An example of a music video that I like would be the music video for the well-known singer/song-writer Ed Sheeran's song "Lego House":
The reason that I like this music video is that it stars a well-known actor, Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley from the Harry Potter films), who bears a resemblance to Sheeran, providing humour to fans of both Sheeran's music and the Harry Potter films. I also like this music video as there is a big twist at the end in that Grint's character turns out to be an obssessive fan of Sheeran's, instead of Sheeran himself who the audience thought Grint was portraying throughout the video.
An example of a film trailer that I like is the film trailer for the recent Superman reboot "Man of Steel":
The reason that I like this film trailer is that the music in the trailer builds throughout, starting off slow and quiet to accompany the emotions and turmoil the characters are going through, before gaining momentum and becoming loud and fast to accompany the action and destruction happening on the screen. Another reason that I like this film trailer is that the cinematography and camera angles used in the trailer are incredibly varied but work together extremely well.
An example of a video game that I like is the recent action-adventure, survival horror "The Last of Us":
The reason that I like this video game is that the game uses motion capture to create the characters animations and voices, meaning that the game as a whole feels authentic as the actors are contributing more towards the characters than if they were just recording lines in a booth. Another reason that I like this video game is that the game merges several genres together to create a finished product that puts you through several tones and emotions.
An example of a website that I like is: http://whatculture.com/
The reason that I like this website is that, being massively into films, television and video games, this website posts reviews of all three and analyzes several different types of media for a big audience.
