Emotional, tight, rich and set to an incredibly evocative song. Not to be missed.

[x] metallidean_grl - Video of the Week: Today I have chosen a really cool song. It is entitled 'Citizen Soldier' by 3 Doors Down. The title of this vid is Hunters of Darkness. The Winchesters (Dean, Sam & John), as well as other hunters we have seen along the way (Bobby, Ellen, Jo) are hunters of the dark and evil things in this world. As the chorus goes: On that day when you need your brothers and sisters to care, I'll be right here. Citizen soldiers holding the light for the ones that we guide from the dark of despair. Standing on guard for the ones that we sheltered, We'll always be ready because we will always be there. Now, doesn't that describe the Winchesters and other hunters perfectly? This is a great song, and this vid is perfectly done to the words. Enjoy!!

[x] metallidean_grl - Video of the Week: The vidder is malfana and the song of choice is 'The Right Kind of Wrong' by LeAnn Rimes. And the subject - well,,,,,,,,,do you really need to ask, because the title kind of speaks for itself. It is, of course, about our beloved Dean Winchester, in that we all know he really and truly is the Right Kind of Wrong, and we love him for it. Enjoy!!!!

[x] Shall We Dance? - Insta Vid Rec: Because you need a Toy Story vid to Tik Tok. Yes, yes, you do. It is in fact pretty much the most awesome thing I've seen since the Star Trek vid to same.

[x] galadriel34 - Playtime, Day 13: Do you like fanvids? Do you have favourite? I like fanvids. Watch and make it too, but I don’t name one specific fanvid as my favourite. Actually it is a really tricky question, because I like some fanvid, but the original film or tv series not my favourite. Like Titanic or Harry Potter. I also like multifandom vids, because I know how difficult to choose the right scene so many films or shows.

[x] metallidean_grl - Video of the Week: There are so many good ones out there, so many to choose from. But, today I am going to go with a Dean centric vid. Shocker! I know. I am really missing me some Dean, want Season 7 to start now. So, let's settle for this lovely video. The song used is 'Beautiful Loser' by Bob Seger, and the vidder is jaredpadaleckifan. Comments from the vidder about this video are: The premiere of Season 6 of Supernatural inspired me to use this song, because when I saw it on them tv it fit Dean so well. Enjoy!!!!

[x] re(c)-hymenated - Friday: Art & Multimedia: Poison & Wine ToruFinalFantasy | PG | Spoilers: Seasons 1-6 | Warnings: None | Fanvid I wanted make a video without manipulation, something that can explain why i am so in love with them. I honestly don't know if there is one word that can define their relationship, but is one of the most intense, real and beautiful I have ever seen on TV in a long time. While my normal vid tastes tend to run to the rougher, dramatic, and often heart-ripping variety, I like surprises that sneak up on you. That's what Poison & Wine does perfectly. The vidder succeeds in sharing all the moments Dean and Castiel have had without falling back on editing tricks. The scene selection pulls at your heart when it needs to, effectively drawing you into all the emotion of this pairing. We feel every betrayal, every silent prayer, every look of longing or understanding. It's simply a lovely, lovely vid.

[x] sabaceanbabe | book rec: I started reading the books a couple of weeks after dangermousie recommended the first one (The Bronze Horseman and I did not want to put them down. And having finished the third one a couple of days ago, I’ve started reading them again and it’s amazing the difference it makes, knowing what I know now about these characters. Layers, baby. I love layers. They’re not perfect, and some people will be put off by the author’s writing style, which can at times be too detailed or too over the top with emotion, but once I got used to it, I wouldn’t have it any other way. My little brain wants to write fic, but I don’t know where to start. :P I did, however, find a couple of fanvids on YouTube, which surprised the heck out of me. I mean, where in the world did these people find appropriate footage? And in case you’re interested, I’ve embedded a couple that I found to be fairly well-made and appropriate to the story.
