I'm here because Nicky recced you over at her place.
First thing, I'm more of a 'visual' kind of vidder, meaning that I tend to like a vid more for its 'superficial' value than for all the concept and plot and whatever that can be hidden beneath (even if obviously I like when someone manages to get her/his point across only with clips, even if that's very hard to accomplish imo).
For me a video like this is like candy, because I bask in the effects and the motion and the colors...and the fantastic song (sorry for asking, but I've always liked this song to death, but I know only the Beatles one. Do you know if that one is the original version? Cause now I'm confused *lol*).
So, I have to honestly admit that I was so taken in the pretty fucked up stuff that was going on that I missed the plot ^^' I'll have to watch it again to be sure I haven't missed to much anyway :)
So, uhm, we have zombies, and pretty girl from Grindhouse making out with Dean, and then the cool pretty girl is no more but there are still zombies and Wincest too! Do I get the main logic behind the video? :)

And I just couldn't miss the talk about fandom, and freaking out fangirls and sexism...so, did someone criticise some of your vids because they are, like, offending to women?!?
If that's the case I symphatise with your Fuck You...and even if that's not the case, because I can't stand these arguments anymore. I keep seeing them and seeing them and I just want to watch what I like and enjoy it for what it is, and not have to deal with those misplaced crusaders that keep missing the point. Anyway, can't they stop watching stuff if they are so OFFENDED by EVERYTHING? Too much time on their hands, that's what brings on the useless endless discussions and the wanks, not real belief on something.
So, I may have no morality to speak of but I enjoyed your vid and I didn't find it offending at all. Does that make me a bad person?

You just reminded me I NEED to watch Grindhouse...I feel like the only loser that has missed it ^^'
Oh and I'll probably rewatch this again and come back with more thoughts because that's my MO. So, later!

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Aww, I love being recced. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I think the visuals are one of the first things that a viewer connects to. Maybe that's just the way I watch vids. I had so much fun torturing Vegas to make this vid, so it's great to hear someone liking all the effects and flashiness.

This version is from the movie Across the Universe. They took the Beatles' songs and created a musical around them. It's amazing and well worth the watch.

Wincest is always the answer. Sometimes zombies. But mostly wincest. :)

I haven't heard of anyone openly say my vids were offending. When I was making I was concerned about it coming off that way. It seems like so many people are getting offended by things that I didn't want to add to the pile.

If you have no morality for liking it, then I certainly have no morality for making it. YAY, let's dance the dance of lack of morality. *doo doo doo do doo doo do do*

Grindhouse is more about the idea than the execution. When the two movies first came out I was so hyped up about them, but now that it's been a while I can see major flaw. They are still awesome movies though.

YAY, let's dance the dance of lack of morality. *doo doo doo do doo doo do do*
I'm down with that plan.

[thandie.livejournal.com]

Oh I adore effects and flashiness, when it fits the video in question. Lately I've dropped them because of the kind of vids I've been making, that really don't require any fancy stuff, and I've been making manips instead on my last vid. Your Wincest manips are pretty cool anyway, I loved them!
I have a Massive Attack song in mind for a vid that will allow me to play with all the effects I want, and I can't wait :)

Wow, a musical around my favourite Beatles' song? I have to watch that movie like right now.

So, I watched this again and I REALLY loved it, I needed something like this. SPN vids tend to be all the same you know? Mine too *lol* Well, not only SPN I guess...and while I usually don't do much with most crossovers because they are often ship videos that pair up the Winchester boys with some girl from (too often) some soap-operish show or from Buffy, and I don't like neither, yours was so different. So thank you for this!
If you all your other vids use this cool music and odd visuals I think i need to go and download a lot!

And YAY, I'm doing the lack of morality dance right now! We'll run over old ladies crossing the street and drink directly from the milk carton and I'll start making Alien/Dean ship videos to keep up with your zombie videos and the world will fear us and respect us! \o/

Oh, madness apart, I'll look forward to more vids from you then :)

When those movie came out I was dubious about watching them, even if there was one of my cult actors in there (Kurt Russel) and obviously I have a crush on Tarantino and his evil minions. I read so many controversial reviews that I started to fear that they sucked and it was only the diehard fans that were defending it...then I completely forgot about them, till today ^^'
But I'm going to watch them now, because I feel like a baaaad person for dropping something without even watching it *lol*

[thandie.livejournal.com]

I was hoping you would. Even if I still have to figure out how to dance to that *doo doo doo do doo doo do do*. We'll come up with something :)
And thanks for the rec anyway!

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

:) It has jazz hands too.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Massive Attack lends itself well to vidding

Thanks. I thought it would be fun to put so many things in a blender and make something new. I usually don't like crossovers, so it was weird to make one.

YES!

Grindhouse wasn't the best, but it was still enjoyable and an interesting concept.

Seriously, every time we saw a vid at VVC that made us go "Obviously a completely insane person made this... and it's AMAZING," it would turn out to be YOURS. I totally pegged you for either this one or Brad's in challenges. I can't say it inspired a lot of deep thoughts about horror and feminism in me, but I was very impressed by the constructed reality. I wish my various OCD rubrics allowed me to rec it -- obviously my heart belongs to Joanie if picking one. Your Club Vivid premieres were also VERY SHINY, and generally you are a frighteningly talented and demented creature.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanks.

EHeheheh, that is awesome. This one is meta with a lot of flash and icing on top of it.

I'm going to take that as a compliment. :)

Dude, this was just cool! I only know SPN, so I think it makes for a more screwed-up yet shockingly coherent AU - like some lost SPN ep filmed through David Lynch's worst nightmares. Like Saw, if Saw were smart enough to think about what it was doing.

And you are rocking the underground snuff film effects

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I wondered how much of the AU was going to come through. I wanted it to feel like what SPN could be. I had bunches of fun with the effects.

[counteragent.livejournal.com]

I didn't understand this. But that doesn't mean I didn't think it was awesome! Because it was.

I thought the Fuck You was all about making our own AUs (but that's a big theme of mine right now, so I see it everywhere). Kind of like, f-u, we can tell ANY story we goddam well want.

Anyway, awesome.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Wee!

There are plenty readings of this vid to go around.

[dreamsofoctober.livejournal.com]

I really, really liked this video. I thought it was really well slung together and awesome. I understood it, but I kinda wanted a longer summery cause..okay I'm a bit sto0pid, and haven't seen anythin' other then supernatural, so maybe a little story line to read before/after I watched it would have been cool. (And that's not like, bad or anything that's just me being lame and stuff lol.) But the video it's self kicked ass hard core, even if I didn't really understand some of it...okay, feeling lame, I'm going to go...with one last 'awesome and rad'.

[archerstar.livejournal.com]

This vid is AWESOME. Like, OH GOD. You can have my first born, yes?

I can't stop watching it and it's creepy as fuck (because hi, zombies...and zombie strippers) but it's so freakin' sweet that I'm all 'wheeeee...watch it again, yay!' and I'm slowly going incoherent as I run out of words to describe the awesome. So yeah. Awesomeness. Squee. Zombie strippers. *iz ded*

And I have a matching icon. All is well with the world.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I left a bit of room for people to fill in. Maybe I'll write something up too.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Yay, first born!

Thanks. :)

Dude, this turned my brain to mush in the Challenge show. So I immediately knew it was you. ;) You did a really fantastic job of blending the different sources together seamlessly, both visually and narratively-speaking. And I love how the pace and tone of the vid shifts perfectly in time with similar shifts in the pace and tone of the song. The whole thing is probably one of the most unique vids I've ever seen. It's fucked up in a very delicious way and so very you. Definitely one of the highlights of the con.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

EHehhe, I'm both sorry and pleased that it messed with your brain. I thought it was the weirdest thing ever when I made it. I think it's odd that so many people knew it was mine at the con. :)

All the messing with color, contrast, and gamma was a bitch.

The song itself set the pace and I tried to match it. The flow of the story just needed to match the flow of the song.

(OMG, I still need to leave feedback for some VVC vids.)

[tsuki-no-bara.livejournal.com]

i love that you put zombies in spn. :D everything fit so well! and the effects are really cool. two decaying thumbs up.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Ehehheeh, thanks!

[chasarumba.livejournal.com]

Watching this vid in the challenge show was a really gleeful experience -- I remember thinking, "DAMN, I don't really know what this is, but I like it!" You are experimental and bold about vidding in the best sense of both words and this vid felt like an in-your-face celebration (with zombies! and incest!) of those qualities. I love all of the aspects of distortion you introduced...film scratches/dust, the waves, colorizations, the bands of light rolling through frames. It had so much atmosphere. The touches of humor were so great, like the missing reel at 2:21. And I love how you managed to actually ratchet the damn vid up another notch after that missing reel bit, like my mind wasn't already in a blender :-) Disturbing, yeah, and fucking awesome.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I generally do the weirdest vids, so it's great to hear you enjoyed it.

[danegen.livejournal.com]

Hey, I recced this at spnroundtable. The dl link seems to be busted. Any chance of a reupload?

And heh, re-reading my comment up there--I saw Zombie Strippers, and I was meh. You could've done much better.

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the rec. I'm reuploading now. :)

Zombie Strippers wasn't awful, but it wasn't good either. I'm looking forward to watching Bitch Slap now.
