he has the green background but he's not in ipod opera. Think its a fan vid or really glen?

This is getting very interesting...

I hate to be disagreeable here, but this really, really doesn't look like a Glenn video. He's got a specific style to his videos, with color tones, editing and music, and those all seem to be lacking. Plus, I can't think of any reason that an OpAphid video would be uploaded to an account other than the main one.

Not that I'm bashing the video in any way, I'm just saying that to categorize it as canon Op is wrong.. I'm nearly positive it's fan fiction.

That totally true I didn't even think about that. Why introduce new characters when there is characters in Ipod Opera we haven't even seen before...

I'm curious what you think of the female voice in the reversed audio at the end of the video. It really sounds like the voice Glenn has used in production. Seems like that would be hard to fake. What's your opinion, Belle?

"SAITH NODDED PI" anagrams to "APHIDS DON'T DIE"

dehteraew: "Was it a rat I saw?"
ZorinXL: "Rats live on no evil star."

whoa i didn't see this till now but i'm excited... trainer what is dehteraew? is that another youtube account?

This probably isn't Glenn but it's better than nothing.
Could Rats live on no evil star be an anagram too?

Also, I think I hear some overlapping audio while the music is playing. Sounds like Oppy reversed or sped up. Anyone have a program that can figure it out?

If this is related to Maddy I guess I'll have to start caring about her videos.

Luminous, that's the only part that's bugging me. I've cleaned the audio up as much as I could, and it does sound a lot like Op.. But slightly different. I can't put my finger on it, but her cadence is a little strange. While being a pretty hard thing to fake, I think that it's possible.. Sigh. I just don't know. Hah.

Yes, the voice is the thing that caught my attention. It sounds an awful lot like Oppy to me. If it's a fake, then it's a damn good one!

It's an exact phrase taken from an OpAphid video. I do NOT think this is the work of Glenn.

It says: "That our determination to succeed is not strong enough."

The original quote from OpAphid video was "A failure establishes only this, that our determination to succeed is not strong enough."

It just had a different feel to it editing and music wise. I think it's a work of a fan.

This is from tigerlilylynn's review of the video this quote came from: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg0SZpo3mx0

This is a good copy cat. That's about it, though. If it were Glenn's the reversed audio would have been more distinct and he wouldn't have used the stock video footage of the flyovers.

Good catch Libra. You're absolutely right. Still a nice vid though.

More than that, though, really, is where the audio is in the file. The music covers it up. Glenn wouldn't do that. His reversed audio was always very easy to understand. Plus, like I said, the stock video footage of Texas isn't really his style either. This video uses footage from Dallas freeways and doesn't zoom in on the east part of the state where Maddy is.

It's a fine effort, though. Definitely not Glenn's. If it is, he's losing his touch.

There are a lot of little nuances that make it clear. Like learning the difference between a real Rolex and a fake.

Dear, the quote used in the end of the video is used in one of OpAphid's as well. It's from Lose Something.

failure establishes only this.. that our determination to succeed was not strong enough.

The one at the end says Our Determination to succeed was not strong enough...or maybe they cut it out a bit, either way, it's right along those lines.

Ha! I fail, my bad!

Hmmm.... it's getting hard to tell the fanfics from the fanfics, seeing that if OpAphid is back in action it is fanfic now as well. It would nice know which videos are part of which story and which are fanfics of the fanfics.

I am totally confused.
