Feb. 6th, 2025 08:22 pmIt's Festivids! I received two extremely delightful Court Jester vids -- Make 'Em Laugh and Better Not Wake The Baby -- both in their own ways replete with incredibly good jokes and beautiful encapsulations of the Particular Energy of this movie.
There are also a bunch of other great vids this year; I haven't had a chance to watch all the ones I wanted yet but here's a bunch I enjoyed from my first pass:
You Told The Drunks I Knew Karate (Derry Girls)
nearly impossible to go wrong with a You Told The Drunks I Knew Karate vid and this is perhaps the perfect source for it
Fabulous (Derry Girls)
Sister Michael is so majestic
Next Episode (Murderbot)
really impressed by the conceit and the technical skill on display
Phantom Stranger (Severance)
creeped me the hell out [enormously laudatory]
Cross My Heart I Hope U Die (Severance)
incredible evocation of the entire thriller that is The Helly Show
The Hour is Yours (Severance)
great joke until it isn't in the best possible way
We Were Here (Space Sweepers)
beautiful vid that filled me with Emotion about this movie and all the very hot people in it
The Spear Cuts Through Water (The Spear Cuts Through Water)
beautiful book vid that evokes all the layers of the source text
Perfect Femme (Stick It)
it IS a femininomenon!! made me immediately want to go rewatch the whole movie
Arnaq (True Detective: Night Country)
I've not actually seen this show but the vid gave me chills
