Vividcon Recs: More of Them (Part 2 of 2)

More recs, this time from Club Vivid, Challenge, and the various themed vidshow Premieres.

Get this Party Started (Leverage & White Collar) by [livejournal.com profile] rhoboat  - Shirley Bassey + Leverage + White Collar = Win.

Dance Dreams (TRON: Legacy) by [livejournal.com profile] bradcpu - I didn't like TRON: Legacy that much. But I may like it more for this vid. Such a visual tour-de-force.

Whenever, Wherever (Twilight) by [livejournal.com profile] obsessive24  - Yes I'm reccing a Twilight vid. It's a completely adorable Edward/Jacob slash thing.

Friday (Brazil) by [livejournal.com profile] millylicious - It may be Rebecca Black's Friday, but it's also Terry Gilliam's Brazil. Such a perfect encapsulation of the crapsack that is Sam Lowry's life.

Motown Philly (Psych) by [livejournal.com profile] jarrow  - If you ever forgot how ridiculously physical Psych is... this vid will remind you.

Human (Iron Man) by [livejournal.com profile] barkley and [livejournal.com profile] destina  - God I wish I made this. I wish I knew how to begin making something like this.

Gotta Boyfriend? (Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) by [livejournal.com profile] cherryice  - I thought Scott Pilgrim was nigh-unviddable (because much of it already looks like a vid in a lot of ways), but I've been proven wrong. I love this film and I love this vid.

Planetary (Go!) (BSG) by [livejournal.com profile] cee_m - An entire civilization forced to drive forward because they don't have a choice. But man, can you dance to it.

Sabotage (Misfits) by [livejournal.com profile] millylicious - I just started watching this show with [personal profile] echan  and, let me just say this: such a perfect expression of the crazy.

*

Debauchery in the UK (Lord Byron) by [personal profile] mresundance  - So awesome. Lord Byron really was a rock star. Some great movement in this one. One of my favorites out of the whole con.

Thorn in My Heart (Damo) by [personal profile] laurashapiro  -  A very cool, layered vid based on a K-Drama I'd never heard of. Swordfights and romance!

Land of Confusion (V - original flavor) by [livejournal.com profile] barkley and [livejournal.com profile] destina - I really need to finish watching V, because there's so much in this vid I want to experience. The occupation and revolution set to rock'n'roll.

A View to a Kill (Crying Freeman) by [personal profile] franzeska  - I love this Bond theme (it's so much better than the movie it's attached to). Here it's used to illustrate a low-budget 90s action film which is (apparently) a bit ridiculous. I smiled a lot.

I Swear (Smallville) by [livejournal.com profile] dualbunny , [livejournal.com profile] sweetestdrain , [livejournal.com profile] greensilver  - OMG THE CRACK. I want to write fic set in this bizarro universe. And I didn't even watch Smallville.

*

Crawling Back to You (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) by Radixiscat - A very sweet story about two doomed men who love each other very much. (I haven't seen this posted online anywhere yet).

Hook Shot (multi) by [livejournal.com profile] kuwdora  - I love how this opens with a shot of Kuwdora's iTunes. It says everything we need to know up front:  this is her mental movie playlist of awesome kickass women. I can't really argue with that.

I Wanna Go (Angelina Jolie) by [livejournal.com profile] millylicious  - A kinetic adoration of all things Angelina Jolie.

Music Again by [livejournal.com profile] f1renze - Mr. Miyagi and Daniel-san complete each other. Very well put together.
 



So that's everything from the DVDs! As with every Vividcon, there were a lot of great vids from past years played, but I so don't have the brainspace to start making recs on those.

To bed with me now. Or... well, after I finish editing a review for Classic-Horror.com. Then bed.
