It's an interesting genre, the time-lapse while pan in HD with hyperbolic music. But I'm just burned out on them. Something about these videos just seems overwhelmingly self important and cheesy.

Everyone would be much better off watching Koyaanisqatsi for time-lapse pan with good music and less self-importance:

Unfortunately Hulu is so over-saturated with advertisements you have to be willing to put up with ads throughout the whole presentation, and heaven forbid you try to jump through to see what lies in store.. (79 seconds remaining)

Jesus, if there's one movie that ought to be seen without commercial interruption, that's it. The whole thing is about condemning the commercial interruption of the biosphere. Koyaanisqatsi on Hulu a bit like seeing advertisements for bacon during "Babe".

Oh wow, I agree. The commercials on it are surreal.

To me, these types of videos feel artificial, like a Thomas Kinkade painting[1]. I have been in the high Sierras and the Himalayas at night and the sky never looks that way.
Same goes for the use of HDR with dawn or dusk clouds.
