Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: schild on October 12, 2004, 06:25:17 PM So I've watched the first 2 seasons. Let me just say, the new episode for the third season (episode 1) is the best episode they've done. I suggest everyone go download it.....now.
Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Liquidator on October 12, 2004, 07:26:00 PM What is this? Is it a TV show? Movie? Game? I'm confused. :(
Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: schild on October 12, 2004, 07:28:50 PM It's a.....they have a name for it, but it's lame. It's a "cartoon" made with Halo that's been going on for a real real long time.
Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Alkiera on October 12, 2004, 08:31:48 PM It's a sample of 'machinema', for 'machine-assisted cinema'. Basically, they play games of Halo on the XBox, with one person set up as a 'camera', whose video is recorded. Then they edit together the voices and video clips to tell stories.
I have the first season DVD, haven't watched any of 2nd season yet. There were issues with their links initially for 2nd season, so I stopped checking. They are, however, freekin hilarious. Some FPS in-jokes, but plenty of other geeky humor as well. Good stuff. -- Alkiera Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Liquidator on October 12, 2004, 08:36:01 PM Quote from: Alkiera It's a sample of 'machinema', for 'machine-assisted cinema'.

I remember they used to do the same type of thing back in the day with the original Quake - there was some pretty funny stuff being produced with it. The fact that it was using a game engine made it really enjoyable to watch. I'll have to go Google for it. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: HaemishM on October 13, 2004, 07:42:36 AM I've been luvin' RVB for a while now. One of my favorites is the PSA they did about the Internet. Fuck that was funny. They don't appear to have it online anymore though, so I'm glad I saved it on my hard drive at work.
Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Shannow on October 13, 2004, 07:52:12 AM I thought it was the plasticine animation show they used to show in the afternoons when I was a kid? That was a funny show.;P

Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: HaemishM on October 13, 2004, 09:05:10 AM Shit this one was great!
POW! "AH, you camping bitch!" "It's a legitimate strategy!" Classic. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Merusk on October 13, 2004, 10:44:32 AM Ok, been hearing references to this for a while so I checked it out last night. All they had up for public consumption was episodes 12-16 but they were classic. Anyone know where you can pickup some of the other episodes to watch?

I must condemn music and books... they are keeping me out of the pop-culture loop. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: SurfD on October 13, 2004, 12:46:12 PM not sure if they still do it this way, but they used to rotate through their old ones. One week they have eps 12-16, next week 7-11 or something.
If i had a way to get them to you I have eps 1-26, Ep 28, and PSA 1, 3, and 6 on my HD right now. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: SurfD on October 13, 2004, 01:12:11 PM WOOO, My Google Fu is strong today:
RvsB Archive (http://www.archive.org/movies/movieslisting-browse.php?collection=machinima&cat=halo:%20red%20vs.%20blue) Thats a complete archive for all eps 1-36. Unfortunately, they dont seem to have any of the PSAs. That page can also be followed back for a Bigass collection of other Machinima projects. Edit: I stand corrected, you should be able to find PSA 1, 5 and 6 by typing PSA into their search box and then scrolling down the page. For some reason the PSA's arent grouped with the regular RvsB Videos. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Riggswolfe on October 13, 2004, 01:25:38 PM They are going to be doing this with the Sims2 next from what I hear. There's even some kind of contest involved, make your own episode or something

Greatest depiction of an online FPS. Ever. They've really picked up the humor and I can see alot of funny shit coming from them having mixed the teams now. Sarge and Caboose are going to be priceless. They were in this episode. They've really ramped up Cabooses lack of intelligence. I love it. He's my favourite character. Sneak negotiations!

I just did when we were standing in that creek a minute ago." Or quite possibly his best line in any episode: "This is going to be hard. My head is round and that window is square." Though I'm really a big fan of Sarge. His complete and total lack of anything that could be called "Solid Military Training" just pwns me. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Cosmik on October 14, 2004, 06:04:06 AM The "Real Life vs The Internet" public service announcement is definately worth the download.
"I like Angelina Jolie! Does anyone else like Angelina Jolie? She's got enormous lips!" - Sarge Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: SurfD on October 14, 2004, 07:13:17 AM Damnit, which PSA is that? I dont have it :(
Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: HaemishM on October 14, 2004, 08:00:24 AM Doh, it's not a PSA. It's called "RVB_NYC2.mov" or something. It was a trailer they did for the 2nd Annual Wild Wild Web show in New York City or something. If you can find it, it's just that funny.

I figured I'd bring the funny to the people. Title: Red vs. Blue Post by: Zetleft on October 17, 2004, 12:56:32 PM Quote from: HaemishM Doh, it's not a PSA. It's called "RVB_NYC2.mov" or something.
