People's low standarts for AMV

[alcea]

So it seems nowadays all you need to do is:
1) Pick highbeat or derpy song (Bonuspoints if Linkinpark)
2) Choose insanely popular/concurrent Anime
3) Gobble together scenes however you wish. (Quality ? Pscht. Get outta here. We want to churn out one a day !!111)
Don't even bother removing subtitles or matching the scenes to the song.
Noone will notice random text.
(Lipsync ? Nahhhh ! Too much work.)
=>
Yay people like this AMV !

...
•Or just scenes from random shows cut together with insane masking and 100+ workhours put in.
Just for the flex.
•How about we add random sfx and voices to break the immersion.
Flip the song. We want confusion
Ppl love sequence breaks !!


Jokes aside:
Is this normal ?
I see noone ever attemping lipsyncs in AMVs ever (unless comedy)

And Subtitles ?
Isn't this like a cardinal SIN of AMVs ?
And ppl are like "Mkay. " ?

SFX Gallore: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TCxycviyn2U (some match the beat.. But is *peng peng* really what we want ?)

Only thing I can say is:
Wat ?!
Did decades of LinkinPark and Emo AMVs fry ppls brains n expectations SO hard they can't see quality
anymore ?
(And yes, "taste" is subjective, but c'mon!)

We saw the same complaints back in 98...

As access to editing technology gets easier more people try and thus there is more "dirt" to dig through before you find the diamonds.

It's a debate that never ends.

I also feel like survivorship bias for the videos from wherever you're yearning for. Especially the Linkin Park comment calls back to the complaints I saw in my youth [benafflecksmoking.png] There are always going to be people making the videos you like, and there are always going to be people making the videos they like! No reason to complain about hobbyists doing cheerful hobby things. Hope you find more videos of the type you enjoy.

Surprise, the amateur hobby has amateur editors
