The editing in these were well done, but the audio choices I thought were pretty **** across the board. Segments of them in a standard length clip would have been tolerable, but at full time they just got grating and annoying for me. Your mileage may vary accounting for different tastes, of course.

I'd give a break down of critiques for each, but honestly they all come to that same criticism for me; good job editing, not to my tastes in audio.

Video 01
I didn't find it funny and The JEM logo popups were tacky. Although I realize these are mostly just self-pandering at this point.

Video 02
Despite being 1080p, this had pretty terrible video qualty. The yolo swag caps and glasses were tacky to the max and poorly executed.
Which unfortunately distracted from any good editing that may have been there.

Video 03
This idea was already done much better by kapparomeo: http://www.animemusicvideos.org/members/members_videoinfo.php?v=179576
Only thing this adds is a bit of unrelated self referencing, which you would think we got enough of from the challenges.

Video 04
This is a good all around well made parody trailer. But I didn't find it funny myself.

Video 05
The Winner. Didn't make me laugh out loud, but it was amusing in the right way and really well done.

Preliminary impressions:

1. A whole lot of a jumble. I see wrestling, I see girls. They match the with the discrepant tones of the mashup, but there's very little to convey (or if there's something, I can't see it).

2. It met my expectations. I expected it to suck ass, and it did.

3. Could've used more dynamics, but it's the most promising one.

4. Trailer AMV, 'tis pretty fitting.

5. Good editing, lukewarm idea.

No "AMV Hell calibre" videos in here, as expected. But, I guess it was worth a shot.

I might build upon my impressions eventually, though I guess it'd be more productive to gear up for the next contest.

Vote? Really? Have a rain check.

1: N/A

2: Any good will this AMV built up was shattered over and over again by the over use of those shades and "swag" shop jobs. It just seems like a tarnished effort that failed to mesh properly I'm sorry to say. I'll give props for even attempting to go that extra mile however as I understand why you did it.

3: I don't know. It has potential and flashes of symmetry, but I never truly "get into it" and it never truly hits that point where things start to "click." I suppose it's decent for the effort that was put in, but I left it feeling underwhelmed.

4: Probably my favorite. You had some slick synching going on though you could have easily choose to phone **** in and let random driving clips pad this **** out. Not a bad parody trailer if you ask me.

5: I've once expressed a sort dislike for this type of editing, but that's just a personal preference based on liking how people work with what the anime(s) give you without over use of effects. However, major credit is warranted to the psych-err...guys who took the time to arrange all those clips from different anime.

Damn! It's hard to be funny...

1. Jesus, CC were you really that desperate to mash your favorite two things together? Song only seemed to really fit in, like, one or two places.

2. No, just.......no. The photo-shopped shades and "swag" was just completely unnecessary and added nothing to the video. (took plenty away, though)

3. This one was actually somewhat good. Fit pretty well overall. The pandering is what killed the whole thing for me, really. That, and the fact that it was done before.

4. I really liked this one. Would've won except.....this is a comedy contest. We weren't going for "awesome, but not funny" videos here. If we were, I have numerous ideas I could've fit in myself.
I'm disappointed this is Sentai's entry, honestly. I was expecting him to be smarter than this.

5. I really liked this one as well. Editing was damn good overall, and it all actually fit. Mesh certainly added more to this one that I would have (and thus, makes a better partner than me....)



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFVO0DtMoHQ

This exhibition video is pretty damn good. Fit well, editing was great overall (not perfect but much better than what we're used to, quite frankly), and the song was humorous. The credits portion made me smile, as well. That song was the very reason I would replay Area 88's OP 20 times before finally watching the actual episode.

**** you guys, the exhibition video wins.

1. As much as I like some of the Jem videos, this one didn't really grab me.

3. Pretty good attempt, I'd say it's reasonably close to the one that LawRayLiet linked, although the lip syncing could have been a bit better. Some of the referencing from roman's clip was a bit unnecessary though

4. Didn't get into this one so much, it seemed more focused on being a trailer than an actual AMV. It kinda just reminded me of this other one you made

https://youtu.be/mrklhkeCJ2A?t=58m39s

5. This one would have to be a winner, the song flowed a lot better than the others and the animation was really good.

Avirx8. Good video, the only complaint I have is it did drag on a bit long, but other than that it worked well


I seem to be getting a bit of complaints about the embedded "SWAG" in my video. I compared the videos when I finished them, and I personally found the non "SWAG" version a bit lacking. Once it finishes loading onto vimeo I'll post it for comparison.

btw, I hate that swag bull****, I was trying to make them look really douchey, a bit like in the real clip

4. Didn't get into this one so much, it seemed more focused on being a trailer than an actual AMV.

You do realize there is whole trailer section on AMV News (http://amvnews.ru/index.php?go=Files&in=cat&id=2), right? Also, that in AMV Hell there are a **** ton of non-music based clips, right? If you were trying to say that the clip was trying too hard to sync up with the trailer and not trying to be funny, then I would understand a little more.


I was expecting him to be smarter than this.

What the **** does this even mean. How is me making a video that points out that the two sources are similar something that would lower my intelligence?


this is a comedy contest.

Not from what I watched.


All other critiques are pretty accurate. I didn't try hard to make the trailer comical and was more of trying to make something entertaining.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFVO0DtMoHQ

I legitimately vote for number 6 which does not exist. I enjoyed and chuckled the most with Avirx's not just a clip...and whole comedy AMV. Like others say dragged a little at points but was pretty well done despite that.

3,4 and 5 out of the actual entrants were of note on the better side just missed in being more fun to watch. Clip 2 was ok for a bit yet the hats and glasses become obnoxious as the video itself led into being bland.

3 had an idea and executed semi well just doesn't offer much than what the first half does. It felt paint by numbers, scene and audio go together and that was all.

4 it is a trailer mash up remake yet done so well that its a video that is not a winner yet a good video for getting editing ideas and just enjoying.

5 is the closest to doing comedy and making it funny. Yet drags on after about the halfway mark as the editing is again paint by numbers with the extra nice touch of the talking head scenes....which happen so much the novelty wears off despite the attempts to make it different and fun each time.

Unofficial vote is Avirx's 6th exhibition entry.

Official is probably 5?

Not From what I watched.

Other entries being **** doesn't justify your entry being ****. There's nothing wrong with being unique, even if being unique means being better than everyone else. Frankly, in a competition it's all the more reason to be unique.

Regardless of overall quality, this was meant to be a comedy AMV contest. I expected you to be intelligent enough to realize this. I will be sure to lower those expectations for the foreseeable future.




It's really quite sad that the "AMV Hell elite" are lowering the quality of their clips/AMVs just because everyone else happens to be amateurs. We could have had Titanic...but instead we're settling with making Micheal Bay Transformers.

I'm glad you all liked it. Doing this AMV motivated me to get back into editing.

I love the Mission Cyber Trance soundtrack from Area 88. It's my favorite anime soundtrack. Last summer sometimes I would sit in the backyard and listen to the whole thing from start to finish. I actually haven't seen the anime though. Years ago back when I had Directv it had anime on demand and Area 88 was one of the titles it had. I only watched the first episode but the opening theme stuck with me, It wasn't until last year that I decided to get the soundtrack so I could listen to the opening theme which lead me to the Mission Cyber Trance soundtrack. I have a long anime watch list but I do plan on watching Area 88 soon.

That is just adorable.



It's really quite sad that the "AMV Hell elite" are lowering the quality of their clips/AMVs just because everyone else happens to be amateurs. We could have had Titanic...but instead we're settling with making Micheal Bay Transformers.

I am truly impressed that you were able to fit so many things wrong into two sentences. First off, you brought up the "AMV Hell elite" when only two out of the five entered. Secondly, you seem to like Chaz's clip, so I don't know why you would think it was

lowered in quality. Thirdly, the whole "AMV Hell elite" thing started because Roman was butt hurt about our harsh critiques and not because they thought we made good clips, so bringing that up in the first place was just wrong. Fourthly, we are all amateur

editors. This is a hobby and before this contest there was really no monetary prizes. Even with the monetary prizes, I doubt that was the reason for any of the contestants for entering. I forgot they were even a thing till Zarx announced he was going to close

the contest and I rechecked the thread. Fifthly, from your initial review of my clip you liked the editing quality and said it would have won if I put more humor that pandered to your tastes. Sixthly, why are you assuming I made my clip the way I did because I

knew everything else was going to be ****? I didn't know how this was going to turn out, minus the lacking amount of clips. That is the reason I entered the contest. I also figured maybe someone would find the humor of comparing the two sources, but you

didn't. It isn't like my clip had a serious tone to it, unless you perceived one. Seventhly, why would you want a Titanic? The movie isn't anything special and was highly overrated when it first came out. This just makes you look like a philistine. If you wanted to

go with a generic film masterpiece, why not go with "Citizen Kane" or "Casablanca". Or better yet, why not go with a critically acclaimed comedy, such as "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", to make it more fitting? Lastly, "Transformers" is a terrible comparison.

I didn't use any blatantly racist or ****ty jokes to try to appeal to the lowest common denominator. I also didn't use superfluous effects to try to distract you.

Well, there was a lot fine editing to be seen here, which is always nice to have. The jokes, though, eh... A bit too limp for my tastes, if you catch my drift.

That being said, though, I'm not gonna piss all over these clips. Unlike N.P.C.C, I'm not too much of an AMV purist, and I admit that I have a slight preference over a well-done light show that uses audio just to highlight the visuals than a clever joke with sub-par video editing, so this was overall a nice little treat for me. As a whole, though, I admit the contest could have used a bit more variety (*cough* or entries *cough*), which I'm guessing explains why so many people are taking a shine to the exposition AMV...

Bottom line: a bit lackluster, but a good effort nonetheless. Congratulations to whoever entered...

This post was typed before I checked the names of the editors. Didn’t want to play favourites with my critiquing:

Jem Is The Name, Outrageous Wrestling Is The Game

<sigh>
Hardly any synergy at all; no comedy; barely even entertaining.
If you’re going to overlay text- make it look appealing, please. Don’t use boring, default fonts with no flair… Woooooo!
I don’t know if this is on you or not- but we can hear the start of the “but we’re the Misfits” bit of the Jem theme in some of the samples, like the one at 47 seconds.

As an entry for a comedy AMV contest, this is a real stinker.

JizzInMyPantsFinal

I’ll add to the chorus regarding the swag overlays. Obnoxious enough as they were- they were also out of sync with the video too many times to count.

http://i.imgur.com/YtFIWGD.gif

You deserve to be flogged for this:

http://i.imgur.com/OzMEx6b.jpg

Technical issues aside- the video just dragged on way too long and didn’t entertain. Forgettable entry.

Panty & Stocking - Uncle ****er

Puerile, but that doesn’t really bother me so much.
Lip sync needs work, and on that same token- the syncing to the farts could have also been improved. The pace of the animation fails to match the pace of the song most of the time.

When exactly did my avatar become a police badge? Alright, I got a kick out of that.

It would appear that whoever made this didn’t have access to “CitizenRoman_FINAL-zarx264gui.mp4” and had to settle for copying the video directly from the challenge round; this would suggest that the creator here is familiar with AMVHF politics, but most likely isn’t a member of… the circle. Sad.

Forgettable entry.

Redline Drift

This is an AMV contest, I expected an animated music video, not a trailer.
You brought a cat to Crufts. Sure, one could argue that it’s a nice cat, but I paid to see dogs.
Regardless- the editing job is fine, no complaints there. It just wasn’t anything particularly funny or interesting. Might have worked better as an AMVH short rather than a full, one-minute trailer.

I look forward to seeing what kind of dog you show us in August.

Understanding Right from Wrong

When you order the five entries by title, file size and date- you should see that this entry is shifted to the bottom of the list. Funny, it’s almost as if fate wanted this entry to be saved for last…

I’ll just go on record right now and say that ZombieMesh was and is an absolute nightmare to work with.
She was constantly finding flaws in my editing, always demanding perfection according to her ridiculously high standards. In our creative discussions she would keep suggesting ideas way better than my own, and even when we were in the middle of working on the last great idea she came up with- she would come up with yet another even better one- forcing me to start my segments from scratch. The stress of the workload was breaking me, but she just kept on going and going, like some kind of AMV editing machine; it took all of my will power just to keep up with her. I’ve been crying myself to sleep for weeks.

Just bear that in mind if any of you are thinking of ever collaborating with ZombieMesh in the future.


it was Adam and Joe who did the song so has to be great by default

Finally, you and I can agree on something 100%.


#5 got political at the end.
What? Do you think that casual murder, stabbings and threatening children with guns is morally questionable or something?

Bonus critique: Wrong Hole

The video is longer than it needs to be and the joke becomes a bit tiresome halfway through, might have been worth playing with the audio a bit and trimming out a verse for brevity. The dialogue at the start should have been cut completely.
Still, your choice of scenes and shots were smart, and the video told a cohesive story.

This gets a certified “not bad” rating from me. Looking forward to your next contribution.


It makes sense that the community here isn’t adept at creating full-length AMVs for a single song or source. This is AMV hell after all; short and sweet is our niche. Still, one would have hoped for a little more participation…

Here’s hoping that the contest in August won’t be another one-horse race.

That's impossible Silent one. At like 26 seconds of the jem theme, the first "jem is my name" is clearly interrupted by the bitch-fits, but in this one it clearly goes through meaning the "jem is my name" at the very end of the song was used to sample as that was the only way to get that window. Everything else I am fine with.

Feel bad about yourself if you must, but don't tell Guthix he speaks the truth. He's a ****. A big, thick, meaty, hairy, gaping, ooze-dripping ****. We don't need him getting uppity thinking he's right or that people are listening to him.

ive probably said this a thousand times, but claiming that you dont care about something [without being asked] is controversial, since you care enough to type ****y excuses.
claiming that my mindset wont change makes your post even more pointless , if you know that nothing wont change, why bother?

Alright, it's time to announce our winners!

The Viewer's Choice Award goes to "Understanding Right from Wrong".

Zarx's Choice Award goes to "Uncle ****er".

Congratulations to the winners! I will contact you shortly regarding your prizes.

And now, here are my thought's on each of the videos:

1) Jem
This is a fairly solid video, though it is lacking altogether in humor, except maybe the "Jem 3:16" part. There also doesn't really seem to be any connection between the audio and video sources, other than the fact that the creator likes them. A solid but average video all around.

2) Jizz in my pants
This was one of my favorite entries the first time I watched it, though on subsequent viewings the faults became more and more apparent. I thought the video was well put together for the most part, and big props to the creator for actually making a video of a decent length, rather than just barely going over a minute like most of the other videos. I really liked how the nosebleeds are used to demonstrate the jizz. The big downside for me is, like so many other people have already stated, the poorly added swag items. If only they were actually frame accurate, and tracks the motion of the characters, I think the video would have been a lot better. As it is, they are very distracting, and look amateurish. Same goes for the subtitles that come up in multiple situations. The editing is a mixed bag. While I like a lot of the scene choices, and they tend to fit the lyrics well for the most part, the synchronization felt off in many areas, such as when the lyrics say "jizz" but you wait like a second later before switcing to a clip showing a nosebleed. Also towards the end there were some clips of people just standing around and moving their mouths a bit, and I wasn't sure if that was supposed to be some half-assed lip-sych or not. Overall, I feel that this video had a great idea with a lot of potential, but it just felt unfinished.

3) Uncle ****er
This is another video that I really like. It feels really well-done for the most part. I even thought the fart sounds are synched to the music quite well, though looks a bit awkward in places. My biggest complaint would be that the lip sync in a couple of areas is a bit substandard, such as at 0:08 & 0:52, but its fine in most parts. While someone pointed out that this audio/video combination had been made before, this video feels very different from the other one, as they use almost completely different scenes for the most part.

4) Redline Drift
I actually found this one to be really funny, though I get the impression that not a lot of other people felt the same way. The outlandish drifting depicted in the anime just creates a really over-the-top caricature of Tokyo Drift. I also laughed at the part where the one guy says "come on" and then a fist is smashed into his face. Something about the way that part looks is just funny to me. The editing here is pretty spot on, and I don't really have any major complaints about this video.

5) Understanding right from wrong
I liked this video a lot. The scene choices are great and really fit the lyrics well. The recurring segments with the two teacher's from Azumanga are nice, though obviously a bit inspired from an existing YouTube video of this song. It would have been nice to see some more interesting stuff going on in those segments, besides them just trying to stand in front of one another. No big complaints about this video, other than ****ty deinterlacing at 0:06.

*) Wrong Hole
First off, it looks like the aspect ratio is squished. Shouldn't this be 16:9? The concept of this video is really cool. I've never watched the anime, but I'm pretty sure nothing about sex ever comes up in it. So managing to make a 4+ minute long video about anal sex using this footage took quite a bit of ingenuity I'm sure. However, this really isn't a 4+ minute joke. The video really felt like it was just dragging on and on, and it honestly got really boring for me. I think this could have possibly worked a lot better if it were around 2-3 minutes, max.

N.P.C.C.

If I had seen Tokyo Drift myself, I might've actually caught that and laughed.

I guess it was a good thing that I changed my idea. I honestly thought a lot of these were pretty rad and outshined mine, even the Tokyo Drift one. The editing in each, with exception to a few parts, mine especially included, is great and it looks like everyone did put a good bit of effort into these. Now aside from all this I can't wait to see what's submitted to the next contest in August!

Doesn't take that much knowledge... Have you seen any of the The Fast and The Furious movies? Do you know anything about them or how most people describe the movies? Do you know what drifting is? The videos aren't that similar, outside of the text and syncing, the sources are what are similar.

No, no I haven't seen any of The Fast and The Furious. And no, I don't know how most people describe the movies. Racing/car movies just don't interest me, and I certainly don't actively discuss them with others.

I do know some of the basics about drifting, at least...but that isn't enough to make me laugh at your video.

Yes, you are correct, but you are the one that keeps coming back to my clip. Notice how you are the one that pointed out only my clip in Zarx's review? At least Chaz had the decency to admit he sucks ****s when he gave his review. Also, I didn't want to just repeat my argument about how Trailer AMV's are a thing to him when I already called out Pzykosiz for the same thing earlier in the thread. Also, you questioned my intelligence because your ignorance to the source material made you not find any of the humor in the video. If you had said, "I did not find this clip funny," I would have been ok with your review, like Law did. Instead you said,

4. I really liked this one. Would've won except.....this is a comedy contest. We weren't going for "awesome, but not funny" videos here. If we were, I have numerous ideas I could've fit in myself.
I'm disappointed this is Sentai's entry, honestly. I was expecting him to be smarter than this.

Unfortunately I didn't realize what the aspect ratio of the AMV was until I went to go render and changing it at that point just wasn't an option. And since length is the main issue everyone had with my AMV then I'll explain why I used the full song. I didn't make this AMV specifically for this contest. I actually started on it last year but I just never got around to finishing it. Honestly the AMV didn't seem too long to me but to each his own. I've come to learn that the AMV Hell community likes their AMVs to be short and sweet or at least it seems that way. I appreciate the feedback and I'll take it into account if I enter anymore contests here.

Overall, I feel that this video had a great idea with a lot of potential, but it just felt unfinished.


Cheers for the feedback. I'll admit I did have to rush it a bit at the end, so some bits are a bit sloppy. If there was more time, I would have patched it up a bit better, but I wasn't disappointed with what I did get done in the time frame. I may try and redo it it another time

There was no attempt to lip-sync this, I would never have finished it. I also found out later, that the subtitle bit that chaz pointed out had english text on the phone in the japanese version (WTF?).




Also, I didn't want to just repeat my argument about how Trailer AMV's are a thing to him when I already called out Pzykosiz for the same thing earlier in the thread.

Because your clip's review was the only one I had comments on? Because I understood the joke in the other clips?

It's not because I'm obsessed with your clip, it's because I had nothing to say about any of his other points on other clips. Or on your clip, for that matter. Notice how I only commented on that ONE point? (and there was more than one point I could've commented on if I felt the need) Notice how I didn't try to explain how he was wrong with his review? (only on why I didn't get the joke he was in on).

*edit*

Also, you questioned my intelligence because your ignorance to the source material made you not find any of the humor in the video.

Lol..just....lol. So you're overly upset because someone on the internet called you stupid? Congratulations, retard, you're proving my ****ing point. Only stupid people get overly upset over being called stupid on the internet.

Holy christ, I guess I will try to spell this out for you, Guthix. It is fairly obvious you don't understand the situation or the arguments. I am not trying to say that most people didn't find my clip funny, that is a fact that I can't argue. I am calling out bad arguments about why my clip is bad. In your argument, you brought up that the majority didn't find my clip funny, so it has no comedic value. I point out that this is a logical fallacy. The majority of people like top 40 pop, does this make that music good? Big Bang Theory is one of the most popular sitcoms of all time, does that make it funny? A large majority of people believe there is a God, does that make it true? Do you understand now? It is hard not to look down on you, Guthix, when you don't even understand what I am saying. Again, like I said before, it is like playing chess with a pigeon.

Same goes for Dark, but I was pretty sure he understand the argument. I am not arguing that he doesn't find my clip funny, I am arguing that his argument is terrible. I had hoped that he was going to strengthen his argument with more things than just "I didn't get the inside joke, so you aren't funny. This must mean you didn't understand the contest, baka." I think he might have thought when I said he insulted my intelligence I was talking about the fact he called me an idiot, when I was just saying his argument in general insulted my intelligence.

As for Pzykosiz, he made the argument that my video wasn't an AMV because it focused on being a trailer parody. I pointed out that there are a large amount of trailer AMV's that are accepted by AMV communities. I gave the example of AMV News (http://amvnews.ru/index.php?go=Files&in=cat&id=2).

Most people stuck with the "I didn't find it amusing or funny" argument. I can't argue against that because it is just an opinion without explanation. I could try to pull out their reasoning, but that is rarely worth it.

If you can offer a stronger argument I can't defend against, I would be happy to concede, but right now I'm just saddened by the state of the debates on AMV Hell.

I gave you an explanation as to why I didn't find the joke funny, Sentai. If that explanation wasn't enough for you, tough ****. I'm not gonna make bull**** up just to entertain you with debate. The reason I gave you is literally the only reason as to why I didn't like your clip. You're asking for more, but I just don't have anything more to give. Not without excessive reaching, which I've already told you I'm not that type of person.

See if you can bring teraforce back and try arguing with him/her. They claimed last time that they've learned from their mistake, and I'm interested in seeing if that's actually true.

Holy **** this thread is getting out of hand quick.

Also, is it just me or did they misspell the candy bar's name? Or has it always been spelled that way and I've just not been paying attention?

I'm curious how they screwed it up in the first place. Did they not have an actual picture of a Snickers bar and so combined other pictures to make it themselves?

I'm not sure? I think the joke might be that Snickers accidentally mislabeled it in a commercial and then someone edited a screenshot as seen with the misspelled words behind the candy.

>it has no comedic value. I point out that this is a logical fallacy.
well ill admit i did miss the point, i wasnt expecting that someone was such a sore looser as to pick out the bad "arguements" just because he didnt like them. i guess i give people too much credit.
since youre such a try hard, how about you explain your clips humor aspects [the single punch zarx mentioned doesnt justify the whole trailer as its neither the punch line, and doesnt need that much filler].
fail to do so and your clip has no humor, it has no place in this competition and it has no right to bend the rules when the rules kicked out a better candidate, just cause he was late. if we are wringing filth out, might aswell do them all, so it wont be RIGGED.

why are you playin chess with a pigeon? thats like begging to be shat on.

I can't even... You are the dumbest creature on the internet. First off, not only did you disregard everything I said, you misquoted me like some kind of **** journalist to create a point where there is none. Secondly, I was calling out people's arguments long before I lost, so that argument is fatuous. Thirdly, you try to shift the burden of proof on to me, which is another logical fallacy. Then you for some reason try to make that an ultimatum for me to either play by your **** rules or accept defeat. Even with those rules set in place, Zarx mentioned more than just the punch and I have even explained the humor in the clip before. Fourthly, you bring back up a quote I said that you even knew was a joke statement. Lastly, you accept that you are a pigeon, which is far less intelligent than a human and try to make it seem like a positive? Yep:

I'm still not convinced it's even possible to have a debate with ANYONE without at least one of these "logical fallacies" happening on BOTH ends. (not even with the people who seem obsessed with pointing out said fallacies.)

Unless by "debate" you mean "I think this" "Hey! I think this too!" "YAY FRIENDSHIP~"

Maybe it's just because I'm a part of the argument, but I don't think it's that hard to follow at all.

Sentai got upset because people didn't like his clip, so he started defending it. Now he's whining because a forum about setting cartoons to music isn't meeting his unrealistically high standards of debate.

That was an observation, not an argument. I don't know if you thought it was a positive or a negative. Also, it was a pretty obvious observation. Both used the same movie source and had syncing. I used some of the same scenes because you only have so much footage to work with. Though, one was an opening and the other was trailer.
As for the logical fallacies, it is impossible to argue with someone that is unchecked while using them. Also, Lolipop? That is almost as good as Roman's superLOLsentai...

Apparently, even after I spelled it out for you it is still hard for you to follow? No, I wasn't upset because people didn't like my clip. I started this for the **** and giggles of pointing out how dumb your arguments were. Then you guys tried to defend your arguments with even worse arguments. However, now you are correct that I am annoyed. ****, you don't need to follow my standards, just don't try to fight back.

Notice how I only commented on that ONE point? (and there was more than one point I could've commented on if I felt the need) Notice how I didn't try to explain how he was wrong with his review? (only on why I didn't get the joke he was in on).

pfff defend our arguements hahahaha thats rich, ignoring the fact that those arguements were focused ****ting on you rather then enforcing.
statement that i dont regard previous posts , disregarding that i mentioned i didnt read everything and can be fixed with a simple self quote to my said "ultimatum", disregarding that i stated, that this pathetic attempt at saving face you call a joke was not worthy of discusion. you do realize that simply claiming that im a pigeon deepens your retarded outlook and youre throwing in unrelated bull**** derailing the "discusion" that you crave for. youre like a child who shat his pants and then whines for everyone to take him seriously.

in the end you gave no effort to actualy defend your clips validility to be here [ it was a simple request], i dont realy see the reason to change my statement. your efforts are futile and youre just digging yourself deeper with every response.

I don't see how me proving you wrong at each step and pointing out your bull**** is ****ting on me, but I guess you are a pigeon. Also, this is one of the worst written posts I have seen you do, Guthix, and that is saying a lot. I'm not sure why you put ultimatum in quotes when that is what you did, which I am guessing means you don't know its definition. Also, the fact that you didn't read all the previous posts that pertained to the argument shows how little validity your side has, seeing as you still don't get the argument after I have repeatably explained it to you. I mean it is spelled out for you in the quote you used. I guess pigeons don't have the best memory or reading comprehension. If it wasn't worthy of discussion, why would you bring it up. It is funny that you said I derailed the discussion when you just threw yourself into the middle of it. Also, all the stuff that you think derails the conversation is just me responding to you. I gave plenty of effort to show that my clip can be seen as valid, but again this wasn't the argument. Also, you have the burden of proof here. It is hard to keep any debate going when you haven't brought up any new points.

Again, I don't see how me proving your statements as incorrect and you not understanding the argument digs me a hole. You are right about one thing, all my efforts are futile. No matter how hard I try, I can't get you to be any more intelligent.

I’d be lying if I said there was nothing I could have done to fix this fault, I could/should have cleaned up the individual frames in photoshop as I was extending the 4:3 picture to 16:9. ZombieMesh must have been feeling lenient/pity for me and allowed the imperfection to pass. I apologise for my laziness.

Akyho, please stop this “Elite” nonsense. It was cute for a while, but the joke is officially tired.

give me more. Explain.

What was wrong with it is that the joke just seemed to be redline has cars, racing and is japanese like fast and the furious tokyo drift isn’t that a funny observation. Like that was the whole joke from what i can tell supposedly. If not what was the joke then? This would belong better if there was a contest for making a fast and the furious trailer using anime. Even if that was the joke you wanted it came off more action-y than funny since there was no real joke other that redline could work or be like FF.

You can make a comedic video with what you were trying to do/ that kind of system, but it just fell from comedy to more action-y. It just didn't hit the marks of making it comedic so it just came off more of a trailer.

Well excuuuuuuse me for not being able to see in your clip what you, the person who made the damn thing, saw.

Seriously, Sentai, it's pretty retarded to expect literally every viewer in existence to automatically get what joke you were going for. Especially when some of us don't actually give a damn enough about drifting to know more than just "it's a racing-type thing that exists and some people like it". I don't care how much you love drifting, I'm not gonna take the time to research a hobby I just plain have no interest in myself just so I can understand a joke in a clip that I didn't find all that entertaining. How can we point out your side of the story in our reviews if we don't even know your side of the story? That's just retardation at it's peak. It's your responsibility to point out your views, not ours.

And yet you view yourself as being an intelligent person (while still being overly upset about having said intelligence called into question....lol)

so i did read that before... and i didnt accept it as a joke, still dont, never will.[was it that hard to requote it when i asked you loli? or did you need to make another acount for just that?]

God, Chaz, I give you ONE job, to find video sources and edit them together into an AMV with high production value and originality, and you manage to SCREW IT UP. I am very disappointed in you. Deinterlacing... I thought you were better than that. You'll never make it to the big leagues like this.
