Wow. Thank you so much. This is absolutely fantastic, and it's so perfectly what I was looking for. Just, the music! It's brilliant! And I love, so much, how you cut between the 2 movies, and the whole theme of whether it was worth it. The difference between Sarah in the 1st movie and the 2nd movie and why she changed was just shown so well. And in the movies I loved Dyson and how he died, and in your vid it was so powerful, and just wow. I can't even say how perfect this was! Really, thank you for this brilliant gift.

Oh, thank you! The song really spoke Sarah to me, and I'm so glad that it came together for you. Really, I'm just ever so glad that you like it. *dances happy dance of joy*

Oh! Well that is just totally awesome, and I love it and I love her, and it all worked so perfectly. ::loves::

[cherry]

Thank you!

[rhivolution]

I love the Sarah Connor of the first two films, and it's so good to see her character explored so well--lovely!

[cherry]

Thank you!

[krickets]

Wow, Sarah Connor was even more awesome than I remembered.

[cherry]

Sarah Connor is pretty much the bee's knees.

Man, I love Sarah Connor, and this is awesome.

[cherry]

Sarah Connor is pretty amazing.

I'm so glad you liked the vid -- thank you.

God, Linda Hamilton was awesome. Thanks for the gorgeous reminder.

[cherry]

Linda Hamilton did such an excellent job with such an awesome character. I'm so glad you liked it.

Oh, vidder, I could kiss you! This is just. I can't even. GAH, I HAVE LOST MY WORDS. Seriously, this is amazing and I want to hug it to my chest for always because yes. This just captures so much of what I love about these films and especially about Sarah, but I adore what you did with Miles Dyson as part of the greater theme too. So much love.

[cherry]

Thank you ever so much. I am so very glad that it manages to capture even some part of something you love so much.

[scaramouche]

Wow, this video really drives home the stark changes between who Sarah used to be, who she became in the end, and what she lost in the transition. Goosebumps.

[cherry]

Thank you ever so much.

I've enjoyed Lena Hadley as Sarah so much, but damn, Linda Hamilton did lay down some impressive ground work!

This is a captivating character study of Sarah and her journey from the moment the Reese boy shows up to the days of raising the Connor boy. Great use of clips from both movies with some good editing. Wonderful job!

[cherry]

Lena Hadley sure had some impressive shoes to fill -- and though I love all Sarahs, there will always be at least a part of me for which Linda Hamilton is The Sarah Connor.

Thank you so much for watching.

[eruthros]

This is so great! You pretty much had me at Linda Hamilton doing pull-ups on the beat at the beginning, and it just continued great from there.

[cherry]

Thank you ever so much!

[franzeska]

Sarah Connor! Yes!

[cherry]

Sarah Connor! \o/

[sasha_feather]

Wow, great music and great vid! I love Sarah Connor, she is the boss. What an awesome vid.

[cherry]

Thank you ever so much!

[ghost_lingering]

So great! Definitely a vid I'm going to rewatch many times. *g*

[cherry]

Thank you kindly.

[thingswithwings]

this is beautiful - what a great song for Sarah Connor, and you've turned it into a lovely character study. I love the way you highlight the changes from the first film to the second - you have some really beautiful intercutting going on there. Love it.

[cherry]

Thank you! The song just really spoke Sarah Connor to me, and I'm so glad it came together for you.

[marina]

Wow, this is such an awesome video, and I've never even seen the movies.

[cherry]

Wow. That is a high compliment indeed -- thank you.

[copracat]

Fantastic vid.

[cherry]

Thank you.

[laurashapiro]

Really powerful.

[cherry]

Thank you, hon.

[futuransky]

Wow. What an amazing paeon to the iconography of Sarah Connor. I was riveted from the first shot, I got chills again and again and again... (Superficially I also really enjoyed all the shots of her arms. Ahem.)

[cherry]

Sarah Connor is amazing, and epic. I'm so glad I managed to capture some of her journey for you.

Thanks so much!

I have apparently forgotten entirely to comment on this but this is absolutely beautiful. T2 is one of my favourite movies, has been ever since I was a kid back in the day and I still adore Sarah Connor. And I cannot help but love the images when I hear I can say I hope it will be worth what I give up <3
