You know, I thought of this one because of all of the vids I have done, I hate it the most. It is the one I am afraid to look at. It is one of the first vids I ever did all by myself and predates the first Vividcon.
Since you asked me this question I decided to brave a glance through it. And I think I can answer my own questions. The opening is too slow. The bits of attempted humor at the beginning are not as funny as they should be. I think I may have been timing the bridge to a completely different song.
It seems to start out as teen-angst romance, get way way too dark, then turn camp with no warning whatsoever. The whole thing hinges on Angel smoking/john Lennon screaming but, that moment really doesn't work and if you don't buy the moment where Jody Foster decides she actually likes Dennis Hopper, you may as well not even watch the rest of the movie.
I am still interested to hear what people have to say, though. But, am starting to think that "be My Luck" would be a more productive choice because I haven't decided I hate it yet.
