So I decided I'd start making a few vids to highlight some of the parallels I have caught between Burke/Cristina and Cristina/Owen on Grey's I know a lot of you have not watched past seasons, so this may help you in that quest if you're wanting to see just how different Cristina is. The Burke clip is from season 1 and they had been sleeping together for a while, Owen's clip is from last week. Note the personality changes in Cristina and just her interaction with them in general The video isn't finished processing yet but when it does let me know what you think sorry for the quality:

Cristina is not the self-assured Resident we've seen emerge this season. Interesting to see her a bit timid around Burke. Not sure of what she wants whereas with Owen she is sure-at first-of what she doesn't want LOL. Burke himself is markedly different than Owen. He steps back to watch her where Owen just hot footed it out of there.

It's interesting that in the podcast this week they talk about the fact that because Burke was healthy, happy and whole, Cristina was able to run from him and from the relationship but with Owen, because he's such a hurt little bird she can't do that. At the moment, we're seeing her as the stronger one in the relationship and she's taking care of him, not backing away (perhaps that might change this week though, who knows).

Interesting to see Cristina being the talkative one in the first clip and the silent one in the second. I think she will have to make a similar statement to Owen at some point. She's obviously in by her actions but he may need to hear it to really believe it given his current emotional state.

Great work! I always thought she didn't seem happy with Burke. Owen is more compatible. Liked what you said about her not feeling as much competition. Think it will stay that way? She already knows she has it together and he doesn't so she has the upper hand, for however long that lasts. But it's also nice that they have the dichotomy--the times when they are both nervous with each other, or quiet, or angry or tell-it-like-it-is, too.

Thanks.. I have some more ideas for parallel vids as well that just dawned on me from people's comments. If anyone wants to make a video response go ahead. It's a fun little project. I agree though Burke didn't treat Cristina that well either, he was always judigng her which is interesting now because she appears to have no judgement issues with Owen, they just kind of accept each other the way they are.

OK here is another one I made based on her first meetings with Burke and Owen. As you can see it is interesting to look back on these things and see how differently she reacts to both of them.

These are fun to watch Maya. I didn't really watch the show before Kevin so I didn't know much about Burke and Cristina. I just that knew Burke was a schmuck. Interesting to see the evolution of Cristina, thanks.

Gods, Cristina is barely recognizable in that Burke clip. So much has changed.
Would love to know how you've gotten these clips without the original music. I noted the different song for the shower scene in the last one and in the Owen meeting the music is gone. Good software or some sort of screener copy?

I'm not sure about the other scene but I know that this was posted on the abc official site with different music and no voice over and then that clip ended up on youtube. They do that sometimes. I remember the kissing scene outside Joe's Bar had no music when it was posted on the abc site. I'm not sure if it's a copyright issue or just an editing thing.

yeah some of the clips to download are different. Its odd because a lot of them are better without music like the kiss outside of Joe's for example... I think it also has to do with music rights because you can use music in the series but when it is formatted to be sold on dvd you ahve to go through this whole process. That's what my friend Rob told me is one of the main issues in getting "Ed" released on dvd.

Here's the vid Kaz suggested a parallel between Owen's "No" outside of Cristina's building and Cristina's "Yes" in last week's ep (I know Owen's smile in the last clip is cut off sorry it was the only clip I could find for download argh!) :

His 'No' always gets me. So much emotion in one word. No energy to leave, clearly not wanting to be anywhere else and yet having no idea where to go next. Wonderful.
Her 'Yes' is like an opening of the gate for him to step through. Giving him the strength to look forward and her the courage to take a chance.
