So happy to see the Tarantino mixtape on there. It's really fantastic work.

Yeah, I clicked on the Tarantino mixtape and can safely report that it is 110% awesome.

Personally, nothing punched my ovaries harder in '09 than Capucine. (Granted, many of the videos doing the most serious punching were actually from '08, but I did not discover them till '09.) If there is a separate list for videos that make you realize you want to spawn a tiny baby Amelie, she totally makes top three.

Bathtub IV is amazing and makes the whole tilt shift fad worth while.

So is Vimeo basically Youtube, but not full of crap content and trash users?

I really like vimeo, it's like alternate, interesting universe YouTube. So this is cool, thanks.

Still waiting for someone to do the backwards bathtub full of sand thing from the Hitchhiker's Guide.

I really enjoyed Imaginary Hero, and Bathtub IV basically made me weep. Great post.
