FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE IT STOP! TURN IT OFF!

Postby CaTaClYsM » Sun Jan 19, 2003 7:15 am

Tell me if this happens to you. You try to sit down to watch an anime. As you watch it you start getting songs going in the back of your head. These songs start running around and before you know it your are looking at the anime trying to fit a song to it or going "hey, it would work perfect with this". I try to just sit down and casually enjoy anime but if I am working on an AMV I cannot watch anything. Except for the anime I am doing the AMV to. I just want to know how to turn that little AMV gremlin in my head off.
So in other words, one part of the community is waging war on another part of the community because they take their community seriously enough to want to do so. Then they tell the powerless side to get over the loss cause it's just an online community. I'm glad people make so much sense." -- Tab

It happens the other way around for me, trying to enjoy a song but either a previously created AMV pops into my head or I keep getting more AMV ideas. I think I have six running around now.

I have that problem for both the TV AND the radio. I carry a little book around with me(yes, it's retarded, I know) and write down the ideas for later. I now have around 20 ideas currecntly. ^.^ I can never turned the damned thing off inside my head, so I use it to my advantage.

That's not Knuckles. It's Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2.

Thanks for bringing back an almost dead thread with a pointless post :?



Usually I get the idea for an AMV when I'm listening to a song. Pieces of an anime just kind of fit into it and then I flow with that.

Same here. In fact, thats all I think about now when listening to music.

Actually I have this, but don't consider it to be a problem. I like being able to make up new ideas and use them... only problem is currently I can't make any new videos and this problem has me up to about 30 projects or so I want to make... you people should just SEE MY list... I'd show it on the Suggestions board if ya know, I didn't want them stolen. It's just long cause of the whole "hear a song, start picturing anime" thing.

Oh yes it's terrible, I just made my first AMV and now every anime I watch I think about some song. Today I was thinking to use Anathema for a certain anime.
