Nikki! I love it! This is AMAZING! See this is what people really like editing skill and story telling. You videos are never just a flash in the pan they are always memorable and interesting.

I love the concept and you followed through with the story more than I have ever seen anyone do. You also explained it really well, like how Kate didn't go to jail and made up with her mom. I also really like how they kept remembering things from their past lives. Their second meeting was pretty cute. I kind of laughed when they had hot sex after just meeting, but Whateve's, I'm not complaining! I wish they would do that on the actual show!

It was really cool how both of them started going off the tracks until they both had it out and realized the truth about their past.

Very cool story. Awesome!

Oooh this was so awesome!!!! Firstly, awesome job on making such an amazing vid with Final Cut Pro b/c I found it rather confuzzling lol

I really loved the whole idea of this vid and my favourite bit was the whole "do you remember?" scene twas really powerful and made me go all cold

I loved how you had the storyline with Kate's mum too and the bit with the crackers aww!

Fantastic work!!

I just gonna quote my yTube comment:

Kat, Thanks for mention the "I remember part" that was my very fav. I've had this vid idea in my head since I saw the finale and that remember scene was what I based it all around. I'm glad you liked the "crackers" scene b/c I couldn't figure how to have them meet again. LOL that is what I came up with and wasn't sure if it was any good. So yay! As far as the Claire part...I was trying to hint at the fact that she was having the same memories as Jack and Kate and somehow found Kate b/c she wants to give her baby to her.

If I make a part 2 I will explain all that. I just didn't want to put "to be continued" unless I decided not to do it.

Yael, I'm so excited to see a comment from you again! Yours are always my fav! I'm really glad to hear you were able to follow the story so well b/c that is something I always worry about. And yay for hot JEX right! Haha!

Emma, Thanks! I know Final Cut is confusing!! I spent hours trying to fix some of the aspect ratios on there for some of the clips and just gave up b/c I was about to throw the computer on the ground. I will have to ask Kemper for help on the next one. But he's out of town. Thanks for your comment and beautiful vid pic!!

Mel, Yep you got it right! I was trying to hint that they had some memories but pushed them aside as being a dream until they got too overwhelming they had to admit that they were real.

This was SO amazing!!! Jate yay!!! I love how you had them meet, and how you had them remember. This was just incredibly well-done and beautiful.

Nikki, that was seriously the best AU ever!!! First, the story/concept was just out of this world... you took what every Jate fan would want to happen, and you made it happen. Then, the added twist of remembering... GAH!!! BRILLIANT!!! And not to mention, BEAUTIFULLY well executed! The scene manips and dialoge were flawless. And, the added bonus of the very end... OMG... I literally *burst* into tears! That was soooo awesome!!!!!!!!

Awesome vid, Nikki!!
Just the vid I've been wanting to watch ever since the season finale!
Everything was very well put together, all the AU scenes, the scenes they were remembering everything, how Jack and Kate met again.... and I just LOVED the "Do you remember???!!!" part!! Awesome!! And the ending with Claire??? Just perfect!!
Again, amazing vid, Nikki!!!!

Ooooo, a new Nikki vid! YAY!

This was really, really, lovely and sweet and flowy, and amazing. I totally loved this song, I looked up the lyrics and they were just beautiful to read. The song was just amazing for them, you used the lyrics so wonderfully, especially at "she's sick as a dog, her arms may fall off" you had Kate at the hospital with her sick mother.
Your audio choices were perfect for your storyline, it was a really awesome storyline, I was able to follow and be interested in very well. I loved your audio of "it never happened." from Jack and when Kate told him to "eat some crackers" aww, I loved the scene!

AWESOME NIKKI!

Thanks Kate! Its funny you looked up lyrics. I had to as well when making the vid b/c they are so bizarre I had to make sure I was hearing it right.

I ignored some of the stranger ones b/c I didn't know how to match them but some like the scene with her mother came in handy with the odd lyrics!
