#2That's impressive...I submitted this clip from So You Think You Can Dance:

The results:

...and while it's debatable which of the segments are most interesting (the performance has a lot of highlights), at least all of the extracts are of actual dancing action, and none consist of cheering-crowd-announcer shots.
edit: Just tried it with the Game of Thrones Season 6 trailer:

The first 2 GIFs have decent action...the other 4 are relative duds in terms of action...but I do like the shot of Tyrion simply holding a torch in the darkness.

Glad you like it :) It indeed works well in discriminating the rather good from the rather bad. It doesn't always find the best one of course. The biggest problem in my opinion is that the start and end of the GIF are not always prefect. This sometimes makes the GIF look bad even though the content that was selected would be interesting
