BSG Vidlet: I Want to be Evil

[beccatoria]

Here's my eighth response to thearchive2's challenges!

Title: I Want to be Evil
Video: Battlestar Galactica (2003)
Audio: I Want to be Evil - Eartha Kitt
Summary: Tory wants to know how big a difference Laura sees between them; because she doesn't see much of one at all.
Editor's Notes: My thanks to cyborganize for the beta and for being the mad genius behind thearchive2 and to its cylontastic vid-enabling denizens. This is in response to thearchive2's eighth challenge: microscopic.

Okay, I can't get imeem on my work computer, but I CANNOT WAIT to watch this.

I'm eager to lose

EHhhe, I love Tory and Tory loves Laura. I also love your vid because it's as much about Tory as it is about Laura because so much of Tory is about Laura. Great use of the lyrics and the music. The connections are entirely awesome. I especially like how at 1:09 Tory's face stands out over Three's body.

They are the baby stealing and airlocking OTP.

This is awesome. i love the Roslin/Tory parallels.

Tory/Laura/Airlock OT3! I can't stop watching this. The parallels are really excellent. Love the pairing of "to see my partner's face" with Laura turning her back to Tory at 0:55, since so much of Tory's behavior is attention-seeking (and Laura-centric).

On a completely superficial note - highly approve of all of the beautiful Tory hair shots.

Hurrah for a Tori vid with exceptionally brilliant choice of music! Only yesterday I was wondering why there are so many fanvids in the world with boring and/or bad songs and then you come along with this perl! Brilliant! :)

This pairing is not my favourite, but.. OH MY GODS!! Your video is fantastic! I like it very much ^^ Good job!!

Great vid. One of my favorite things about Season 4 was EvilTory. I found her sexy as hell. But then I like my women evil.

This is very awesome! Really deft use of flashbacks and intercutting their scenes to make the connections really come through. I especially like the connections that aren't apparent until you make them apparent in this vid! The comparison between Roslin and the prisoners and Tory on the basestar was one I would never have thought of, but it's awesome.

Becka, I am such a bad cylon for not leaving feedback! Don't put me out the airlock! I love this very very much. Did Julie tell you my comment after she showed me the beta version? All About Eve with cylons! All About Eve is one of my favourite films, and this is one of my favourite vids. I love Tory and her cylon-embracing evil! I love her learning from and surpassing of Laura! I love you for making this vid!

I watched this a bit ago (via Nicole's rec) but I lost the link to comment.

I really loved this. I'd thought this song could work for Tory or maybe BSG women when I heard it (though a remix I think) a while back. I love the parallel's between Tory and Roslin, I hadn't consciously noticed many, and loved how you worked Tory wanting to be like Rosiln as a motivation for her actions into it.
