Vividcon Recs: Many of Them (Part 1 of 2)
First of all, there are no recs of Apocalypse West vids, but they were all awesome, I thought.
Second, I'm splitting this up between stuff from Premieres and stuff from everywhere else. There may also be a third post of non-premiering recommendations.
With that said,
here we go...
It's the End of the World as We Know It (Community) by
danegen - My basic reaction to this is "Holy crap how am I not watching this show?" So that's awesome.
Caramelo (Miami Vice) by
franzeska - I've never seen Miama Vice, but I didn't need to. The way this vid moves is incredible. And it tells a great story about a female cop buddy team.
You Told the Drunks I Knew Karate (Doctor Who) by
settiai - RORY! This is not to say that every Rory vid is excellent. This one, however, is. An adorable story of a boy and his love for a crazy person.
Lost Girl (A Character Primer) (Lost Girl) by
hellpenguin - This one's a little rough around the edges, but it's adorable and fun and totally sold me on this show. I think that counts as a win.
House by the Sea (Spartacus: Blood and Sand) by
jarrow - An emotional journey with a great use of the musicality. Also, damned pretty.
May I Suggest (Up) by
absolutedestiny - Dammit. Don't watch this if you don't want to get sniffly. Just the first few notes into my rewatch on the DVD and I was tearing up. Powerful, powerful stuff, all managed with hard cuts and no effects (at least, not as far as I noticed).
Roll with the Changes (How to Train Your Dragon) by
fan_eunice - So much awesome in this vid. Eunice just knows how to take you for a rollercoaster of action, adventure, and emotion. This song couldn't be more perfect for the subject.
We Rule the World (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) by
cherryice - Apparently My Little Ponies are awesome now. This vid told me that. God, I'm gonna have to watch this show now.
Don't Forget Me (Buffy) by
obsessive24 - The Riley vid you didn't know you needed. Riley's story from his point of view, not Buffy's. Some stupendous use of paralleling images and motion matching.
High Voltage (Stargate) by
kuwdora - A powerful and comprehensive look at the Ancients influence on the human race in the various Stargate series. Even for a guy like me who missed every arc episode, it's amazing.
Thistle and Weeds (Game of Thrones) by
sisabet - I don't watch Game of Thrones, but this is just so damn well put together. I can't even start to talk about it. I've already sounded like an idiot once trying to.
One Foot Wrong (Batman Returns) by
dualbunny - Why aren't there more Catwoman vids? Seriously.
Hold On (Whoniverse) by
flummery - Perfectly captures the driving energy that is Sarah Jane. What a magical way to end the Premieres show...
That's all for now. Recs from Club Vivid and some of the other shows coming tomorrow or Saturday.
