Oh btw, that interview from from awhile ago.. wish I had actually looked into it more instead of just winging it the interview.. I do believe AMVs are still art, but not so much with the examples I had mentioned in the interview (or rather, with better examples of why I think so).

Either way, whether AMVs are art or not doesn't really matter. I just hate the condescending tone/attitude of people that look down on editing AMVs.

PS - the "Your Gone" avatar was my a-m-v.org profile pic for that short period of time. Nice.

I listened to the interviewer for about 10 seconds and then closed it even before they got to Jay. He was annoying enough that I didn't want to bother.

ok I'm not even listening to the interview lol the your gone pic is from my favorite amv, Chiikaboom's cascading despair (made at the ripe old age of 13) you can tell, cuz it was writen in Canadian :3.

and "Your Gone." Oh Koop

lol!

Is it art or not art? That is a stupid question. I never understood why people even ask this irrelevant question. No matter what is said, people who believe it's not art will believe so and likewise to those who believe it is art. People will always be narrow minded and that won't change, so why bother questioning it?

Deng, nice dude!

Now bring back RDS TV

Koop laughs like a jolly fat guy

Actually, while it started pretty much on the same loop as all the other discussions of it, I liked the way you managed to keep it rational and non-defensive Jay. The last thing AMVing needs is people running around screaming "it's art you bastards! Believe it!".

Well done, I enjoyed that
