After a LONG LONG 2 days(?) of people posting on forums. I've decided to join in. I loved all the videos actually. There were to few some that were visually appealing yet lacked plot. There were the few that had such great concept. Yet lacked all the necessary plot to drive the audience to applause. I don't want to bring back the flame wars but I just want to voice my opinion.
When it all comes down to it though... The creators of AMVs are there to give us THE AUDIENCE one heck of a show. I think they did their job at AX AMV 2009. So CONGRATZ all.

(2 thumbs up, and 1 toe)
Sure there were MAJOR technicallity problems of DNR. (I forgot, but I think I got to talk to the creator after the ceremonies as he even pointed it out) but he gave what the audience found entertaining. I mean... nobody else was going to do it...?
And sure it DID have it's funny moments (as MichaelU said in the forums). But majority of it (if you payed attention the second time instead of heckling at it) WAS dramatic
But the genre is of the viewer's perspective. The audience had no problem.
It's actually elusively obvious that the ones putting such an entertaining video down are it's opponents.
But please... No more nasty feedback.

(thought most were good-intended constructive criticism)
We the audience enjoyed every BIT of AMVs that were screen... Heck... I'd go through it again and AGAIN and AGAIN and... etc.
That's all that really matters. So give DNR a break.

I'm actually excited to see ALL the videos up... I can't seem to find DNR & Code:Roll though. Any links?
I'm through voicing my opinion on this subject... I'm gonna get back to some PWNage on BF2.
