Shameless squee...

Ok. So I'm a little bit excited by this...

Jim Beaver saw and COMMENTED on my Bobby Vid. A gal over on YT sent it to his face book and he commented by saying:

Okay, that may be the best fan vid I've ever seen. The editing and confluence of image and lyric is just amazing. You should be doing this for a living. Thank you. I'm really, really flattered.

And don't worry... I take "best fan vid I've even seen" with a grain of salt. Whenever someone says that my first thought it "Well you haven't seen many fan vids then"..*g*. However...The editing and confluence of image and lyric is just amazing. I will take because... damn! That's a nice thing to say. :)

confirmation is here plus some other nice comments I would never have seen with Erica informing me of this.

*bounces*

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTT!!!!! That is just such a gorgeous wonderful thing!!!!

*twirls you round* And a high compliment coming from someone who works in the industry.

Oh, that's fantastic! :D Go you!

You know, in general I don't approve of showing fan stuff to the 'talent'. We've all heard stories of actors being shown inappropriate material. But every once in a while I see something and think the actor featured would be flattered and I had that thought when I watched your vid.

I'm glad he got to see it and had such a warm response. You totally deserve it.

SQUEE!! OMG. That is AMAZING!! ♥ x 4938503498!!

JIM!!! <3 and such lovely, well-deserved feedback! I always get so shocked when I hear that actors/actresses have commented on fandom-y related things!

OUR FANDOM IS AWESOME. WE ARE SO SPOILED! :D

*TWIRLS YOU*

Whooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!!

I knew he'd love it if he saw it!!!!! (You may remember I said as much) but I never thought he'd actually see it!!!!!! Whooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

Normally you know I'm not a fan of mixing Us and Them, but It's such a wonderfully clear (and sweet) vid that I think anyone with a knowledge of the character would be likely to get it.

Of course I'm like "that's my vid! Wooooooo!!!" even though of
Course it's not really!!!! :D :D

[counteragent.livejournal.com]

Ikr?!? Most of the time I'm like oh god no but I thought this would be actor-approvable when I saw it, too.

[debbiel66.livejournal.com]

I am SOOOOO excited for you and so thrilled he has such good taste! &hearts

Off to watch said vid!

SO EXCITING EEEE!!!!

Also in funny semi-relatedness, I was just rewatching some Harper's Island with the audio commentary on, and everytime Jim Beaver came on they all yelled "Beaver!" lol.

YAYYAYAYYAYAYYY! HOW EXCITING! (I'm with the people up above: don't want the actors to notice us, except in THIS CASE. *g*)

[growyourwings.livejournal.com]

Yay for you! So very deserved.

[mlebayre.livejournal.com]

That is awesome!

[ash48.livejournal.com]

\o/ Now I'm even bouncier! :D

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Thanks hun! I am thrilled with the compliment - it felt like he's thought about it not just brushed it off.

\o/

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

Guess we'll never hear the end of this, will we. :)

That's the best kinds of comment you can get...

[amindaya.livejournal.com]

WHOOOOOOOOOOOO YEAHHHHHHH, that is the awesomest thing ever, the highest of compliments. I am super happy for you!!

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy for you!

*hugs*

[greyowl88.livejournal.com]

YAY!!!♥♥♥

[smilla02.livejournal.com]

That's amazing, bb - and a bit scary - but I'm happy JB saw that video.

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :D

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hi there. I'm with on that. I'm glad that he was embarrassed by it or anything. That was be awful... I like the of us keeping to ourselves and why I wouldn't have sent it to him myself. I was genuinely surprised when I heard he has respond. And pleased that he liked it.

Thanks sweetie. :)

[ash48.livejournal.com]

HEE!! wow... that's a lot of hearts! :D

And yes... I was totally shocked to hear he had actually watched - let alone responded. Though I think Jim is genuinely warm about fans and fan stuff. He came across that way when I saw him at a convention here is Aus. It's lovely that he took the time.

*twirls you back*

:D

[ash48.livejournal.com]

*glomps*

YES, yes... I do remember you saying that. And me too. I didn't actually think he'd see it. Or, if he did actually take the time to say anything about it.

And the mixing of Us and Them completely freaks me out too ... it's why the "fan" episodes made me all sorts of twitchy.

But I'm glad he took it as intended - as a homage to the character rather than anything else.

And of course it's your vid!! Wouldn't have been made without you hun... :D :D

*smish* Thanks again.

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Hee! *nods* he must have good taste.. tehe..

:D :D

[ash48.livejournal.com]

It is! \o/

Hee... "beaver"... how much flack would he have got for that surname over the years... :D :D
