I've been wanting to make AMVs for a while, but have had trouble getting all the supplies together. There's a lot in planning for Moosentertainment, but to be all secretive and in the dark until it's released. Right now, the hindrance is a lack of good movie editing software (am currently stuck with Windows Movie Maker, which sucks), and I need to get a VHS to computer video file. If you can help, PLEASE contact me.
I am a huge fan of anime in general, and I've sampled almost all of it (from Yuyu Hakisho and Pokemon to Gravitation and Hellsing).
I apparently look a lot like Napoleon Dynamite. I hate the movie with a passion (sorry ND fans). I'm not very athletic, but I can pull my own in a sport if I want to. People call me smart, but that's because I take advanced courses. I know I'm far from the smart I want to be. Anyway, enough of the sounds-like-self-pity stuff. Funny on a good day. Completely psycho all the time. Yeah, that's a pretty good summary of me.
Anime:
I started off with Pokemon before I even knew what anime was. Once I knew, Yuyu Hakisho was my first addiction, but only for a few weeks. Ranma 1/2 came next, and I really liked it. Many followed, as my wonderful friends got me into the more advanced stuff (wow, it sounds like drugs). With them, I discovered Saiyuki, Et Cetera, Gravitation, .hack, Naruto, D.N.Angel, Mantantei Loki Ragnarok, Get Backers, Hellsing, Slayers, Love Hina, and others.
My favorites have to be a close tie between Hellsing and Love Hina (depending on the mood I'm in), followed by Azumanga Daioh and Megatokyo. I will say I did read the first volume of Gravitation and have watched some of the anime (I am a guy). It was a good anime and manga, but it just didn't do it for me. I truthfully didn't mind all the gay stuff. It was part of the story. Sorry, rant finished. Overall, I'm a pretty sad anime fan. I have my favorites, but I haven't read a lot of the standard stuff, like Evangelion, One Piece, etc. Maybe someday I will, but I don't know. *shrug*
Music:
The other half to an AMV. I like almost everything except most rap and the really twangy country stuff. My favorite would have to be dance/techno/electronica/trance (whatever you wanna call it) and JPop, favorite groups probably Porno Graffiti, E Nomine, Smile.dk, and Darude & Ville Virtanen (kind of generic, I know). Still, a also like a lot of other songs and artists, like *NSYNC (This I Promise You comes to mind), a lot of classical stuff, and almost anything by Yasushi Ishii (soundtrack for Hellsing).
Other:
I'm sure there's other stuff I should list here. I don't know what, though. Help? Oh, here's my other random nicknames:
Mooseman
Cid the Coatrack
Guako Moley
Karly Spur
Mr. Tickle-Fingers (totally innocent)
K-Money
Fred the Psychotic Hamster
Monica Speer
Ludwig Elchmann
Karl der Großer
Der Stoßenmeister
Um, bye?
