N1njaSquirrel Posted March 20, 2015 Time to post your awful/awesome AMV's guys. (Inspired by this comment in the random thought thread) This is my favourite: Oh wait... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted March 20, 2015 You guys deserve a palette cleanser after that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N1njaSquirrel Posted March 20, 2015 That ship happens one is fantastic, but just a warning, slightly NSFW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clyde Posted March 20, 2015 I really like Ship Happens too. edit: possible epilepsy warning on this one, I don't know much about epilepsy. and Are ones I saw recently and enjoyed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N1njaSquirrel Posted March 20, 2015 I didn't think Nichijou was all that great, but god damn their AMV's are fantastic: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted March 20, 2015 Fuck, normally I'm all about terrible shit, but there are so many crappy AMVs out there that I'd rather just post legitimately good ones. Just imagine I posted a bunch of Linkin Park AMVs with that Windows Movie Maker rainbow effect applied to everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N1njaSquirrel Posted March 20, 2015 Fuck, normally I'm all about terrible shit, but there are so many crappy AMVs out there that I'd rather just post legitimately good ones. go on, post the worst one you can find. Just so I know how deep the rabbit hole goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick R Posted March 20, 2015 In this direction, there's always https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NboSeVfWph8 Despite getting the ball rolling on this I actually don't know much about AMVs. But in 2002 I wanted to download videos to watch and for some reason AMVs were the only thing I could think of to look up. Probably because my friend had this one on his computer. I wonder if any really weird bands have been used for AMVs. Like, is there a Von LMO AMV? A Nomeansno AMV? EDIT: Oh man, . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted March 20, 2015 Kinda NSFW, lot of rape mentions in the last few seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merus Posted March 20, 2015 go on, post the worst one you can find. Just so I know how deep the rabbit hole goes. oh, you're asking tegan to post the worst thing she can find on the internet speaking from experience, that's not wise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted March 20, 2015 I wish we could embed Dailymotion videos so bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted March 20, 2015 Mildly NSFW. Most of the footage in this one is taken from a commercial for Internet Explorer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted March 20, 2015 I've descended into the world of Simpsons AMVs. God help up all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1Qcx_RuQWw I think I should probably take a break from this thread for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tberton Posted March 20, 2015 I'm posting in this thread because tegan has "found the worst possible AMV. Like, the WORST." But she doesn't want to quadruple post., Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben X Posted March 20, 2015 That code monkey one is really good. I could probably have been fooled into thinking it was the official, bespoke video. Also, I really liked that song and it's inspired me to check more Coulton out. I didn't realise he went so Nerf Herder-y. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ozzie Posted March 20, 2015 I liked the moment when the pig talking synched to the siren sound effect. And when the turtle(?) said "it was just incredible". Yup, worthy of being called the worst. But...it's real. And heartfelt. Sure, it crosses Linkin Park with Dragonball Z with spoken statements after the 9/11 attacks, but if those are pretty much only the cultural touching points that resonate with you, then you might somewhat be limited in expressing yourself. Didn't help that they were somewhat unskillful in that regard, too. How does this all relate to another? What connects thematically DBZ with statements about the 9/11 attacks? Kinda nothing, the visuals are unconnected from the audio, but you know, it feels right. There's sad face, a villain, there's action, a determined face, there is destruction, there's an angry face, there are monsters...yeah, point well made. Thanks tegan!

Twig Posted March 21, 2015 Welllllllllllllllllll Dragon Ball Z's repeated plot device is that some bad dude or group of dudes is threatening to destroy or conquer the planet Earth, and they fight back and win. That lines up pretty smoothly with the theme of striking back at the terror--- okay barf i'm done sorry also i have no idea where linkin park comes in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apple Cider Posted March 21, 2015 THI(S IS THE BEST ONE EVER Okay, I have no idea how to embed Youtubes, this is really horrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patrick R Posted March 21, 2015 TEGAN OH MY GOD. Everything about that. It reminds me of after the Oklahoma bombing certain radio stations played a Live song mixed with news footage. There's a spectrum of tasteless "disaster tribute" music where Bruce Springsteen's album "The Rising" is on one end and on the other end is someone putting 9/11 news audio over terrible nu-metal and then putting Dragonball Z over that.
