Doctor Who fans: go at once and watch this utterly gorgeous vid by [personal profile] such_heights. Doctor/ TARDIS, to Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne."

Sometimes I wish I actually knew Anything At All about vidding, because I have a recurring urge to make a Rev fanvid of "Man in Black" (or possibly a fanvid of "Man in Black" expanded to other TV clergy, though this is mainly for a cheap gag with the Master...)

But I don't actually know anything about vidding, even the basics and right now I probably don't have time to learn.

The Long Spear is a rather nice vid - general tribute to Star Trek as a whole, in the light of the new movie. In general, I'm not a fan of vids with additional sound added to the base song, and at first I really couldn't see why "The Boxer" was an appropriate choice - other than vaguely so for teenie-delinquent-rebootverse-Jim - but then they used the original final verse, which Simon and Garfunkel never recorded, and suddenly everything fell into place...

Somewhat more slick, and an awful lot of fun: Swing, by [personal profile] marycrawford. TOS, ensemble, but with a heavy emphasis on Uhura.

A Three era UNIT fan vid, "The U-Team", using, as you may have guessed, the theme from The A Team. Funny and well done (especially the bit involving the Doctor....)

Here is a link to an extremely funny Black Books vid, to the theme tune from Friends. Which is appropriate, in a twisted sort of way.

In other news, I have just discovered that I washed and tumble-dried my favourite cashmere-silk turquoise pullover. Astonishingly, it came out unharmed, and looking like new.

Well, after spending altogether too much time this evening watching vids, I can only say thank you for the recs so far - I think my favourite so far is In Exchange for Your Tomorrows, a Snape-centric vid by Lim to 'The Houseof the Rising Sun' (in a rather unusual version).

Also, [livejournal.com profile] calapine's Timelords built this City on Rock and Roll will almost certainly never stop being amusing. Calapine is also responsible for The Man in Black: a Delgado! Master fan vid, which is wrong on many levels but still irresistible (much like the Master, really.)

I could link to Allchanges Doctor/ Jack vid to the Wise Guy's "Ohrwurm", but then one of you would kill me. What's more, I'd deserve it.

Though it is rather well done. Ich bin ziemlich penetrant, sonst wäre ich gar nicht so bekannt...

I keep thinking I would like to watch some fanvids, because I can see how there's great potential there for saying funny or clever things about (media) sources, but I have no idea where to start. Luckily, I have a flist...

So: does anyone have recs for brilliant vids? You know my fandoms, more or less (and if you don't, my interests reveal them).
