Srs philosophical question . . .

[promethia_tenk]

Why is it all fanvids are adoring? I mean, let's face it, there are basically three varieties of fanvid: shmoop, awesomeness, and emo. [/generalization]

Where's the critique?  Where's the snark?  Where are the vids that take the hero down a peg or two, or at least slap him about the head a bit?  Where's the mockery?  Where, in other words, is the vid about the Tenth Doctor set to this song:

Little Jackie, "The World Should Revolve Around Me"  (Sorry, embedding disabled)

I mean, look at some of this:

Ain't nothin' gonna get between me and my flow,
Ain't nothin' gonna come between me and my afro . . .

I've had a lot of failed relationships
I don't get involved 'cause I'm not equipped
I believe that the world should revolve around me
I don't see the point of a partnership
It won't be long until I start to trip
Yes sir-ee, the whole world should revolve around me.

There's only one me in the galaxy:
I am an endangered species
This kind of flower don't grow on Earth
Just lettin' ya know, for what it's worth
This kind of knowledge can cause a depression,
So I bide my time with philosophical questions:
Not for nothin', but what came first?
The chicken nugget or the Egg McMuffin?

Tee hee.  And it goes on, in deliciously bouncy, trenchant fashion.

VIVE LA SATIRE!

Or am I just an evil person?

i made a video of Ten once to Team America's "I'm So Ronery" [so ronery and sadry arooonnee...] which i thought was completely hilarious, but doctorwho wouldn't accept it because it was "racist".

hmph.

[promethia_tenk]

Oh, god, I know that song! That would be hilarious.

Yeah, a little bit racist, but . . . if you're watching Ten instead of Kim Jong-Il?

Yeah, hmph.

Oh, god, I love it. That's so brilliant. The emo faces! <3

Hee, that is ace. (Actually, also a bit sad at the end; for all that the business with River should tell him he's not going to be lonely in the future, that scene does rather bring home that he can't have her right then.)

Oh goodness, that's hilarious!!!! And a thing of beauty! Oh poor, poor Ten...

[sea_thoughts]

Oh dear God, that's hilarious!
