The patchwork girl has come the cinch the deal...

Huh.

Anyone out there remember that awesome miniseries The 10th Kingdom? About the father and daughter who get stuck in fairy-tale land and have to save the day and all that good stuff?

*hums* For some reason I wanna vid it to Scissor Sisters' "Return to Oz". Ya know, He said, is this the return to Oz? The grass is dead, the gold is brown, and the sky has claws. There's a wind-up man walking 'round and 'round what once was Emerald City is now a crystal town. It really captures the tone of the show, that whole... yes, life was once beautiful and grand and Happily Ever After, but under the legends is the dark side of the magic. (Do return to Oz! We thank the world with smiles and clenching jaws.)

Just a thought. Hell, I have the DVDs but not the actual footage to rip it (though I think I could find some intructions on how to).

Basically, my point is to ask my FList: If I made a fanvid of The 10th Kingdom, would anyone watch it?

That is my favourite SS song in the whole world. Unfortunately I've never even heard of 10th Kingdom ))))))):

It's a very lovely song that makes me want to see the movie Return to Oz. Oh, it is so lovely and sad. *sways to beat*

I think it was US only. It was a really cool miniseries that turned a bunch of fairytales on their head. If you ever get the chance, you should try to catch it.

I SO WOULD!

When 10th Kingdom was shown, I loved it so much I convinced mom to buy the promotional offer of the soundtrack, VHS tapes and book. I'm looking at the tapes right now on my shelf. I'd totally love to get the dvd.

You must make music vid. Cause that'd be so awesome.

Now I totally wanna watch 10th kingdom. or buy the dvds so that my 3 VHS tapes don't get ruined. They're pretty old.

I forgot there was a book. Was it any good?

I'll make one if there are enough people interested and if I can figure out how to rip the video...

I'll watch almost any vid, so it doesn't really matter that I've never heard of 10th Kingdom; I'd still happily give it a shot.

*looking forward to it*

*raises eyebrow* Um, I'm pretty sure I saw 10th Kingdom on your fandom filter... *checks* Apparently not. *is going insane?*

I'm definately considering it now, but I have to figure out how to rip video first.

I *loved* 10th Kingdom. Thought the guy who played Wolf was really hot. And that the ending was kinda stupid...
I totally bought the whole promo package.
The book was basically a novelization... so I don't think it added anything.

Another person interested. Hm. I may have to actually do this.

*goes to investigate DVD ripping*

You know I watch pretty much any vid you post. I still have that "Numb3rs" one saved on my desktop, and I've never even SEEN Numb3rs. You just have bitchin' taste in music.

*laughs* That's pretty bloody awesome! *flattered liek whoa* If you want, I can quickly YSI the song I'm talking about vidding. (Hell, I'm tempted to send you all the Scissor Sisters I have. Would you be interested?)

[identity profile] silver11016.livejournal.com 2007-01-14 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Interested? Woman, if you uploaded all your Scissor Sisters, you're going to get glomped like whoa. You would also be getting the Keith/Anderson fic I started on my math notes dedicated to you. (I really hope Prof. Nguyen doesn't collect the notes because he's going to be terrified.)

PS- I've been playing with Gimp! There are Andy/Keith colorbars in our future. I started making one in English class the other day.

Okay, just YSIed you "Return to Oz", check your Yahoo mail. What SS songs do you have in all- I don't want to send you repeats.

Oooh, the GIMP! Gotta love it. Make sure you play with the brightness and contrast. Oh, and duplicate layers, then futz with the layer filters and opacity and *rambles on*
