But the non-voiceover parts were great.
So, are trailer remixes the mainstream vids? Well, more mainstream, anyway? It sure seems like it. Or maybe that was just me wondering why they were featuring the chick in the trailer.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Where the Truth Lies
You know, I am a Firth and Egoyan fan, and I still haven't seen this. But I have seen the original Fever Pitch.

The girl who'll be playing Luna was in all the Irish papers when I was home last week. She's a complete fangirl. They had pictures of her queuing at midnight for the last book, wearing beaded golden snitch earrings that she'd made herself. She must be the most excited girl on the planet.

Yeah. It's sort of weird, watching what I consider to be vidding techniques, used for this purpose. A little bit of mental disconnect.

That's really interesting, because it never would have occured to me to think of remixing as a "vidding technique." It's just...editing. (And I wonder how much of my own POV is influenced by knowing that the Shining trailer that jumpstarted the trend came out of a film school class.)

Who knows, maybe these made up one-liners will prompt young people to seek out the real facts as found in my recent autobiographical book, "Against All Odds?" They may even be interested enough to check out my novels set in the Old West, "The Justice Riders," released this month.
Bwahahahaha! Nicely done, Chuck.

He's smooth like a roundhouse kick to the face.

You get vidders who have had formal training in editing techniques, film school, the like, and you get completely feral vidders who figure stuff out for themselves. It's an interesting mix.
