Fandom

If actions speak louder then words then look no further for a   medias success known as fans. The vibe people create with a simple common interest makes any art worth while. Fans are a secondary motivator for the creator when talking about media. The reason many individuals put their work out there is to be seen. To get a reaction from the spectator. basically It comes down to either one likes the work or they don't. fandom alters from person to person. If I like Ice cream then I'm a fan of ice cream. I may not be an extreme fan, but never the less I am a fan. Many of the times I think people picture extreme irrational individuals who act out of reasoing because they like to associate themselves to a liking of something. I don't believe that at all. A fan of any subject is likely to feed their "super" "id" "ego" reguardless of what they are pretending to be like. If Star wars was never created I believe many of the people who do cos play and other fans of that nature would find themselves playing the same tune to another song.

On a liter note this video is a compilation of peoples work who are fans of films . It shows again that common interest can push art forms in a interesting direction. These edits are better then most proffesional montages.
