jetpack_monkey: (Shaun of the Dead  - Yawn)
I was skeptical, Festividder, I'm not gonna lie. Shaun of the Dead is a film I capital-L LOVE and not in a way that makes me want to watch all the vids -- quite the opposite. And I was not sure of the song choice.

But. But. But.

Oh. My. God.

First of all, you just fucking WON me with the intercutting on one of my favorite aspects of the film, the way that it called back to itself. And I'm like, okay, I want to see where this is going.

And it's like, as I am being swept up in the fact that you enjoyed and brought attention to the cleverness of the film, there's lyrics and they are the film. The film is the song, the song the film. And it's cute and it's funny and it's super-appropriate and I am so digging it.

And then, on top of *that*, building so imperceptibly that I do not even notice it as first, there is serious emotionality. Hardcore, amazing feels. With Shaun's mother, with Ed, with Liz (I had so many unexpected Liz feels here).

You rock Festividder. You. Rock.

(icon appropriate to fandom but not to my feelings -- there was nothing yawn-worthy here)
