AMV Theatres | AMC Theatres Nicole Kidman commercial parody | Anime NYC - Momocon - Sakura-Con 2023

First, if you haven't seen the AMC Theatres commercial that Nicole Kidman did, go watch that first (it's here on KZbin and was memed like a year ago).
Second, yah I know I'm late on the meme but Sakura-Con and Anime Boston's AMV contests have a commercial category and I thought this would be perfect for it and so I tossed this together a few days before the deadline and submitted last minute to annoy the coordinators. I've been making AMVs and going to cons for almost 20 years and it's always great, so this is tongue-in-cheek poking fun as one of the long-standing AMV weebs who attends these AMV theaters regularly.

This isn't just comedy gold for a commercial parody of Nicole Kidman's AMC ad, but the fact that an AMV like this proves NO anime convention is ever complete without an AMV contest included in their lineup. These need to keep going everywhere! Brilliant editors like ourselves deserve to showcase what we're all capable of in this line of work. I give this one a solid A+!

I saw this at the closing ceremony at Sakura Con today! This was REALLY funny!

[@Silvercoat]

Good stuff! Glad to see a new video from an AMV master! Good luck in the Sakura-Con contest!

[@FashionableJellyfish]

This video told no lies, perfection we don't deserve you

[@Ileia]

no YOU! You are a treasure

[@supern0vae]

There was a debate as to when this *wouldn't* open the Sakura-Con AMV room every year. I think consensus was somewhere around 2040?

[@Seek1878]

Gold!

[@chrisll3874]

Sakura-Con 2023 winner!! Is it my imagination or do you just win every year!!? I love you and congratulations on another deserved win! I voted for you!!! You nailed it!! Where do you get that voice!? lol thanks. I like to add you to yet another playlist of Sakura-Con's champs this year a playlist of 2023 champs. I will give your channel full credit of course so funny. I see your stuff when it premieres and I was send this one all over. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Ileia]

Thank you so much! I've been a finalist but this is actually my first win since 2019. I usually try to submit every year because I like the coordinators and want to support their contest. I've been to the con a few times but I'm on the opposite coast so it's not always possible. Sadly, had to skip this year. Oh and that amazing voice is actually a friend of mine @FallChild42 (his channel is in the description). I sent him a script, and he gave me some notes and recorded lines for me (and helped me with some VFX advice). He's super talented all around, he did the Pochita Depot commercial that was also a finalist! Adding to a playlist is fine, there's already a few that I've seen on KZbin. Just don't reupload, please! Thank youuuu

[@chrisll3874]

@Ileia Thanks!!! I always love your stuff. If you make out west next year I would love to meet you! I volunteer at registration each year. You have inspired my son to try his hand at this. I have a tear jerking Cowboy Bebop idea I want him to try. Thanks again!!

[@mewpudding138]

This video gives me life. Great job Ileia!

[@meleechampion]

So true bestie

[@VHenrik007]

Just seen it this weekend at Mondocon, and it is absolutely fantastic. Would you be okay with it if we made a Hungarian dubbed version of it?

[@Ileia]

Of course, that would be awesome! Do you have a discord or twitter so I can DM you a copy without the english voice track?

[@SilkAMV]

Please oh please send this to every con to play at the beginning of every contest.

[@OttoOG3]

[@tessiaofficial5955]

Hi! Sorry to leave a comment on a random video. I believe you made the fictoromantic amv with my love story with Yamada kun for otakon! Sorry if it’s not you, but I was wondering if there were any plans to post it? It was my favorite amv and I’ve been checking every day to see if it’s posted

[@Ileia]

I’ll be posting it soon! I rushed it for the Otakon deadline so I’ve been working on fixing the parts I’m not happy with 😅

[@Ileia]

Just uploaded it!

[@SukiNoKoe]

10/10 I want AMC to play this instead

[@Ronlaer]

Great Ileia, please make more

[@AlexFranz]
