I can't stop watching it!

I mean, I had a feeling Tachyon would be involved in saving the day somehow but I didn't know it would be this cool. I love how they merged the seperate video styles together.

Okay I'm done.

*whistle*

The building seems more, um,... curvvy Might not be the same one

That's what I thought too. If you look at the building in the video the spaces between the windows going down are equal in height and width. But the spaces between the windows at the LA Sheraton going down the building are not equal in width or height. The spaces get a little bit taller.

Hope I'm making sense.[/img]

Worth coming out of lurkage for!

This ought to delate the OpHeads a little bit. Go team Tachyon!

PS Tach, are we still on for next Saturday?

I'm sorry for being ridiculously stupid, but I hope you guys can help me.

Sooo how did this all go down?

Presumably Bree watched all the tachyon/brother/opahid videos. Then she formulated a plan with tachyon and brother, maybe?

It seems unclear if she told Jonas or not.

She hugs daniel goodbye and voices the plan to him in a whisper. Jonas films. Then Tachyon was there, and was able to get the flash bomb or whatever that was in there. So when Tachyon wrote "for a girl that bowled 112 that's a pretty good shot" she was speaking of herself, right?

Then she said "no wait" before or after the "bomb" went off, and was able to get out and run up to the roof where presumably brother has a helicopter or something for her.

Is that correct?

There's always the possibility this was posted by Ophahid and not Jonas, right? Like couldn't it turn out that he was the next one captured and they had his camera? Or, he could have handed it off to someone. Hell, op coulda recaptured them all (though it's highly unlikely of course).

Is this the hotel from Gemma Part IV?

No, different hotel. The Gemma IV hotel was the LAX Hilton on Century Blvd...right next to LAX.

That said, this was a BADASS video. Great music, cool cinematography, slick costumes for Lucy and her Order goons and nice editing. My only quibble is that they didn't show Bree running out of the elevator, but then again, the stairs sequence at the end provides enough suspense.

Sorry, I haven't read all of these comments -- I have to go to bed -- but seriously, this video means we DEFINITELY have to stop doubting the Creators!

THIS WAS THE BEST VID EVER!!!!!!

He did have something in his hand. He looked down at it when Bree started up the stairs.

Tachyon has helped them before...Daniel mentioned her telling him about the tracking device on his car...which is why they abandoned it.

You pretty much got it covered.

I must of missed that somewhere about Daniel getting help from Tachyon before. Was that private communication?

BTW, the building is NOT the Sheraton.

I know this building...I've seen it a million times. I'm working on it...

Thanks for checking that out. I am so curious as to what that might be, I am guessing his cell phone, but why would he need to pull that out and while he is being chased by the order, would he need to check for messages????

tilt

Edit to say it just could be another flash or smoke bomb, in case they need it to stall for time. He being sighted from the go would be the most likely to hold unto that. Jonas having the camera to document things would not have clear sight or the free hand....

Might be thinking too much now... But it would explain the get away for them all.

About the whole camera thing... do you think maybe it's possible the creators just shot it that way to get a better shot?

After rewatching that part over and over again, i think he is holdng the blindfold he had on since whatever it is seems to be black. Why he still has it i don't know?
