Notes:
Premiered at the Vividcon Premieres Show in 2015.
If you're wondering WTF all of these sources are, they're all from classic movie serials that played as part of matinee movie showings in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. They were basically like Saturday morning television before there was Saturday morning television. Each week, Our Hero fought The Villain and each week, Our Hero ended up in some peril that would certainly spell his doom. At the beginning of the next chapter, Our Hero would escape, often through very cleverly having *already* escaped, either through judicious usage of time compression in the previous episode or straight-up cheating.
This is one of those vids that happened because of other vids. Specifically, I ended up using a lot of movie serials footage in both my Starships remix and Electric Avenue. I became fascinated with their construction and their sheer trope-tastic-ness. At the same time, I was looking for a good source to pair with Flo Rida's Right Round after multiple viewings of Pitch Perfect earwormed me on that song. About three weeks before the Premieres deadline, there was a clicking sound in my head and away we went.
