Top 5 AU Vids
And I’m here to remind you of the mess you left when you went away
1. Green Eyed Monster by Little Heaven - All - I thought this was a really interesting take on the Buffy and Angel relationship, looking at all the other women in Angel’s life and particularly the parallels between Buffy and Darla which has always struck me as a great theme.for a vid to explore in more detail.
She held Wanda’s hand they worked out a plan and it didn’t take them long to decide -- that Earl had to die
2. Earl from “Country Cavalcade” by sisabet and Dr. Dawn - All - I think this was the first AU vid I ever saw and I found the reworking of BtVS clips to this segment incredibly well done. The vid actually contains three short segments but I felt this one was genius.
It’s cold and lonely in the deep, dark night
3. Paradise by the Dashboard Light by J-Dos - All - Emphasizing the high school romantic experience in BtVS it was fun to see these rather complex and rather high hurdle relationships reframed as the typical high school angstfest.
I know you think it’s just a fallacy but since your Mom walked out your Dad’s been cruising guys like me
4. Stacey’s Dad by Charmax - All - I have to admit I’d hardly given a thought to the possibilities of Giles and Oz but I found the video an incredibly fun take to the song.
I’ll never find someone quite like you again
5. Touched by Xandra - All - An Angel crossover vid with QaF, I have to say it really made me want to read some crossover fic. This pair would be pretty interesting to watch, though I can’t imagine how they’d ever get together with each trying to out-alpha the other.
