Scene database?

I know I'm coming out of the blue with this, but the idea is rather simple. There's a LOT of anime out there that can be used to make good amv's. But getting those animes and extracting useful scenes would take obscene amounts of time and money that no one has. No ONE person has that is. So, the gis...

Re: A world without AMVs :O

Without AMV I wouldn't own half the animes and music CD's I own today. It would be bad for the industry. :nono:

World without AMV's = :down:

Re: Random AMV rant

You truly do love anime don't you? AMVs misrepresented in the world? The world doesn't even know about them! ERm...how to answer that. Not really..maybe. There's a lot of crap anime just like there are crap movies, but there are also jewels. And anime is more mature in many ways than western flicks...

Re: Random AMV rant

Well... That wouldn't bug me that much. I dislike more those amvs that mix different drawing styles. Imagine you mix Deathnote, Excel Saga, Mindgame, Vampire Hunter D and 5cm per second. That just doesn't look right when the art styles change every second :| Something like that doesn't really bug m...

Re: Random AMV rant

Well, to try and explain myself better here. I can be a pretty anal person and I'm very hard on everything. Call me an eternal critic. But I'm also very objective and always try to base my reasoning on things that can be weighed in a reasonable fashion. When I said "bad scene selection" I may have u...

Re: Random AMV rant

I'm not sure I really understand your point terribly well. You're saying amvs can't be anything more than a tribute to a song or anime? I'd have to disagree quite severly there. No, not can't be .. but that's usually what they are. AMV's should have a purpose and focus - as everything that is good ...

Random AMV rant

You know when you run into a AMV that's almost perfect...but then you realise the maker(s) made a really stupid* decision somewhere along the way. *(no offense to anyone involved with those AMVs. They are, as I said, great) IMHO, when you make AMV's you do it to glorify the anime or to glorify the s...

Hats off to the AMV masters

In the last two days I downloaded a lot of AMV's and started watching. I had some before, but the ones I got this time.. WHOA. Knocked me off my feet. Given that I'm a big Escaflowne fan, I naturally have most of "his" AMV's. but also a lot of others like Macross, Cowboy Beepbop, Lodoss and mixed on...

Well...it depends - are you looking for a song/music that can capture the whole essence of the show or just a part of it? In the case of Vision of Escaflowne, since it has about anything in it (action, romance, drama, etc..) it's hard to find any song that has it all that isn't 15 min long :D The be...
