20:41 <Niotex> uhh utena... hmm not my thing
20:41 <Nojiko> Ditto, but meh.
20:41 <Niotex> I'll check none the less
20:41 <Esrhan> :|
20:41 <quadir> I'm pretty tired of it given my 9 years of watching utena vids but this one stood out in a few ways :)
20:43 <Nunchuck> I hate the anime Oo
20:44 <quadir> I just saw the movie and I didn't like it at the time
20:44 <quadir> althoug the Love is Flowers amv to utena is very O_O
20:44 <Esrhan> only thing that stood out was that odd bar on the right side.

20:56 <godix> quadir: Suprisinging I don't hate you for having me see that.
20:57 <szwagier> agreed - good choice this week :] now gotta do some quickie op :]
20:57 <godix> I didn't say it was good. I jsut said I didn't hate quadir for having me see it
20:58 <G_Q> Op'd
20:58 <G_Q> I thought it was good, but not great.
20:58 <G_Q> There were some points where it felt like it dragged on a bit.
20:58 <godix> It showed some promise for the future from this guy but the videos hitting the recycle bin the moment I'm done with this.
20:58 <G_Q> Also, it sounded a lot like the audio was slowed down from the original.
20:59 -!- shumira_chan has joined #amv-review
20:59 <G_Q> Which felt odd when I was watching it, because all I could think of was "Isn't this song faster?". :|
20:59 <Nolk> ive never heard that song before .. very strange :<
21:01 <Nunchuck> k
21:01 <Nunchuck> done
21:02 <Nojiko> Opped. =o
21:04 <Nunchuck> I don't know how to give bad marks at sound Oo
21:04 <quadir> turn your volume up
21:04 <Nunchuck> I mean I could here it
21:05 <shumira_chan> It's a nice AMV, nothing more, nothing less.
21:06 -!- Koop-ism has joined #amv-review
21:06 <Koop-ism> |:>
21:07 <Koop-ism> i watched this |:>
21:07 <quadir> great
21:07 <Koop-ism> i dont remember it though
21:07 <quadir> cause we're starting the discussion
21:07 <Koop-ism> have to rewatch
21:07 <Koop-ism> |:>
21:07 <Nunchuck> LOL
21:07 <Nojiko> Sorry, I'm back
21:08 <Nojiko> If only people who scanslate were anything like people who made AMVs >.>"
21:08 <quadir> I think the first thing about it I liked was it wasn't overly beat sync'd
21:08 <Nojiko> Some of the sync were nice though
21:08 <Nojiko> The sword fight with the snare drum?
21:08 <Koop-ism> utena is hawt |:>
21:08 -!- Niotex is now known as Nio|Zzz
21:08 * Nojiko drooled.
21:09 <quadir> what time index was that?
21:09 <Nojiko> I know!
21:09 <Nojiko> I dunno
21:09 <Nojiko> Forget, watch x.x
21:09 <Nojiko> It's the first Utena video I saw that wasn't like...
21:09 <Nojiko> Major effects and pure drama.
21:09 <Nojiko> Or just her half naked.
21:09 -!- Fire_Starter has joined #amv-review
21:09 <Nolk> 1:53 the sword thing
21:09 <quadir> she's half naked? I've been watching the wrong vids
21:10 <quadir> is the triple girl lipsync common? I can't remember if I've really seen it that often
21:10 <Fire_Starter> downloading
21:10 <Nojiko> I definately haven't =/
21:10 <Nojiko> Didn't he want comments on his lip sync though?
21:10 <Nojiko> Lol
21:11 <quadir> it's at 2:10
21:11 <Koop-ism> i dont think the lipsync did anything to add to it, a lot of it was mumbling, and the ones wher ethe singer belts out, the lips and body
movement aren't accentuated
21:11 <Fire_Starter> so just watch then hop in on the discussion?
21:11 <Nojiko> The body isn't accentulated: Agreed
21:11 <quadir> Fire_Starter: or hop in after a quick op :)
21:11 <shumira_chan> Is this what it's going to boil down to? The beat at 2:05.7786? The lipsync at 3:07.908?
21:12 <Nojiko> I think his lip syncs were well done
21:12 <Nojiko> But just...
21:12 <Nojiko> Weren't put in at good places.
21:12 <quadir> shumira_chan: nah we just started talking about it
21:12 <Nojiko> It kinda had an "Oh good lip sync! But... err... wtf is it doing THERE?"
21:12 <quadir> but I just noticed the car crashing through the window at 2:25 to the cymbal that totally went over my head earlier
21:13 <Nojiko> That was cool
21:13 <Koop-ism> the lip syncs were alright, it didnt rly feel all that connected to me because there were a lot of lip syncing to mumbling parts where the
vocals weren't audible enough to be the focus
21:13 <Nojiko> I think that was just the sound quality.
21:13 <quadir> mostly I felt he pulled off the "I'm so sexy you can't resist me" thing
21:13 <szwagier> My impression is: nice vid, but too long (it shouldn't go beyond 2 minutes i think) and with lot of detail flaws (like not precise mask or
edgy quality)
21:13 <Nojiko> ... Shouldn't go beyond 2 minutes? =/
21:14 <Koop-ism> best thing about this vid
21:14 <Koop-ism> utena is hawt
21:14 <Koop-ism> |:>
21:14 <Nojiko> Lol
21:14 <Nojiko> SECONDED =<
21:14 -!- inthesto has joined #amv-review
21:14 <inthesto> THIS VIDEO SUCKS
21:14 <inthesto> OKAY BACK TO DOTA
21:14 <Nojiko> Lol.
21:14 <Nojiko> That was the best thing about this video.
21:14 <Nojiko> inthesto comming in to say that x.x
21:14 <quadir> it's tradition
21:14 <inthesto> I haven't actually watched it yet
21:14 <Nunchuck> I didn't like the AMV at all. It was completly boring... nothing exciting , just this one dude who is completly hawt -.-
21:14 <Nojiko> I know.
21:14 <inthesto> I'm just assuming, because I need to play DotA
21:14 <szwagier> NOjiko: after 2 minutes it gets tireing. The joke is wearing off, and it should stop to keep the good impression. It doesn't and the
impression is weakened
21:15 <Nojiko> Eh?
21:15 <inthesto> So uh
21:15 <Nojiko> Joke? =.="
21:15 <inthesto> I'll watch it later?
21:15 <inthesto> The review will probably be over by then, though
21:15 <quadir> is the lens flare in the original anime?
21:15 <Nojiko> Tell you what szwagier: You find a ton of good AMVs that are under 2 minutes...
21:15 <Nojiko> And I'll get back to you x.x
21:15 <Fire_Starter> good beat-sync is all i can think of at the time
21:15 <szwagier> joke, theme, idea - whatever you wanna call it - the thing that entertains in this vid
21:15 <Nojiko> Only videos I've seen under 2 minutes is... clips of AMV Hell.
21:16 <Fire_Starter> there was nothing really ground-breaking in that tho
21:16 <Fire_Starter> and the lipsynching got annoying after a while
21:16 <szwagier> Nojiko: Go check dokidokis vids.
21:16 <Nojiko> No need =s
21:16 <Nolk> the song is boring :<
21:16 <Nojiko> Seen them all years ago x.x
21:16 <Nunchuck> The anime is boring
21:16 <Koop-ism> wasnt meant to be ground breaking, it was an ok video that climaxed to being good at some points depending on whether yer rly paying
attention
21:16 <quadir> it's very true that lip sync does get annoying eventually
21:17 <quadir> that's why I can't stand moulin rouge vids
21:17 <Nojiko> I think it was more of a... casual video
21:17 <Fire_Starter> was it me or did some of the edges look like a de-interlace gone wrong?
21:17 <Nojiko> He wasn't trying to like... compete with it
21:17 <Nojiko> Just having fun at his own pace.
21:17 * Koop-ism haves fun wth nojiko
21:17 <Nojiko> Orly.
21:17 <Nojiko> =<
21:17 <Koop-ism> i mean
21:17 <Koop-ism> stabs u
21:17 <Koop-ism> in the face
21:17 <Koop-ism> :\
21:17 <Nojiko> With a spoon?
21:18 <Nojiko> =<
21:18 <Koop-ism> nope
21:18 <Koop-ism> a rock
21:18 <Fire_Starter> or maybe a rusty spork
21:18 <Nojiko> Oh wait Koop, not this again >.>
21:18 <Koop-ism> in face
21:18 * Nojiko remembers the last time this happened.
21:18 <inthesto> This download is taking too long
21:18 <inthesto> At this rate, I'll have to leave my review posthumously.
21:18 <Nojiko> inthesto: Stop DLing porn
21:18 <godix> FS: Utena is totally shit for source. I noticed video quality issues but it looks like they overcorrected the source and it STILL sucks that
badly. I don't blame the editor for that one
21:18 <Fire_Starter> ahh
21:18 <Nojiko> Godix
21:18 <Nojiko> Do your worst here X
21:18 <quadir> shumira_chan: so what did you end up thinking of it?
21:19 <Nojiko> I wanna see a godix remark on this video.
21:19 <godix> Nah, I've been treating these things relatively straight.
21:19 <Nojiko> Shucks. No fun.
21:19 <godix> Besides, this was better than the neverending train ride last week.
21:19 <quadir> burn
21:19 <Koop-ism> theres one thing i wanna know
21:19 <Nojiko> We have to catch godix REALLY pissed off one day
21:19 <Nojiko> And make him comment on a video xD
21:19 <quadir> neverending train ride to neverending lip sync?
21:20 <Koop-ism> why didnt ne1 tell me how hawt utena is in the tv series
21:20 <Koop-ism> wuts up with that
21:20 <Koop-ism> O:
21:20 <quadir> Koop-ism: maybe it's not?
21:20 <Koop-ism> wut is it
21:20 <Fire_Starter> because they knew you would have a spazm over her? :P
21:20 <Koop-ism> maybe
21:20 <Nojiko> Maybe he shopped her =<
21:20 <Fire_Starter> i can tell by some of the pixels
21:20 <quadir> I dunno is the tv series all making her "i don't want you but your irrisistable I can't say no?"
21:21 <Koop-ism> i dunno
21:21 <Koop-ism> i only saw the movie
21:21 <quadir> same
21:21 <quadir> :(
21:21 * Nojiko seconds.
21:21 <Koop-ism> and most videos ive seen use the movie
21:21 <godix> In the future I hope this editor has someone standing besides him while he edits. This person sole job will be to taser the editor in the
testicles when it looks like he's doing anything even remotely like lipsync.
21:21 <quadir> I wish I knew if this is something he pulled off or not
21:21 <Nojiko> Lol XD
21:22 <quadir> okay I love this car beat sync too much, at 2:25
21:22 <Koop-ism> eh
21:22 <Nojiko> It sounds exactly like something breaking through a window eh? XD
21:23 <Nolk> there are no effects in this amv, arent there :O ?
21:23 <Nojiko> Oh crap, that reminded me that I needed to swear at someone...
21:23 <Nolk> besides the syncing
21:23 <quadir> I totally missed it the first 5 times I watched it
21:23 <godix> There are some annoying effects.
21:23 <quadir> Nolk: transparencies, flashing, lens flare, masking
21:23 <Nojiko> I caught a few, can't remember them
21:23 <Nojiko> Yes, the lens flare
21:23 <Nojiko> =.="
21:23 <Nolk> i dont know the anime <.o
21:23 <Nunchuck> there is flashing
21:23 <quadir> the lens flare is epic
21:23 <quadir> did anyone catch it?
21:23 <Nojiko> Yup.
21:23 <Nojiko> =.="
21:24 <godix> It's easy to miss them though. After watching the video all you remember is all the lipsync. Like the creator was trying to make Shounen
Bushidou lite or something.
21:24 <Nojiko> All lens flares remind me of AMV Hell 3.
21:24 <Fire_Starter> ill just go ahead and say it...the lipsynch made me want to claw my eyes out after the first 30 seconds
21:24 <Nojiko> BLINDED BY THE LIGHT!
21:24 <quadir> masking and trapsarency: 0:22
21:24 <Fire_Starter> back in a few....flipping back to windows
21:24 <quadir> it wasn't that bad on the lipsync
21:25 -!- Fire_Starter has quit [Quit: Fire_Starter]
21:25 <quadir> at least he didn't switch the chars
21:25 <Koop-ism> i just ignored the lipsync rly
21:25 <Koop-ism> |:>
21:25 <Nojiko> I've seen worse lip synv
21:25 * Nojiko looks at his videos.
21:25 * Koop-ism looks at nojiko's pants
21:25 <Nojiko> Errr, yeah. His lip sync was fine
21:25 <quadir> it wasn't a moulin rouge vid
21:25 <godix> I didn't say the lipsync was bad. I said it's too much.
21:25 <Nojiko> Trust me>.>"
21:25 <shumira_chan> The AMV is OK. You're still talking about the beat sync at 2:25, lipsync and masking at 0:22, and I'm tired of that, so I won't be saying much. I'll just watch [link removed] for now, because some AMVs do have some depth of feeling, it's just not the sort of thing discussed in these reviews.
21:25 <quadir> and one of the things I liked about his lipsync was that it wasn't pointless
21:26 <quadir> shumira_chan: if you want to discuss something, CONTIRBUTE :)
21:26 <Nojiko> shumira_chan: We'll get around to that another video >.>"
21:26 <Nojiko> Depth and feeling? What's that?
21:26 <Nojiko> =.=
21:27 <szwagier> well the lip synch didn't annoy me too much - at least it was a lip synch not some completely random flapping
21:27 -!- Fire_Starter has joined #amv-review
21:27 <Nunchuck> There were no feelings or emotions in this video
21:27 <Fire_Starter> agreed
21:27 <Nunchuck> just an annoying guy
21:27 <quadir> but yeah even in the cheesy lip sync his scene choice for it is good
21:27 * Nojiko throws shit into a video editing program, yells at it untill it works and is 1 month late, compreses and uploads
21:27 <quadir> Nunchuck: whaaa? how so?
21:27 <Fire_Starter> didnt help that the song is dull as all hell
21:27 <godix> Nojiko: Depath and feeling are where a video has something more than a superficial point. After seeing hundreds of AMVs I'm pretty sure it's
existance is a myth.
21:27 <Nojiko> Some feeling-less videos are good.
21:27 <Nolk> nunchuck : agree
21:27 <quadir> Nunchuck: it's totally got the girl who's acting disinterested and he's pushy and irrisistable and she's slowly relenting
21:28 <trythil|ohshitediting> i think the general message is that you guys are missing the forest for the trees so badly that your heads are covered in tree sap, but I haven't really been paying attention, so I'll go back to working on this video
21:28 <Nunchuck> this guy in the video is totally gay
21:28 <Nojiko> Lol
21:28 <szwagier> nunchuk: erm , there wasn't suppose to be any? I don't see why he should put emotions in fun/hawt guy vid
21:28 <Nolk> OLolo
21:28 <Nolk> what is the anime about : / ?
21:28 <Fire_Starter> other than the lipsynch, the editing was decent....but overall the video did nothing for me
21:29 <Nunchuck> That was no funny video either
21:29 <Nolk> just the hot guy ?
21:29 <godix> Trythil: Speak up, I can't hear you. I have this sticky tree like liquid in my ears
21:29 <Nunchuck> I couldn't laugh a bit
21:29 <quadir> as for the "pointless" lipsync you can see in scenes like at 1:06
21:29 <quadir> that he's actually chosen a lot of them really carefully to continue the story
21:29 <Nolk> what story ?
21:29 <quadir> s/story/development
21:30 <Nolk> kk :>
21:30 <Nojiko> Right =<
21:30 <godix> Boy wants girl. Boy talks for 3 minutes about wanting girl.
21:30 <szwagier> there was a story? :O i missed it then :S
21:30 <quadir> nah
21:30 <quadir> they totally hook up
21:30 <quadir> (oh man I see where this is going)
21:30 <Nolk> the anime story
21:30 <Nojiko> quadir just thinks it's good because he has a mental image of Utena nekkid.
21:30 <Nunchuck> LMAO
21:30 <godix> Overall the video was just boring. Technically the editor isn't bad but I'd prefer something interesting over something technically ok.
21:31 <Nunchuck> ./sign
21:31 <Nolk> ya sign 2 :)
21:31 <Koop-ism> yer all missing the point
21:31 <Koop-ism> utena is hawt
21:31 <Koop-ism> thats it
21:31 -!- trythil|ohshitediting is now known as FC_FUCKING_EDITING
21:31 <Koop-ism> end of discussion.
21:32 <Nolk> is utena the girl :O ?
21:32 <Koop-ism> yes damnit.
21:32 <quadir> I liked it, but mainly because he managed: 1) not overabuse beat sync 2) lip AND lyric sync at the same time 3) kept his theme... even if it
was for a tad bit too long
21:32 <Koop-ism> O:
21:32 <Nojiko> 10/10 on hawt girl score?
21:32 <szwagier> Koop: but it's not about hawt utena but hawt dude :O
21:32 <Koop-ism> forget hawt dude
21:32 <Nojiko> ...
21:32 <Koop-ism> SCREW HIM
21:32 <godix> koop: Utena was also clothed which kinda ruins the hotness thing. If I just want hot chicks I'll download hentai.
21:32 <Koop-ism> UP THE BUTT
21:32 <Nojiko> Lip AND Lyric sync?
21:32 <Nojiko> As apposed to lip and what other kinda sync?
21:32 <Nojiko> =.="
21:32 <szwagier> then there is too less utena in this vid and too much dude :<
21:32 <quadir> yes where he's got lip sync but the content of the scene matches the lyrics as well
21:33 <Nunchuck> should have been naked
21:33 <Nojiko> Seconded.
21:33 <Nolk> more pr0n
21:33 <godix> Next week we demand a naked woman.
21:33 <Nunchuck> yeah
21:33 <quadir> Nojiko: lip sync being character looks like he is singing the words, lyric sync being the scene depics what the lyrics are talking about
21:33 <Nojiko> Where's an AMV with a naked woman?
21:33 <Nojiko> quadir: I gotcha the first time <3
21:34 <godix> Not here. The video wouldn't have bored me shitless if she flashed some titties.
21:34 <quadir> I thought that made the lip sync a little less boring
21:34 <quadir> and improved the whole theme a lot
21:34 <Nunchuck> I guess that here are some "almost naked" parts
21:34 <Nunchuck> Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
21:34 <Nojiko> Lies.
21:35 <Nojiko> No naked parts in Haruhi.
21:35 <Nunchuck> no way
21:35 <godix> Nunchuck: Crazy chicks don't turn me on. I'm married to one.
21:35 <Nunchuck> "almost"
21:35 <Nojiko> Only bra and bikinis.
21:35 <quadir> since at the beginning they define the characters, then they start interacting and she's like 'ohhh whats this', she starts getting more
"experimenting" by 1:05 and then he's thinking about her a lot, even as the playboy he's fallen in love
21:35 <Nojiko> And bunny outfit.
21:35 <Nolk> cool story
21:36 <Nunchuck> bunny is hawwwt
21:36 <quadir> then around 1:40 they start interacting again, but she is fighting her off and he is all like H4wt utena
21:36 <quadir> anyways I think shumira_chan is a bit right you guys got derailed :(
21:37 -!- inthesto has quit [Connection reset by peer]
21:37 -!- Nolk has left #amv-review []
21:38 <godix> quadir: Of course we got derailed. The video barely interested us enough to watch it, why would it interest us enough to analyze it?
21:38 <szwagier> the discussion went kinda quick this time ::O
21:38 <Nojiko> That's cuz nobody liked the first vid a lot =.="
21:39 <quadir> thanks to everyone for coming out, another vid next monday, watch the thread for a possible new EARLIER time
21:39 <Nunchuck> you should do this on saturday
21:39 <quadir> there is some vid-discussions at other times in the week spur of the moment, so lurk if you like
21:41 <quadir> remember we take submissions! please pm me on forums or email quadir@animemusicvideos.org
21:41 <quadir> we had pretty low suggestions this week so we could use more
21:45 <godix> Now we all go away and curse quadir for showing us these things.
21:46 <Nunchuck> it was fun, bye
21:46 -!- Nunchuck has left #amv-review
21:53 -!- Kionon has joined #amv-review
21:59 <Kionon> My main suee with the video is quality.
22:00 <Kionon> The lip synching is awesome, the ending credits were inspirational, the concept rocked.
22:00 <Kionon> I just had trouble with the pixelation, the edging along the rotoscoping, and the aspect ratio.
22:00 <quadir> shumira_chan: like I mentioned I really liked the lyric sync combined with the lip sync, unlike bushido it actually felt like it had a purpose
22:00 <godix> Utena looks like shit. Deal.
22:01 <Nojiko> I'd bang her for a dollar.
22:03 <Kionon> Well, I can see that I missed the party.
22:04 <Kionon> Pretty much my reaction is fairly simple; I loved the video. I just wish it had been cleaner presentation.
22:07 <Kionon> Anyhow, I probably would have been here sooner, but without any right clock, I lost track of time, and I also had my computer in pieces, since I've finall been able to move into my new apartment.
22:11 <Kionon> I think it's more important to make a video that causes an emotional reaction. You already have the video in your head; the point to actually
making it is to share your vision with others.
22:11 <shumira_chan> Kionon, I agree..
22:11 <Kionon> What good is editing it, if you're the only one who understands it?
23:21 <teya> i thought it was fun
23:21 <teya> the whole feel was like a music vid from mtv
23:21 <teya> all sexy and stuff
23:24 <teya> well, i wanted to add about the lip sync..
23:24 <teya> i got the feel of him saying something and then tossing his hair, or leaning back to accent being sexy
23:24 <teya> talk and pose
23:25 <teya> which imo, is exactly the mtv-like thing
23:26 <teya> perhaps it's too much lip sync compared to other amv's, but i think it's a different style
23:26 <teya> which was refreshing in itself, and why i didn't hate that it was utena
23:26 <teya> usually i see the spinning roses and run in fear
23:27 <quadir> hehe
23:27 <teya> oh, there's another thing
23:28 <teya> i haven't seen too many vids with guys being flauntingly sexy
23:28 <teya> or girls, for that matter
23:28 <teya> it's all cuteness, or dark and reserved
23:28 <teya> this was totally flamboyant
23:28 <teya> michael jackson style, i guess
This video is on a optional-op basis, and thrown in so people have something fun or interesting at the end that didn't make the cut for this week's video choice

FAQ:
Q: How do I participate on this week's discussion now that it's already happened?
A: Never fear! You can post a reply on that week's thread, and continue the discussion there. Don't be shy. We do ask that you please download and op the video before posting here however.
Q: Do I have to read the IRC Discussion before posting?
A: No. But it might give you an idea what other people were saying about it, think of it like reading pages 1-15 of a really long forum thread before posting on page 16.
Q: Was this a one time thing?
A: We'll be doing this every week, Monday's at 9pm EDT with a new video every week.
Q: Can I suggest a video for next week?
A: Yes! Suggest a video you want to talk about or you think would make a good discussion, it can also be a great way to spotlight an editor you think isn't getting much notice or who isn't active in the forums. You can PM quadir on the forums, or send an email to quadir@animemusicvideos.org with your suggestion -- please don't make suggestions in this thread.
Q: What kind of video would you show?
A: We ask that they are fairly new and are solid enough to have something to discuss on multiple fronts. Although we're focussing on undervalued editors and videos, that doesn't mean we won't pick something that has a lot of ops, hits or because of who made it. We'd consider running a bonus vid of something older if it's especially fun.
Q: Can I use #amv-review to talk amv's at other times?
A: Absolutely. Head in and lurk in #amv-review and discuss any video at any time. If people are around they will probably be willing.
