Super Mario World with Super Mario Bros. music? You're mixing up your games... :)
So are you :D.
That's a mashup of Mario All Stars graphics with a little bit of World in there. Ah, All Stars, now there was a class act...
It was a Mario mashup, but it was entertaining. :)
Fucking copyright bitches NBC you suck!
I wanted too see the clip !!!
Piracy is the reason YouTube used to not suck. Damn international copyright laws. :cuss:
Luckily, there are enough obscure YouTube knockoffs to host clips like this. :)
I didn't even think this counted. It was like 30 seconds and I mean, it was up there for a while. Heck an official news site had it in there, it's where I saw it. What I can't trust them to be legal?
Exactly. It's just copyright holders abusing their privelege to have videos removed from YouTube. Sometimes I think they only do it because they can. It's not like AMVs using clips from their shows will hurt their ratings or DVD sales (if anything, it's a free advertisement, so it should boost their revenue), but nevertheless, they'll demand anything containing even a second of their material be taken down and YouTube will cave in instantly. Full episodes or movies, I can understand, but they've taken it a bit far.
Animated Music Video. In other words, when someone takes clips from a show they like and adds a song they like and think fits the mood, usually some crap like Linkin Park or Evanescence, but occasionally there are good ones out there. Regardless of quality, though, I just think it's a little ridiculous that copyright holders would go out of their way to remove videos like that as if it somehow hurts their shows' television ratings or DVD sales. I can understand them wanting to remove full episodes, but they'll remove anything containing a 3-second silent animated clip from one of their shows.
I'm sorry but that sounds.... um is there a word that doesn't give that idea the respect that "stupid" would? Also, animated? I assume this means it's only done for cartoons? Anyway, it seems pretty much a waste of effort when they could just use the music the show's creators thought fit the mood, gee how about that!
Eh, some of them are interesting to watch, a few creative ideas here and there, but yeah, it's mostly just pointless. "If Activision or Microsoft intended for Greenday to be the soundtrack to Call of Duty, they would have used it instead of spending millions of dollars recording custom sound effects and music for these games" (Maddox).
I suppose it's no big loss to anyone that these videos are being taken down, but at the same time, I don't feel these videos are really hurting the copyright holders, whether they fall under the category of copyright infringement or not. But this is getting a bit off topic: the above video was simply a small clip from a show, not an entire episode, yet copyright holders felt the need to have it taken down because it somehow threatens their revenue, I guess.

Most of the time they seem to be done to anime, really. Sometimes other stuff. And yeah, usually they aren't very interesting... occasionally one is, though.
