although the same description could be applied to this really adorable Clark/Lex vid in the Illustrating Relationship vidshow set to a Tracy Chapman song.

This one. Merry's was cute, but "You're the One" (which I think was the title) charmed me. So gay! All the eyefucks! The interesting thing is that the same vidder had another Smallville vid in Premieres that really didn't work for me.

Heh. Go Katie and me on the massive X-post!

I know we discussed whether or not the Tollans would share advanced sex toy technology

Oh yeah. "Sam, you jeopardized our diplomatic relationship for a dildo!" ::snickers:: And we talked about Jack's hair. And I had quite a bit of beer. Beer and chocolate. Mmmmm'beer....

Of course, she was doing that as soon as she saw there even was a JoA vid, so...

This is very true. And when I saw *who* made the JoA vids, I just plotzed. Have I mentioned that "Haunted" is possibly my favorite vid ever?

Right now, I'm earwormed with "Big Red Boat" and you know what? It's fucking great!

And several Stargate vids, including one by Destina that I want to see about 30 times in a row so that I can revel in the sheer number of iconic character moments she picked out, and how they all add up to a team portrait -- I felt there were subtle complex ideas on offer there.

Sounds loverly. What song did she use?

Also, Theo, where's your tag from?

I really hope Destina doesn't mind that I came away from her vid thinking, "OT4. It could work."

Oh yeah. "Sam, you jeopardized our diplomatic relationship for a dildo!"

"It was a very good dildo, sir."

"Sam, you jeopardized our diplomatic relationship for a dildo!"

And then Daniel steals it and takes it home with him, doesn't he? I know we went to the slashy place eventually. (Poor Sam.)

Sounds loverly. What song did she use?

Hoobastank's "Did You," off of the Spiderman 2 soundtrack.

I really hope Destina doesn't mind that I came away from her vid thinking, "OT4. It could work."

Hee. Well, she's an OTP kind of girl, but I imagine she'd be okay with that. It cracked me up how many people went there immediately, actually.

Hey, shrift went there, and she doesn't watch the show.

She did, however, watch an episode of West Wing that I forced on her.

Consuela *really* needs to watch this

I was lucky enough to see an early draft of the first part, but yes, I can't wait to see the whole thing. t makes plan to invite self over to Laura's place very soon

I really hope Destina doesn't mind that I came away from her vid thinking, "OT4. It could work."

OT4 is the new grey, or something. Although right now threesome!fic appears to be where it's at. I was toying with doing a virtual foursome for the apocafic, but I don't think it'll fly (that's aside from my questionable ability to write the thing -- pronoun problems! Keeping four people in character during a sex scene! Eeeks!).

How were Barkley's vids? What did she bring?

I feel so bad for Teal'c. I mean, in order to do the OT3 not only do you end up leaving Teal'c out, it's really kind of necessary to have him offscreen by several miles.

How were Barkley's vids? What did she bring?

She brought, um, four, I think? The Paradise By The Dashboard Light one, which showed in the Meta vidshow (and I seriously want to know what people thought the toothpaste was doing in it); a Mulder/Scully vid to "So Are You To Me" in Nearly New; an S7 Jack vid to Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home" in Premieres; and a challenge vid called "Lucky One" by Gemma... crap. Gemma someone. Anyway, a Meridian-ish Daniel-POV-on-Jack vid.

None of them are big vids, but I like them. (Of course, I'm biased, since I betaed three of them.) The reaction to Lucky One was very interesting, actually. The challenge vids are shown anonymously then discussed in the room, so you get to hear people's first, snap reactions, and it was fascinating to hear who got it and who didn't. Some people had trouble with what they saw as a POV shift; then someone else--Shoshanna, I think?--said "no no!" and laid out the entire vid, bang-bang-bang, exactly the way Barkley intended it. So there was some interesting back-and-forth about how well it worked for different people.

Oh, that sounds SO cool. And if I'm lucky she'll post them in a format I can actually watch, like .avi or something. Quicktime files still don't work for me, I have no idea why.
