Yeah I know it's been a whole month since I last posted but due to my exciting life this is all I've got for you today. I know it's not much and pretty much pointless but you can at least take comfort in knowing that it took me several hours to make. Therefore I hope the 199 seconds required to watch it may seem at least partially justified.
The music in the clip is by Vanessa Mae, yes that very same Vanessa you met in my last post. The song is called Contradanza in case you are interested.
The video consists of movie still shots each lasting just under one second in the video. ( I tried to match the timing of the shots to the beat of the music but Windows movie maker doesn't provide quite that level of control so it is what it is.)
These are still shots from most of my favourite movies and many others that I consider well above average. I hope you recognize many of them. I would be very surprised if anyone could match every still with its movie as I'm pretty sure there are at least a few that none of you has ever seen. Maybe someone will prove me wrong. I hope so.
Maybe in the comments you could tell me how many of the photos you were able to match to a movie and we can see who gets the most. If anyone gets them all I promise to address you as "Master and Commander" all the rest of my days. (Yes that is the name of one of the films in the video, so one down, only 200 more to go.)
If you recognize a photo but can't quite place it and it really bugs you and renders you utterly unable to think about anything else and get on with your day then please feel free to ask me.
So here they are, 201 movies in 199 seconds and some great music as well.

First of all...very cool! It reminded me of this 30 second clip of cool sounds from songs i liked that I recorded back to back on a cassette once in high school...it took hours! I wish I could find that tape. Anyways...
I counted 108 that I recognized from the clips and from the list I think I have seen 130 or so. I was very pleased to see Galaxy Quest in there...very funny. Thanks Lorin.
