Well here it is, as I promised a while back....my Matrix Music Video, which I've called The Burly Man. And its actually my birthday today - its the 4th of November here in Australia right now, so think of it as my present to you! ;D I've been a bit distracted lately and the file has actually been up since the end of september but I've only just gotten around to posting it now. I had a lot of fun with this when I edited it and it only took a couple of days to finish completely (as oppsosed to the weeks I spent on Ode To The Grammaton) This one is not only edited to the beat like Ode, but I have tried to match the lyrics of the song to with whats happening in each scene. Its basically an action vid with some humourous elements thrown in the mix. Heres the link: files.filefront.com/3658539;/mpdev(You will need to create a user account first & there may be some waiting, but nothing like Fileplanets waiting times).I hope you enjoy it.

O...M...G!!! Can't think of enough superlatives for this. I watched it three times in succession and it's just sooooooo professional. That you know these three films intimately is obvious. Absolutely love the 'He says. She says. Bullshit' parts and the 'So come and get it'. Perfect timing and linking of lyric and action (tho' the more conservative part of my middle-class brain did cover its virtual ears at the amount of 'F' words! ;D) The 'freight train' bit was just excellent....I could go on and on. Brilliant. ;D Oh, yes...very quick PS card

So...based off Libby's statements... I'm gonna take a stab at what I'm going to hear soon... The "he says she says" reminds me of Break Stuff by limpbizkit... and the "freight train" brings to mind No Leaf Clover.
Am I correct?

Didn't mean to put in 'spoiler'...but you'll see it is limpbizkit as soon as you load the file...I didn't need to create a user account btw, it just loaded. ;D Again utterly brilliant.

You are too kind with your words Libby. And thankyou for the birthday card...it rocks! I'm pleased you enjoyed it. I make these things for myself as much as I make them for others to enjoy. I think even people who don't really like the Matrix might get a kick out of this - if only for the "he said, she said" section that you mentioned. And I just had to do the lip sync part for "bullshit"! ;D When I heard the song on the radio a few weeks before I made the vid - I knew it was perfect for what I wanted to do. I have a few ideas for a few more vids over the next 12 months - hoping to cut a Crow vid, Tombstone Vid & maybe even a Hellboy vid. I just wish there was a Movie Music Video site somewhere where all people can share their MMV's...but unfortuneatly there doesn't seem to be such a place. Hitmanyr2K has a nice site (as does Repeat Offender[?], but I don't know of many others that are as good as either of those. But if I ever win the lotto, setting one up will be the first thing I do. And thats good that you don't need an account to download.....but if anyone runs into problems I suggest you do anyway - just in case that works.

Cheers, MrA...hope you have/had (temporal shifts fry my overtaxed little brain) a great birthday.
A Hellboy vid would be amazing...I've got the DVD and it's just so much fun!

Great work Mr A! I love it, it comes across as really professional. Well done! I have a few ideas for a few more vids over the next 12 months - hoping to cut a Crow vid, Tombstone Vid & maybe even a Hellboy vid. A Hellboy one? Yeh, now that'd really be something! I'd love to see your take on that!
