AMV - Mother's Day Special - Dragon Ball Z

Description from l33tmeatwad:
I came up with the concept for this video back in January of 2011, but I was unable to make it at the time since the series had not been fully released via the Dragon Boxes.  I am glad that I had to wait to make this video simply because my skills as an editor have improved a lot since then.  I told this idea to some of my friends back when I came up with it and they constantly asked about it and have been waiting for it to be completed...and now the wait is over.

Anime: Dragon Ball (TV) & Dragon Ball Z (TV)
Song: Motherlover (Edited)
Artist: The Lonely Island
Title Screen Audio: Dragon Ball Z (TV)
Credits Audio: "3-Way (The Golden Rule)" by The Lonely Island

Software Used:
Notepad :)
AviSynth
VirtualDub
Photoshop
After Effects
MeGUI (Encoding)

Technical Details:
The rough cut was done with AviSynth and I used After Effects to style the video.  Photoshop was used alongside After Effects to create the title screen.

Easter Eggs:
Both instances of Goten being held as a baby is actually clips of Gohan since Goten is not shown in the series as a baby.
The bottle Goten is holding in verse two is a bottle in the shower with Bulma from an early episode of Dragon Ball the original series and the roses are the ones Sharpner brought for Videl at the tournament.
The clip of Trunks with a camera is actually a combination of a scene with Sharpner using a camera and a still shot of Trunk's face blown up to replace him.
In the video credits the title of the song is shown as "Mother Lover", but the correct spelling is "Motherlover".
The clips used in the credits were all recycled from the finished video.

Please stop editing, your greatness is making the rest of us look bad.

Obligatory Mother's Day post. It's tradition! Doesn't every mom deserve sultry lovin'?

[vegitoblue]

I believe The lonely Island watches DBZ and created this song based on DBZ because this video is so convincing such as: the father passed away and the father left, which although is normal in everyday life, the way you done it is excellent. Well Done!!!

[stuffed]

You definitely need to do more DBZ AVZ's. They rock!!!

[ZSoulProductions]

Well damn. This is going to be one of those videos I'm going to watch every day now huh?

[BecauseImBored]

[Macintrasher]

This shit is hilarious!!! Admittedly, the melody is really cool; you could probably redo the lyrics any way you wanted and I'd still like it musically. In fact, has anyone done that? This melody is sweet, I wanna hear moar!
