Hehe yep it's another Full Metal Alchemist video.
Yep it's a matchbox 20 song that's been done to death on TV
And I'm also still hoping for some opinions both good or bad.
Enjoy!

In any case young babies are easy, say compared to a mobile two year old. AKA a compact engine of apocolyptic destruction.

Hmm, I was actually planning on messing around with this song in the near future =P
As for the video, I felt there was a lot of potential here that was missed out, but some parts were nice (like how you synced the explosions at 2:00 and 2:03). The main issue for me was that it didn't feel consistently upbeat, to fulfill the 'fun' mood part. Some things like the beginning could have used more sync. There were also a lot of serious scenes you used too, and they felt out of place at times since the scenes were sometimes a bit long and seemed to drag. Serious scenes can work, but in this case some were too long and some didn't have much movement. Even some of the action scenes felt a bit long at times. For a video trying to make a 'fun' theme using this song, I would have expected to see a lot of movement/action to match the upbeat-ness of the song. What I mean by scenes with movement are like at 1:04 and 3:17 (just some examples).
Of course, that's just my opinion, and I'm probably unintentionally comparing this to how I would edit it, since I've thought about editing to this before =/
Overall, I found this video alright, it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't amazing either to me. Had this video have more action/movement scenes and didn't have scenes that lasted too long, it probably would have won me over. I just feel that there was so much fun potential in this song.
3/5

*gets due to my love of everything fma related lol*
Edit: It was allright it wasn't great but it wasn't terrible
the quality was pretty good the sync was allright and scene choice was good for the most part
I wished it had been more upbeat tho
definitely had some good things about it though I liked the some of the scene choice
I would have liked to have seen more of ed and al considering the show is about them and a bit more of a storyline 2 it
but anyways it was ok 3/5
I enjoyed it though none the less keep it up
