Oh, wow, I love this! I adore the way you've connected all these sources by finding moments of similar action -- shooting, fighting, flying -- and I love the progression over the course of the vid: we see women shrieking at the beginning, but by the end they're so determined and competent under even the most dire circumstances (Sarah Connor! Ripley! Scully!). And as Laura and others have said, I LOVE that they are their own supermen: they are the ones they've been waiting for. That is maybe my favorite part. Well, that and how many shots you've managed to find of women together, not just alone or with men. (Uhura and Chapel! ♥) Um. Possibly I have a lot of favorite parts! But only because THIS VID IS SO AWESOME.

I have been so touched by the reaction to this vid. One of the trickiest parts was bridging the gap between the easily mocked early source and the awesomeness of women in the later source. I came across these little scenes of women having fun together and that helped give me the sense of progression I wanted.
