Vid Recs: Supernatural, Supernatural Crossover, Dark Angel, Stargate:Atlantis

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a Vid 'tard.  As in, I really never watch them except on a lark or if they are recc'd to me or if I click on the wrong link or whatever. But despite my vidding-incompetence, I've come across some great ones that I watch over and over again!  I guess that these could all be considered gen.  I tend to go for zippy music, action, and lots of teh pretty, if you're curious about my tastes.  And feel free to rec me anything you think I'd dig.  I'm mainly only into the fandoms below, although I do dig Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles too.

Anyhow, here they be:

Supernatural

Okay, I have to admit that the main reason I don't watch a lot of Supernatural vids in particular is because I DON'T WANT TO CRY. So many of them are so heartbreaking that I just can't handle it.  Seeing Sammy croaking AGAIN and AGAIN makes me very emotional, dammit.  Well, this one is guaranteed to make you smile, instead.  It's just wonderful - really well made and funny and oh dear GAWD does it bring back memories of the 70's.  And yes, I am old enough to sorta kinda remember the 70's.  Channel Hopping by ash4897

Supernatural/Boondock Saints crossover

You get FOUR incredibly hot brothers in this vid, not just two!!  This vid made me want to watch Boondock Saints, which I very promptly did. Yum. And the song is amazing!  Bro-Yay! by hope

Dark Angel

Yay for [personal profile] counteragent's rec!!  This Alec vid inspired me to make up a new word.  Slobbericious.  I feel that this new word accurately describes Jensen's drool appeal, don't you?  I SO love things I can describe as kick ass, and this definitely is!  I Like the Way You Move (2nd one down on the page) by Thandie 

Stargate: Atlantis


[personal profile] sadiane TOTALLY encouraged my Ronon lust by reccing this to me.  I would give her my firstborn for that, except that, well, my firstborn is 19 years old already.  And how the hell did that happen?  Anyhow, this is John/Ronon and Ronon/John in a gen way.  Which probably doesn't make much sense, but suffice it to say that it can be viewed through slash-colored glasses or not.  Red Moon (1st vid on the page) by [personal profile] sol_se
(Update - It can also be streamed here.)

Haven't seen BroYay, but the others sure are ace! Will check BroYay out asap.

And if you ever want questions about vidding answered, I probably know who to direct you to, if I can't answer them myself. (I vid, dunno if I've ever mentioned that) :)

Eek! Children are scary (even 19 year old children).

I tend to view everything through slash goggles, but I do adore the friendship vibe of John/Ronon (and the vid, which is love). [livejournal.com profile] sol_se had a very long conversation when I started watching the show about John/Ronon and the lack of pairingy goodness. I was all "hot like burning!" and was "but they are buddies!" Me:"but look right there, with the hitting with sticks and the beer in bedrooms and the follow him anywhere, and the buddies can be hot like burning". Her:"okay, you might have a point". And then there was "Outcast" and "Midway" ...

If people don't want to DL it, there's a streaming link on her Imeem Here

I'm in the process of learning to vid right now - SG-1's Sam Carter first, but I have notes for a happy Dean character vid afterwards. Also, notes for a S. 3 Dean vid to a song I still can't breathe when I listen to, almost 4 years later (Elliot Smith's "King's Crossing" - the song he recorded the day before he died, lyrics ) so that one likely won't happen.

I loved the Channel Hopping and the Way You Move. Oh, Jensen. He is just too pretty to be real!

Speaking of that one - did you ever find the song from that vid? I have it, if you still need it.

Oh look. Happy SPN vids, let me show you them!

I adore deirdre_c's three comedy vids:

Fit and You Know It (lighthearted S/D)
Things that Make You Go Hmmm (lighthearted S/D)

and Ode to a Bitchface!
