I have a new favorite Marvel video by a long shot. It's about people who make themselves into weapons and people who are forced to become weapons and the song choice is so, so perfect. (cw: canon-typical violence)
that one is really good! and it's a seriously incredible critique of the military industrial complex and how marvel and the MCU glorify it
i mean the song is very much explicitly about how the media glorifies the army and makes it seem like a good and heroic and glorious thing, that guns are toys for children, while across the sea other children make those toys for pennies an hour, and then the kids who played with gun toys grow up to die for the glory of the gunmakers. never thought i'd see an AMV that ends with the adorable moppet standins for the kids in the audience being ominous.
I got linked to this Utena AMV the other day and it's beautiful (can't embed, sorry). Audio is from this, for context.
Flash back to 2003. Faith/Buffy, centered on Faith. One of my favorite vids of all time because the music matches the character so well. The vocal fry on the “yeah” while she’s examining the knife in the mayor’s office sounds so much like her. The choice of footage is flawless. Her facial expressions are tragedy x100.
YOOOOOO my favorite star trek vid still exists!! it was deleted on youtube but i just found a remaster that someone uploaded to ao3 :D https://archiveofourown.org/works/8525869
i’ve watched this at least once a day since it was published: her only other vid (so far) is also Extremely Good
This amv was blocked worldwide on Youtube, so the creator put it on Google Drive instead. It is the best edited Bad Blood amv I have ever seen in my whole life. BNHA, Bakugou+Deku or Bakugou/Deku (whichever you prefer) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JYMkgZTTQB_L-XFGRirmXdYwbInN5uAj/view
