    • My suggestions are a bit more pedestrian:

      First suggestion: Train fans.

      Whether they're Acelas™ blowing past stations @ 150mph, or fast-speed Metro North™ trips from New Canaan to Stamford, there are people who like filming trains and posting the videos online.

      Second suggestion: Low Approaches by Aircrafts

      You could Google Princess Juliana Airport and find videos of low approaches from the beach behind the perimeter of the airport. There are also old videos of low approaches from Hong Kong's old airport as well.

      Or you could do a film lesson on transportation videos in general.

    • You could do a VVFS on soccer, not a bad time since the World Cup going on right now and there are a lot of vids of people showing their soccer skills (Some good and Some suck). An example of some good skills is Remi Gaillard in his recent video of him doing rediculous soccer shots.

    • Depending on the game and player, LPs (or "let's plays") can be a pretty unusual experience. Why actually play a video game, when you can watch a 23 year old Swedish guy play it to completion and break out his most creative English expletive collection. If I had the patience to watch more of these things, I'd have a few gems to suggest, but there are plenty of them out there.

    • I vote that you do a VVFS over marriage proposals. Some are just great and huge and epic, but the most epic ones are the biggest fails that occur.

      And use this for your wall things. Pleeeeeeeeease.

    • Teachers! Specifically, camera phone + 10-year-old + bored in school = hilarity/tragedy. Just type "teacher" into the search box and all sorts of random and horrifying things come up.

    • You've done the youtube's best screamers and a couple pop quizzes, but what about other music videos/musicians.
      Or wedding fails/all the dumb stuff people do in the name of love.

    • I still think you should do a lesson on flash movies. Like you could put in all the viral cartoons. Ex. Adventure Time with Jake and Finn, Metal Gear awesome, or whatever popular flash animations tickle your satirical fancy.

      P.S. I'll be drawing another pic for your wall very soon. :)
