"Rogers & Astaire
For a -- as I said to the vidder -- lovely, sunny romp of a vid, run over to [info]icepixie's LJ to watch Happiness, featuring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

Trust me, it totally lives up to its title. : )"

I logged onto Facebook last night for the first time in months for the sole purpose of posting a link to this vid. It's an utterly gleeful compilation of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers dancing up a storm. ::loves::

I've stumbled across a couple completely adorable Fred & Ginger fanvids recently! Love You Madly by roseytrebles. "Happiness" [Astaire/Rogers Films] by icepixie. They Can't Take That Away... by duckmilk productions. Do You Love Me (Now That I Can Dance) by StrictlyTaboo. Support For My Argument by vespersaw. Also Caught by vespersaw, featuring not only Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, but also William Powell and Myrna Loy, and Olivia de Havilland and Errol Flynn... *swoon* (I must interject here that never in a million years did I ever expect to find fanvids including footage of Captain Blood and Robin Hood aside from the fantastic ode to Yuletide one.)

Do you need fanworks which remind you that the world is indeed an awesome place? Vid: James Bondage by thingswithwings. Mythbusters, Jamie/Adam. This is a great amusing and light-hearted vid! The song and the clips match amazingly well--I am in awe of thingswithwings for this vid, seriously. This makes me smile fit to split my face!

"
There Are Legends by [info]ras_elased. Merlin/Arthur-Reinkarnationsstory einmal anders herum und das auch noch als Vid! Eine unglaublich toll erzählte Geschichte, die man schauen sollte, wie man sonst Fanfiction liest. Das ist eine geniale konstruierte Realität (der Roadtrip macht's möglich!), die sich wie ein zweiter Canon anfühlt, und bei der einfach alles zusammen passt, inklusive Angst und Happy End. ♥
Instead of Arthur being taken to Avalon and Merlin being immortal and waiting for Arthur to be reincarnated, Merlin trades in his immortality to save Arthur's life, so now Arthur is immortal and waits for Merlin to return from Avalon. Centuries go by, and he mostly lives in the past, unable to let go, until one day he passes Merlin on the street..."

Dammit, I don't even slash Arthur/Merlin (yet), but this is just beautiful. Beware. This is slash. I mean... in some parts it is graphic and explicit.
And even if you're not a fan of the show, please watch, because damn, this makes me want to delete my vidding software and never even attempt to do a vid again. This vid tells a story. You don't even have to know the series and you'll get it. You'll see.

Go. Watch. Have tissues ready."

I love thingswithwings's new Mythbusters vid James Bondage so much, you guys. It's charming and lovely and hilarious and full of kink! The vid is also a beautiful illustration of the show I'm watching, the show where they're always doing roleplay or painplay or obedience that's only tangentially related to the myth but they do anyway because it's fun. And then here's [info - personal] thingswithwings, picking all that up and putting it together into a lovely little package of how Jamie and Adam interact and how Mythbusters is awesome and kinky and adorable as a result! <3

"Battlestar Inferno" by crickets (formerly known as SuperKC). Sexyfuntiems for Saturday night! This is a gorgeously colored vid about gorgeous people being gorgeous. And hot. With each other, and sometimes with automatic weaponry and cigars. Such a fun vid, it's impossible not to smile while watching! And did I mention the coloring? *drools*

"Ong Bak is a Thai martial arts film. The fighting in it is a lot more rough and violent than most martial arts films. The goody is very good (I think his original motive is to retrieve a sacred statue of the Buddha for his humble village) but his fighting is completely unscrupulous - bashing people on the head with bits of metal and so on. I personally think it's great.

Nicky - [info]obsessive24 - has created a very fast and violent video using Ong Bak fight scenes to Breathe by the Prodigy. The video is very exciting, balletic and aggressive. Bang bang smash. You can view or download it here.

VId mashups! Mashups are always fun ... one of my favorites of my own vids is a Proud mashup that jarrow and sisabet made with Rhianna's "Umbrella". You guys, it makes me tear up! I cannot promise the same for everyone else, but still. Kara is Rhianna! Rainman Adama! Little Miss Sunshine Laura! Kara will always be Lee's friend, and they will all shine together! (Except when they don't. ::cries::) And my dream made me want to share another jarrow mashup of "Cuz I Can" with Teairra Mari's "No Daddy". Because it's *almost* like finding a big part of a vid you cut out and forgot about. ;D And there are matches in that one that are *uncanny*. In fact I'm pretty sure jarrow likes it better than the original vid, but he's mean like that. ^_^ I haven't mashed anything up to "I'm Not Dead", but in lieu of that, I offer a mashup to "God Is A DJ" that I came up with all by myself, and is therefore *super* predictable, but whatever, Kara *is* a brick house, dammit. (So are many other kick-ass chick vids, turns out, lol.) But before I stick in vids, I need to single out jarrow one more time for a vid that *is* brand new and also *awesome*. If you're a vid-watcher and have somehow not seen this recced, please run over to his journal and check out "Like My Very Own Blood". It's a portrait of Daddy Adama and Kara, and, wow, it makes me miss my frakked up show. The cutting is relentless, and the pacing, literally, took my breath away. Just at the point where I wasn't sure I could take anymore, it shattered to a standstill and left my heart bruised and aching and...dying to do it all over again. ;} I never hated Adama, even at the end, but this vid has something for everyone, IMO. You can read it as an indictment or as a layered tragedy. It's all good. (VERY GOOD. \o/) And now, mash-ups if you feel so inclined! :D Proudbella. Cuz No Daddy Can. God Is a Brick House.

By way of swanswan, footage from myriad BBC costume dramas set to 'It's Raining Men.' (Clearly, I am not watching enough BBC costume dramas.)

I'd only recently finished watching Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles. One blew me completely out of the water. Army of Me by halcyon_shift, Sarah, Cameron and John relationship. Inspired song choice and brilliant execution. I love the clearly delineated narrative development, and the statement that manages to be nuanced and smacks you over the head simultaneously. I'm in love with the pacing and cutting and lighting effects in the last quarter, the sheer force and violence of it. Insanely good. When I grow up I wanna vid like Lithy.
