January 25th, 2012

Scene of Alec learning to ride The Black. I barely had to edit the scene because the audio and clips went together so well. :)

Song: Jake’s First Flight (from the movie Avatar)
Composer: James Horner

I OWN NOTHING IN THIS VIDEO. THE BLACK STALLION AND THE SOUNDTRACK TO AVATAR BELONG TO THEIR RESPECTIVE CREATORS! ALL I CLAIM IS THE ARRANGEMENT OF THE AUDIO AND VIDEO CLIPS.

Death Rides a Horse (aka Da uomo a uomo, or As Man to Man) is a 1967 spaghetti western directed by Giulio Petroni, written by Luciano Vincenzoni, and starring Lee Van Cleef and John Phillip Law. Bill Meceita, a boy whose family was murdered in front of him by a gang, sets out 15 years later to exact revenge. On his journey, he finds himself continually sparring and occasionally cooperating with Ryan, a gunfighter on his own quest for vengeance, who knows more than he says about Bill’s tragedy. The film has lapsed into public domain.[1]

Whenever the angered hero encountered one of the bandits who wronged him and killed his family, footage of the wrong being avenged is superimposed over the hero’s face. As a homage, this technique was used by Quentin Tarrantino in Kill Bill whenever The Bride confronted one of the Deadly Vipers.
The main theme of Death Rides a Horse is used in Kill Bill. It is the trilling flute and mixed choral piece played when The Bride calls out O-Ren Ishii and her bodyguards at the House of Blue Leaves.
The scene when the main character, Bill, watches his family being murdered is referenced in the animated scene of Kill Bill. Here the skull necklace is depicted as a skull ring, worn by the man who kills O-rens father.
“Death rides a Horse” is a 1970 reggae single from the Hippy Boys. It appears on the B-side of Max Romeos single “melting pot” on the Pama Unity label
“Death Rides a Horse” is a name of a track on the Russian Circles album Enter
Red Rock is the names of both Bill’s horse from Death Rides a Horse and the final Bull from the movie 8 Seconds

How To Ride a Horse — English Project

October 16th, 2011

READ BEFORE COMMENTING.
This is for my english project for school, I know I’m not as thorough as I could be if I had more time, but I was supposed to keep it short. No, don’t say crap about my riding, the how “not” to ride a horse was planned, and everything was fine. He was pulling for his head alot because he wasn’t ridden for quite some time due to the weather and he was a bit ansy. Also, excuse the pauses in between and the stumbling of words, we were trying to film it fast so we could get in out of the cold. For the record, the last word was “horse” but it was cut off by youtube for some reason. lol.

Riding in snow does us absolutely no justice. So please, don’t judge me by my riding in this video.

I’ll try to reply to all the comments I get on this, as I do all my videos. If somebody takes the time to tell me what they thought about my video, I’ll take the time to reply. :]

I’ve decided to ignore and remove any of the ridiculously stupid comments I get. So if you are trying to get a rise out of me, you’re wasting your time. And if it continues, I can always block you. Just letting you know. :]

STOP saying that we should’ve worn a helmet. We said in the video it’s a good idea to wear one, did we not? It’s MY choice if I want to wear a helmet or not. I know my horse and I’ve ridden without one all my life. My horse, my head, my choice.
