Pimp! :)

It seems like a great deal of my flist is not feeling very happy at the moment, so since I can't actually show up on the doorstep with ice cream and a bottle of wine, I thought I'd rec a few things that have cheered me up lately:

Vids:
sdwolfpup has just made one of the most wonderful vids ever. The song is 'La Resistance' from 'South Park, The Movie', so make sure no one young, impressionable or easily offended is close by when you watch. Quite simply a gem of hilarity!

I always thought that Aqua's 'Barbie Girl' would be the perfect vidding song for BuffyBot. Thankfully, so did Cybermintz who has made the silliest and sweetest BuffyBot vid you could imagine. Along with numerous others of course, both serious and funny. The funniest (and most 'sacreligious') would be The Song Of The Count... it will forever warp how you view Sesame Street! Very naughty, but SO much fun! :)

A review:
This is from sadgeezer.com which I found ages ago. There are 'reviews' of the first 4 episodes of S7, but the Beneath You is by far the best. It's like having a slightly mental friend retell the whole episode, with little asides, and it's very good and very funny. Also it made me love the Sluggoth Demon, which is no mean feat!

I hope some of this will cheer people up a bit... enjoy! :)

Enjoyed the South Park and the Barbie Girl one, though I thought the latter could have used less of the clip art inserts. The cuts and clips were already quite well done. (Buffybot is so cute!) Like you, I was also surprised there weren't other videos out there on that theme. I know there was a Buffybot one to "Electric Barbarella" and apparently there has been one to "Barbie Girl" but it doesn't seem to be online now.

I rather liked Cybermintz's "Spike Who Loved Me" too, the "These Dreams" one was quite pretty and the opening to "La Donna e Mobile" was PERfect.

Thanks for pointing these out.

I know what you mean - I kept wanting to push them out of the way so I could see what was going on!

I've not got round to watching all of Cybermitz's vids yet, but she's seems very talented.

If I had to rec just one vid however, it'd definitely be sdwolfpup's 'Coin Operated Boy' which is a perfect matching of subject and song and with spot-on editing! It deals with the question of what Buffy wants in a boy...

All of her vids can be found here. If you're not familiar with her work you should most definitely have a look! You won't regret it!

(And I love your icon!)

I remember seeing you rec that vid sometime back and I took a look. I agree, very well done, and it makes a great statement too. At some point it may show up on my video recs as well :>

Just downloaded that one last night. Found it too, too amusing to resist! miss_jaffacakes had bunches of good ones but I've already got a folder full of icons I have to keep rotating.

There are far too many vids out there... I'm very slowly watching a selection, but I have too little time. Your recs are always welcomed! :)

I've got hundreds of icons sat in folders waiting for some day when I decide to use them... the problem is that I love all those I have uploaded at the moment and don't want to delete any. *sigh* How come 50 isn't enough? [/rhetorical question]
