03:50:20 <nathanbp> ok, I'm through with all these sucky shows this season, it's time for GaoGaiGar
03:51:45 <Puyopuyo> A manly show for a manly taste?
04:03:01 <nathanbp> is ep 2 designed to give people seizures?
04:04:08 <Puyopuyo> It takes a while to cut down, but yeah, it's a bit seizure-tastic.
04:04:53 <Puyopuyo> If you stop responding, I may have to call an ambulance.
04:13:34 <nathanbp> OH MAN HE GETS ATTACKED WHILE TRANSFORMING
04:17:56 <Puyopuyo> Well...yeah.
04:20:32 <Puyopuyo> What, you think this is one of those ordinary shows where people just stand there and let the hero do his thing?
04:20:37 <Puyopuyo> This show's too manly for that.
04:44:52 <nathanbp> for some reason I thought this was from the 80s but it's really from '97
04:44:55 <nathanbp> so it's post-Eva
04:46:05 <Puyopuyo> Yup
04:46:13 <Puyopuyo> Does have that 80s vibe though

15:11:50 <Pipian> So
15:11:54 <Pipian> As a heads up
15:12:03 <Pipian> Expect to be seeing a lot more of my brother
15:12:12 <Pipian> He's going to be going to Rutgers in the fall
15:12:21 <Puyopuyo> why?
15:12:32 <Puyopuyo> He graduated and he decided to go to RUTGERS?
15:28:37 <Pipian> Ypretty much
15:28:53 <Puyopuyo> Oy
15:29:00 <Puyopuyo> You know, I've NEVER met him?
15:29:25 <Pipian> I know
15:29:43 <Pipian> I expect that there is now a possibility you may, which is why I bring up the point just so that you are aware
15:32:46 <Puyopuyo> Better brush up on my familiarity with Crosby, Stills, Nash and/or Young.
16:41:15 <Puyopuyo> Hrm: http://www.youtube.com/user/BestClassicAMVs
16:41:19 <Puyopuyo> I don't think I agree with this.
16:41:36 <Puyopuyo> That said, some of these I've definitely seen before, and the selection is definitely of the top 10% of AMVs in the past ten years.
16:42:08 <Puyopuyo> And for humor value, Euphoria is on there, Ian. Which we've lambasted before. FUCK THAT SPINNING BAR.
16:42:22 <nathanbp> wow I think I've only seen 3-4 of those
16:43:09 <Puyopuyo> A bunch are AKROSS-based, so they're not on amvs.org
16:43:17 <Puyopuyo> As they're all russian, and they've got their own site for that.
16:44:28 <Puyopuyo> I think my problem is that a bunch of these fail Ian's and my 45 second test, mostly because they're AKROSS based, which have their own standard.
16:44:46 <Puyopuyo> American AMVs tend to be ~4 minutes and MUST catch your attention by the 45 second mark.
16:45:06 <Puyopuyo> Russian-based AMV/MADs seem to be ~6 minutes, and I don't know what a suitable interest cut-off is.
16:45:44 <nathanbp> I have to say I mostly agree with the 45 second test
16:46:15 <Puyopuyo> Well, yeah. Given 4 minutes, if they can't grab your attention by near the 1/4 mark, they're doing it wrong.
16:46:43 <nathanbp> I'm pretty amused that the original Eva footage was so horrible that everyone has redone their old Eva AMVs
16:47:14 <Puyopuyo> Heh
16:47:23 <Puyopuyo> I'm waiting for them to redo Redeath.
16:48:16 <Puyopuyo> ...huh. I've definitely seen Toushi before...
16:48:31 <nathanbp> Please tell me that Minami-ke doesn't actually count as classic...
16:50:07 <Puyopuyo> Nah, it's not the series that's classic, it's the AMV.
16:50:45 <Puyopuyo> Oh hey, it's Jihaku.
16:50:49 <Puyopuyo> This is like ancient.
16:51:59 <Puyopuyo> ...yeah, the cuts to the actual video STILL annoy me.
16:52:45 <Puyopuyo> Yeah, definitely seen Flames of Heaven before.
16:56:41 <nathanbp> Not that impressed by most of these >_>;;
16:56:48 <nathanbp> so far at least
16:57:13 <Puyopuyo> Neither am I, but again, compared to the major batch...
16:57:24 <nathanbp> true
16:57:26 <Puyopuyo> I think they're half decent.
16:58:04 <nathanbp> is there some way to make youtube default to max resolution?
16:58:08 <Puyopuyo> I could see showing most of these at RSFA.
16:58:10 <Puyopuyo> I don't believe so.
16:58:17 <Puyopuyo> It auto-scales based on how it perceives your connection.
16:59:16 <nathanbp> really? seems like it always leaves me at 360p unless I change it
16:59:27 <Puyopuyo> I've had it default to 240p
16:59:53 <nathanbp> Ick serious bleach AMV
17:00:47 <nathanbp> hey it's actually decent
17:01:08 <Puyopuyo> I don't think anything in this batch fails to be "decent"
17:01:25 <Puyopuyo> I may not like them, but they're done with a decent sense of technical execution and thematic appropriateness.
17:01:34 <Puyopuyo> Of course as a snob, they all suck, rar.
17:05:16 <nathanbp> help tempted to watch Princess Tutu again
17:05:30 <Puyopuyo> Can't help you there, I'm already opening up my DVDs.
17:06:15 <nathanbp> help tempted to watch Shana S2
17:06:29 <nathanbp> (j/k)
17:07:53 <nathanbp> I have to say I really did like Shana Season 1
17:08:35 <Puyopuyo> Stupid Black Lagoon Russian AMV. Of course it's pro-the stupid Russian character.
17:08:42 <Puyopuyo> ...also set to My Chemical Romance.
17:08:53 <Puyopuyo> Good technique interspersing manga frames with the anime though.
17:09:01 <Puyopuyo> Meh, Shana. It went on too damn long.
17:09:01 <nathanbp> wait you care about Black Lagoon at all? >_>
17:09:11 <Puyopuyo> Not really.
17:09:13 <Puyopuyo> I hated that series.
17:09:19 <Puyopuyo> But I hate some characters more than others.
17:09:19 <nathanbp> oh I agree, I didn't care to watch S2
17:09:32 <nathanbp> but I thought S1 was good
17:10:40 * Puyopuyo shrugs.
17:10:45 <Puyopuyo> Not really my style of series.
17:11:05 <nathanbp> oh man it's another amv that makes me vaguely want to watch Euraka Seven
17:11:31 <Puyopuyo> I don't think I agree with this Youtube account holder's choice of including Sexy. Yes, it did well at AKROSS 2010, but that's not "classic"
17:12:27 <nathanbp> well I don't agree with the inclusion of anything from after 2004 so...
17:12:29 <nathanbp> :P
17:12:36 <Puyopuyo> I'm okay with up through 2007.
17:12:41 <Puyopuyo> 4 years is a long time in the anime industry.
17:13:18 <nathanbp> I don't think the time frame of classic gets to move up with time
17:13:33 <nathanbp> it's clearly defined by when I started watching AMVs
17:14:20 <nathanbp> I guess I actually like Jihaku
17:14:28 <nathanbp> this may be just because it includes Mahoraba
17:14:32 <Puyopuyo> Well, it's pretty classic.
17:14:44 <Puyopuyo> I am kind of astounded.
17:14:50 <nathanbp> at ?
17:14:53 <Puyopuyo> This is totally a CROSSOVER ROMANCE AMV.
17:14:58 <Puyopuyo> Tombstone for Love.
17:15:06 <Puyopuyo> I have NEVER seen someone attempt this sort of thing before.
17:15:15 <nathanbp> oh is that was it was
17:15:17 <nathanbp> that makes sense
17:15:23 <nathanbp> I didn't recognize any of it
17:15:45 <Puyopuyo> It's Tenjo Tenge xover Shaman King, mostly.
17:15:50 <Puyopuyo> With clips from other things.
17:16:37 <nathanbp> ah
17:17:32 <Puyopuyo> That's...really bizarre...
17:17:45 <Puyopuyo> I'm not sure that it worked, but at the same time, I'm not sure that it DIDN'T WORK.
17:19:03 <nathanbp> ugh still so many of these to go through.
17:19:28 <Puyopuyo> ...I don't get Clarissa.
17:19:34 <Puyopuyo> (The Minami-ke one)
17:19:42 <Puyopuyo> It seems almost downright generic. What's it doing in this batch?
17:19:48 <Puyopuyo> It's also 2008.
17:20:19 <Puyopuyo> I don't understand the Russian sense of humor, I guess.
17:22:10 <Puyopuyo> I remember Engel...
17:23:27 <nathanbp> I'm kinda embarrassed at how many of the series in Shounen Bushidou I recognize
17:23:57 <Puyopuyo> Heh
17:24:04 <Puyopuyo> Nathan:HE LIKES SHOUNEN!
17:24:21 <Puyopuyo> Well, that's enough AMV binge for me.
17:24:29 <Puyopuyo> Time to get something to noche on.
17:25:52 <nathanbp> I'm watching the race adn then I'm done
17:27:52 <Puyopuyo> Jenn showed that one the last time I saw it.

19:32:40 <Puyopuyo> Huh. Funimation let their licenses for Higurashi and Zero no Tsukaima lapse.
19:32:53 <Puyopuyo> ...sweet, they totally can't bust me for seeding Higurashi anymore.
19:35:53 <nathanbp> They had ZnT?!?
19:37:09 <Pipian> Puyopuyo
19:37:12 <Pipian> Good luck with that
19:37:17 <Pipian> They'll sue you anyway
19:37:17 <Puyopuyo> ?
19:37:45 <Puyopuyo> Nah, they'll DCMA me anyway.
19:37:52 <Puyopuyo> *DMCA
19:37:56 <Pipian> Exactly.
19:37:59 <Pipian> Whichever
19:38:08 <Puyopuyo> Plus I think they've got better things to do. Like sue people torrenting One Piece.
19:38:18 <Puyopuyo> In Texas, because of the very friendly pro-copyright judges there.
19:38:40 <Puyopuyo> Nathan: Yeah, apparently they grabbed ZnT.
19:38:50 <Puyopuyo> I'm kind of surprised that they're letting licenses lapse.
19:38:53 <Puyopuyo> I guess the money's not in it.
19:39:05 <Pipian> Anime is imploding anyway.
19:40:19 <Puyopuyo> Has been for a while now.
19:40:26 <Puyopuyo> Clearly it's because of all the pirates!

20:01:53 <nathanbp> Wow ep 5 of GGG was the worst
20:02:21 <nathanbp> They did Final Fusion but without breaking the glass to press the button
20:02:34 <nathanbp> that's the best part of the show!!
20:32:54 <Puyopuyo> Heh.
20:46:36 <nathanbp> so as of ep 7...they've used LinerGao in 3 of 7 episodes!??
20:47:45 <Puyopuyo> Yup.
20:50:19 <nathanbp> I guess it wasn't totally useless after all
22:35:47 <StriderTol1> I was going through my old AMVs recently. That list http://www.youtube.com/user/BestClassicAMVs#g/u is clearly missing most of the classics
