aww rats...I thought someone said that there was going to be lots of hidden stuff right from the start! oh well...haha...will keep watching...I did like the vid, tho. :)
I think there are clues in this video that may lead to something big. I suppose it's too early to speculate yet, but here's a short list:
  • two people fighting - maybe they were caught on camera and will come after Kate?
    Stick figure (reminiscent of Maddison Atkins) Man in black hat wearing shades then not wearing shades, then wearing shades takes the girls heart, throws it on the ground stomps on it, breaking it, then she turns it into wings and flys off.
I could get into analyzing other elements also, but I think it may be premature. I'd like to see more from Kate first. I wish I knew how to download vids from Bebo, I'd run this through my editing software to analyze it.
Definately id say that kates got something on her mind and shes expressing she wants to fly away from it all but she cant decide if she wants to stay and take it face on (fight) or fly away and let it all glide past her.(flight) Running away from problems.

The title "Fight or Flight" is an excellent and clever into title. It foreshadows the decision is will have to make not unlike Bree; will she fight the Order, or run from it?

As for people being dissapointed... I'm not really sure what you guys expected. It's an intro piece. Remember how Bree's first 2 videos weren't blogs? Just testing out the waters. And it makes sense for Kate's first video to be an art piece- it segways into her begining to make videos. I'm sure within 1 or 2 videos we'll meet Kate and get into it, but don't expect to be jumping right into action and puzzles.

Also,

Obviously not
I'm pretty certain that was somebody editing the wiki in a joking or mocking way. "Arc Repitition Prevails"? Pretty obvious it was a person poking fun at the fact that they expect this to be a LG carbon copy.

Anyways, looking forward to seeing how this turns out :) I bet the next video will either be a second art piece, or a blog to thank people on their comments/explaining her piece.

I was one of the disappointed ones, but I've been thinking about it a bit more and I think you have a good point sidewalkflight, and someone said its like opening credits which I think is a kind of cool way to look at it. I think I was mainly disappointed in the fact that I'd been waiting all day and it was uploaded just before midnight, pretty much down to the last minute of the day it was meant to debut. I thought because it's an English spin-off it would air in our daytime and not the Americans daytime. I'm not making a regular habit of staying up/in till midnight to wait for a video.

As for the pigeons, they could be a nod to madison etc, im not disregarding that, but given the title has the word flight in it and it seems to be about flying away from her problems, then pigeons would be the easiest bird to capture on film in London, cos there are millions of them.

I liked it. We've all gotten so caught up in clues and puzzles and races to save that we've kind of forgotten why most of us got interested in LG in the first place--the people! This was a nice way to bring the focus back to the characters and to remind us that developing these characters as people we're invested in is the most important part of the story.
Also, the song rocked. I thought the way the lyrics coincided with certain images was very thoughtful--awesome!

It was a really cool video. I liked it.

I don't like the production or whatever they are photos. They make it seem like it's going to be an online sitcom. All preppy and fake smiling.

Wonder if that's a decision Kate is facing in her personal life? Fight or flight I mean.
Though people are bring up "fighting or flying" from the Order, I got the impression that this video implied a decision in a relationship. And, it appears she chose flight, though not in the sense of running away. Instead she chose to "fly" or, lift herself higher.

actually, the video title is "Fight AND Flight." so, its a play on "fight or flight". does that mean she will have to fight AND flee?

No the recording shows the 2 guys fighting and perhaps one ran off. But also it means she could of had a fight with a loved one and is now avoiding it? Or raiseing above it? Nice catch by the way

Totally did not catch that.

Hm. I guess that changes my theory. But I still think it's for sure a foreshadowing.
