The Roslin vs. Baltar conflict was my favourite thread of the series, so I love the very concept of this first part of the vid, and its execution is fantastic, and that alone would make the vid brilliant. But then in the second and third acts, when you turn change the conflict into one against god and break through the fourth wall, that is truly awesome.

The repetition of that shot of Earth really sticks with me, turning what was presented in the episode as an uplifting moment into something sinister. And I think it's fantastic that right at the end there you found a use for RDM's glaring cameo in the coda.

It is such a brilliant vid!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback; that means a lot to me. I completely understand why you love the Roslin vs Baltar conflict. While it wasn't my absolute favourite thread, my absolute favourite was Roslin's struggles with religion and morality, which obviously encompassed her relationship with Baltar a lot, and it's such a fascinating and complex relationship - especially from HIS side, actually. Because she mostly just hates him a lot. :p

But I'm so, so, SO glad that the shift in gears (as layed out in the credits - when it shifts from Baltar to God who is really RDM) is coming across clearly.

Thank you again and I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
