Inspired by Trelkez's Self-Curated Vidshow Challenge, we decided to each make a vidshow of each other's vids. This is a vidshow curated by @tafadhali using the works of @periru3. We also made one together using both of our works.
Unprodigal Daughters (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) — "Disenchanted daughter and this train cannot move fast enough"
The Bullpen (Avatar: The Last Airbender) — "Forget the bull in the china shop, I'm the china doll in the bullpen"
Rose Garden (Revolutionary Girl Utena) — "When you take you gotta give so live and let live or let go"
Hard Out Here (Mad Men) — "It's hard out here for a bitch"
Angry Too (Chucky) — "Does it get your blood boiling? / Does it make you see red?"
Eat Them (multifandom) — "I could puke you up, you and your misogyny"
Body Terror Song (Nimona) — "Oh how they'll screw you, all up and over, then feed you silence for dessert"
After All (Everything Everywhere All at Once) — "Go ahead, push your luck"
Lost on You (She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) — "So let's raise a glass / To all the the things I've lost on you"
Ain't That Bad (The Favourite) — "I woke up after two shots of whiskey / Guess what, I don't even see you there"
King of Anything (Overboard) — "You've got opinions, man / We're all entitled to 'em, but I never asked"
The Rooster Can F**k Himself (Kevin Can F**k Himself) — "The very next morning, the chicken decides to / Make her escape, get a taste of freedom"
Maneater (multifandom) — "Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up"
Whatever You Like (multifandom) — "Baby, you can have whatever you like"

After watching a lot of the playlists from Trelkez's Self-Curated Vidshow Challenge, @periru3 and I were inspired to make a few playlists of our own. We each independently made entirely female-centric playlists for each other's vids, and then asked "What theme would we highlight if we only looked at our vids for male characters?" And, well...this is what we came up with.
Sports Analogies (Sports Night) — Men will literally talk about sports instead of going to therapy.
Paperback Writer (Stephen King) — Men will literally sublimate their trauma into horror novels instead of going to therapy. [this isn't in the YT playlist due to copyright issues]
New Shore (Our Flag Means Death) — Men will literally run off to sea instead of going to therapy.
Truth (Steven Universe) — Men will literally therapize everyone they know instead of going to therapy.
Skate (Yuri on Ice) — Men will literally move to Japan for a boy instead of going to therapy.
Boyfriend (Crashing) — Men will literally obsess over their cute neighbor instead of going to therapy (or coming out).
Horny Angry Tango (Hobbs & Shaw) — Men will literally invent intricate rituals to touch the skin of other men instead of going to therapy.
I'm Gonna Make You Love Me (Christine) — Men will literally buy a car instead of going to therapy.
Scientist (Re-Animator) — Men will literally commit crimes against nature instead of going to therapy.
Haven't You Noticed I'm a Star (Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts) — Men will literally become supervillains instead of going to therapy.
Don't Bring Me Down (Bruce) (Batman: The Animated Series) — Men will literally get a batsona instead of going to therapy.
Grace Kelly (Catch Me If You Can) — Men will literally change their identity instead of going to therapy.
California (Mad Men) — Men will literally go to California instead of going to therapy.
When We're Dancing (11.22.63) — Men will literally time travel to the 1950s instead of going to therapy.
Achilles Come Down (Red & Black Edition) (Les Misérables) — Men will literally nobly self sacrifice instead of going to therapy.
Your Woman (Ted Lasso) — Men will literally seethe inside instead of going to therapy.
Man on a Wire (Hannibal) — Actually, on second thought, maybe you shouldn't go to therapy...

Made a rec list of @tafadhali‘s vids. No occasion, they’re just very good. 
-@periru3​
An Unauthorized Tafadhali Vid Starter Pack
Today I was bored, and when I am bored I make lists. The list my brain has decided to make today is a list of my favorite of my sister’s (@tafadhali) fanvids. Except “favorite” was too difficult and too vague, so I started thinking of it in terms of what vids I would recommend to someone who had never seen her vids before. That still wasn’t enough structure for me, so I decided to give myself some categories to make sure I had a wider array of vids represented, and what I ended up with was sort of… vid superlatives? Anyway, I’m quite happy with my list, so I’ve decided to share it with you all. Without further ado, here is me shouting through a megaphone about how cool my sister is for no particular reason:
YouTube Playlist
1) Most On-Brand: I am a (Library) Scientist - Multi-Fandom (Horror)
If you want to get a very quick impression on what sort of vidder Taf is, and some insight into her interests, this is pretty representative.  Multi-fandom? Check! Horror? Check! Literally about her IRL profession? Check! An ideal get-to-know-you vid for Tafadhali. 
2) Special Interest Vid: We Kiss in the Shadows - Multi-Fandom (LGBT)
Love me a vid that’s basically like “hey, come look at this rarely-vidded thing I know lots about!” (admittedly, a not dissimilar category to the one above). Anyway, Taf’s love and knowledge of classic films and of queer film history come through beautifully in this (as well as the other vid in her Screened Out series, Masculine Women! Feminine Men!), and it makes me cry every time. 
Honorable Mention: Paperback Writer - Multi-Fandom (Stephen King)
3) Critical Vid: Fortunate Son - Star Wars
This vid is amazing because it both captures all that I love about Finn as a character while also highlighting and calling out the ways in which the character what let down and done dirty by the writing of Star Wars. Also truly amazing song choice and lyrical matches. 
Honorable Mention: Hail Satan - Stranger Things
4) Character Study: Patient Zero - Harry Potter
One of Taf’s earliest vids, this character study is one I come back to again and again for it’s beautiful and insightful portrayal of Harry’s arc throughout the series, with a focus on his relationship with fame, destiny, and some really complex parental figures.
Honorable Mention: California - Mad Men
5) Shippy Vid: Umbrella - Singin’ in the Rain
Yes, it’s a Cosmo character study, but it’s also the cutest darn OT3 vid in all the land, and it’s Taf’s most popular vid for good reason! It’s a total delight! It’s full of silliness and very well-matched-to-the-music dancing! And it uses a song cover inspired by this very movie, so that’s fun!
Honorable Mention: C’est la Vie - Doctor Who
6) Emotionally Devastating Vid: Achilles Come Down - Les Miserables
If you’re looking to cry, this vid is the one for you! Tafadhali seamlessly blends multiple adaptations of the same story into one heart-wrenchingly gorgeous vid (rendered all the more stark and affecting in it’s Black and Red iteration). This story and these characters are dear to the vidder’s heart, and it shows. 
7) Intense Vid: Man on a Wire - Hannibal
This psychological horror/thriller vid is definitely one to get the adrenaline pumping! The fast-paced song paired with the super sharp editing of this vid really do justice to the visually stunning source, and capture the fractured mental state of Will Graham perfectly.
Honorable Mention: Brutal - Yellowjackets
8) Comfort Vid: Waters of March - Multi-Fandom (Miyazaki) 
This is easily one of my most re-watched of Tafadhali’s vids. While in moments this vid is tinged with sadness or sort of bittersweet nostalgic feelings, by the end of it I always feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and like my heart’s grown three sizes, and a bunch of other sappy metaphors. 
Honorable Mention: Synchronicity - Sense8
9) Vid that Makes Me LOL: Whatta Man - George of the Jungle
Honestly, whatta vid. It manages to be genuinely sweet while also making me giggle like a mad man. The song choice is inspired. It truly captures all that is delightful about this ridiculous movie. Honestly just a good, silly time from start to finish!
Honorable Mention: Short Skirt Long Jacket - What’s Up Doc?
10) Dance Party Vid: Super Bass - Sense8
Also a valid category for this one: The Sexy Vid. Basically it’s just a fun, energetic, sexy, joyous romp of a vid and it makes me want to crank the volume and dance along to Nicki Minaj and the lovely cast of Sense8! 
11) I Don’t Even Go Here: Beautiful Dirty Rich - Columbo 
So when Taf made this, I pretty much knew nothing about Columbo (I’ve since seen a couple eps), but what I did know is I loved the hell out of this vid, and sometimes that’s just how it goes! Must one know who these people are? Is it not enough that a vid entrance you with its on-point editing and its vibes? 
12) Non-English Vid: La Noyée - Portrait of a Lady on Fire
This gorgeous vid, like the movie it’s for, is in French. I think some of the beauty of this one is that while the lyrical matching is perfectly done, if you want to first experience the vid without the distraction of subtitles, I think the visuals paired with the obvious melancholy of the music paints just as clear a picture whether you understand the lyrics or not. 
Honorable Mention: Desaparecida - Carmen Sandiego
13) A Gift for Her Favorite Sister: Sound the Bells - It (Miniseries) 
Look, I never claimed to be coming at this list from an unbiased perspective. And Tafadhali makes me vids all the time, whether in the form of actual gifted works, or just vids she knows I am the main target audience for, so this seemed like a fair category to include. This one in particular is for a fandom that is super meaningful to both of us, and it makes me tear up every time! 
Honorable Mention: Derry Jukebox/Castlerock Around the Clock - Multi-Fandom (Stephen King)
14) A Co-Vid with Her Favorite Sister: The Chosen One’s Lament - Multi-Fandom
Honestly, I couldn’t make this list without this category any more than I could make a list of my own vids without it. We love making vids together, and we’ve made quite a few! This vid is the first (and arguably best) in many categories that have since defined our co-vidding body of work - multi-fandom, meta, humorous, set to Crazy Ex-Girlfriend music, just to name a few. Also the need for the 11-way split screen in this is what got us both to finally transition to using Premiere instead of iMovie, so I’d say we both owe a lot of our subsequent vid quality to this one. 
Honorable Mention: Rose Bride My World - Revolutionary Girl Utena
15) Best In Show: Pynk - Multi-Fandom (LGBT)
I literally cannot praise this vid highly enough. It’s beautifully edited, beautifully curated (what a selection of movies!), beautifully structured. The sheer scale of this project (not to mention the fact that it was editing in iMovie, where organizing clips is basically impossible) is enough for it to warrant a spot on this list, but what really takes it from merely an impressive vid to a truly great one is the love of the subject material that shines through in every clip choice and edit. It’s an earnest celebration of girlhood, adolescence, femininity, and queerness, and watching it even for the hundredth time still takes my breath away. Watching this vid, I just feel so much - I feel awkwardness and the excitement and the angst of growing up, I feel the delight and the connectedness of those formative friendships, I feel the giddiness and the heartache of first loves, I feel the confusion and the joy and the defiance of emergent queerness. I just love everything about this vid and I can’t think of a better example of Tafadhali’s skills and strengths as a vidder than this. 
Anyway, thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
