Interesting Doctor Who vids

I'm not a huge follower of the fan music video tradition -- every now and then one pops up and I watch it. I think it's a great form -- and one of my concerns about all of the copyright battles that are going out is that it's pushed so far underground that fans can't do it. I know that some creators are certainly in favor of the form, especially the ones who are of fandom in the first place.

This video is particularly interesting, especially as a commentary on the series:

Blink

It is not terribly surprising to see Blink win the Hugo for Dramatic Presentation, Short Form. I was pulling for Paul Cornell, but that was as much because Moffat already has two of them and not anything against Blink in particular -- I think the Human Nature/Blink combination is probably the best single DVD of Doctor Who in existence -- and possibly even the best possible Doctor Who DVD in existence.

Of course, it'll be interesting to see if Moffat will be able to keep winning Hugos once he is the showrunner...
