shrug I suppose it's a bit silly to argue over a spectrum of expression, but I'd say that the Lose Yourself video shows someone communicating in sign with a level of expressiveness that verbal speakers rarely achieve. Now granted, that's comparing an above-average signer to average speakers, so it's not a fair comparison. Perhaps a better comparison would be between the signer and the original artist (Eminem). But if advanced signers can compete with advanced speakers for expressiveness, I think it's hard to argue that sign is less expressive.
