(no subject)
The idea for this vid hijacked my brain and refused to take no for an answer, no matter how much it freaked me out. This is my take on the darker interpretations of Sheppard's character and what separates him from others, specifically in the context of his military career and the attitude of said military towards homosexuality.
Title: Faggot
Artist: Mindless Self Indulgence
Vidder: Gabby
Summary:
"Among the causes which drive homosexuals to war perhaps the most tragic one is that wish or hope, expressed by more than one of their number, that a bullet might put an end to their life... Driven by this feeling, many a [gay] officer exposed himself to the thickest rain of bombs and the most deadly attacks."
-The Sexual History of the World War as cited in Conduct Unbecoming
John Sheppard has always been an outsider.
Pairing/Character: Sheppard, Sheppard/McKay
Category: Drama, Character Study, Slash
Format: DivX Video
Size: 17.7 MB
Warning: This song contains adult language.
I understand that the title of this vid is an extremely charged word and, while I think that, in this context, it is an expression of anger against homophobia and hatred, I would be more than happy to discuss people's reactions to it in the comments.
You can download it here or here
Feedback is of course always appreciated but this vid is kind of a radical departure from my usual style and I would be especially interested to hear what people have to say about it.
Enjoy!
