VID REC: Farscape – Everybody’s Free (To Wear Sunscreen)
Vidder: Lithium Doll and Doc Wyrm
Musical artist: Baz Lurman
Pairing: N/A – full ensemble
Vidder on LJ:

Why this vid kicks ass:
There are so many remarkable and amazing Vidders in farscape fandom producing remarkable and amazing Vids, that this was probably the toughest rec I’ve made yet. However, this won out over my other choices for one reason only – it was the one I simply could not believe hadn’t been rec’d yet.
“Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’99…” Baz Lurhman’s advice for life is funny, touching, and oh so true, which makes it a perfect fit for Farscape. While many of the references work best with an in-depth knowledge of the Farscape Universe, they also work for the casual viewer – it’s only watching it later after having seen all the episodes that you realized how much you missed, when at the time you didn’t feel like you were missing anything at all.
If you’ve been skimming these recs, still not sure if you want to bother with this fandom or not, watch this vid. I guarantee you’ll have made up your mind by the end of it. If this vid doesn’t make you a ‘scaper, nothing will.
