Although I must confess that I have seen none of these. Uh. I had dial-up? And a tendency to get distracted by the music and so miss the shiny? Um.
Here, have a link to distract you: an old rec I did for a 'book trailer' that some people did. It's here (http://delurker.livejournal.com/14249.html). It's for Neil Gaiman's Coraline, and it's absolutely brilliant. Because the book is all text, and the vid is animated, but it's the kind of animation the book would be if it weren't text. And the music is perfect! Basically, this is the book in vid form, pimping-style. I have no words to express how awesome it is, but I encourage everyone to go check it out, and squee a lot.
(This is one of the few recs I've made that someone has commented on to squee about the vid. That's how good it is.)
