Becca. Becca, wow. First I got goosebumps, and then the tears came. This is so beautiful.

[musesfool]

This is fantastic. I cried through the whole thing.

[cathexys]

Wow, that was...just wow!!!

*off to cry*

[just_ann_now]

Can't type, crying

[dar_vidder]

Wow, this really packed a punch. Amazing job!

[jetpack_monkey]

So I have tears streaming down my face right now. Such a rich vid, full of emotion. Thank you.

[seekingferret]

This is really great.

[tassosss]

Oh my. This is so so beautiful.

[sweetestdrain]

I should have heeded the "Leia vid" warning and not watched this while on my period. Beautiful and I am a snotty mess.

[thisbluespirit]

This is beautiful!

[purple_smurf]

All the tears. This was amazing. I’m going to watch it again.

[sasha_feather]

Wow. This is so moving and masterful. Great job.

[yourlibrarian]

Marvelous. I especially loved the end when we come around to Rey's POV and Leia passes it on. Also loved the credits scene (which I guess doesn't get said often?)

[chaila]

IT'S STILL SO RUDE. And so, so good. I can't even praise specific parts because it's all just such a perfect, effective whole, such connections through the years and relationships, such a good tying together of the old movies and the new, such emotional resonance. I lose it completely at the end with passing the torch of the resistance to Rey. IT'S JUST SO RUDE BECKA.

[lunabee34]

Oh, wow. That was amazing. I love that Leia passes the torch to Rey at the end. Beautiful.

[amalthia]

lovely vid.

[caramarie]

This is so lovely and full of love. And I cried too ♥

[kiriel123]

That was GORGEOUS. So well done. I loved the progression through time, and the song choice was perfect.

[starlady]

Well I started crying halfway through and I still am. This is the first time I really felt Han's death, because it was so clearly foreshadowed in the movie; you made it real. And you brought home how Leia was born into a struggle that she spent her whole life fighting, and that it took almost everything from her, but she never gave up. Really wonderful.

[deird1]

This was wonderful. Thank you.

[muccamukk]

Incredible. I especially love the connection with Rey woven through.

[niyalune]

Oh, that was utterly gorgeous. I loved how you used overlays, especially at 1:31 with Luke and Leia's hologram message.

[genarti]

Oh man, this is beautiful in so many ways. So very well done.

[scintilla10]

Oh gosh, I'm crying. This is beautiful.

[bessyboo]

I just want you to know that I straight-up sobbed through the viewing of this at the WisCon Vid Party. Like, loudly enough that multiple people were like, "yeah I heard you sobbing at that one and was like 'that must be Bess'" during the intermission XD This was RUDE and I feel DIRECTLY TARGETED and I'm going to watch it approximately 238 more times and sob some more <333
