I wish one day I can be this good and have a five star product.

Oh, it's easier than you think. Here's the recipe:

1. Use popular music from famous artists. Hip-hop and rap work best (and music that incorporates elements and styles of either or both). Bonus points for music that samples or incorporates popular songs from other artists. Extra bonus points for using songs that feature more than one famous artist performing on it.

2. Use popular anime. Anything that has been shown on US television will work, but the newer the better. If the anime was broadcast on Cartoon Network, even better.

3. Keep it simple. Don't use fancy software and custom effects. That will alienate your viewers. You want to have your audience think, "I could do this, too. This guy is just like me!" Plus, extravagant effects cover up the anime and distract from the song.

4. Remember to show the DivX™ logo. It's a sign of quality video, like having an Xbox 360™ logo on your console is a sign of quality hardware.

5. Choose an appropriate title. Ideally, it should use the whole or parts of the song title and feature the anime title or names of the characters featured in the AMV. For example, character profile videos should have the subject character's name prominently in the title. Romance videos should include the names of the featured couple, preferably separated by the word, "loves".

That's it. Lip-flap? If the flaps happen to match the singing, you've got instant lip-sync. The more the merrier! Orphan frames? Audio glitches? Seemingly random footage? Don't worry about it. If the sources you used are popular enough and you follow the rest of the recipe, you should be on your way to internet glory!

I have videos up there!

When I see this shit I think the opinion of the tubers means absolute shit. Even look at how much the video got favorited. I've seen this type of thing a lot and it shows the fact that you can throw whatever you want on youtube but your audience in the end is pretty retarded and your shit could be no better than deal or no deal.

I dunno. If you want good opinions I think there is too much evidence that the community is full of people that are going to lead you in to thinking the wrong thing.

rex, buddy. These people know NOTHING ABOUT EDITING. Literally. Most of the work you put into your work would go unnoticed. Sync, masking, quality, cropping, these people know nothing about that.
Besides, you shouldn't be doing this just to get peoples nods of approval. You should be doing this because you want to. For shits and giggles and all that. Right?

I've been bitching about it for years on this site.

So take that as a fuck you and go screw yourself and good luck next time at making fun of me. Lots of good attempts but you fail again.

I did think maybe something good may come out of opinions on that site but that's not a bad expectation.

Now I guess it's good to put it up there for everyone to see.

Need to play you in some game that has tea bagging and record myself tea bagging you so I can put it up on youtube and have text saying everywhere "lol! lol! lol! lol!"

Do you play team fortress? I got a capture card.. if you do have it.. it'll be quite fun!

Looking forward to it! ^__^

Edit:

I've seen this type of thing a lot

Yep, that's right, for years actually.

Just thought I'd point that out for good measure!

Ok then, if you've known it for years then I need to restructure my comment. You still don't realize that everybody already knows that youtube sucks? God damn you're slow.
