    Every week, I scour the video portal's latest submissions and pick my top five favorites. Just because you don't make it into the top five does not mean that you're video wasn't good. We just have so many good videos that they're hard to choose from!

    Wait just a minute. This isn't Deathspank, well I'm his substitute for time he can't make it. Here's the top five for this week.

    This Week's Winner: angelsinflight14 | View Video
    Song: In Like a Lion (Always Winter) by Reliant K

    A very good emotional video, great story, relation to the lyrics and good use of glow I must say. A great example of a very good video that isn't action based. Great job, very original.

    Song: What I've Done by Linkin Park

    First of all very nice intro. I'm not really a a Linkin Park AMV fan, but this was an example of a good one, even though the overuse of the band annoys me, but to be fair I didn't use my dislike for LP AMV's affect my choice, you made a very good video. Well done.

    Song: His World by Zebrahead

    Nice to see the a more original band, some nice effects, it was quite an entertaining, though not the best on a technical front, it was very enjoyable and that counts for quite a bit.

    Song: Over my Head by The Fray

    Another good emotional video, the simple approach to effects was great for that sort of video, though a few more glows or slow flashes would of been nice, but beyond that it had a nice connection to the song. And overall enjoyable.

    Song: No Reason by Sum 41

    Another entertaining videos, and I must say for a WMM video it was very good, you used the software well, congrats.


    But that's not all, I would like to add some special mentions, here are 2 videos that didn't make the list but deserve a mention to show appreciation for the effort they put into their videos.

    Song: How to Save a Life by The Fray

    This one gets a mention for it's story, though some of the scene/timing options I don't agree with, it was neither the less a nice effort

    Song: Don't be Late for Christmas by The Chipmunks

    This ones gets a mention for it's sheer originality, congrats on it's uniqueness.

    Hope you enjoy them all, and keep submitting! Maybe your video will show up here next Monday!

    I can't believe the 2nd place winner has only made three videos. I'm on my like, 45th and I'm not half that good.

    Great choices, DA! Maybe you should take over the top five. >.> I know you'd pick the best for the top and not just your favorites. -_-

    Thanks, but give Deathspank a bit more credit than that, technically my picks are my favourites, i find the good AMV's are my favourites. =P

    I tend to agree with DS's choices most of the time.

    Who could blame you? None of us would envy having to watch EVERY vid in the portal to decide which five are the best.

    Wow, nice AMVs...although that fifth one...that just can't be made with the WMM...some of the effects are impossible...unless it's downloaded...anyway, everyone did an awesome job. :)

    And it's kind of you to take Deathspank's place while he can't make it, Dark Android! :)​

    Love your choices, all were awesome.
    I like how you put the reasons why you chose them and stuff, too.
    I'm agreeing with the person who said it first that it should be done every week.

    Great picks, DA.

    The Alvin and the Chipmunks one made me laugh.

    And P-will didn't upload any videos this week, so that's why he wasn't in.

    He's not ALWAYS in either.

    He's just good at it.

    Anyway, the videos are all great.

    Nice job.
