Enchirito! Loved your intro!!!

That shot of Boone at the end cracked me up!

The painty effect was quite cool as well.

Asstard! I am so speechless! That was beautiful! Why don't we just give her the medal now people?

wow! that was verrry good! Until it Sleeps! Yes!

I noticed you only fit in 5 actor credits (considering the pace of the song, I understand why). But other than that, superb job!

I credited six... Plus the producers!

In the first draft I forgot to include Jin, Walt and Michael, so Charmax had to remind me, that all main actors had to appear and it wasn't just a question of the song pace... Most tv series have their regulars in the credits and recuring characters as 'Special guest' and I took the liberty to make my list of the characters I won't mind seeing in every episode...

Alright, now on to the other entries:

@Charmax: You already know how I feel about your credits... They we're the reason I decide not to watch the other entries, because they might dispirit me... Love yours, excellent song choice, brilliant editing and they just kick ass, mostly mine!

@Jake: I love the song and the blur, great scene selection and cool font... The video flows really smooth...

@Enchirito: The paint effect at the end is fantastic, it worked especially cool on the explosion, also the end made me laught out loud and the song and font is just excellent! And I love Sawyers head tilt on the beat... Made me also laugh!

@MoreLight: The music was really beautiful and dreamy, quite a contrast to the rest more fast paced entries I saw so far. I loved especially the way your text moved to the beat and similar to the original credits. Scene collection was also great!

@Whoever made a file named LostOpeningTitles_0002: Great music score, the way you picked up with the drama in the music and made it visible was great.

@Whoever made a file named cochise: Very cool green filter, the way it repeated itself during the vid was just excellent. I loved the scanlines and reversed scenes. Excellent work!

Oh and my vid is up now at http://digital-dreamers.net/wp/index.php?cat=7! Thanks Charmax! *hug*

You see that scowl, it means harm... And death and other pretty things, like torture, punishment and Tele tubbies!

Great work Astarte!!!
wow! ok so whoever make the top 3 must be really really amazing vidders!

I THINK what we've decided to do is have three videos that are winners, and two that get honorable mention. There have been too many good entries to try and just knock it down to three.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Astarte
Thanks for watching my submission! I really liked your solution to this contest and the division of the screen into 3 with 2 blurred sections on either side was very creative. I liked the effect it created. Technical merit too since I couldn't see any mistakes from a mechanical standpoint either.
