Actually AMV's are an art form. Like all art forms they have a theme and just like sculptures that are made from stone, metal or even trash, AMV's are made from anime clips which needs creativity.

I also see AMV's like collage - which is a work of formal art, made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole.
