So what?

People are running away from Russia, but they only make it as far as the Urals to see the mountains from last year's contest... +test for authenticity

sorry, Kosha, I'm not a fan of "Doctor Who," so I can't judge.

I knew what I was getting into, lol.

As always, a good idea comes too late; I should have posted the opening of some pornographic cartoon. Well, and it's far from the best, the contest is still garbage. If I had known so many people would participate, I would have just ignored it.

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' — 5. The Doctor has a serious conversation with some unknown thing; it's probably cool if you're a fan.
Spider-Man 3 Dance Scene with "Realistic" Audio - (No Music) — 5. What's the point of having no music? It's definitely more fun with it.
Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 — 6. Overall, it's not my thing, but it's at least somewhat interesting.
Titanic with a Cat — 9. This is funny. And there's also this version.
Моложе я не стал — 5. I didn't like the unclear voice, but the animation is generally cool.
Ycare - Sors (Clip officiel) — 5. The clip is just a clip; the guy walks and sings, someone runs somewhere, and that's basically it.
Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol – Underwater — 5. It doesn't seem to last long, but it gets boring towards the end.
My Ordinary Life-The Living Tombstone — a colorful cartoon with plenty of action and a good composition; I like it.
風真いろは作ってみた — 7. Can it do five? Ten?
Little Dark Age - American Cinema — 2. It's a repeat of the song from the last music contest, and the movie clips were similar.

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' - 3. In my opinion, this is the worst incarnation of the Doctor out of all the ones I've seen, starting with his appearance, continuing with his mannerisms, and ending with the overall atmosphere of the plots. When I first saw this scene, it was okay, but after getting to know it, I can't rewatch it without cringing.
basically
🤓

Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 - 4. Honestly, I didn't understand anything, but I'll give them a plus for the effort.
Titanic with a Cat - 5. Funny, is that really how it was in the movie? I haven't watched it.
Моложе я не стал - 4. I don't like this author's style of drawing; we already have a crappy reality, but in her drawings, it looks even crappier. I understand that this is the intention, but I don't think it's a good idea to exacerbate the bleak reality.
Ycare - Sors (Clip officiel) - 2. The clip, the lisp, the persimmon seller from the market. If it weren't for the scenery and ten seconds of the brunette, there would be nothing to watch.
There's also no ending, despite the build-up.
Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol - Underwater - 2. The clip, the atmosphere is slightly better than the previous one, but it's only good for one frame; it can't be rated higher.
My Ordinary Life-The Living Tombstone - 3. The clip, it's crazy, but at least I found out where the sample with the flute was stolen from.
Kazama Iroha animation - 5. Funny.
Little Dark Age - American Cinema - 4. The clip, this song has already been featured, and I haven't even watched the movies.

I'm not in a good mood today.

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' - 4 life-affirming
Spider-Man 3 Dance Scene with "Realistic" Audio - (No Music) - 6 quietly dance-like
Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 - personally recommended
Titanic with a Cat - 7 cat-titanic
I haven't gotten any younger - 6 philosophical, hilarious
Ycare - Sors (Clip officiel) - 9 chanson, fast-paced
Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol - Underwater  - 4 American, lunar
My Ordinary Life-The Living Tombstone - 7 African, outrageous
Kazama Iroha animation - 8 samurai, kawaii
Little Dark Age - American Cinema - 7 Hollywood, epic

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' I haven't watched any part of any episode. But in principle, the scene is self-contained, with clear text, and it's full of pathos, which I like. So, 7/10. Spider-Man 3 Dance Scene with "Realistic" Audio - (No Music) Again, a random scene from a movie, which I haven't watched. Apparently, it's supposed to be very funny or impressive for those who have watched it. But to me, it's just complete nonsense. Some guy is walking down the street, sighing and doing a little dance. 2/10. Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 Well, this is 9/10, it's excellent. There's no point in being stingy; it's a magnificent work. If I liked the animation style, I would have given it a 10. Titanic with a Cat Yeah, this is also for those who have watched Titanic. I haven't watched it, so I can't fully appreciate the humor, but the cat is okay. 3/10. I haven't gotten any younger. Too depressing. Perhaps someone considers this to be cool, modern art and socially relevant, but I don't admire such art. On the contrary, I am saddened by the approach where, in order to get a good grade at the institute, the teacher requires that it be drawn poorly. 1/10. Ycare - Sors (Clip officiel) Okay. It won't go into my playlist, but it's a pleasant song. There was some intrigue; are they running towards each other, or is each one running on their own? Again, the running creates a dynamic, the girls are beautiful, and the singer is very colorful. I watched it to the end without any problems; I didn't feel the need to skip ahead. 7/10. Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol - Underwater Many people can dance well in this style, and each one comes up with something of their own, their own dynamics and movements. But this guy seems to be swimming; he moves so smoothly. I shared it because he's not very popular, judging by the number of views. My Ordinary Life-The Living Tombstone Everything is very cool, except for the animation style, which I didn't like. But towards the end, I realized what it reminded me of. Probably, it's just an association based on the voice processing, but still. Perhaps I won't say what exactly it reminded me of, because there's a chance I might send it in next year. 8/10. 風真いろは作ってみた (I made Kazema Iroha) Well, "yes," but this format doesn't look as good as a short film or a music video. 6/10. Little Dark Age - American Cinema A Clockwork Orange, Terminator 2, Men in Black. That's it. Although, I'm not even sure if I watched these movies in their entirety. The compilation itself is nothing special. 3/10

It's immediately obvious who watches the video in its entirety, and who doesn't...

There's no ending either, despite the buildup.

just like in life.

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' - 5 While watching, I remembered what I actually wanted to submit for this contest. (No, it's not a clip from Doctor Strange 2

In my opinion, the worst incarnation of the Doctor of all that I've seen.

Have you seen House of the Dragon?

Spider-Man 3 Dance Scene with "Realistic" Audio - (No Music) - 6 I understood the point, because in the movie there was music, but in reality, it would look exactly like it's shown here. And it sometimes looks that way when you're wearing headphones or you have schizophrenia. Thumbs up for that.

Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 - 6 At first, I thought it would be a cartoon about the characters from Ples. And they would have some kind of anime-style voice acting or something similar. They should add some kind of star magic to the expansion pack, by the way.

Titanic with a Cat - 7 This is me, if I went on a trip with my cat. I think they even showed a video about it on some news channel. And the song is pretty good.

I haven't gotten any younger. 3 Why didn't Lock mention the lisp in the minuses here? Double standards. And they butchered Radiohead, even though there's a normal piano version. And is the imitation of Brodsky intentional, or do many people read poetry in that style? (I'm not talking about disability). Anyway, someone turned 30, I get it.

Ycare - Sors (Clip officiel) - After the previous depressing video, the contrast is strong, of course. A fun and upbeat video should be put at the beginning of the list, because after the previous videos, you can already get sad and feel not the best mood (not in this case, but in general in such a contest). And I thought they liked mountains and hills here. It's a pity for the redhead, she ran to Kazakhstan. But in general, the point is that if you want, you can achieve your goal you can run at any time of the year, so those who blame winter for not running at this time of year are losers.

Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol - Underwater - 4 It reminded me of the new Rüfüs Du Sol video, where black people are dancing and not only. They are more jerky in that one. But in general, I don't like dancing. What do dancers do after 40?

My Ordinary Life-The Living Tombstone - 5 I think every year someone submits a video where someone is driving a car. 🤔 The vocals could have been better.

風真いろは作ってみた - 6 In Zelda, there's a challenge to quickly chop bamboo.

Little Dark Age - American Cinema - 5 I've seen some of them. At the beginning, there wasn't a single black person, except for the werewolf.

In general, nothing really bothered me, so it's pretty good. Maybe because I listened to Rüfüs Du Sol while watching the videos.

I absolutely love this scene and consider it very iconic and important for the Doctor. For once, he used his reputation, and it was about time. And it's beautifully staged.
However, the Moffat era in general, and the Eleventh Doctor in particular, didn't immediately appeal to me, so it's partly a matter of taste.

I'm all for a concept like this and I've given it a few extra points.

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' - 5
I didn't understand anything.
Spider-Man 3 Dance Scene with "Realistic" Audio - (No Music) - 5
That's me when I was 16.
Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 - 5
Did they execute the girlfriend afterwards?
Titanic with a Cat - 5
That cat is fine too.

The clip is probably about the rising prices of fuel.
Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol - Underwater - 5
It's cool how he dodges the raindrops.

Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour - ''Basically, run'' - 5 
Very much in Moffat's spirit. I dropped the series back during the Tenth's era, so I haven't really seen much of the Eleventh. I also don't know the context of this episode, so it's hard to fully appreciate this scene. Although I did appreciate the callbacks. 
Spider-Man 3 Dance Scene with "Realistic" Audio - (No Music) - 5 
Funny, but nothing more. There are better uses of this gag. Interestingly, I was also thinking of sending some Toby meme.
Under This Luminous Sky | Animated Short Film 2022 - 6
Feels like a scene from a feature-length film. But while movies usually have time for other scenes that let you get invested in the characters, that wasn't provided here. Not that it's bad, but I've seen better short films.
Titanic with a Cat 
Why, that's Anders and Kash from Serberia! (I was waiting for someone to make that joke before me)
Моложе я не стал - 5
Unconventional. Though, I must note, there's something to it.
Ycare - Sors (Clip officiel) - 1 
Those three minutes dragged on for an eternity. You know those music videos that feel like an advertisement for something, but aren't actually an ad? This is one of those videos.
Dance & Adventure in NYC / Rufus Du Sol - Underwater  - 5 
They dance well, but not quite my thing.
My Ordinary Life-The Living Tombstone - 5 
I love Tombstone's songs, but this one isn't on that list. The music video didn't really grab me either.
Kazama Iroha animation - 5 
The ending with the screen was amusing, but nothing more.
Little Dark Age - American Cinema - 5 
Haven't seen some of the films. Seen some of the films, and they're not that good/bad. Some I couldn't even tell if they were supposed to be the good ones or the bad ones. If the intention was to convey an idea, I think it would have been better to use clips from old movies and their less successful reboots/sequels. But at least the song is good.

Did they execute her friend afterward?

A princess or a runaway? Either way, I believe everyone is still alive...

Why didn't Lock mention the lisp as a negative point here?

I didn't notice, or maybe I wasn't listening closely. Strangely enough, this is one of the best videos from that channel (I don't like the author and her content, but once, at work, I watched almost the entire channel out of boredom).

I love this scene and consider it very significant and important for the Doctor. For once, he used his reputation, and it was about time. And it's beautifully filmed.
However, Moffat's era in general and the Eleventh Doctor in particular didn't immediately appeal to me, so it's partly a matter of taste.

I was ready to forgive him a lot, but when he said he hated apples, that was a serious overstep...

where are the pictures?
