Song: Original song by stopitsgingertime (YT) and The French Mistake by Mel Brooks (from the film Blazing Saddles).
Category: Episode Recap (6.15) & poooosssibly meta at the very end
Length: 3.07
Size: 33.5mb
Summary: It's a better, meta episode...
Sendspace | You Tube
Special tomaichan808 for the feedback. And to stopitsgingertime for the use of her song.
Notes:
There's no denying that the stuff fans do because of this show blows me away. When I heard this song recently I loved that someone would write a song about the episode. My muse bashed me over the head and I needed to had visuals to the words.
On top of that, I was chatting with the lovelyel1ie and was reminded of the song "The French Mistake" which appears at the end of Blazing Saddles. There's a twofold meaning in using that as the title to the episode - the film Blazing Saddles ends by breaking (well, shattering) the 4th wall and apparently the term "French Mistake" can mean "When an otherwise straight male is persuaded to, or on a whim in the heat of the moment, engages in a homosexual act of which he later regrets and is ashamed. (from here). It's been suggested that the reason Jared and Jensen weren't talking in this episode is because of this. (which I kinda love...)
Anyway... the little bit at the end is just me playing a little with this idea. Though somewhat subtly.
No money made but comments are gratefully accepted. :)

Date: 2011-03-06 02:45 am (UTC)First and most importantly... YAY! LONG WEEKEND. I so need that. It's a friggin' 12 week term! How could they do that to us!?!
And you know, fandom may be all sorts of crazy at times but mostly it's full of awesome. I haven't ever made a vid to an original song so it was nice to do something different.
Glad you liked it.
ENJOY the weekend.

Date: 2011-03-06 02:51 am (UTC)I prefer the 4th wall firmly in place, this ep made me somewhat uncomfortable, but I appreciated the hell out of it. Clever and extremely funny.
If you do watch it, let me know what you think.
And you mentioned another SPN vid? Be sure to keep me informed. I'm not a huge Dr Who fan I have to say. I mean, I don't mind it but I don't fall over it. Which is probably just as well with all the falling over I do on this show.

I hadn't realized that! Ha, that would be funny.
Re: The French Mistake
Date: 2011-03-06 03:59 am (UTC)Exactly! You can see right through me. :) I really have other vid projects to be doing right now but I knew I could do this pretty quickly because it basically tells me which scenes to use. Wish other songs could be that easy. :)
And it was
I like that the J2 had an "encounter" though. Kinda makes it canon (in some strange way...)

I hope you're ok. *HEFFA HUGS* and thanks so much for dropping by.
More *smishes* because I can't have you having a bad time. That's just not right.

You know I'd never considered that but heck, I'll roll with it! ;D Not like the show hasn't nodded towards the fandom before...

Funny how much joy has come out of an episode you don't really like because of the missing fourth wall. *g*

Date: 2011-03-06 11:07 am (UTC)I didn't twig to the Js and their "french mistake".. it makes sense when you think about it. :)
Hee!! And I know.... I won't deny that ep made me uncomfortable. Still does. But I can't deny that it was clever and funny and original. So yeah, had to play with it. :)
Thanks sweetie.

Date: 2011-03-06 09:12 am (UTC)The original song is really great! I am constantly amazed by the talent in the SPN fandom.
The Blazing Saddles song at the end just makes it perfect, great job!

Date: 2011-03-06 07:21 pm (UTC)Sadly I can't see the video—the 4Shared link doesn't work and nothing is loading either here or on your YouTube destination. I just got another YT video to play so I don't think it's the site. And another vidder just coached me into figuring out that I needed to turn off Greasemonkey to see her vid, but that doesn't help with this one. Sorry I can't watch it. :(

Date: 2011-03-07 01:16 am (UTC)Sorry about the 4shared link. No idea what the problem is. It's been downloaded a few times and now... nothing.
Um.. the YT link seems ok though. Well, for me. So, I'm not sure what to do about that on. :(
Here's a sendspace link:

Thanks for letting me know about the links. I hope you enjoy it. :)

Date: 2011-03-06 07:38 pm (UTC)First 4shared had maintenance and then it told me that the link doesn't work (or something of that line)...
Any chance of you "repairing" it or sending it to me? Alexes@gmx.net
Thank you!

Date: 2011-03-07 01:18 am (UTC)I have no idea what's wrong with the 4shared link. It was working and now it's not.. weird.
Here's a sendspace link instead. If you have any problems just let me know. :)
I hope you enjoy it. :)
