Posted! \o/ I expect it went down a storm at Challenge? :D

I love, love, love just how transparent and direct this is. You spit such a mouthful of poison and it's just carried out so well, from the hopeful beginning to the way it is ALL FUCKED UP at the end. The segment with all the dead women never ever fail to bring a chill down my spine. Great work. :D

It did, yes! Thankfully! Even though I found out you spilled the beans :-P *thwap*

That is so great to hear considering our early conversations about how neither of us had any idea how I would pull this off. It's funny how it all seemed so convoluted in my head until I started clipping, and then it just all came together. If anything I ended up worried that it'd be too obvious in a very ABC kind of way. I hope I achieved enough of a balance.

Thanks again for all your support along the way!

Who? What? Seriously. o_O I just have such a bad memory that I honestly can't recall. Apologies if I did. You know I love you. :)

[jarrow]

Hee! You just can't keep anything from Brad, can you :-P

(Daww, I love you too!)

I really enjoyed this as an exploration of fannish ire...which I've definitely felt! *coughcough*spn*coughcough*

[jarrow]

Ahahaha. What, BSG doesn't hold the rights to show derailment? ;-)

(Glad you liked it! Thank you!)

OH HOLY FUCK.

You pull no punches. "Keep your dignity." Yeah. The sound of this son is just a perfect match for what you're doing, almost this scream of rage. I'm glad you're the one who vidded it, because not many people can vid that fast and accurately, not losing an iota of energy from those pounding beats or horrifying images, just making it build and build.

I was especially struck by the clip at 1:14 - like someone trying to tap out, but it's not allowed.

All these terrible violent things are being done TO the characters, but are also being inflicted on us, the audience. Wow. They don't have a plan. They never did have a plan.

Jesus Christ, man. That was one powerful act of expression.

Yes, THIS. So much this. The betrayal at the end of the show just felt so personal, you know?

I'm so glad this vid resonated so deeply with you. Thanks for the wonderful comment!

Thank you. That was highly satisfying.

[jarrow]

Thank you! I'm so pleased to hear it!

I didn't even watch the damn show, and I'm still angry at Ron Moore. this was awesome.

[jarrow]

Thank you! You're certainly not alone in your anger, heh. I'm pleased to hear this vid worked for you!
