I am sometimes very impressed by people's video editing skills

There are a lot of fanvids cut together on the internet. Most of them are fairly mediocre.

But occasionally you bump into something like this, which cuts together various plotlines from the first two seasons from GoT into a three-minute recap in preparation for season three, and does so in a way that's, if anything, more epic than the series itself:

"Who lives? Who dies? (Game of Thrones)" (Watch on YouTube)

Really nice use of music, manages to portray plot coherently, and brings the whole thing to a fantastic climax. I wouldn't even know where to start!

(Thanks to amuseoffyre for that.)
