Hi everyone and sorry for making a new thread so soon after joining, but I've been a long time fan of the AMv Hell series, the few decent spin-offs some have managed to make (the rest are rubbish, but I've probably seen them too) and even the 'rejected collection'.
I notice with each new Mini people complain about repeated audio/clips and in a way, they're right to do so. However I'm of the opinion if it's better than the other ones already made it should be allowed.
For example there was a brilliant one using Gurren Lagann for Aha's "Take On Me" because the style in the scene matched the music video of the song and the words matched what was happening. This was followed by a weird Naruto version in Minis Season 2 Episode 1 where someone took the trouble to trace a scene from Naruto which didn't seem very good in spite of the effort involved.
On the other hand "Where's Your Head At" as been used a few times, but frankly each one as they've come out is better than the previous version, so no problems with that one
Point of this thread? I feel the Gurren Lagann Clip using Take On Me is the best you're going to get for that specific dub parody and shouldn't be done again unless someone makes one insanely better
In AMV Hell 3 you had Vegeta screaming "and IIIII Will Always loove you". The audio fit so well and joke came across so funny I doubt anyone could top it (and yes I've seen attempts on other parody vids like Arrancar Party)
Which clips do you feel are as good as they'll get?

That last clip with Vegeta in it was in AMv Hell 3 not the first one.
One video I see as perfection is the Puttin On The Ritz one from AMV Hell 5.

I find the "Epic Roll"/Trigun (Personally my favorite clip using "Heart Love Score", another completely overused audio these days...), "The Great Mighty Poo"/Spirited Away clips from AMV Hell 4 and, one of my favorites, the "Y'all want a single"/Full Moon wo Saga****e clip from AMV Hell 0 as (very) near perfection, and I doubt that anyone could get as good using the same audio or video footage.
Actually, I think it would rather make one appreciate more the original clips than the remakes...

The Midori Days clip using "God Hand" was better than the Love Hina one. That song should not be used again.
"The Touch" has been used too many times. It was great with Evangelion in AMV Hell 3, decent with Bible Black in 0, and just boring with Panty and Stocking in the first episode of minis season 2.
The One Piece clip using "Sweet Transvestite" is one of my favorites of all time. But the Shugo Chara that used the same one was just...a bit...redundant. I think that song has reached its peak.
As for ones that have not been repeated:
Strange Brew-Evangelion (MS2)
Fly Away Now-Evangelion (MS2)
Bitch! I Love You-Clannad (5)
They're coming to take me away, Ha-haaaa!-Wolf's Rain (4)
Invisible Touch-Elfen Lied (0)
Sexy Thing-Cowboy Bebop (3)
Chicks Dig Giant Robots-Gurren Lagann (5)
Kiss-Evangelion/Utena (CE)
I'll add more if I think of them....

I'll agree with you there. I've had enough of the hinted "transvestite" clips.
The clip that gets my vote that hasn't been mentioned yet would be the Evangelion clip with the Titanic music in AMV Hell 3. It's just...beautiful xD

hehe, the Y'all want a single is a pretty grate clip XD
I have several that I love, one really good one is the Robot Chicken/Bleach one in Minis Bad Stuff. "that is the whitest SOB I have ever seen." is too priceless

Yes, I doubt the Evangelion/Titanic clip + audio could be beaten, it's pure awesome and I agree on the Sweet Transvestite, with all the versions out there, the One Piece clip is the best
LOL, in South Africa we just started geting Takeshi's Castle, which America had as a dub-parody show called MxC, Master eXtreme Challenge, which it turns out has been used in 2 AMV Hell clips, both of which are great -but I think there could be others with different audio clips.
"Nadia" with "Lost" audio is definitely as good as you'll get (My sister, being a Lost fan, nearly flipped when she saw the Island, the ancient writing, the monster, the wreck on the beach) plus the "Bad robot" at the end killed us with laughter XD

I think the Naruto/Hand Jive in AMV Hell 3, can not and will never be beaten. That had me rolling.

Slow down there buck-o, this is the Best Clip Already Done. Not Clips

You too.
In that case, I'll condense it to these two:
Already done, should not be re-done:
Bitch! I Love You-Clannad (5)
The Best Version of a Song Used Multiple Times:
Sweet Transvestite-One Piece (5)

No more Always. The Unico one was the best.

No more Always. The Unico one was the best.
Hmmm....I'd say I liked the Azumanga one best. It was strange, because I usually complain about reuse of ideas (and we've seen Kagura go gaga over Sakaki before). But seeing Sakaki rear her horse up was wonderful. Colorful and imaginative and sweet. I love Sakaki, I love Sakaki/Kagura jokes, I love the dream sequence that footage is from, and I loved the combination.
But I liked the Unico one too, along with Sailor Moon. Oddly enough, the Soul Eater one, which a lot of people seem to like, did not work for me at all. Perhaps it was because it lacked the horse/unicorns theme?

Soul Eater one didn't match the Unicorn reference but fit the song and I found it funny just like I found the original scene funny.
Some jokes work through being repeated, like the "what you say, that you only meant well" ones, where someone gets shot. I didn't get the joke and didn't see the SNL skit that it was based on, but I found it funny after awhile because it kept happening :D
Same with AMV Nightmares "How did this happen to me" playing multiple times.
In that way, I wouldn't mind more Robot Unicorn clips using Erasue "Always", but wish people would do the other Heavy-Metal Robot Unicorn one, which had the flaming robot unicorn to the start of Blind Guardians "Battlefield". (I think Ash riding the rapidash would fit the clip/reference)

Kagura? Don't you mean Kaorin?
Anyways, I should throw in some votes as well.
Best Hell clips IMO:
Clannad - Bitch, I love you
Excel Saga - Hard Rock Halleujah
Abenobashi - Karate
Evangelion - Titanic
None of the songs should be redone so that their awesomeness can be preserved.
Minis will come later.
