(Also, holy crap, we are getting pretty close to season 4 and I am so ready it hurts)

watch this show if you haven't. - Zábava
The greatest show no one has seen were you don’t know if the two main characters are heroes or villains and you just don’t care
That "hello satan" when flint stands up is just fucking fantastic
I am sucker for symbolism and this, JUST THIS... So beautiful, the song, the words, the relationship between those two. I JUST CAN"T *breaks the repeat button *
Thank you
I should probably said this sooner, but I was too impressed with the video to form logical sentences xD You know, there's a quote "The devil doesn't come dressed in the red cape and pointy horns. He comes as everything you ever wished for" and it describes perfectly the relationship between those two.
At first in Silver opinion Flint was just the man most likely to get the gold, but then something changed and Silver got more than he bargained for - power. He finally mattered; people started to see him for what he really was (not a terrible cook, not a thief, not some ordinary John) - a man with mind so powerful, who could bend people to his will with a few well-thought words. And maybe, I think, that was exactly what Silver craved deep in his bones, to finally, finally not be underestimated. And that's exactly what Flint gave him.
On the other hand - Silver was to Flint what he needed most (in season 3 especially), having lost his lovers, friends, companions and a quartermaster. Just like was said in the 3x10 - after Thomas, Miranda and Mr. Gates' deaths Silver became the closest person to Flint in this world - as his companion, quartermaster, even friend.
So if one eventualy will be the end of the other - it'll be because of that. Because they are what they need, they are each other's weakneses, Devils, demons or whatever we'd call it. And there's where Silver got it right - he does have the power now, he will have the power over the men for years to come and he will keep it on his own; he doesn't need Flint for that, not anymore. Flint on the other hand - will always need him (just as every red blooded human being needs a confidant, a friend). And that's where he sentences himself to lose with full knowledge of what's about to come. He will do this and he will die with a smile on his face.
Because what other choice do he have?
And you showed it perfectly. Thank you
I saw your post about this on tumblr and loveloveloved it! I'm so glad that you enjoyed it and I love your analysis of it. I'm very excited to see what season 4 brings because I'd like to do a companion video to this one with however the show decides to end (still blindly hoping that flint survives).
Thanks for liking it (I had it in my mind for some time, but couldn't get the words right; your video helped me put it correctly) xD And yes, I do have a lot of Black Sails feelings before the final season. I saw this post on tumblr (I don't have a link, sadly), it's something like:
Silver: And then I lost my dear captain...
Flint: Quit telling people that I'm dead!
Silver: Sometimes I can still hear his voice..
I'd like if that happened XD But the writers and actors said it's the darkest season, so... I'm waiting for more positive scenes. I'd die happy, if Flint will meet the parrot Captain Flint xD
LOVED this! Especially adored the shots where their silhouettes blend seamlessly from one to the other. And the music - just perfect! And when she sings "devil" and Flint's bloody face appears - YESSS. So good!
Thank you :)))))
I am here again...how is it this good still?
Oh my god, I can't stop watching this. Their dynamic is one of my favourite things from this show and you managed to capture it perfectly. This song just fits them so well *incoherent flailing ensues *
Thank you so much for doing this
This is BREATHTAKINGLY EPIC! I love you rediting and all you clip choices, especially the one where they're both standing with their head to the screen and it changes from on to the other. It's a very smooth transition.
this song + them = im deceased
I heard this song today and instantly thought of your video. Had to re-watch! This TV show was epic and so are your skills.
some of those transitions were trully inspired! The music killed me. Absolutely amazing!
This is incredible. Awesome work! The music, the clips, the coloring. Just wow!
Feel like I need to comment again to say that I’ve watched this an abnormal amount of times already. I just can’t stop. this is so fantastic, definitely the best silverflint edit I’ve seen so far
God Save The King. Long Live The King.
perfect song for these two!
Wow what a video it's awesome I loved flint in the movie he will be close to my heart
This was so good I actually got the chills. Well done.
aww, thank you!
This is really well done. The editing, the music, and its subject ... it goes well together.
I feel like at least half of the views is me because it's one of those masterpieces you can't help rewatching again and again
