Fanvid recs

[thisbluespirit]

A spot of silliness. I've been fairly productive today (been to work for an hour, constructed a table and chairs, done the hoovering, polished the table etc.) and been relatively serious at work all week. Apart from the bit in the middle where we all got slightly hysterical every time someone left the office ("You are coming back, aren't you!"/ "I don't know."/ "Don't leave me!") but that was just actual hysteria.

So, here goes, fanvids that make me laugh anyway. I expect people have seen them all before, but hey...

This first one is rude (sorry!) but the editing is scarily spot on and ST Voyager meets Avenue Q in The Internet is For Pr0n by JanewayJunkie.

Jaws in 60 Seconds by FringeToast Hahaha.

Star Trek Meets Monty Python by Jonesy and Killa. Again, :lol:. And, actually, this might be the best edited thing... Oh, well, makes me laugh.

Ones you might need to know the show for:
Acceptable in the 80s B7 S3 - a tribute or a send up? It's the best B7 vid I've seen (even if it does feature the Sexist Manly Man...)

Press Gang Ban the Tube Top by hezzabeth. A tribute to Lynda Day's lack of dress sense. Yay.

And three's a whole series of interviews with 1980s cartoon villains, like this Mumm-Ra by MisterSharp. The newsflashes are the really amusing bit, though. (THe Venger one is kind of in bad taste...)

And, my fave Dunegons & Dragons vid, because it cheers me up and makes me go aw, I expect I'm alone, but cutest cartoon vid (and this is only 1.45 and balances out the rude one at the start) okay? Hearts and Flowers by Random Scribbles.

Edit: And this - it's cheerful if not downright ridiculous B7 S4! Love it! (For a wonder NO spoilers for the end, either.)

OMG, that Star Trek meets Monty Python one was hilarious! You're right, that's one of the best-edited fanvids I think I have ever seen! Thanks for the rec, because I doubt I would have found it on my own.

That was is very, very funny. I don't think I ever saw TOS, but it makes me giggle a lot... Glad you liked! :-D

Ok, the Start Trek Meets Monty Python, Voyager, and Jaws in 60 Seconds ones are all very funny!

[thisbluespirit]

Heh, good! They never fail to cheer me up at least a little bit. I especially love the Jaws one - it's so simple and now I never have to watch the film. :-D

I always think I'm the last to spot things, so imagine everyone else has already seen them 60 times and is going yeah, yeah, yeah. Glad I could make you smile!!

You have never seen Jaws??? Don't let the fact that it is the original summer blockbuster put you off. It isn't just a big shark and gore; it has some genuinely great character moments. Spielberg is one of the greatest for a reason!

Heh, it was such a big cultural thing growing up that I kind of always felt that I ought to, but I never wanted to in the least. Watching this finally freed me of the obligation, cos it gave me the general idea! But I shall bear it in mind.

Although I am very wimpish about what films I watch, so it may not be a good idea.

And it's nothing against Spielberg - my favourite film is Schindler's List. :-) (And I did watch that other cultural icon-y thing that was ET. And cried, of course.)

By the way, I followed a link someone sent to YT for something else, and found that someone had done a vid of The Internet is for Pron for Doctor Who! Unfortunately I didn't snag the link. I think the Voyager one is still better though.

The Voyager version would be very hard to beat, I have to say - there's the neatness of the editing where it really looks as if they're saying the words at some point, the perfect casting and the whole 'Kate' and 'Trekkie' thing. (Well, it sounds like Trekkie to me.) *giggles again thinking about it*

I wanted to rec The Timelords Who Don't Do Anything again, as well, but it had gone. A clip of Donna and Ten kissing to "And I never kissed a chipmunk..." *is sad it has gone*

(Well, it sounds like Trekkie to me.)

You mean the name of the character who sings the internet song? It is Trekkie.

Thank you, because that was what I thought, but somebody else was sure it couldn't be.
