cimoreneOh! So I saw Terminator 2 the other day, and I loved it.
If you've ever thought "Hey, why does the male vocalist from Aqua sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger?" - or if you haven't, but now you're going, "Hey, yeah!" - or if you like both T2 and Aqua - then you should watch this T2 vid to "Barbie Girl" that was posted in![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
vidding a little while ago. It's a hilarious crack vid with lots of totally deliberate talky-face and pink trim and lies somewhere between a regular vid and a constructed reality. The idea is briliant and the execution is pretty good, although it's not as polished as the work of a highly skilled and practised vidder.
Then we started watching Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (no spoilers past episode 4), and I looked around for some more vids to that. And, okay, for some reason, YouTube is absolutely filled with shitty John/Cameron shipper vids to what's in a fair way to becoming the entire discography of Evanescence, plus some Within Temptation and a smattering of Amy Lee's side projects. Seriously, dudes. Ahahahahhahahahahha. It's like some bizarre time-vortex trip back to the World of Generic Bad Vidding from five years ago (except, okay, for a distinct lack of Sarah McLachlan).
WHICH BRINGS ME to my point: wouldn't it be great to learn vidding just so I could make one to Nightwish? If you're going to mix metal with cheesy LOTR soundtrack ripoffs and fake-ren faire stuff, why not go to the king of pretentious cheesy LOTR!metal, that loser dude who writes/composes for Nightwish? (Seriously? "Bye Bye Beautiful"? You seriously want to record that, let alone put it on the radio? It's practically too embarrassing to listen to; I can't imagine how the new vocalist stands it.)
Anyway, if I suddenly post a SCC vid to "7 Days to the Wolves", you'll know that all the fumes from adding my recs page to delicious have finally gotten to me, or else the continued snowing even though it's MARCH and is supposed to be SPRING now has.
