Wistful and gorgeous.
Thank you.

[lim.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! Thank *you*.

Absolutely beautiful. Your choice of song and clips fit the mood of the episode perfectly. I particularly loved the John-centric feel to it.

Gorgeous.

I'm glad you liked it. Thank you!

Yay, you posted! This vid still makes me cry and cry, but I know--I KNOW--that John will NEVER LEAVE ATLANTIS AGAIN because he HAS learned. He will never ever let her go again.

[lim.livejournal.com]

Never let her go omfg. *flails*

Oh, I love this. I especially like the clip of the Athosian forehead touch corresponding with the last phrase of "Change your heart, look around you" because this instance was different from the previous times Teyla had to signal John to respond; for the first time, he initiated it and really felt it. I also love the last clip of the wormhole superimposed on the image of Atlantis.

BTW, I just visited your site to see what else I've missed and found that the link to the .divx file of "Mission Report" is broken.

I'm glad you like it and oh, hey sorry about that file. I must have deleted it by accident when I was cleaning out my folders. It's fixed now. Thanks for telling me!

Ohmigod, I love everything, every vid you've ever done. They're always so evocative, so layered and shaded that even after I think I've figured it out, there's more stuff to feel. happy sigh

Such praise! It's too much. My head will swell so much I won't be able to fit it through the login page. :D

But thank you. I enjoyed making this; I'm glad you enjoyed watching it.

Loved this. I am repeating what has been said above but I particularly liked the John clips and the moment with Teyla. It has such a pervasive feeling of loss which really captures the whole mood of the episode and the pacing of the music is lovely.

I don't think I've seen a vid before which had no scenes with people talking. That really gives it the feel of a work in it's own right. Great job.

John looks so distressed in the Return! Oh. John!! *flails*

[aurora]

Oh. This was amazing and bittersweet.

[lim.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :) I'm really pleased you liked it.

[julia-here.livejournal.com]

Cool. Seriously, seriously cool.

Have to clean my monitor and watch it again, though.

Julia, working on the hygeine of the G5 workstation is hard

*waves*

Hello, you!

[julia-here.livejournal.com]

Waves.

Howdy!

I'm better at commenting when I'm supposed to be doing hard physical work in the fresh air!

Julia, wicked

[rustler.livejournal.com]

Aw, lovely! Perfect song, just the right mood.

[lim.livejournal.com]

:) Thank you.

[steammmpunk.livejournal.com]

This is utterly gorgeous and longing. Love the choice of music and clips (and the to be continued, because it's so not the end). Thank you.

[lim.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you liked it. Ta. :)

I just sat and watched that little section over and over, oh god! John! When he steps forward to say goodbye to Teyla! His home is gone. I just... I can't even DEAL with that. You Ancient bastards! *shakes fist*

[teenygozer.livejournal.com]

It's always an event when you post a new vid; I then find myself watching it over & over, gaining new meaning each time I re-view it.

MUST GO VIEW IT AGAIN NOW!

[lim.livejournal.com]

\o/

I'm in a vidding mood. Hopefully I get some of my others finished this weekend. *hopes*

Everything meshes together so well that it's a single thing - not two things stitched together. I watched it and thought not "oh, that was timed nicely," but "yes."

And I can't find the words to say this correctly (or very coherently, either). Just - beautiful.

[lim.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Thank you!

[titc.livejournal.com]

Wow. Beautiful & wistful! ♥

[lim.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :) I'm glad you liked it.

I love the tone and the editing reminds me of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which I love, so you can’t go wrong there. The extreme prettiness is lovely.

[lim.livejournal.com]

I *think* this song is IN that film. I don't know if it's this version. I can't remember - it's a long time since I saw it - but I think it is. So, good catch!

:D

[kiki-miserychic.livejournal.com]

It's at the end. I think it's this version too. :)

[the-oscar-cat.livejournal.com]

I really loved it - so beautiful, and dreamlike - actually like waking up from a dream, and finally knowing what needs to happen. So a good fit. ;)

I'm glad you liked it. Thank you!

[kahaniyan.livejournal.com]

This was really lovely. Thank you!

[lim.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! :D
