I was thinking the same thing... it makes you look like you knew what you were doing. Who knows, might be subconcious.

my brother says this hobby sucks, amvs suck, etc.. mainly because they take no tallent.. you can just throw a bunch of clips together and things magically synch. I rememeber a long time ago someone was asking me how they do it and i opened up my editing program.. threw an amv in the timeline, took out the audio, replaced it with some new music, pressed play and everything seemed to synch and work out.. and i was like.. "well you try to time to the music, but it seems this is already doing it without me trying" and he seemed to think then it looks damn easy to do. I used amv footage because that is the only anime footage i had on my computer.
you may have heard of it.. there is this one video called "One Step Closer to the Ballz" and people thought the guy put effort into it until he revealed in a thread that all he did was paste three clips side by side and added the audio.. thats it. it had ok reviews until he revealed what he did in a thread flaming amvs.. i didn't get the chance to see the thread because it got deleted but I heard it had a lot of good points of why amvs suck. that thread was created by my brother and his friend made the video.

man did people get pissed.. he was also quoted by one person to be "best troll ever!"
wished I saw that thread.
