This is my first AMV ever. It took a while to create, but in the end I think I did okay and I learned a lot from making it. More details in the video information.
So, watch, review, and if you criticize, please do so constructively so that I can make better videos in the future.

Edit: And yes, I know the video resolution's tiny. The video conversion program I use was being uncooperative and vomited anything higher than 428 x 240.

Errr...okay. First of all, why didn't you just turn the volume from the video clips off? Hearing the characters talk (as quiet as it may be) in the background is just annoying. Also, you reallllly need to learn to actually cut up your clips. Did you even touch the clip you put in from 1:03-1:33ish? It doesn't look like it, and as such the video just drags at that point (and the uncut bike scene right after). After that I turned the video off because I was relatively sure that the rest of the video was going to be a lot like that.
My biggest advice would be to learn to not be afraid to cut your sources up. Any clip that goes on for more than five seconds, unless there's a really good reason for it, is almost always going to feel too long.
Also, please read this to learn how to properly compress your footage and resize it without any problems.
So...yeah, sorry, this gets a 1/5 in my book. It's okay, you're learning, but you do have a ways to go.
