nothing to report, except these fan vid recs

Fic news: Meh. Balancing Act part Three will be out soon. Then Magnolia, but maybe that'll happen after X3 comes out (seeing as how it's set after the first movie and nothing will change). And in this time also comes Promises part II. Also, I realized the other day that the next Anita Blake book comes out soon (like, end of June, right?) so I now have an official deadline for Inevitable!

That's a lot of writing.

So, here, have some fan vid recs! Three is a nice round, er, odd number.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Brothers and Sisters by [livejournal.com profile] obsessive24.

This vid focuses on Glory and Ben. I'll be honest, in seasons five of BtVS, I didn't really care too much about Ben, but this vid puts the focus on him and what he's going through. It makes me actually give a damn about the raw deal he got.

Firefly: Must Be Dreaming by [livejournal.com profile] corn_child013 (first vid on the Firefly page)

This is a very fast-paced Serenity vid, River-centric. The main gist is this: Is what River is experiencing real? Is it a dream? How can she know? The cuts between scenes are so fast, but in a clear way, that the viewer cannot know. River's emotions, her fragile mental state, carry across well. I love it (and the end was excellent in nine thousand ways).

Harry Potter: The Boy Was A Puppet by [livejournal.com profile] wistful_fever

This vid sums up all that Harry is going through, all he's been forced to endure as a puppet of those around him (Dumbledore, Voldemort, the Ministry). It puts a very stark face on what Harry is going through.

Go download them!

Yeah, that end sequence is chilling and awesome and totally indictive of River's disconnect with reality. I loves it so.

Thanks for providing the link... I loved the series and Serenity and this just had really made my day. I appreciate the work that went into editing this. The images are syncronized beautifully with the music. I'm really in awe. Plus, the music is so kickass!
