Great vid! It has a nice rhythm to it. :-)

I'm glad you could finally make a Captain America vid.

[giandujakiss]

Thanks! Yeah, I'm still hoping someone else will make Adventures in Solitude, but for this one, the lyrics were too on the nose to pass up :-).

[tehlime]

Oh well now someone needs to made that vid STAT because that song choice sounds AMAZING.

[giandujakiss]

IKR??!? I had a post a while back begging someone to make me a Steve/Bucky vid to that song - although to be fair, probably the song would be best served after Cap 3, when we have more footage.

This is great! I love the shield transition to Bucky's face especially and think you handled the shifting character focus(es) extremely well.

[giandujakiss]

Thanks! Yeah, the shifting focuses were an issue - partly because of how I wanted to match the lyrics, and partly because there's so much more Steve footage than Bucky footage. I'm glad you liked how it came out!

Definitely not a song choice I would've thought of, but you made it fit well. At first I thought "I'm useless, but not for long" with Bucky was funny, but then you think of how they would've seen him as useless until they turned him into their tool, and it gets super creepy.

And while the Cap movies are about good triumphing over evil and the tone of the song wouldn't seem to match, there is a huge undercurrent of sadness in them as well. Steve lost his entire life and woke up in pretty much a totally foreign world 70 years later, and while he seems to be starting to cope with it, I couldn't help but notice at the end of the movie he wasn't even fighting Bucky and seemed to have a death wish. Which I couldn't blame him for, because his life would be depressing as hell.

And obviously I don't even need to get into the shittiness of Bucky's life, so yes, the song choice was different, but it a very good way.

but then you think of how they would've seen him as useless until they turned him into their tool, and it gets super creepy.

Hee, yes, that's exactly the mood I was going for- I and I figured the refrain of "the future is coming on" (which changes to "my future is coming on") worked as foreboding for both of them. I'm so glad I could make the song choice work for you!

DAMN this has a beautiful flow to it! Your cutting and clip choice is spot on, and the way you twisted the repeating chorus, especially the "I'm happy" lyrics, is a complete gut-punch. The ending, with Bucky's storyline rewinding to the past, only to transition to him at the Smithsonian was perfect, and again, the whole "my future is coming on" lyric sets are so well chosen. This whole vid is fantastic, I completely love it!

[giandujakiss]

Thank you so much!! The whole "future is coming on" thing seemed so perfect for this source, I couldn't resist vidding it - I'm glad the clip choices worked for you!

Cool! :D
