AMV Pop Culture (As Performed By Alchemists)

Parodies! Parodies everywhere!
This is my video for Round 3 of The Quickening (a contest in which you get a random song and a week to edit an AMV to it) and I decided to do a different take on the "pop culture" aspect and make it about AMV pop culture. If you haven't seen a lot of classic AMVs, you might not get the parodies, but that's okay, down below (or at the end of the video) there's a list of every video that I parodied along with the timestamp of where it appears in the video, so you can go find them and check them out!

That is especially good news! Bums me out when people don't get the references, they're some of my all-time favorite videos, so it makes me happy when someone does. :D

[@TotallySuprCoolAwsm]

Haha this is great! I'm not usually phased by Anime AMV's (and there's just sooo many of them), but this was really fun piece of editing. AND I understood the references x] Really clever idea; you're a great editor!

[@mmmandarinorange]

I might not recognize all of these, but the ones I did just flooded me with nostalgia. Excellent work.

[@animAeAMV]

omg that was hilarious Ileia!!! x'DD i knew most of the amv parodies u were going for 8D these must have been fun to do! too awesome ^^

[@Vivifx]

This was really clever Illeia! Of course -- I should have expected nothing less from you. XD and I am Winry...awesome

[@FallChild42]

This is probably one of my top favourite videos from you!

[@xDreww]

LOL omg this was pretty funny to watch. Gotta say..this is pretty creative. I tip my hat to you, if I was waring one right now. "Euphoria" by Koopiskeva , Pencil head and the Anime Ops was great! Really loved it! You always come up with the craziest things xD Good luck !

[@Animegal6]

oh wow! :O this video has such a great idea! and yes i did notice some different takes on amvs! fantastic job!

[@pandbgt01]

Wow. I have no idea how you did this because it was it just mind blowing. I was a huge fan of Doki Doki and I had no idea there was a "Pop Up" AMV made. LMAO.

[@PedroGomesOn]

Very good idea and very funny to watch, Thanks for sharing, I didn't recognized all the references but anyway it's really funny.. :D Good Job xD and good luck for the quickening!

[@xXTheHeroicGamerXx]

xDDD Parodies everywhere indeed XD. Nice job lleia :D

[@Ileia]

Just an FYI, I try not to clog up my video comments with my own responses, so if I didn't respond to you, that doesn't mean I don't care/didn't read it, I just didn't have anything of value to add other than a bunch of repeated "Thank you!" messages. I DO appreciate everyone's comments (good or bad), so thank you for all of them!

[@Nicolchen84]

YES! this was AMAZING! :) well,even tho i didnt get the parody aspect of your video i still enjoyed the whole thing :) i haven´t seen lots of your videos yet, but from what i´ve seen i´d guess you like to edit rather funny stuff? ^^ I actually just started to edit this song,so this is quite inspirational! :) when i started my video i thought about going with action and stuff, but the more i added,the funnier it got,so ehm...yeah...anyways! Thanks for the good laugh! Love your style already! :D

[@Ileia]

The instrumental section is from Daft Punk's Aerodynamic and the "Time goes by so slowly" lyrics are from Madonna's Hung Up.

[@StarTrinity009]

So fun. Love the parodies. They're well done.

[@AzexousA]

I like how you put Mally's name under Edward..quite contradicting height-wise, lolol. Lovely vid btw.

[@miniflink5682]

This is the best thing I've ever seen!!!

[@Kappoose]

I've only seen like 1 episode, but I still find this really funny :D

[@AkaruiLR]

Best one I have ever watched!

[@seizethesubsea]

You always create the best amvs! Ileia, you've been my favorite editor ever since I started watching them. So good luck in The Quickening. You're gonna win for sure!

[@Dibxmonkey]

You are a really talented editor.

[@ImBoredxHelpMe]

Haha, can't say I've seen something like that before. Great parody!

[@blak100]

I thord at first that this woes a MEP XD grate job :3

[@meleechampion]

I love the part where you parodied everyone's favorite COSBY BEBOP

[@Ileia]

No, it's one of the FMA:B endings that looks like a colored crayon drawing. I just played around with the black/white/contrast/etc to make it look similar.

[@Ileia]

Haha, I wish! It's just one of the FMA:B endings. It's normally sort of a colored crayon bit, but I played with some black/white/contrast to make it look pencil....ish.....

[@Kyoko0815]

This AMV really makes me happy

[@xDreww]

haha I know I noticed! For some reason..that guys smile reminds me slighty...of me. xD I laughed a lot when I saw that haha.

[@FaytxZenAMV]

My lord, you are amazinggg ;A;

[@XdakotasapphireX]

this is so epic.

[@HitodamaKyrie]

I didn't get all the references, but I got a number of them. Such as Koop's Euphoria. ...Now I feel old.

[@hilink24]

why you guys so amazing?

[@Ileia]

And a quack quack here and a quack quack there. Here a quack, there a quack, everywhere a GIRL YOU AIN'T NEED NO MAAAAAN

[@TheNinteen20]

Ah, good ol' Pencilhead. Makes me teary eyed knowing that Qwaqa is finished making amvs. By the way, did you actually animate that segment from scratch, or was that in the show? (I haven't seen FMA, so I wouldn't know). It looks really impressive, especially considering it's only for a fraction of the video.

[@TheOblivion01]

Really nice video :).

[@tehawsumninja]

THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL

[@KarollXGZ3]

just like what was dreww was editing .. T_T now it's stuck in my head again

[@NaviNavi]

Awesome video. you are very good

[@Raynespyder]

holy shit, awesome :D

[@Ileia]

Haha, I hope you liked your cameo! (the eight editors I listed are the eight who are editing this round)

[@winnkey]

WOW!!! talk about an homage to AMV's this in it sellf is almost a little history leason on some of the clasics (would we call them classics? its not like they have been around that long :P)

[@clichechaos]

Majestic as ducks

[@Cirucci]

Popup video! Wow, I caught that one.

[@Malster3]

I'm ed - U - WARD ELRIC

[@Ileia]

I guess you could say it sort of is, since I emulated the styles of multiple editors, haha.

[@Ileia]

Qwaqa said as much when he announced his latest video on AMVorg, but I assume he's posted about it elsewhere.

[@Ileia]

I /did/ consider it, actually, I just didn't end up finding a good spot where I'd put it.

[@Ileia]

....and it would've made the parodies fail, the parody aspect is the entire point of the video.

[@winnkey]

also would of been amazing to see some shonen bushido in there but yea could understand why you would not consider puting that in, 10 seconds of that would be almost as long as making all that...

[@RSprinter]

1:15-1:21 Minute Manlyness explosion ^^

[@Ileia]

Considering my time frame, I didn't put much thought into who got what character except for the gender. :P

[@Ileia]

It's not snice?! D: *throws video away* Now I have to start over!

[@ShinAMVs]

I dug it though, so if you're still throwing it away, at least there's a hole to bury it in.

[@PeachyPieBrony96]

[@masterme10]
