Song/Artist: How Soon Is Now? by The Smiths
Description: Abed-focused episode study of Community 2.5 'Messianic Myths and Ancient Peoples'
By and for: bop_radar and kuwdora. This vid began as a gift to kuwdora, but her creative input was so great that it really is 95% her efforts. I am the Starburns to her Abed in this scenario. Concept, song choice, titles, banner and art direction are all hers. More than that, in order to achieve said art direction she had to embark on a process somewhat akin to teaching a four-year-old child with ADD the principles of Photoshop... via the internet. Suffice to say that I fear I gained far more from the experience than she did. &hearts

This is awesome, haha. I really need to watch more Community, don't I?

[kuwdora]

you should! It is AMAZING. The first episode or so makes it seem like it'll be all about the Jeff Winger, but it turns into this incredible ensemble show of hijinks and shenanigans. Pop culture references everywhere. Actual character development the likes you don't actually see in comedies. It's awesome!

This vid is awesome!

[kuwdora]

heee! Abed is AWESOME!! :D

This is fantastic!! I love the way this condenses the focus of the storylines and really pulls out what's going on w/the characters. :)

[kuwdora]

your icon rocks! and yess. I know boppy was extraordinarily happy to pull out the Jeff and Pierce storyline from the ep and just keep it to the Shirley and Abed awesomeness. \o/

omg you made another Community vid! And with kuwdora! SO EXCITED> *downloads*

[fiercynn]

eeee I love this so much! Oh ABED. And SHIRLEY. I love their relationship by the end of this, and you show the progression so well! ♥

[kuwdora]

ABED! SHIRLEy!~ omg, this show is so awesome. I never in a million years though that they'd do an episode about Abed and Shirley, especially when it's about Abed, Shirley and religion but omg the show sooo doesn't disappoint! eeeee

so glad you love it! we love it too!

Oh, that was super cool! I don't know who these people are, but the narrative seems pretty clear and I LOVE the song choice!

[kuwdora]

The show is lol-tastic and wacky. <3 Glad you liked the vid! meta!Abed-Jesus is awesome! The Smiths is the only way to portray his serious take on portraying a filmmaking Jesus, bwahah.

Why thank you! :)

I just saw this ep for the first time, and was immediately linked to this vid (by kouredios), and omg, this vid is perfect. I LOVE IT. The awesomeness of Abed! The beauty of the moment where it becomes clear that Shirley heard him praying and is going to answer his prayers! Oh, I love them so much. This vid is made of win.
