HERO…
Nobody’s good enough to call themselves a hero. Actually the people who actually do, they are the least hero-ish of us all. We all fantasize though, I myself walk my everyday path and keep imagining what would I do in a dangerous situation… Sucks to know you can only imagine so much, and also, would we all do the right thing given the choice to?
I like to think I would risk my life to save another being, but I doubt if I would…
Come on guys, don’t tell me you’ve never seen a real good looking girl across the street and imagined how sweet would it be if some “villain” suddenly attacked her, and you would become her hero in shinning armor. Blood only makes it sweeter, just go figure.
What’s actually more troubling than this is that, being a true life hero is much easier than all that…
I’ve had many heros come and go, in and out of my life. Sometimes a shoulder to cry on, sometimes the cheer you need to go the extra mile. I could go on and on… They’re out there, and believe it or not, I’m sure all of us zoners have our little share of fans around, for sometimes the most unexpected action can create the biggest, most accurate reaction in somebody else’s mind. I hope you guys are following. What I’m trying to say is that, for example, while most of the time he’s a jackass and a cocky pain in the butt, my brother usually has my back in the toughest situations. I hesitate to write this words, but in those rare occasions he becomes a hero. Not because he’s saving my life, but because he’s motivating me to keep trying to save it myself. We’re all heros, I believe.
Moving on to another topic, but keeping the title of this blog in mind, THE CHRIS HERO INVITATIONAL may just be the thing the new MV Zone needed to get off the ground and into the sky. I’ve watched most videos, as I haven’t been home. I was shocked to read about Shocker333 not making it, yet I fully understand him, he has so much on his hands right now, his wrestling, school and I know many many other things… I don’t know Shocker that well but I just wish him the best nonetheless and hope that his Chris Hero MV is gonna come up on the boards even if it’s not for the comp.
I was surprised by some of the autors, as some of the are relatively new to our community, but hey, hell of an entrance you guys made. Claymore is one of them, he’s quickly establishing his style here in our boards, the least likely songs for MV’s, he works with them and it’s doing wonders in my brain. I’m buying your work my man, keep at it. I’d have to say guys like you and Nelson had quite the competition, but you didn’t dissapoint. My very good friend PNB put out another one of his awesome videos, and his expertise in effects is for my taste the icing on the cake for each of his productions.
Guys like th3rd, H69E and SSP, I don’t need to say anything, those are videos that belong in DVDs, and especially you three I reckon as the top MV Makers in our family right now. A lot come close, but you guys keep constant, and you don’t lose a beat, always releasing new stuff, trying new stuff and developing huge ideas to improve you video. The song in th3rd’s video though, I cannot overlook it man, and that made the whole MV kinda grey. Still, you keep producing and that’s always well appreciated by us. By me at least. I took this time to give you guys’ feedback, hoping to lead by example and urging everybody to do the same.
Come on you guys, MV’s are not easy. Feedback is. And that’s all our artists ask for. So, do the right thing.
Well, that’s it for this edition of The ST’s Stories, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I do writing it. Thanks all for your time and see you soon.
MV Recommendation: I’m currently digging Claymore’s Chikara video, entitled MANY. It’s on the forum, go get it. NOW!
Music Reommendation: Jimmy Eat World’s Here It Goes, from their record “Chase This Light”
