Random vid giggles

eruthrosSo when I talked about sex vids, two of the three were constructed-reality to "Closer" by NIN, yes? In two different fandoms?
Well, fairly recently I spotted another "Closer" vid. A Smallville constructed-reality, making advantageous use of RedK!Clark footage.
This makes me giggly.
It's not a tremendously good vid, really -- I mean, it's got good points an' all, but I won't be keeping it. The vidder, Mkitty3, chose to do a LOT of washed-out black-and-white in the middle, and whatever program she used to do that made it very jerky and uneven in appearance. And the sound seems a little flat, like the original mp3 wasn't balanced well.
Still, some neat things. I like the fast-paced clip sequences at the end, although the last notes of the song aren't accompanied by clips. And she picked some really really fabulous RedK!Clark facial expressions -- that "bring it on" in the bar and all that.
Mostly, though, I'm less amused by the vid-as-vid than by the vid-as-concept -- I mean! I'm tempted to keep it just to be three for three.
