FanVid Recs

People are making some really great fanvids for Star Trek XI. Fanvids that send me running to iTunes to buy the song because they make me fall in love with it.

Here are my Favorites:

The Humor

Star Trekkin, by AnineWester: SO FUNNY! This uses the song Star Trekkin by THE FIRM. It uses clips from AOS and the blooper reel. (The link is for YouTube)

Wannabe, by ChildeAtHeart17: (link goes to YouTube). Spice Girls, Chibis and Star Trek. What more can you ask for? HILARIOUS. This had me IN STITCHES within the first FIVE SECONDS, no lie! Give it a chance, it's total crack and I love it. :D

I Love the World, by BigMamaG: You know those Discovery Chanel commercials with the people singing? This is that, but with Star Trek. XD It just tickles me. I laugh every time I watch it. (The link is for YouTube)

Total Crack!

The Internet is for Porn, by Sparklystuff21: As argued by James T. Kirk. Spock is not amused. XD (The link is for YouTube)

There! Right There! by insolitus: The crew debates whether Spock is gay or just foreign. XD Kirk has the final word. Oh, God. This vid is soooo cracky and I adore it. (The link is for YouTube)

Ship Wars related

Respect by bendtothesun: Done in honor of st_respect (which is AMAZING btw, for those of you who haven't been there already), it can also be found on their user info page. Uses Respect by Aretha Franklin and clips from both TOS and AOS. This Vid is pretty damn AWESOME! (YouTube Link)

Tribbles are Artsy by Team Tribble's livelikejack. It uses First Date by Blink-182 and is EPICALLY FUN! It also contains every ship in the 'Fleet. :D (YouTube Link)

General Vids

Welcome Home by drpepperupper: It uses Welcome Home by Radical Face. THIS VID IS BEAUTIFUL and perfect in every way. It captures the essence of the movie - all the characters we love being drawn home. Please, please, please give this girl some lovin'. She deserves it. (YouTube Link)

Starts With One, by ChildeAtHeart17: Uses Starts With One by Shiny Toy Guns. Kirk/Spock/McCoy. Dynamic editing and effects, really nice use of color. (The link is for YouTube)

Citizen Soldier, by Echo Starlite: Uses Citizen Soldier by 3 Doors Down. I like how the song and clips reflect the nature of the Enterprise and its crew. They aren't meant to be the last thing standing between peace and disaster but they often are and they save the world every time. (The link is for YouTube)

Fist/Kiss, by OrangeNin: Uses Kiss with a Fist by Florence + The Machine. Kirk/Spock. The editing and the song are just fantastic for these characters. Very well done. :D (The link is for YouTube)

Apple Candy, by talitha78onLJ: Uses Apple Candy by Ben Lee. Kirk/Spock/Uhura. Mesmerizing and beautifully done. The story is conveyed very well. (The link is for YouTube)

Bad Romance by YoruRyu, aka tracker_lucifer: Uses Bad Romance by Lady Gaga. This vid is nearly 5 minutes (short by just 3 seconds) long and keeps my interest the entire time. I really like how shots of the ships and other action sequences are used along with the face/character shots. Kirk/McCoy and Sulu/Chekov, two of my favorite pairings! ^^ (The link is for Youtube)

Hot Mess by ChildAtHeart17: Uses Hot Mess by Cobra Starship. Kirk/McCoy/Spock. Short and sweet HOT. ;D (The link is for YouTube)

It's Now or Never by mizzykittysquees, aka mizzykitty: Uses It's my Life by Bon Jovi. The song fits Kirk and Spock so well as characters; they're both rebels in their own ways. I really like how the scenes from their childhoods were used in this vid. (The link is for YouTube)

If you like one of these vids please leave comment-love for the artists. :D

I hope to add more to this list in the future. ^__^
