I totally agree with FatElvis007! lol. Love the song. Love the vid. (Awesome editing!!) Love Lex. Love MR! Aah, so amazing!! Lex is definitely the best character on that show!!
OMG!!! I saw this video ages ago! Ha! I found it again because I was in the mood for Queen. I missed this video! It's so funny! I loled for most of it!
Excellent tribute... Lex Luthor is my favorite villain in all comics, books, and films, and Rhapsody is one of my alltime favorite songs, you did both justice with this awesome and superbly edited video. Great great work.
I like both his and Kevin Spacey's, though in different ways and for different reasons. I think it's funny, though, the kind of teasing relationship Lex has given those two, though. I mean, Kevin calling MR "the former Lex Luthor," and MR responding that he played Lex before he got "fat and ugly." Priceless! If you can't joke and tease about such things rather than be rivals over the matter, that'd be sad. Anyway. I think they both are great. :) But MR plays definitely the most identifiable Lex.
Love this video. Did not know that Michael was so funny until I watched the 6 videos of Dragon Con 08. He and James Marsters are just so funny, kept the room in an uproar.
I have all of SV but have not watched the commentaries, will have to do that. I got mad when James was not on one season and got away from it. Will go back and watch, that will get me away from SPIKE on Buffy and Angel, but I will force myself.haha
amazing, powerful vid. the part where the lyrics go "let him go, let him go" & it shows lex trying to escape from ppl grabbing him - that was pretty funny
I especially love the editing during the beginning when the song says "escape from reality" and Lex closes the door, the way the drums and the cymbals (I think :p) go in perfect sync with the Nemesis bomb, and the whole "Let me go, will not let you go" set to Lex's frantic piano playing. That's from Spell right?
A really fun video, I could definitely watch this over and over again. :) Great job!
It took quite a bit of tinkering to get that "escape from reality" bit. Reversing the scene seemed more appropriate since it's supposed to indicate no escape.
I was wondering how I could visually depict the Devil/Hell waiting to get Lex when I remembered the Nemesis scene.
The piano scenes are indeed from Spell. Even though the lyrics intend to convey that he wants to die, I just had to lighten it a bit and not take it so literally since the first part is so sad and slow.
This totally captures all the best Lex moments on the show, and set to such a fitting song too. :) It goes so smoothly from the broken Lex scenes, then the whole Mamma-Mia goofiness (I laughed out loud during that part) and seguing into the wonderfully evil Lex stuff.
This is the hardest and longest I've worked on a video thus far. The song has some goofy bits in it, so I figured why not put some goofy scenes in there and as you pointed out, they make for a nice segue into the more serious parts.
Thanks for leaving such detailed and wonderful feedback. I can always count on you. :)
OMG, I had been thinking of making a Lex vid to this song for this longest time, but I don't think I could have done it nearly as well as you. It was wonderfully edited. I loved that you included clips of Lex playing piano during the musical interlude.
I was surprised that I couldn't find a Lex video to this song actually. Don't let this video stop you from making one of your own. Different interpretations are always fun.
I couldn't not use Lex on the piano. It's so much a part of his character. It just so happened that the song has some perfect spots where I could use those scenes.
Great vid! I love the song, and was very curious how you were going to handle all the change ups in tempo, but you did so marvelously. A really great choice for Lex's character. Very creative and wonderful editing. :)
What wonderful feedback, ferdalump. It means a lot to me. The changes in tempo were quite a challenge indeed. I usually don't do fast tempo songs, so this was a new deal. I heard the song for the first time after a very long time and the minute I heard it I could see it being perfect for a Lex video. Once again, thanks for the feedback. :)
My dear, i propose challenge, I see your is fan of Chloe and Spike, I'am too, for this, because your make one video editing about shipp Chloe + Spike?
I love that song and I think it will work. It will be a while though until I can get around to making that video because of holidays and what have you.
excelente video felicitaciones!

Given the tragedy that SV has become, it's best MR got away when it he did, I think. He's my favourite Lex too.
