AMV Minis Challenge #11: Old Memes
Entry Period: Oct 30 - Nov 26

For this challenge, I want you to create a video that pays homage to or makes use of an old internet meme. And by old, I mean anything that predates the "rickroll", which began circa May 2007. You can check http://knowyourmeme.com to verify if a certain meme is older than that.

Before creating your video, please be sure to read over the following page, which details the rules and explains how to submit your video:

This will be interesting.

[Sir Fluffykins]

Jan 2007, means...DR OCTAGAMAPUS IS VALID! "Shoop da WHOOP WHOOP BLAAAAAAARRGHH!!"

[N.P.C.C.]

Uh oh....drawing a blank.

[Zarxrax]

Here's a timeline I found which lists a few old ones: http://www.dipity.com/tatercakes/Internet_Memes/
You need to zoom in to see them all.

[Shuiia]

No

nonononono

[ijp92]

Rick Roll.
dramatic chipmuck.
all your base.
numa numa.
over 9000.

this video will be dredging the lake of the internet.

[Sir Fluffykins]

Can you use multiple memes, or does it have to be ONE

[UTF]

So we've got creating content that will be dated almost instantly (The Fox), and content that's already dated as hell?

[jinzo64]

so any meme before may 2007?

[jinzo64]

^that doesn't realy answer my question.

the honest truth is I can't name a meme from this year let alone one from way back in before ric rolled.

[vejtornado]

The site zarx posted does contain dates in which the meme appeared

[jinzo64]

that is very true.
I noticed that but, I'm just wondering how many people will remember those memes.

[vejtornado]

nvr knew of the fresh prince meme but remember some of them

[PrinnyCat]

I actually remember a lot of these. Just picking one which will work/won't be overused/hasn't already been used to death

[Moon Spirit]

Well....this will be something. Nothing can certainly go wrong.

[Stevie]

Here's a good source, these should all be before 2007. http://youtu.be/mi_XEAA9X6c

[Backmask]

This will be one of the more painful episodes.

[urahara1001]

I think it is time to deploy the nostalgia bomb.

[Haar]

Have we officially started the episode quality betting pool yet?

[humnut]

Oh hell yeah, I got one for this!

[bonehimer]

Got some ideas, but they are fairly newgrounds centric.

[SirLoinofBeef]

That's strange. The entry form doesn't seem to be listing this one yet.

[Zarxrax]

That's strange. The entry form doesn't seem to be listing this one yet.

Whoops, I thought I forgot something.

[ThatsNotMyName_studio]

That's strange. The entry form doesn't seem to be listing this one yet.

Does that mean you already have yours done?
Speedo - The Cadillacs (1955) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QeQ5Svch-8)

[Haar]

I finished mine two months ago. Not sure if that should make me happy or sad.

[SirLoinofBeef]

Whoops, I thought I forgot something.

lulz


Does that mean you already have yours done?
Speedo - The Cadillacs (1955) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QeQ5Svch-8)

Actually yes, though it's pretty short, so that might have something to do with it. The idea just kind of clicked.

[Akyho]

The release of Battle cruiser 3000ad was a meme? I mean...I know why...I bought the "MILLENNIUM" edition.....which fixed 0 bugs or made that game playable...I bought it in 2003.

The oldest two to me was Dancing baby and Hamster Dance.

You know the one meme you must all use?

Weird thing is it is still overused....especially with AMV Hell........

[Kaiju]

[Gleeman]

Hamster dance? Hmmm...

Guess I'll try to make something for this one, haven't done anything yet...:sweatdrop:

[Sir Fluffykins]

Too bad we can't use Jojo's Fabulous Adventures :3

So would something like this be valid? (note: Mine, from AMV Tennis, but don't plan on using it for this)

[Guthix]

well ****...
some one PLEASE make an internet is for porn clip, i think id survive watching the chalange

[ThatsNotMyName_studio]

well ****...

You know, now that you mention it, If I took out the text overlays, my "Glory Desu" clip does that.
(don't worry, I won't do that....watching it over does not improve it any =D )

[hosokawa37]

wow, i never knew Yatta! was a meme. that one skit in Hell 4 makes sense now xD

and I found a meme that will def work, and have an idea what anime to use, but thats only 75% confirmed xD

[Chewi105]

Hokay, I'm determined, no dropping out this time. I'll submit an entry, even if its the LAST. THING. I. DO.

[Fendo]

Zarxrax be prepared for a ton of "all your base" and "numa numas" :/
that aside I can't wait see someone pulled out a good one of chuck norris facts with pure anime badassery xD
good luck to all :D

[PrinnyCat]

Would be nice if could know what old memes were entered already, like have a list or something. Might prevent loads of numa numas etc. Obviously don't reveal who did them, just what has already been used

[UTF]

For the love of god, just pick the best clip using the same audio source this time.

[thedarkmessenger]

wow, i never knew Yatta! was a meme. that one skit in Hell 4 makes sense now xD

and I found a meme that will def work, and have an idea what anime to use, but thats only 75% confirmed xD

Yatta! was a meme? :O.


That skit in Hell 4 still made sense to me even before I knew that, BTW :P

[SirLoinofBeef]

Yatta! was a meme? :O.


That skit in Hell 4 still made sense to me even before I knew that, BTW :P

Don't know if it's considered an actual meme, but it is pretty funny.

[TheBeardedOne]

Umm... are you sure about this? This premise sounds ominously "Fox"-like.

[Chewi105]

The Fox episode was way too specific, giving no room for creativity. With this one, at least we have 15 or so overused sources as opposed to just one.

[Antonio Black]

Yeah, a lot of those old ones have been used in the series before. But then again, we're chock full of creative people so we won't have to worry about repetition.

[Thetruecrow]

Just gonna drop this.

[Sir Fluffykins]

I want to use a well-known but "unused in AMV Hell" meme. However it taking a long time to find one.

[vejtornado]

gt 1 idea so far just about finalised

[ThatsNotMyName_studio]

Methinks I's has idea for this one here. =)

[FORDboy357]

http://mintingnickels.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Lightbulb.png

I have an idea.

[PrinnyCat]

Had such a perfect idea, but found out the meme was going to use originated July 2007 D:

[SuperLoliSentai]

Had such a perfect idea, but found out the meme was going to use originated July 2007 D:

I am pretty sure Zarx will let it slide...

[ThatsNotMyName_studio]

ok i has idea for this =)

[CetuS]

Zidane headpunch?

[FORDboy357]

Submitted. Turned out well.

[ThatsNotMyName_studio]

Zidane headpunch?
Definitely close.......maybe ;)

[PrinnyCat]

Well I've finally finished mine, can't say I'm overly proud of it though

[BakaLyte39K]

Well I've finally finished mine, can't say I'm overly proud of it though

Believe me, it can't be worse then mine. It's so bad, Zarx said wow... in chatbox when I submitted it. I'm sure Haar saved a screencap of it.

[mattroks101]

I want to see this screencap now...

[BakaLyte39K]

I want to see this screencap now...

Too bad you and Haar aren't OTP now. Otherwise you could get him to post it.

[Haar]

I have plenty of screencaps proving that I don't screencap everything, but if you want to see it so badly.

[DXM]

Mine's in.

[Moon Spirit]

Still have my idea, but procrastination is a real bitch. Have not even made any effort yet, but better late than never.

[hosokawa37]

I figured I'd wait until the last minute for this one, but I have mine submitted already five days ago. Can't say it's my best work but whatever: it works

[Moon Spirit]

Ah screw it. Not gonna make it, and it doesn't look like it will be great anyway. I quit. Moving on to the next challenge.

[ThatsNotMyName_studio]

I got this done in time.

[The Real Inferno]

Why do you guys give updates?

[Sir Fluffykins]

To create Peer pressure to get others to finish their clips.

[The Real Inferno]

I doubt anyone on this site thinks their actions that far through.

[Haar]

You sure about that?

[SilentChaz]

Why do you guys give updates?
You're not the only person who wonders that sometimes, Inferno.


You sure about that?
We all know he meant- “anyone besides Haar”.

So... just how many lazors will there be in this round?

[Zarxrax]

Alright, rounds closed!

[SuperLoliSentai]

May I ask how many entries were submitted?

[SilentChaz]

^Come on, Boss. Let there be some surprises left in life.

[Zarxrax]

Roughly the same number as last time.
