sasha_feather, I also really enjoyed ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
beccatoria's NaViMaMo vidlets. I particularly liked the ones for The Dark Knight and for the Star Wars saga, though I also thought the BSG/"Cold War" vidlet was interesting. I continue to have strong reservations about vids to Janelle Monáe's music, but I think this vid deals with concerns that are similar enough that it's not blatantly appropriative but rather creates an interesting commentary on both source and song--though the song is still far ahead of the source, I think, in terms of complexity. Though I haven't finished BSG yet; maybe when I do I will change my mind. Anyway.

I like that "Cold War" vid a lot, but I think it definitely requires knowing BSG. And knowing how broken the source material is, how artless the ending is, which is something the vid doesn't try to change or mess with.
