Stay Alive | The Marauders

[@AnneSoshi]

3:58-4:07 i will never know joy in my life ever again

[@s.sh.ne.]

AnneSoshi same my parents never see me cry and I almost cried

[@chrysalivsm]

[@nyxloc]

2:07 to 2:09 kills me. Because you know that Remus despises that part of himself and turns into that every month. When in reality, you see at 2:09, he's just a boy.

[@VioletRaven.]

Oh Lordy. This is absolutely beautiful. The moment where Sirius is crying at James and Lily's grave was especially emotional and got me all choked up. Fantastic work!

[@hurleybird]

well this was a LOT. i'll get back to you after i can see through my tears

[@hurleybird]

i'm gonna legally marry this video

[@cynicalromantic261]

Ok: The opening shots that you used to set up the story (because you have ofc with your talent told a story in 4 and a half minutes) are so beautiful and poignant stop. And then how you introduced James and Remus and Sirius with the shots of something that defines them. Was that a small hint of the possible Remus/Lily love story at the start because IM BYE??? The way you showed that constant threat of death and war with all the shots of like the destroyed tents and the dark mark ofc The happy stuff THE HAPPY STUFF KILL ME HANNAH WHY DON'T YOU FUCKIN DIE Then the shots of them at the platform and especially Sirius and Remus faces, the two who truly loved Hogwarts the most because it was their scape from their miserable home lives and the hint of something new and fresh THE JAMES AND LILY BEING CUTE AND HAVING FUN STUFF NO THANKS DEVIL (also i want to mention the fucking use of cinematography not just from the HP films but out with them and making it all fee like it belongs) And then, THEN, the frantic build up with the repeated "dawn is coming open your eyes" like they're still in the dark and need to open their eyes to it and just how you show the events of that fateful halloween night (that scream is going to haunt me forever i hate you for it). I already shouted at you for 3:34 and how it cuts to black with Lily and Voldemort so I hope you've thought about the consequences of your actions tbh cause that was rude as fuck SIRUS AT THIER GRAVE FUCK YOU IM FUCKING CRYING I HATE YOU FOR DOING THIS TO ME And then that ending, Harry literally being the dawn, the goodness that came out of all that darkness and tragedy and made all the suffering more bearable I'm actually a mess tbh right now Hannah I need a moment (or a month) to recover. Also, I love that constant ticking in the background of the song especially at the start like it's ticking down to something (aka pain) and then how it ends with that as well, ticking down again but this time we know it ends happily (but that is just something I think is cool and ties this video beautifully) This is perfect, you achieved your goal of killing me, well done, i hate you

[@Hanneybean7]

this makes me cry ilysm

[@soniatsui7606]

And then they all died young before the age of 40

[@hurleybird]

so this fancast is nothing like mine but it's fucking perfection because it's YOURS and you fucking own it in a way that i haven't seen??? like this is beyond vidding to me, this is art. the way you created an atmosphere with all the shots of hogwarts interspersed with the shots of the actors was breathtaking to me, i could just watch this on loop forever. i am obsessed with the shots of things and how you used it to introduce the characters (james quidditch award, the weeping willow, the map etc). THE SHOT OF SNAPE IN THE CORRIDOR at :39 for some reason left me really shook???? The transition at 0:54 is fucking stunning. literally cannot get over some of these manips like????? the james lily part at 1:36 was so pure and beautiful my babies!!!!!!! and all of them boarding the train like!?!?!?!? seriously your manips are spectacular. The way you use cinematography of both the HP films and other movies is so wonderful, i am truly just blown away by it. and the way you transition into the start of the war with voldemort and the marauders all in pain (that scream at 3:04 WHO HURT YOU). and the cut to black with lily and voldemort honestly i am in fucking agony over this JUST COMPLETELY OVERWHELMED I HATE. and then sirius at james and lily’s grave…..i’m gonna need you to delete your account. THAT ENDING THO THAT GODDAMN ENDING. with it all coming full circle and harry being the product of all that they endured, harry being the reason it wasn’t all in vain. you know how much i agree with you on the marauders and you just showed all the joy and sorrow and love and everything that makes us drawn to them in one glorious moving piece of art. i know i’m always yelling at you but i mean this from the bottom of my heart, thank you for doing them complete justice. i love you and fuck you.

[@hurricanedrunk]

4:01 rare footage of me crying my soul out over this masterpiece. there's so much of you in this and it's so /important/. every single second of this video is passion and beauty and genius and i adore this wow fuck me up

[@witchorking]

hannah idk what to say only that this is so fucking beautiful and heartbreaking in every kind of way, i can totally see how much work you've put into this and this might be your best video yet???? you're just fucking fantastic and i love this so much i'm so emo rn

[@joelmilhem9322]

I love your casting for James and Lily!!! So much more accurate The video is awesome!

[@shadowflower93]

I was literally 3 seconds into this when I stopped everything, turned off the lights, and started the video over. I don't know how else to put into words just how important and beautiful this video was. Still sobbing too :'D

[@AmazingWingedGirl]

So, I don't usually comment on videos but this one really got to me. I think it's because first of all, ever since the Secret Life of Walter Mitty came out, this has been one of my favorite songs of all time. It's just so comforting to me and makes me feel warm inside, as does the Harry Potter series. Also, the Marauders era is just amazing and deserves its own movie or miniseries (I'm still a little salty we got Fantastic Beasts instead of the Marauders as a spinoff, but whatever) Anyway! I really love the way you combined fancasted clips with footage from the movies; it's virtually seamless and makes it all feel like one cohesive piece instead of a movie collage. I'm not usually a fan of clips set to music without voiceovers, but your video is definitely an exception because the way you edited and arranged the clips tells the story almost completely wordlessly and that in itself is a really huge feat to accomplish in my opinion. Some of my casting is different (I've always had Ben Barnes as Sirius too though, because god damn. :P), but I always love seeing other people's fancasts and yours is so good! I love your James. You explored relationships people often overlook too--Lily and Remus' friendship is so lovely and it's always interesting to see how people envision Snape and Lily interacting. Anyway, sorry this is so long and rambling! Basically this comment is one huge compliment because you deserve it. All in all this video just feels like coming home (although Sirius looking at the grave did rip my heart out, it's fine I'm fine I'm totally fine everything is a-ok). I also just want to add that I LOVE the video you linked to in your description. Like, I watch it all the time because it's absolutely flawless. Her videos have inspired me as well and if you've read this far and want to check out any of the Marauders videos I've made, it would really mean the world to me

[@aimanfatima9256]

I’ve been watching this for I don’t know what time for two days straight and Remuss scream still gets me every time. And when the Dawn is coming open your eyes thing start I’m just byee. And Siriuss smile is the death of me. And him crying at James and Lily’s grave got me sobbing.

[@catou121]

man the beginning of your description box. you had me in tears right there. i love what you wrote about them, definitely agreed! they hold a special place in my heart and i absolutely adore what you created! im a complete mess and bawling, that was so gorgeous! the transition from happy fragile times to the darkness swallowing them. fck man. i cant begin to write how much i loved this. thank you for creating this!

[@louielle13]

One of the most heartbraking five minutes in my life. Amazing, I'm crying

[@subm4rine]

i am crying actual real life tears. this is a fucking masterpiece and i'm just lost for words. fucking incredible

[@Anastasia-ys8qk]

This is actually one of the best edits I've ever seen 💛

[@eloha.v2506]

This I perfect... I love the maurauders era sm and this is just perfect

[@DreamyJuL]

Extremely beautiful, simply amazing. You made me cry. And I LOVE Elle as Lily

[@lilitifrock]

gosh hannah!!! i'm only watching this now, but... oh lord!!! i have never seen a fancast vid so bloody emotional and poetic, and so... pure!!! yes, that's definitely the word!! pure!! it's art!! you amaze me, every.fucking.time!!!!

[@aimanfatima9256]

Oh my FUCKKING GOD I LITERALLY GOT CHILLS WATCHING THIS

[@meeshell384]

This has been sitting in my "watch later" list since you uploaded. And then of course I forgot of its existence. Until today that is! What a gem this was to watch. So pure and magical. I love how you introduced all of the characters (especially for someone like me who isn't up on the dream casting). This was such a thrill to see as you moved through the stories of each of them and brought us right to the end (or the beginning some could argue). Thank you for this moving piece.

[@MrsJones-hz9wu]

I absolutely love this casting for James and the rest just perfect. You did an amazing job 👏 🙌 ❤ 💜 💙 💖

[@gabygal7]

Omg Hannah?!?!? Idek what to say this is truly beautiful!!!! I'm on my phone so forgive this poor comment but I am shooketh!!! Also that scream that faayza mentions in her comment too? I am dead 😭😫😭😫😭😫

[@AlexandriaMWitch]

I can't use any word to describe this. This is way too beautiful and I feel like if I comment on what I feel like it will end up as a big fat mess because that's just how I feel right now. I love that background ticking sound though. Really ads an edge to the sad song

[@aquarelle7472]

You're so talented and created an amazing atmosphere! And this song fits so well

[@cariad]

this is the best marauders era video i've ever watched.

[@bookdork1]

I had literal chills watching this. I love the castings and how you started off with symbols of each marauder and then a clip of each of them and then harry at the end and just this song in general, so beautiful, wonderful edit!

[@unwantedtrouble]

[@sophieg9176]

I've seen a lot of marauders video's, but this one will always be my favorite. It's truly beautiful
