I am so crazy excited to watch this full-size, you don't even know. I've actually been holding off rewatching it despite REALLY wanting to, because I want the version that gets engraved in my memory to be the big higher quality version. Thank you, again, for making something so FREAKING AMAZING. I may return later with more detailed babblement and glee. *g*

[barkley]

Aww, yay! I am so happy you liked it!!

I love Meldrick so much.

[barkley]

Yay!

I've had this icon for years now just waiting for the day it'd be relevant. *g*

I love this vid (I've watched it about twenty times!) and I love Meldrick Lewis and I am so glad to have the higher-quality download. Love the structure, love that you chose to include everything you chose to include.

Oh, thank you! I am so pleased to hear about the Meldrick love. (He's awesom, isn't he?!)

[ticketsonmyself]

He is so awesome and so is your Meldrick icon! :D

Awww, Meldrick. I've only seen about half of _Homicide_, though I'm familiar with how it goes, and this reminded me of how much he grew on me. And the board! Well done.

I love this vid so much. Specifically:

1. The credits.

2. That we start with the whiteboard.

3. Meldrick putting his jacket on Kellerman at 2:09

4. The red, red whiteboard coming up again at 3 minutes in.

5. The closing shot

And, in general, the sense of place and the sense of weariness that pervade this.
