Here's Something Different!

I found this interesting video stumbling along the other day. It's a well made video, here is the description pulled from the site it is hosted on:

"In this remixed narrative, Edward Cullen from the Twilight Series meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It's an example of transformative storytelling serving as a pro-feminist visual critique of Edward's character and generally creepy behavior. Seen through Buffy's eyes, some of the more sexist gender roles and patriarchal Hollywood themes embedded in the Twilight saga are exposed - in hilarious ways. Ultimately this remix is about more than a decisive showdown between the slayer and the sparkly vampire. It also doubles as a metaphor for the ongoing battle between two opposing visions of gender roles in the 21ist century."

Enjoy!

I've seen this before! What an epic social commentary on young females! *Sigh* I miss the 90s.
