Absolutely brilliant.
I'm envious of the demo editing skills. Doubt very much I'll ever get to that level.

It's not just plain demo editing, some of the bits required hacking into the data files and beating the client into submission.

Repeating my thanks from the Multimedia section.
It brought a tear to my eye to see Father Xmas "in game" again. Thank you.

That was an excellent video. And I snagged a screenshot of the CoH logo with the wreath for my new desktop background. :)

I actually dreamed of City of Heroes last night, which I believe was a first ever -- I blame the video. Bittersweet for sure.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.
And you made me cry. AGAIN. But in a good way. :)
(VERY nice touch with the night sky by the chalet... that was just the absolute right little detail there.)

This is beautiful. It made me feel like even though we can't access the world of CoH, it's still going on somewhere and from time to time we get to see bits of it like this. It makes me smile and cry at the same time...and I treasure each and every feeling that movies like this evoke. Thank you very much for keeping CoH alive for me :)

Thank you, Leandro!
"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" almost always made me cry in the past because I know the original film it appeared in and the circumstances when it was sung in the film ("Meet Me in St. Louis" as the family is moving away but leaving the married daughter behind).
You have now added a whole new layer of melancholy to the song - but I welcomed it.
Plus - you used the Whoville Christmas song from Grinch! Bravo!

I have said it everywhere else and even had to PM Angelus about it but this is one fine video. Envious of the smooth movements and execution here. Just love every bit of it. Actually included it in my newest blog to boot (http://thorsassassin.com/2012/12/24/city-of-heroes-still-online/) lol...
Humbled to be in there as well among friends and the Coh family! Thank you for keeping the City of Heroes spirit alive as well as bringing in some holiday cheer! The Chalet night sky at the end and the ski slope camera movement was my 2 favorites but I loved the humor as well!
No sadness here as I am still among my community, all smiles! Thank you again Angelus!

Thank you so much for the comments and including it in your blog! Everyone has been very kind in their responses to the video and I'm very glad to spread some holiday cheer. I miss being in game with everyone, but through the use of some awesome tools by Leandro and Codewalker I get to be home for the holidays. Anyone who is enjoying the videos that many of us are creating and would like to give it a try defiantly should! And anyone who would like to see their character in a video all that is required is a demo, sentinel extractor file, char file, or even a costume file. Many thanks and Merry Christmas CoH family!

That was the absolutely best Christmas gift I could have received with the exception of City being brought back. Thank you for sharing it with all of us and I hope that each one of you in the City of Heroes community has a wonderful Christmas and know that I as well as many others are thinking of you this day and each day to come. Merry Christmas City of Heroes/villians
