I completely forgot to write my reviews here! I want to thank everyone who submitted amvs by the deadline (seriously that was tough). Also a big thanks to those of you who already wrote out such detailed and long reviews to this very long list of entries. I will be happy to still give my input of the amvs this year, that is if you want to my opinion. Either way congrats on everyone who made it and didn't. There was a lot of time and effort put into theses videos and although some entries were rough around the edges, I saw some really great amvs this year! Good luck to everyone!

I remember when I entered pro in 2005, my video was completely shit on with everyone going "lol" after every statement like they were real hot shit internet badasses. When it was revealed it was mine, they all got apologetic. :roll: :nono:

It went on to win 2 awards, so love will always triumph over circlejerking.

Be good to each other next time. <3 :cupcake:

I remember that Pro. I think that was the last time I entered Pro. I wasn't fond of how people went from valid criticism into the realm of attacking the editors, despite not being absolutely sure who made what. I was pretty disappointed.

Votes speak louder than criticism. I got a lot of criticism for my Rio vid two years ago and won Best Upbeat anyway, and that was over Fierce which won Best Video.

Everyone needs to enter Akross. Y'all thought WE were harsh lol.

I am also going to say I find it rather obnoxious a lot of people are pretending there literally were no reviews that were actually properly critical... which is wrong. There were actually more that were fair and balanced than shit talky honestly, but it feels like people are just reading one of the shit talking reviews and judging them all based on that, which does not represent all of them. XD I'm not saying there weren't some rude reviews, there were, but no reason to overblow the situation xP
