RWBY AMV: "My Way"
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- My inspiration's back! Just in time for the four-year anniversary of this channel, jeez. Consider this a sister piece to "Feeling Good" that falls somewhere between "Soldier" and "Handlebars" on the Ironwood-villainy scale. Hope you enjoy!
I love this because although he was for sure wrong HE DID DO IT HIS WAY!!!! He was true to himself and what he believed through it all. He was wrong but I respect him. And this AMV really shows that mindset for me
0:37 This moment in the show has a key unsung detail. James's hand makes a clinking noise when he grabs the mug, like two solid surfaces. It was our first hint of his metal body.
This is an uncannily good villain song.
And the fact that the final beat goes to Winter is kinda chilling. It'll be on her to decide where Atlas goes from here, and she is both very powerful and deeply wounded right now.
i swear i was afraid she was going to be too loyal to ironwood, thank goodness i was wrong!!
TFS Cell did his version "Perfectly". 😂
villain?
Its interesting how this kind of changes the context, you could read it that it makes the song actually kind of sinister, just the idea that for all the horrible things he did, he genuinely still tries to think that he did the right thing or did all he could. And dies with the very thing that led him to do all these things, intense Pride
Or you could read it as him attempting to convince himself he was the hero who did all he could and die proud of himself, before he ultimately realizes that yes, this WAS 'his way', he rejected and ignored everyone else and actively undermined everyone else's efforts as they tried to do the real right thing simply so he could avoid admitting he was wrong. He did this and he caused this. Bitterfully realizing at the end
'Yes...It was...My way"
What a beautiful way to say "I screwed up all on my own."
A lot of people said a lot of things about the last RWBY seasons. In my opinion, Ironwood did everything right, considering what he knew at any given time. Us as viewers, we always had more insight on events than him, and most plans he made, he made them thinking it was the main course of action. Plus, remember: he is based on the Tin Man, which he was doomed to sin by lacking of heart, just like Leo, the Lion, was doomed to sin by lacking of courage.
This was worth the wait - the table-turning of winter on the penultimate “my way”, and ironwood on the last was perfect. But, i can easily see the thought that went into every shot and every cut/effect throughout the entire vid…. This one is a real contender for best vid so far.
On rewatch i now see that opening clearly foreshadows the ending shots that i commented on…. I think the consistency of this vid is a level above.
Requiem for a general. Its very well done in the edits and lining up the idea that maybe this whole bit is Ironwood reflecting on all his choices just before the flood comes in. Fantastic work.
It's always nice to see such a classy classic song get used for modern media.
Ah, General Ironwood... as time has gone on, it still hurts to have seen him fall so far, so fast. This was an incredible work, it really captured the essence of the General, both in his proudest moments and in his most pathetic. It cannot be denied though that he followed his own path, adverse to anyone else's. How you tied Winter into it with the heart-wrenching "I don't know what I would do without you."
Due to my own preferences, I don't see many slow song amvs.
So it's real treat to see one that fits a character (or characters) and focuses more on the poignant beats of a show.
I watched a lot of amv and yours still have the best syncing
I honestly wouldn’t have ever thought of this song for a RWBY amv but it fits so perfectly, especially for Ironwood!!!
Your work is always top tier, I’m so impressed!
THIS SONG ALWAYS GETS ME
YOUR EDITING GETS ME TOO AND COMBINED ITS JUST DNDNJDND
My favorite part was "I took the blows" with Penny. damn! so good
Wow! What a fascinating new context for both the song and the character!
Welp. You've done it again, wrenched another tear from my eye before I knew it was there. I have no words for how much these have meant to me in the last couple years, thank you.
Absolutely Stellar! such a foreboding atmosphere with an amazing ending, definitely a new favourite of mine!
oh and happy four-year anniversary! :)
honey. honey wake tf UP the best part of rwby just upated. yeah honey ThusKindlySheScatters posted wake u
That video thumbnail is so good!
Scatter woke up and choose violence.
That scene with winter using the maiden powers was so beautiful
I got chills! Ironwood's path is one of the most interesting and tragic in the whole show, in my opinion, and you really captured that here.
This was truly fantastic. RWBY paired with Frank Sinatra!? Genius! Loved everything about this and the voice overs just added so much more to the video. 😁👍
This song is perfect for ironwood
knocked it out of the park once again, i love this song, and i think youve used it really well to portray ironwoods stubbornness (i mean thats what it was in the end, extreme paranoia and stubbornness)
G O R G E O U S as always ❤️❤️ I’ve been watching your vids for about 2 years now and they just keep getting better and better and better 🫶🫶🫶
Good Lord, this is so good! The transitions are immaculate! Well done!! 👏👏👏
Thus.... First, Happy 4 years of this channel!!! Your works are some of the best RWBY AMVS I've had the pleasure to watch. Your varied music choices and pinpoint editing make you a step above, in my book!!
That said.... This one is one of your finest work to date!!! Only you could have fashioned such a fitting and moving epitaph for the journey of Gen. James Ironwood thru the RWBY series. It hit all the right notes and gave him a farewell so worthy of him!! o7 Good or bad, he did what he believed to the last.... BRILLIANT!!! 😎🙏🌹👏😥
This is such an Ironwood song! Also, I'm not completely sure you take recommendations, but I'd like to recommend "The Sword and the Pen" by Regina Spektor. It just gave me RWBY vibes.
Ooh, good choice! Definitely an Arkos song, or a Salem song if I'm feeling lazy :P I'll put it on The List!
@@ThusKindlySheScatters Yay!
honestly better than the actual show tbh
happy four year anniversary!
I think that the song Skeltons by First in Flight would work pretty well. The song is about secrets and how they catch up to you.
Still wondering how can you match the scenes with songs so perfectly. That is some serious creativity talent to remember all the scenes and know when to use them.
This is so amazing 🤩. I love the way you use the music and footage together to craft a narrative about the mindset of ironwood (and winter :D). Amvs that tell a story is something I’ve admired and something I hope to do one day!
This is so good! The song was perfect for this! I recommend the songs Payphone by Maroon 5 or Rise by Jonas Blue
Very good music to this amv :)
Wow.Such beauty. And I was going to suggest Frank Sinatra by Cake. 😅
This is SOOO GOOOOODDDD
Incredible!
oh shit this was phenomenal
Dramatic Finish!!!!
Having watched several times, i have a request… Please make a companion amv about Ruby using the same artistic approach such that together, these two vids are more than the sum of the parts…. Or else i will blast you with my eyebeams!!
The General may be gone, but he's still my hero.
Ironwood brought about his own downfall because he wanted to do things his way.
Ironwood will forever be my fucking GOAT.
I'll never forgive what they did to him.
Truly fitting song for a tragic hero.
chase holfelder my way cover also would've been a good one
класно реально круто 🤯👍
Feels weird to hear a version that isn't sung by Mr. Perfect Cell...
What editing software do you use? You’re what got me into the idea of making AMVS but my trial for the software I used for my first one has run out and I was wondering what you use
First off, so glad to hear you've gotten interested in editing! I use Adobe Premiere Pro to edit and Adobe After Effects to color -- Premiere does have some basic coloring software, though, so you don't NEED both. I also used iMovie for ALL my videos up through 2020, so it's a) perfectly capable, b) free, and c) a great learning tool that I'd highly recommend starting out on if you have access to it! Good luck :D
I still hate what was done with Ironwood in Volume 8, but this is beautifully done.
I've said it once and I'll say it again ironwood did nothing wrong
BASED BASED BASED AND TRUE
You the best Ironwood
Can you also do a version with the Andy Black version of the song? Andy Black is the side project of Black Veil Brides' Andy Biersack.
Shit, I'm crying...
I was honestly on his side they didn’t have any ideas on how to get out of the situation they were in until the end when the writer pulled the teleportation and ships out of their ass . Really my least favorite Rwby season really hated the characters except Ironwood
Not the greatest fan of this song but amazing edits as always
I'm not sure if this is tragic or pitch-black hilarious.
