That was brilliant. :-)

Just as much fun as the original, I really look forward to watching it again (and again).

Percy, you pimp!

I have never seen this adaptation, but now I must!

[zeborah]

It's my absolutely favourite adaptation, and this vid does it perfect justice.

[astrothsknot]

Fantastic - this is my fave version and your vid is perfect

[isweedan]

I am SO DELIGHTED by this <3333

[eruthros]

I really enjoyed this!

[fairestcat]

This is fantastic! I would never have expected that song choice to work so perfectly.

[were_duck]

This is AWESOME, I enjoyed the hell out of it!

[bowdlerized]

Nice! I love the moment where Percy takes his snuff. :D

[skygiants]

I AM GOING TO WATCH THIS SO MANY TIMES. I love it all, but the best part is Chauvelin's sulky and affronted faces!

[actiaslunaris]

Oh, ho, ho, this is complete genius. What a great song choice, and I love how you set all those dancing scenes to it.

[thingswithwings]

This was fun! :D

[echan]

Oh this was scandalously fun! I would have never thought of this song/source combination, but you really made it work. The fencing bit was my favorite part, just exquisite.

I never saw this version of the SP but that was quite a cast! Fun look at a sassy story.

[livrelibre]

Awesome!

[china_shop]

Hee! Fantastic -- I love how you interpreted the lyrics! So much fun!

[leyna]

Brilliant capture of just how much fun that version is! Excellent editing, inspired song choice. I loved the dancing and fighting sequences, and marvellous use of Percy's twit persona and cheeky sense of humour.

This song! This movie! OMG! I'm having flashbacks of me at 18 (love the Pimpernel series and everything it contains). You've completely pwned the bratty-ness of the movie's crazy OT3.

So much FTW ♥

I have no idea who any of these characters are, but that doesn't stop me from loving this. Jane Seymour's huge hair! And the dark haired guy, there's something about him that keeps making me laugh.

(... okay, so I just looked up the movie on wikipedia and am now flailing because it's GANDOLF/MAGNETO. That makes this a million times better and now I need to see this movie.)
