Montage Rumble Rant

If you have a Youtube or DeviantArt account, please leave that username as your freewebs name, or at least include it in your comment somewhere so I, and others know who you are. There is no 'reply' ubtton, so I can't really reply to specific people on here. Thanks.
Well for starters I'm glad to see most people are enjoying my recent Welcome to Africa video. If ya haven't seen or knew about it's existence yet, check it out HERE if you're interested!
But enough self-promoting whoreage.
**RANT TIME'D**
Aside from the 'Numa' franchise that struck RE gamer/youtubers, I think the most ripped off idea of mine is the Montages. And while I'd like to make a fourth, I can't help but feel cheesy about it anymore. It's been done over... and over.. and over.. and over again SO many times that I've seen (they even use the same title, some people even got the gonads to take my title and stick a random number on the end as if it's in 'affiliation' XD) I just feel disheartened to even attempt to make a new one. I've seen some pretty drab ideas... but it makes me wonder if my old Montage Rumbles were just as drab, but people only watch cause I'm, well... me.
An ass-kiss magnet.
I know this is basically the same thing I rabbled on about in the last Blog, but I don't think people even got the main point of that one. I wasn't mad at -EVERYONE- who either copied or were 'inspired' by me and my videos. The only people I was 'mad' at (hell I wasn't even really mad, it's mostly funny anyway) were the people who DO copy, but then act like big shit and pretend to be 100% original and/or superior to myself, who never even spoke to them before XD While I do sometimes feel a lil' ripped off that some people copy me to a tee, in the end, the people with true talent will shine through and 99% of the time be original (in as much a sense as 'originality' can be)
But I digress.
Anyfuckingway, yeah. Montages. I'd like to make a 4th sometime, maybe soon, maybe later, who knows, but I've wanted to do one. But now it just seems like another 'Caramelldansen' fad or something. So amny people have done it. Maybe, somewhere deep down, I created a type of 'Meme'. But it still gives me the 'Ugh' feeling when I page through the ideas I have copied down on note pads, just thinking that nowadays the Montages are just flat out lame, cause simply put; they've been overkilled.
I guess I am a little hypocritical compared to the last Blog though. I mean some people did ask me 'What IS originality anyway?' I mean look at me, I sure didn't invent Resident Evil but I make videos about em. Not too original. And the Montage idea itself came from Robot Chicken, and the AMV Hell. I like to think though, that making one specifically for Resident Evil was at least somewhat original in that sense. And now that an ass-ton of people have been doing just that: Resident Evil Montages (even taking the name... again) I suppose it's a done deal of a dead idea.
It's not that I have no other ideas or anything, I just know that my Montage Rumbles are one of the more popular series of videos besides the Numas and the Survivor Series, and I also enjoy doing them very, very much. It's retarded fun. But now it just seems KO'd. As usual, there's not much I can do. I don't hate anyone for how things turn out, but that's why I rant. So I don't axe murder any individuals
But yeah, I don't really plan on having major feedback cause I didn't really 'ask' anything, or whatever. Just another rant. I enjoy typing out what's in my head. Maybe it can weed out more of the people around here. Some might agree, and have advice, others might go and call me a stuck up beyotch again. Then I'll know who to remove on Youtube so yay XDD
