I'm positive that a lot of those picture you showed in that slideshow were used with a "own3d!!" text.

Pretty well done, given that it's a slideshow. My only real problem with it is that it's become a bit cliche to use that song for videos such as this. I saw a very similar video a few weeks ago that used the Joey Ramone version of the song.

Oh, no, I'm not accusing you of anything. I'm just saying it's become cliche, not because people are using other people's ideas, but because it is a good song to use for these kinds of videos, or movies where something happens that's bad for the world, like if it explodes (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), or people die (end of a Scrubs episode, probably others). Also, it was used in Bowling For Columbine. The problem is that it's become used to the point of cliche.

I didn't know the story behind your video, though. I see why you used the song now.

A song I would love to hear to go with these types of videos is I Don't Want to Grow Up, though. Or Poison Heart.

I've yet to see a video like this before.

I like the video. I give it 4 stars. It gets you thinking and thats pretty much the point of it. :|
