NO AUDIO! I found that the audio sync was off in these clips so I just removed the audio. I'll add music via an audio swap later. Sorry about that. I still feel the love for Gerard Butler and will have to make some HD videos for him now! :D
As the video title says, this is REAL HD, like Blu-Ray DVD, not standard quality DVD rips sized up to HD so they play a little clearer on YouTube. If you play this video at HD and fullscreen, you should see added HD detail. (Note there is a little bit of blocky artifacts in the video; I think that's present in the source HD file too. Overall the quality is still pretty great!) Note that I zoomed in on the clips to get rid of the letterbox bars. So in reality a little bit on the right and left side of the clips are cropped off.
VIDDERS: Here's info on how to get HD for your own fanvids.
I DO NOT condone or encourage downloading movies that you don't already own on DVD or Blu-Ray. But if you own the DVD/Blu-Ray and want to edit fanvids in HD, do a search for HD MKV files and download at your own risk! ;D
To find a particular show or movie in HD, do a search on Google. Type in the name of the movie or show and add the keywords "x264" and "720p" and see what comes up. Or, do a search for tutorials for ripping clips from your Blu-Ray disk.
Here's the tutorial with info on preparing HD for your video software:

This tutorial has info (and links to other tutorials) which show you how to prepare your clips in HD and edit in HD. Tutorials are for Mac and PC.
This tutorial gives you an intro to why you need to convert your HD downloads to another format for editing:

Good gravy- even in 360 - all I can see now - the picture quality is fantastic!! :) (not usually the case with most vids run in 360.)
Can't wait for the new tutorial! ;-)

@honeyphan2 OH YES! Isn't it exciting!?! I can hardly wait to make a video with this HD version!
I just have to add a few details to the tutorial and it should be good to go. In the meantime, you can do a search (nudge nudge wink wink) for an HD copy of this movie. I looked tonight on Google and a few seem to be floating around. Look for 720p with x264 in the file name and that should work.
