Here's the recs for the second half (part one is here)! Again, if you have the time, go watch them all, but if you need a place to start:

Kill a Vampire (Save Your Hood) [Vampires vs. the Bronx (2020)]
This vid is very well edited and the song choice is god-tier genius.

You are the Blood [La Reine Margot | Queen Margot (1994)]
This vid goes VERY HARD which is what fascinated me about it, but warning for gore.

New Rules [Baba is You (Video Game)]
I don't know this game, but it was satisfying to watch this and figure out how it worked as I was watching.

Summer in the City [Bombay Rose (2019)]
Love a vid to a classic song, and this source is beautiful.

Another One Bites the Dust [Atomic Blonde (2017)]
The editing in this is on point, great use of tracking shots in action scenes.

Satisfied [The Good Place (TV)]
If you have Tahani feelings, this is for you.

Like It's Dynamite [阴阳师 | Yīn Yáng Shī | The Yin-yang Master (Movies - Guo Jingming)]
This vid uses the movie's aesthetics very pleasingly, also there is SNAKE.

How Fucking Romantic [Much Ado About Nothing (2011)]
Not that I didn't like all the '93 Much Ado vids this year, but this is the production of my heart, and this song choice + editing is great.

try your best [Taskmaster (UK TV) RPF]
Look, I know, it's more Taskmaster, but this one is SAD. Also funny. Also just, you know, Taskmaster.

A Little Bit of Sunshine [Big Trouble in Little China (1986)]
This is delightful and has great action vidding.

Last Laugh [The Long Kiss Goodnight (1996)]
Was happy to see three (!) vids for this source this year, it was very hard to pick a favorite but this one worked best for me.

Can't Get Enough [Taskmaster (New Zealand TV)]
More Taskmaster, but this time in New Zealand!

This Fantasy World [Mythic Quest (TV)]
Cute DND lesbians!

Queen [Lil Nas X (Music Video)]
Lil Nas X being shiny!

Gloria [Bandits (1997)]
THIS ONE WAS FOR MEEE it's so good, I loved this movie so much as a kid (teenager), and this captured the vibe so well.

Rich Friends [기생충 | Parasite (2019)]
More Parasite! Showcasing the parts of the movie where the Kim family gets to have fun! (Also showcasing the murder.)

Octopus! [My Octopus Teacher (2020)]
It's an octopus! There's a second one for this source that's also very cute, it's a little sadder than this one, though. This first one is just happy.

Lung [The Company of Wolves]
This vid is WEIRD AF in all the best ways, warning for some creepy shit.

It's Gonna Be Me, Turn the Lights Off, Hell And You [What We Do in the Shadows (TV)]
There were three WWDITS vids and they're all great in different ways!

Amina Hussein and the no good, very bad Muslim punk band [We Are Lady Parts (TV)]
What it says on the tin! This is a song compilation giving insight into the different characters and now I want to watch the show even more.

Too Darn Hot [In The Heights (2021)]
This does a lot with very little footage.

Go High, Go Low [Lil Nas X (Music Video)]
Lil Nas X being snarky on Twitter.

Aerials [Babylon 5]
This vid is very metal and epic. Don't think I've really seen System of a Down vidded before!

Edge of Midnight [Stevie Nicks (Musician) RPF]
Very impressive RPF clip sourcing and editing in this.

Thank you to the vidders, their betas, their cheerleaders, the mods, and everyone who worked on tech on the challenge as well as the watchalong. Festivids! \o/

Festivids reveal happened! We watched the first 70 (!) vids in the watchalong server yesterday, so here's my first load of recs. No shade on the other vids, which were also all amazing, but since there are 149 vids in the collection, this might help with having somewhere to start.

Losing Gravity [Threesome (1994)]
Cute 90s threesome poly rel!

I Knew You Were Trouble [Miss Sherlock (TV)]
Excellent messed up delightful Miss Sherlock vid, poor Wato, poor Sherlock.

Short Skirt Long Jacket [What's Up Doc? (1972)]
Zany 70s slapstick fun vidded to one of my favorite songs ever.

Made of Stone [Rūrangi (2020)]
Sad queers being sad; I'm told that the movie has a happy ending, the vid also ends on an uplifting note.

Money (Makes the World Go Around) [Muppet Treasure Island (1996)]
Muppets, I dunno, I loved it but it's muppets so ymmv.

Me and Bernstein down by the schoolyard [All the President's Men (1976)]
THIS WAS A GIFT FOR MEEEEE AND IT'S SO GOOD, I love these journalist bros.

At Last [Salt Fat Acid Heat (TV)]
Food porn.

How Death Comes [The Green Knight (2021)]
Very trippy and atmospheric Green Knight vid, watch Dev Patel behead a tree.

All Star [Taskmaster (UK TV) RPF]
Obligatory Taskmaster vid #1

Grace Kelly [Catch Me If You Can (2002)]
Leo scamming Tom Hanks by being many people and just wanting someone to tell him he's doing a good job! Also amazing animated intro.

I'm An Animal [Various Vet Reality Shows]
Many! Cute! Animals!

Sugar Town [Diner (2019)]
Very weird vid but nice aesthetics, movie is apparently also highly weird.

Don't Worry Be Randall [Infinity Train (Cartoon)]
This one (as with many of these) I don't know the source, but THE VIDDER MADE THE WATER BLOB LIP SYNC THE LYRICS

Song Spirit [Kisima Ingitchuna | Never Alone]
No idea what the source is (apart from "it's a video game and the people who make it") but it's SO BEAUTIFUL, please watch this.

The Climb [Moana (2016)]
Obligatory Moana feels

Birdhouse in Your Soul [The Personal History of David Copperfield (2019)]
THIS ONE IS ALSO FOR MEEEE and it's great, it made me relive all my movie feelings.

Work Song [기생충 | Parasite (2019)]
Very effective use of this song.

A Shot in the Dark [Only Murders in the Building (TV)]
This is apparently an apartment building of New Yorkers solving crime together? Or something? I want to watch it, the vid is great, they seem like chaos gremlins.

Chandelier [Phantom of the Opera (Synetic Theater 2020)]
Lesbian Phantom of the Opera with a lady phantom!

People Like Us [We Are Lady Parts (TV)]
Amazing anthem vid for this show that I haven't watched yet but really need to watch.

Don't Stop Me Now [Taskmaster (UK TV)]
Obligatory Taskmaster vid #2

No Place Like Home [Multifandom]
Rural queers! Gays on a farm!

Milkshake [Gunpowder Milkshake (2021)]
Karen Gillan and Michelle Yeoh (and others) kicking ass in a highly stylized way.

Also there are THREE LOST TOMB REUNION vids that you should all go and watch! Tomb gremlins!!

Dear Festividder,

Festivids! It's my first time, so I'm nervous -- about making a vid for a challenge, but also about writing prompts for vids! I've never done it before; all the prompting I've done in the past was for fic. I've done my best, but if the stuff under the cut makes no sense to you and doesn't give you any ideas, please ignore it and just make whatever you feel like making. I would much rather watch something that you enjoyed making than something you forced yourself to put together without feeling it. <3

Good luck with your vid, and thank you for vidding for me! I look forward to watching it. :D
