All right, I'll let everyone know:
I've found a song that would actually work for a DBZ video. It's got a lot of noise and crunch, and doesn't say a whole lot lyrically (in short, it's a perfect match). I won't say what the source is, since I don't want imitators ruining it, but it's not anything by any group I've heard announced up to this point.
I will see what is rentable and even check the libraries for DBZ DVDs or tapes, so that the quality is there (no downloaded crap or Cartoon Network bugs in the corner).
Everyone here who knows me is aware that I do not like Dragonball Z. I think it's shallow, glacially paced at times, and is little more than a merchandising machine featuring musclebound and muscle-brained steroid freaks who fight at the drop of a hat.
However, the song has rooted itself in my brain, and constantly whispers into my mind that a good video could be had from it. I'm listening to it on the way to work and to home, and it will not let me go.
So I'm doing what I considered unthinkable just a month ago: making a DBZ AMV with the express purpose of showing all the children out there how a seasoned veteran does it.
And no, it won't be encoded in .rm format.
