Heroes Fanvid for the Petrelli Brothers - "Fix You" by Coldplay

Dec 06, 2006 21:09

Okay I'm gonna dedicate this one to never_evil for inspiring me to make it through all our discussions on Nathan and Peter Petrelli. Sadly not everything could fit into this song, but I did my best to show the relationship between the two siblings, how Nathan tries to combat his younger brothers "delusions of grandeur" while still making his own fatal ( Read more... )

*hugz*

I absolutely adore you for making a Petrelli vid but now I adore you even more [as if such a thing were possible] for doing it so beautifully and with the most perfect song.

Aww thank you! *glee* That's what I said, I was talking to you and lightning struck, it was just SO fitting!

And that banner pic? So fitting with the song because Nathan has come to "fix" the situation!

Thanx, I stole it off you ;) No really, I did LOL I realised that bit wasn't on the show when I was doing up the vid, and the screencap I was gonna use didn't work out, so I went and chased down that post in your journal cause THAT was the pic I wanted :$ And LMAO how funny was that that Nathan even SAID that to Peter in the episode!!! He'd come to fix his problems/mistakes (at least I'm sure he said that. Could have been clean up his messes... but same deal). And didn't you just love the "Have you got it out of your system now?" comment? *snickers*

And asgfsdjdkgfh I'll be back for a more in-depth discussion tomorrow night because at the moment I'm ( ... )

I was kind of disappointed that the scene never showed up although hugs are great for the soul too.

heh the unsure "do I hug my brother?" moment. ♥

Peter failing to fly scene in the "try your best, but you don't succeed" awww spot on! And kind of also made me think of Peter as a little boy wanting his parents attention but never succeeding no matter how well he did or tried.

Thanks :D Was a little unsure about using that scene again, but it personified the line *nods* And yeah I have that view of Peter, it's something that goes hand in hand with being a dreamer and wanting to help people, you're constantly striving for the need to be accepted and told that you're doing things right. I think he looks a lot to Nathan for that support, but Nathan rarely gives it.

That scene you used so embodied the fact that Nathan may get to win his campaign [which he wants to so badly] but what he really needs is Peter's love

OMG you totally got what I was trying to convey!!!! *hugz* THANK U!

I don't think there is anything ruthless enough that ( ... )

Loved it, loved it, loved it xD The previous to last scenes: *SQUEE*!!!

It's a beautiful video with a very fitting song. You did an excellent job finding relevant Heroes moments and finding so many of the Petrelli brothers! Without it, I wouldn't even remember the various scenes of them.

Anyway, you captured their emotions and actions amazingly well in the vid, it was a joy to watch. I just hope it doesn't make me want to make a vid as well as your enthusiasm for the show already got me to watch Heroes better and even iconize it! Okay, the watching part might also have a bit to do with the amazing work of the show writers LOL

Oh and on a side note: You were absolutely right with the song pick, because Nathan did say "fix". I remember so vividly because it's yet another moment that reminded me of Lost's Jack (he and Nathan are imho very much alike).

*grin* That makes me very happy to know.

You know I think that song would have been a more OBVIOUS choice after the last episode, but it was entirely awesome that it applied before it even screened and I was already at least 1/3rd of the way through it whilst waiting for that ep. It's amazing to see how emotive Milo and Adrian can be in their facial expressions and it just worked REALLY well with the music. And the transition effects just made it softer or more "in the moment" which is what I loved about doing that one.

I have WAY too much enthusiasm for this show, I know. It's really strange. But I'm compelled to do it all :D And I'm glad I got you hooked - or at at least steered in the right direction. Those writers are awesome *nods* (and so are your icons *goes to look*)

You were absolutely right with the song pick, because Nathan did say "fix". *happy dance* K so I DID remember right! Just another "Julie picks something up from Heroes b4 it screens" again. Oh, hey, does this mean I'm like Isaac now (ie. creatively picking up ( ... )

Thanks! Yeah, and afterwards I kept going "Oh I didn't put in that, or that, or that" There's just too much Petrelli love to fit into one little video *nods* They ARE awesome together.

This was great. The Coldplay song (which I love BTW) worked well with the caps, and you nailed many of best moments. The Petrelli brothers had me hooked from day 1 - and it keeps getting more and more complex. Heh, even Nathan calls it "dysfunctional" in the last ep. I'll be watching out for more of your stuff, esp. with those hints of bigger, badder and better twists to come. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you :D I seem to be making rather good calls with the songs lately, someone always loves them as much as me! hehe. The brothers have had me hooked from day 1 also, and I'm glad that everyone can squeal over my favourite moments with me.

I really appreciate your comment. *hugz* And I'm sure I won't be stopping anytime soon with the vids. Always every new ep provides new inspiration, and definately there is going to be some more great moments on this awesome show.
