Thanks!

RE: DivX watermark: It's in my source material. Is it possible to remove it anyway? The DVDs aren't out yet, so ripping the material from DVD and encoding it myself isn't an option. Oh, wait...

*goes off to look at re-encoded clips*

Okay, it's not in the re-encoded clips I'm using for the final version, so never mind. :-)

Re: bit of sky (heh... that sounds... almost poetic. *g*) Yeah, I noticed that it's too long, too - the problem is, the instrumental bridge at that point is too long for such a quiet clip, but on the other hand, I really like the narrative aspect of Sam falling down to look up at the sky and then starting to laugh at that point... so I'm not sure there's anything I can do here. I could try to put the titles there, perhaps - overlay them over the sky shot. Will try.

Re: naked girl. Hmm. I don't see anything wrong with that bit at the moment, but then, I'm re-editing the entire vid with re-encoded clips now, anyway, so we'll see if I end up with the same or something slightly different this time.

Re: "let's roll the dice..." - works for me (and, I hope, for people who know the show) because that moment is the emotional climax of the entire show. It seems right to dwell on it just a little longer. Will keep your comments in mind when re-editing, though.

Re: "Don't wanna die" - that's right, you don't know the context. ;-) (Sorry, channeling Methos-meeting-fake!Methos there for a moment. *g*) The context of that bit is that the protagonist has just survived a situation where he could have been shot, and at the same time failed to emerge from another, on-going situation that could kill him, so he's both been spared, for the moment, and still is in continuing danger of losing his life. Hence that is a fitting clip for that line, at least IMO.
