“To me the great hope is that now these little video recorders are around and people who normally wouldn’t make movies are going to be making them. And suddenly, one day some little fat girl in Ohio is going to be the new Mozart and make a beautiful film with her father’s camcorder and for once, the so-called professionalism about movies will be destroyed, forever, and it will really become an art form.”
When Francis Ford Coppola spoke those prophetic words in 1991, he had the vision to see where the proliferation of consumer-level video technology was going in the coming years. Now, millions have access to the keys to the filmmaking kingdom in their very own homes.
One thing he was not able to presage (along with his complete and utter descent into hackdom) was that this video revolution would not end up with a new Mozart, but rather, tons of homemade music videos for lousy songs. Case in point:
Now, this alone would warrant a post on its own. But- BUT - the video has a stunning 620,461 views and 1,489 comments (as of this writing). Let’s browse a few,shall we?
the kitty on 1:32 looks like its sad and waving goodbye….but this song is awsome and really cute kittens and cats
lol this vid was added on 9/11
ok…the song is awesome, but the video and the song together is a little too ironic…it’s almost like the person who put the cats to this song completely ignored what the song is about, which isn’t really that cool…

Uhhhh……..i’m married into the family of a former astronaut who founded this information with a handful of scientists and nasa personel. I’ll give you a hint. Apophis. The years 2027 and 2036 are involved. Please don’t ask me why no one has heard of this in the news. Don’t have time for that. Just think about how society would change.
yeah. the top scientist predict a Nuclear War in 2027. they say its gonna be the greatest nuke war ever. couse we found new wepons and put stuff like Red Mercury in em. wich makes em nucleur. put nuclure stuff in a nuclear bomb.wow! lets see how far we’ve come after that. p.s. i love this song!!!
I hate cats but that was flat out Killin. It was the longest cat video i’ve seen to date. That’s alot of cats. Don’t forget the lion in the mirror.
My favorite, though- the one that sums it up so perfectly-
some one likes cats
Indeed they do, sir. Indeed they do.

“they say its gonna be the greatest nuke war ever”
You got that? the greatest nuke war EVER.
That video is an excellent example of an inverted synergy, where the value of the whole is far less than the sum of its parts.
Not that either of the parts was particularly impressive, but I do think I could stomach the kittens if I muted the audio.
I dunno, I think it’s just that the value of the song negates the value of the kittens.
I remember reading HL Mencken talking about how his ideal society was artists making art for art’s sake, and critics whittling it down to what was vital and relevant-essentially elevating the role of the critic as a sort of filter.
I really hope he’s spinning in his grave because of Youtube. I wonder what his critical take would be on 15 year old boys in negligees dry humping piles of panties.
Re: Frowny
I’m obviously going to a different Youtube from you. Mine is still crap, but “15 year old boys in negligees?” What the hell?
I have got to have a link to that. I have a fourteen year old neice that needs to see it and get turned off boys for good.
Sadly, it’s gone now. I saw it about a year and a half ago, if I recall correctly. But I have to thank Something Awful for finding it while it was there.
