This will become, if people use it, the official Rating an AMV thread. Just post whatever your favorite videos are. Please for Gandhi's sake, don't say "I like it." Please give a blurb about why you like it. If you wish, you may use the AMV opinion form as shown: Original (Originality of the video)- I give this an eight; I have seen videos similar but this one has a new twist Capture (How high quality is the footage)- I thought that the Footage was a bit blurry at times so I will give this video a 7 Sound (How is sound quality- NOT how good the song is!)- Man, I couldn't understand a word they were singing,and It wasn't Heavy Metal! They get a 2. Action (How well the Music went with what was on the screen)- They must have thought that "Turning Japanese" was a fight song. It isn't. they get a 3 for comedic effect. Lip (Was it lip-synced? Well? Poorly? Note: This only applies if it seems like they actually tried to Lip sync.)- N/A because it was obvious Lip syncing wasn't the goal of the video. Effects (Transitions, overlays, technical stuff)- I thought that the slide transitions were perfert for the Opera in this one. They get a 9. Effort (Did someone put time and effort into this, or splice it in five minutes?)- It looked a 3-year was told to make a Music Video. I think they couldn't have spent more time on this unless they didn't make it at all. I give this a 3/4 Review (Would you watch this again?)- I have this video on Constant Loop all day(I know my Co-workers want to shoot me), It is so addicting! 50 Billion! Overall (Seriously, Do you need help with this one?)- I wish I could make babies with this video. 29 and a fifth.

AMV Hell - by A2A
Originality - An easy 10/10. This has got to be one of the craziest videos I've ever seen. Capture - 9/10 Nothing to complain about here. The video looks find at full screen. There are a few places that are a little off, but nothing horrid. Sound - 9/10 Again, nothing to complain about. Action - 10/10 All the music clips were picked perfectly. They either matched what was on screen exactly, or provided excellent comedy. Lip Sync - 9/10 Sections 4,6 (see below) had very good lip sync. Effects - 9/10 Most of the effects where in the opening and closing parts of the video, but they were fantastic. Effort - 10/10 Reviewability - 10/10 Whenever I sit down for some AMVs I always re-watch this one. Overall - 9/10 I wish I could make babies with this video. No, I really really do. There are a few sections that I didn't like as much as others, but not many!
Breaking the video down Section 1 - The Fanservice Who doesn't love fanservice? And this is about as bad as it can get while people are still wearing clothing. The harder sound of the music goes well with all the bouncing and jiggling, and the editing made it perfect! Section 2 - Spilt Water I love Kill Bill, and this is amazingly funny. The red light is perfectly timed with the 'siren'. Section 3 - Spank My Booty It didn't hurt the video, but this wasn't one of my favourite sections. Section 4 - Anything You Can Do While I don't like the song, the end of this section was priceless. Section 5 - I Believe I Can Fly The good old Love Hina punch! "I believe I can touch the sky..." Section 6 - Writing a Paper I love the Mac version of this audio clip, so this I already like. It's so true. The lip sync was perfect, but I didn't like the one little jump her face made. Section 7 - I Feel Like a Woman Good old bishounens, you never let us down. Section 8 - The Moon Just like America to blow up the moon. wink Section 9 - Ninja All I have to say is: Ninja! Ninja Rap! Ninja! Ninja Rap! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go Ninja Go Ninja Go! Go Ninja Go Ninja Go! Actually, the editing at the "Go Ninja Go Ninja Go" parts was absolutly beautiful. Also, I love Vanilla Ice. Section 10 - Sugar Even though I feel like shotting myself when I hear this song, there is no song better for this anime. Section 11 - Fire This one just didn't work for me. Section 12 - Candy Girl Cute. Very cute. Section 13 - Like a Surgeon A million points because it's Weird Al! Section 14 - Bomb Another one that I didn't quite get. Section 15 - Move The editted version of the song, but it works. Actaully it works quite well with this scene. Section 16 - Always Coka-Cola We all know the song, even in another language. But this song to guns and violence? You bet! Section 17 - Coming Soon The only serious part of the video, except even it isn't.
My review of AMV Hell 2 will be next.

AMV Hell 2: Son of AMV Hell - by A2A (no link as there is > PG13 level clips.)
Originality - 9/10 Technically this has been done before, but it's the same guys, so it doesn't really count. Capture - 9/10 Nothing to complain about here. The video looks find at full screen. There are a few places that are a little off. Sound - 9/10 Again, nothing to complain about. Action - 10/10 All the music clips were picked perfectly. They either matched what was on screen exactly, or provided excellent comedy. Lip Sync - 9/10 Sections 1,4,5,6,11,14,16,preview (see below) had very good lip sync. Effects - 9/10 The Mountine Dew was done quite well. Very difficult to improve at all. Effort - 10/10 Reviewability - 10/10 I watch this one every time that I watch it's predecessor. Overall - 9/10 Just as good as the first one.
Breaking the video down Opening The blood and her eyes rolling up in her head was great! And excellent job there. One down, 41 to go. Section 1 - Andy Griffith A short big of lip sync that was done well. The reaction of the characters was excellent. Section 2 - Unit 01 - part a I think I see where this is going... Section 3 - Space Ship Crayola has an anime now? Cool! The crayon ship flying through the sky of the other anime was pretty good, one woman turns around to look at it. Excellent timing. Section 4 - Happy Birthday I would be looking at this guy that way too. Bizzare and random. Section 5 - Mr. Ed Should I be imbarrased that I know this clip is from the hentai Wordsworth? Lip sync is about as good as it can get for a horse wink Section 6 - I Don't Think You... Not only is the lip sync good. The keyboard playing matches pretty well too! Bonus points! Section 7 - This is Strange No, really, it is. I don't get it. Section 8 - Unit 01 - part b Yep, I think I do see the point. Section 9 - You Don't Always... I feel bad for laughing at this. I mean it is a rape scene (editted and made fuzzy). Section 10 - Stabby Stabby Not really funny, but the editting and stabbing is timed well. Section 11 - How Many Licks The style of the animation is perfect. Some of it from the anime, some is obviously fan art. How many points should I give it? One... Two... Three... Three. Section 12 - Gendowned This is one of my favourite sections! It speaks for itself. Section 13 - Unit 01 - part c I love where this is going! Section 14 - Rejected This is very wrong, but the audio is from Rejected, so it's ok! Lip Sync seems a little off maybe. Section 15 - Mountine Dew The effects here are great! I love Shinji choking the can! Section 16 - I Have a Dream Mr. Poepoe! Poor Bulma. Section 17 - Drop the Bomb Not funny. Kinda disturbing. Section 18 - Unit 01 - part d Pure. Genious. In fact, the lyrics of this song discribe how I felt at this part in the anime. Even more so when I watched End of Eva. Section 19 - MmmBob The editting could have been better in places, it was a little off. But the idea here is beautiful. Preview Lip Sync is perfect!
I can't wait for AMV Hell 3!
