Beautiful!! I really like the Luke POV in here and how well your narrative flows.

[vehemently]

This was great. I really enjoyed it.

[pearwaldorf]

Oh this was lovely. My favorite Festivid this year!

[skywaterblue]

Love the matching of the lyrics and Luke pulling his lightsaber for the first time.

[leanwellback]

Oh, this is lovely! The pacing is really great, the narrative flows very nicely and I love the use of that silence on the confrontation with Vader. Ending it with that shot of Luke looking out across Tattooine was such a great choice, too.

[lithiumdoll]

Very lovely!

[glitteryv]

Very evocative and introspective. The song choice was wonderful too. Watching this gave me Star Wars feelings to the max. :D!

This was fantastic.

There were some great moments in here, like Han saving frozen Luke going to Han frozen himself, and the final shots with the fire leading to the suns and a return to the boy who had no idea what his future was about to become.

Awesome choice of music. I love how it starts with the on-off text and Luke playing with the model.

[china_shop]

Ohhh, beautifully done! *applauds wildly*

LUKE FEELINGS. YOU HAVE GIVEN ME SO MANY LUKE FEELINGS I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH THEM.

Oh, this is gorgeous. What a sad and sweet tribute to Luke.

Oh my god, that was beautiful and amazing. Such a beautiful character study, such a good job showing what's going on in Luke's head, how he relates to other people, it's just so wonderful.

Visually, I loved the clips of luke jumping off the plank and then leia choking jabba, i noticed it the second time through and it just made me catch my breath, wow.

[velocitygrass]

Beautiful look at Luke through the years.

[echan]

OMG this is amazing. The scope is epic, covering the whole long story, but the focus is very tight on Luke and that gives it such a unified feeling, I normally have a harder time with vids that show things out of time sequence but in this vid everything was so clear, it was all about how Luke experienced things and how he reacted and I am so out of words but this was amazing.

This was so great! The music and the scenes just go together so well. It creates this really great mood. It's almost melancholy, but happier. Watching this made me rewatch the original trilogy.
