So so so happy with all the VVC vids I've seen so far, but I'll save those recs for another post once I've seen more :D

Day 1 - A vid that made you start watching a brand new show
Day 2 - A male character study vid you love
Day 3 - A female character study vid you love
Day 4 - An ensemble vid you love
Day 5 - A vid everyone should see at least once
Day 6 - A vid you've watched at least ten times.
Day 7 - A constructed reality/crossover vid you love - both SPN vids for this one
Day 8 - A vid you had to watch multiple times to understand
Day 9 - A vid that makes you cry
Day 10 - A vid that makes you laugh
Day 11 - An anime/animated vid you love
Day 12 - A relationship vid you love.
Day 13 - Your "pick me up" vid of choice

( Day 14 - A mood vid you love, Day 15 - A vid (by someone else) that has defined a con or period of time for you, Day 16 - A vid that told you something new about a show/movie you already loved, and Day 17 - A vid you wish you had made )

Day 18 - A vid that made you investigate that vidder's other work further
Day 19 - A movie vid you love
Day 20 - A narrative vid you love
[Day 21 - Make up your own question!]
[Day 22 - Make up your own question!]

I'm ALL for more sci-fi/fantasy/supernatural TV shows, believe me.

( But Vampire Diaries, really? )

All in all, I'm with

sundancekid. I know everyone is riding the vampire-mania of Twilight in the entertainment industry, but how about some hot werewolves or hot zombies or something else.

Or really, I would just be happy with more supernatural romance stories/books/shows/movies where the sexy, dangerous supernatural character is the female protagonist and SHE has to figure out how to navigate her strength and sexuality around a mortal man (like Blood and Chocolate!!!).

I'm pretty good on scared/weak mortal girls and sexy/dangerous supernatural boys for right now ;)

Current Mood: blah
Current Location: home
Current Music: Kasabian (woohoo for grinding away at my Sweet Charity vid!!!)

I love those periodic times/challenges that each fandom gets really excited about. I remember anticipating each new round of

vm_library and

vm_santa. Now I get all worked up waiting for the VividCon vids to release each year, or for another round of

spn_j2_bigbang.

I don't have many flisters who are very active in SPN/J2 fandom, so I mainly just read a lot of J2 and lurk in a few journals, but I am REALLY enjoying the squee and excitement right now over

j2_everafter. J2 AUs are my favorite kind of fic to read right now and the prospect of dozens of new AUs (crackalicious DISNEY-themed ones, no less!) is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO AWESOMESAUCE.

Can't wait to read them all!

( It was acceptable in the eighties, it was acceptable at the time )

Feedback is happy-making!

Current Mood: happy

OMG YOU GUYS, I made something that doesn't involve people in space or angsty demon/vampire hunters!!!

( Vidders notes )

Current Mood: relieved
Current Location: back patio with dogs
Current Music: calvin harris has eaten my brain and I need a break from this song

( Top 11 shallow thoughts while watching this ep )

( slightly less shallow thoughts on Kara/Leoben, Leoben/Anders, and Kara in general )

( what this show really needs right now is more spaceships and robots )

ETA: Number of times I used the word awesome in this relatively brief post = 7.

I've got a favor to ask of my brilliant and bounteous flist!

My brain got hijacked by an awesome vid bunny a few days ago and I need your help: I would absolutely love it if everyone would comment with their favorite cheesy eighties movie(s), particularly ones that feature absolutely hilariously bad 80's outfits.

I'm talking both the classics (like John Hughes and John Cusack and Ferris Bueller's and Back to the Futures, etc.) and the guilty pleasures (like Teen Witch and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun and Bill and Ted's). The worse the outfits and hairstyles are, the better for me.

So tell me your faves! Don't be afraid to mention specific characters or scenes. I need your help to make the awesomest nostalgia vid ever :)
