Leonard Nimoy Q&A Session at Fan Expo 2009 in Toronto - Part 3 of 4
I was going through my channel and realized that I never finished uploading these videos.
Better late than never, right?

The footage regarding black holes came from a BBC documentary. The only clip that appears still to be available is here:

This latest spree of YT takedowns is most disturbing. TruthSurge, C0nc0rdance, and now TFoot most recently... I don't know what's going on upstairs, but I really hope this is temporary and reflective of only a few rotten apples going off the rails, and not something more systemic...
In any case, C0nc0rdance is one of my most favourite youtubers, and I really hope he hasn't left for good (or will at least move to another media site if he doesn't return here). The flagging of his videos I found especially infuriating... I mean they are purely educational, and so level-headed and calmly presented, with so much research and care put into their content... I really can't understand who could watch them and think a flag was legit...
So, in honour of his channel, I've decided to mirror one of my favourite of his vids. This one wasn't one of the flagged ones (I missed grabbing those before they went down), but it pretty much sums up how science works in a nutshell. And I like stats...

Also, I think it should be a given that this video elicits one big "SPOILER ALERT!" LOL. :D
Well...here it is. After both mentally conceptualizing and physically working on it for so long, it feels great to finally have it finished and out there for fellow fans to see. And rest assured, that is indeed what this is all about. This is 100%, through and through, a video by a fan, for the fans. One can only hope that we are all able to come together and reminisce, appreciate, and above all, celebrate the monumental achievements of the Harry Potter series.
As one will be able to tell, this doesn't really fit the typical "AMV style" of such projects. While I definitely considered going that route, I really wanted to work in plot, sequentiality, structure, and select pieces from all 8 scores. As such, I felt that this "narrative" approach was the best way to go about accomplishing all of these tasks. As mentioned in the first teaser, we really do follow a "prologue -- movies 1 - 8 -- epilogue" format here.
Creating this tribute was easily one of the most simultaneously rewarding and draining things I've ever done. Most of the time, it absolutely killed me to not be able to include specific bits and moments in it. I'm sure such choices will be polarizing (believe me, I sympathize - some of my favorite moments had to be scrapped as well), but I was working towards creating somewhat of a narrative flow that established fans could follow, and as a result, omissions were necessary. Of course, one also has to consider the ridiculousness of trying to cram over 16 hours of footage into 15, coherent minutes. This was my personal justification... ;)
I feel no shame in admitting that tears, both happy and sad, were shed during the making of this tribute. This series, both books and films, has captured me in a way that I'm sure many others have felt as well, and as such, I sincerely hope that all Harry Potter fans out there enjoy watching it just as much as I did making it.
To sum up this very long description, I'd just like to thank the exceptional team that has been behind bringing Harry Potter to the big screen, and dedicate this video to all involved in the decade-long production. And to reiterate, this tribute is also dedicated to all fans of the series. It is via our admiration that the magic will forever live on...
