This video was never finished. It chronicles my brief, one day attempts to find an online source of Rebirth of Mothra 3 in English. I did this because I knew it had not been released in the United States, except on television, and the only bootlegs I could see were Japanese DVD-rips. It just baffled me that nobody had recorded the English broadcast. I didn't think it was true, so I tried to prove myself wrong. Seems I was right though, nobody ever recorded it.

The clip shows David, in American Werewolf, flipping through television stations. I replaced the images on the TV with clips of other things, including Santa Christ, Awesome Center, and 500 Movie Moments. I removed it because I felt that people should watch the videos from their original uploaders and not my out of context chunks. I did try making an alternate version using my own videos, but it just confused people. 

This video was a sloppy and quick automatic montage set to the 2005 Mallard Bros anthology "Special Day 3." Auto-Montages are created automatically by Windows Movie Maker 6, meaning that my creative input was equivalent to telling the artist what to paint and then watching TV for several hours. The featured music was "One Winged Angel" from Final Fantasy VII. I decided to un-post it due to its esoteric subject matter. Not to mention its absurd 7 minute runtime. 

These two separate videos showed the various nods and homages to American Werewolf in London made throughout the work of Edgar Wright (Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz.) I did not think either of my vids was done very well. The first got blocked in Britain, where more people were likely to watch it. The second had no audio, since I couldn't find a clip of "Shaun" in any language other than German at the time. To put it bluntly, I could have done it better, and wish I had. 

This was, sadly, my most viewed original video of all time. Though "original" may be a stretch.

The video shows the famous transformation scene from American Werewolf in London, but replaces the normal audio with different music. In the movie, the song "Blue Moon" by Sam Cooke plays over the scene. Elmer Bernstein, the composer for the film, had written a musical score for the transformation, but Director John Landis chose not to use it.

The composition was performed and released by City Of Prague Philharmonic in 2005. My video synced this performance with the original scene to show what it may have been like with the composer's alternate music. However, the views came flooding in very quickly, and many, many people complained about my alterations. Since the point was not to show the scene out of context, and therefore keep people from watching the whole film, I pulled it. Too bad too. I liked it. 

A brief, stupid video of me playing the Trogdor game over on homestarrunner.com. The theme music plays over the video, and I totally fail at life when attempting to stomp peasants and burninate the thatch-roofed cottages.

The original descriptions reads: "Me playing Trogdor. Yeah, I was bored enough to record it... So?"

This was a brief montage of early plane test footage set to the theme music of the film Airplane! Though I liked the video, and people thought it was funny, I did not compile the actually montage portion. I had borrowed it from another YouTube user. However, I forgot until later. It felt weird posting a video that was technically by someone else, even though dozens of people had used the exact same compilation of clips. Eventually though, my nagging weird feeling got the best of me and I removed it. 

This is one of the dumbest things I've made. I cannot stand it. The vid shows several scenes from Transformers, and tallies some of the toilet humor jokes. That's it. That's all. A little counter comes up and goes "ding." I made it while bored, and got lazy midway through editing. Thus, I cut it short, and it suffered even more. Thankfully, this abomination went unnoticed for a long while ...

Until YouTube user AeonXero became enraged and posted this:

"Wow! A WHOLE 5 PEE jokes in a 2.5 hour movie! OMG! THE MOVIE SUCKS NOW! call the police! Call the FCC! Amazing how some people can be so obessed. You're a moron, honestly. Can you not enjoy the movie? OMG! PEE JOKES! my... maturity... going... down... must... post on... youtube... LOL, get a life, you piece of shit. Do you know how many references of poo and fart are in Austin Powers? I don't see you referring to that."  - AeonXero

What an ass. Also, what does Austin Powers have to do with this? Other movies with poo jokes = relevant? 

Before I really understood the point of "5 Second Movies" or who created them, I just thought it was a random YouTube meme and tried to contribute. I didn't realized that the originals were made by Doug Walker, of whom I am a big fan. I also thought the point was to literally compress the movie to a 5 second chunk. The real point, however, is to show a clip from a movie, then a second clip that shows how the first is ironic in a funny way. The videos are almost never 5 seconds long. In any case, my 5 second version of Airplane! showed, in order, the title screen, the "shit hitting the fan," and the ending title. It was dumb, and it totally missed the point.

One of my favorite bands is Reel Big Fish. And their most popular and prolific song is "Beer." Excluding live performances, there are multiple versions of the song. (Around six or seven back then.) This video took the [then] released versions and melded them together. It then synced the meldley with a live performance of the song from one of the band's concert DVDs. This created a straight play through of the song that switched versions about once every fifty seconds. Even though I liked this video, I thought it felt out of place, and decided to remove it.
