AMV Spotlight of the Week

This weeks spotlight is on YouTuber devotfeige.  This individual takes the song “Moves Like Jagger” performed by Maroon 5, featuring Christina Aguilera and edits in scenes from the new Sherlock series on BBC.  “Moves Like Jagger” has been an infectious song since it first came out, but marrying it to Sherlock you would not think it would work.  For some reason it does.  Each time I watch this AMV I enjoy it.  It helps that I like the song and the new Sherlock.  The editing together of the scenes is done well and images are used that pretty well match the song lyrics.  Fun all the way around, great job devotfeige.  You can check out the AMV on YouTube under “Sherlock: Moves Like Jagger” and it is also below:

AMV Spotlight of the Week

This weeks AMV Spotlight is on YouTuber xthehuntressx.  Xthehuntressx takes the song “Fighter” performed by Christina Aguilera and edits it around scenes from Justice League.  These cut scenes are very clean and crisp, which makes the AMV so much nicer to view.  At one point I began to wonder if xthehuntressx used Black Canary to emulate Ms. Aguilera, when Black Canary is using her sonic scream I just pictured Aguilera hit her high notes.  The one fault I have for the AMV is that it has side borders. If the video image would have fit the YouTube screen it would have been more attractive. One of the great things about this video is that you get to see a verity of DC heroes.  Some you will know and others that are less known unless you read DC Comics.  Great job xthehuntressx.  Thanks to YouTube for the video and you can find it on their site or check it out below:
