spoilers for RE4.

And, er. They sort of speak for themselves:

Half life: Full Life Consequences (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHxyZaZlaOs) and Half-Life: Full Life Consequences 2: What Has Tobe Done (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8yHguvYYyQ). They're fanvids, using Garry's Mod (http://www.garrysmod.com/), of Half-Life fanfiction apparently written by a twelve-year-old with rabies. Advanced rabies.

He's also got HALO, Metal Gear, and I think Star Wars fanfiction in a very similar vein, but... well, just watch the vids and you'll get the idea.

[realmrsreynolds]

...Wow. *reserves for lunch break*

In other news: What's up lady? Good weekend?

[innerbrat]

SHOT THROUGH THE HEART!

I counter this cynicism with Shayera and John sweetness! (http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1gxk3_amv-justice-league_creation)

[kotorjedi-amaya.livejournal.com]

*looks at Delicious toolbar* Thank you, Delicious.

I have:

-Iron Man (movie) set to Viva La Vida (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNOd1ZsWs68)! Very well done.

-Half-Life in 60 Seconds (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slRsexrhbG8)

-A rather cool Avatar Season 3 trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9cocx7Srk0).

-The Dark Fortress (http://www.wegame.com/watch/The_Dark_Fortress/), aka the Joker sceen from the Dark Knight done in TF2.

-The Dark Knight trailer done in Toy Story (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QFWBFIEuig).

And I think that's all I got for now.

[realmrsreynolds]

...omfg awesome.

[kali921.livejournal.com]

I came across a superb Phoenix fan vid on YouTube once, but now I'm kicking myself for not bookmarking it because I can't find it. Waaah!

However, I found this one months ago and posted it on my LJ because I was so impressed with what these people did with a budget of probably less than a thousand dollars. Some very energetic and devoted DC fans decided to make a film of Mike Grell's seminal Green Arrow story The Long Bow Hunters:



The opening sequence and credits are very arresting, what with Shado's entrance and the choice of music and the credits. The time it must have taken to draw on Shado's tattoos alone is pretty formidable.

Sometimes canon is far better than anything made by fans. That's why, over ten years later, people still point incredulously at sequence of She-Hulk meting out a butt whupping to Dr. Doom and gape at all the erotic subtext. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnVWwom4_50) (I'm still not sure how this got by the censors.)

And turning to kaiju fandom, I always point to this one as an example of really fun editing: A remixed trailer for Godzilla: Final Wars utilizing the spectacular soundtrack to perfection. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iZfWTqcyaw) It must have taken hours and hours to sync up the percussion bits so well. (Also, this trailer has everything: hot men in leather trying to pound the crap out of each other? Check. All out kaiju melees? Check? Sydney and Beijing getting wrecked? Check! King Caesar? Check! Etc.)

And for a much darker take on what was already a surprisingly dark film for the genre: Killing Joke vs. Gamera. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gROXtuxlYcI) Perfect song for when Gamera went all Punisher while fighting Irys and took out half of Tokyo in spectacular pyrotechnic displays.

[kotorjedi-amaya.livejournal.com]

That She-Hulk? Was amazing. The Gainaxing! The Simon-Templeman-as-Dr.-Doom! The only question is why I hadn't seen this before. Thanks for sharing!

[mmausten.livejournal.com]

Pretty much all the good fanvids I've seen are from The Office:

Just Schrute It (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgqWdkos7JU): a trailer for Casino Royale featuring the one, the only Dwight K. Schrute.
Pam Pong (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJQA_vjkSb0): a Jim/Pam fanvid just possibly set to the best song ever.

[realmrsreynolds]

*beams* Awesome.

[pheliskougra]

Plasma Saber AMV: Ryu Hayabusa kicking all kinds of ass with captured Demon Clan technology.

Best of Bedazzled: The Devil being devilish.

[kotorjedi-amaya.livejournal.com]

ACK. WHY DID YOU PUT THAT NINJA GAIDEN VIDEO UP.

Now I want to play this game, and I don't have a 360. ;-; Oh well, at least the music is cool.

[genarti]

Not from work! At home I have a bunch bookmarked. (If you want cracky Ouran vids, I have approximately 30 billion. Or, uh, probably a dozen or so.) I will try to remember to come back and link some things. :D

Man-Eater Sharpay.. Ryanawtc 100% x infinity.

[adiva_calandia]

*cough cough self-pimping cough*

:D?

Wow, that song is a lot slower than I remember it being.

[moofoot.livejournal.com]

Oooh fanvids. Yes!

Renegade (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sY_xj_FQNeQ) - Young Guns, with 'Renegade' by Styx. Such a good video, that sums up the first movie.

Stayin' Alive (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtwpU4dXiZs) - general Star Wars, GODDAMN HILARIOUS IF YOU NEED A LAUGH.
Money Honey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUVfK3JvyXQ) - Han/Leia, very good match with the song.

Not a fanvid, but the chase scene (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RogtNT-pEF4) from 3:10 to Yuma, the audio is a little soft but it's lovely.

[will_scarlett]

I'm not sure since I don't make fanvids, but can post some that always make me smile.

James singing in MacBeth, Scottish accent for the win.

A cute silly Tumnus and Lucy one set to 'Leaning on a Lamppost.'

Winnie the Pooh singing 'A Paradox'.

A Kate Winslet mix to 'Don't Speak', where she's being very much Demeter with a sense of her power and sensuality.

Now I'm backing away from youtube, enjoy these.

[firstcptjack.livejournal.com]

Candymen (http://www.duckiescave.com/misc/308), a men-of-fandom celebration kind of thing.

Into the West (http://youtube.com/watch?v=LGZ6Ynj-2Mc), Doctor Who, Donna-centric.

Glory Box (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cygf93T0yVE), GDL singing, Jack/Ianto fanvid, Torchwood.

My favoritest favorite: This night (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WXrtjMWOMg), a study of Jack, Torchwood.

[capt_angie]

Thanks For The Memories - Jack/Ianto


And. Um. A bit of shameless self pimping cause it's my first - and so far only - fanvid, and I'm a wee bit proud of it:
