Go watch the videos to Kylie Minogue's "Come Into My World" and "Love At First Sight" and try saying that with a straight face.


Never seen those, but I was generalizing anyway. Sure there are some good music videos, I just think the vast majority of them are not entertaining.


Or check out Chris Cunningham and Michael Gondry's videos.

NME, obviously you're just sticking around for the fine, intelligent company, huh? I mean come on, man. For someone who prides himself on having such a "unique" view on shit, you act like you're better than everyone else and soaring above it all when you hang around and don't even "like it." You're free to leave at any time, but I doubt you will. You seem like you have nothing better to do with your life. Don't bother bringing drugs into this arguement. If that's the only thing you have against me, you're the most ignorant shit I know. The way you make a total ass of yourself on a nightly basis is damn near approaching "SAMMY" level. Tone it down, man. People are gonna be surprised they have to hear this shit from ME, of all people, and you know what I'm talking about.

Hmmm.. let's ask the questions why do I like the things I like. People have their own reason for liking things.. I like anime(don't think I need to list reasons), I've liked music videos before I started watching AMVs, I use to record them on my VCR, and I like music. Also it's a form of entertainment.. one thing to say is I like it because it's entertaining. 6 years ago I saw amazing home made music videos using anime on the internet.. and I got hooked. I never started making them for other anime fans.. I felt they are good advertisement.. I made my first video mainly for non amv crowds just to stir up some curiosity.. never started for you guys(I said started OK. now Sharin' is pretty fun.).. there's also some emotional side to it.. good for expression IMO.. great for storytelling,etc,etc,etc.. there's a various amount of reasons for me liking it. blablabla [/end of pointless like rambling... meeeeehhhhh.... >.<]

Well, I like watching AMVs because I like to see the emotions they express. When I'm sad I love watching sad AMVs^^
And I also get to know some good songs.
I like making AMVs because it's just fun to make them, and I have a great feeling when I'm finished with a video. And sharing the AMVs with others is great, too^^

Me? There's just a lot of creative room to manuever and have fun.

I have to say that my staying here originally can largely be attributed to a good, activity-oriented community and the OT section along with it. Since then, it's just the activity-oriented community. It's a living creative context without much pressure.

Making and watching AMVs in the context of the community is good. I enjoyed AMVs without this context, but they mean so much more when you look at them 'from the inside'.

Well, amvs have always been like a hobby to me. The good point in creating amvs is that you can do what ever you like.

Yes and they can give you a nightmares. For example guy in 40's using sailormoon outfit or something. *bwaaah*

The only reason I edit videos are to point out plot elements and themes that are common in both the anime and the audio. Hell, that's not how it started, but that's what it ultimately became.

And iron chef-wise, for fun. It's a challenging competition that's very different from many things today, and it makes me feel special.

Every AMV looks at a certain anime (or animes) from a certain angle dictated by the song and the maker's POV and thus sheds a different light on the series and lets me notice new dimensions or new notions in the show that I haven't noticed before.


I used to base my anime choices off of its AMVs... because if the fans can point out things I like then maybe its worth my time....

if I continued to do this I would never be interested in seeing Naruto

no offence to the really awesome Naruto vids out there but a good portion of naruto videos suck... same with full metal alchemist :P Though I must admit avoiding the BAD Naruto videos and watching mostly the good ones has actually interested me in the series :P

I like alot of Chris Cunningham's work, though most of it is really creepy.. my favorite from him would be Bjork's All is Full of Love... that was just awesome... and I Love Michele Gondry's work too, alot of fun stop motion stuff... especially Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind that movie was awesome :)

But it would seem that a good portion of most pop music videos now a days is nothing but booty-shaking and breasts... and pimping my ride and showing off every bit of money they have big houses big cars, lots of chicks dancing...

being a woman that is not a lesbian, breast and booty shaking doesnt do it for me... I dont mind it in anime so much cause 90% of the time its for humor. But I can see why some people would say that REAL music videos suck... Theres only a select few directors that dont actually suck in the MV world :P IMO
