Valley of the Forerunners, Part 8
Dennis Powers writes to point out that Part 8 of the Valley of the Forerunners is now available for download on the Halo CE Chronicles website. 8:17 long, available in WMP9, QuickTime, and streaming Flash, this part shows Harrington and the Marines a little more about what they're up against. If you've wondered why some of the episodes of this season seem to start and end in non-standard places... Dennis wrote up a short piece explaining the difference between 'Episodes' and 'Parts', and why this season is laid out as it is. Worth a read! (Louis Wu 18:11:13 UTC)

NoobSpotting
Another imSuck movie made it through the MPRRS yesterday - this one is called '10 ways to tell if you're a noob', and it combines (as usual) great editing with entertaining commentary on various noobish activities. Grab a copy in either WMP9 format (45.9 mb) or QuickTime format (47.5 mb). (Louis Wu 14:30:20 UTC)

Lookie
Mothergoat released a followup to the MPD vid that hit the Halo scene a month and a half ago. Vanilla Ice got NUTHIN' on this white boy. You gotta watch this, even if you hate rap. Cause it's hilarious. Just over 50 mb, in WMP9 format (see Mutha G's forum post for a download link) - if you need a QuickTime version, we're hosting one for him because laughter is the best medicine. Think of this as a huge Benadryl-and-Robitussen cocktail. (Louis Wu 04:43:31 UTC)

Short Circuit
Slacker Entertainment has posted Heroes & Heretics Flashback 4: Short Circuit. In Episode 3, you met the Helots - unaugmented soldiers wearing modified Spartan armor. Except for getting killed a lot, they seemed like a competent bunch... but Short Circuit tells a different story. A significantly more entertaining one. And I LOVE the medic. Swing by and pick up a copy - funny stuff. (Louis Wu 04:02:50 UTC)

Lethargy Crisis
Rooster Teeth has a new PSA up for sponsors; they're looking at the current price of gasoline here in the US. It's pretty funny stuff - if you're a sponsor, go grab a copy! If you're not, it should be available to everyone by Sunday or so. Thanks, Speedhuntr. (Louis Wu 11:40:51 UTC)

View From Heaven
Belligerent put together 'View From Heaven', a music video set to the song of the same name by Yellowcard. The MPRRS crew loved the filmwork. Cinematography is quite good, film quality is quite good. Good angles, all around. Go watch! 30 mb, in either WMP9 or QuickTime formats. (Louis Wu 23:44:40 UTC)

The Ring Day 0
RemminyCricket submitted 'The Ring Day 0' to the MPRRS - reviewers liked the video effects, the background music, and the camerawork. It looks at the what happens to a guy who finds a video with a dire warning scribbled on it... 32 mb, in WMP9 or QuickTime format. (He's expecting to make 8 episodes, though not all will follow this storyline.) (Louis Wu 22:11:14 UTC)

I Stopped to Fill My Car Up
omg a fish submitted a music video set to the Stereophonics' 'I Stopped to Fill My Car Up' - great effects, great cinematography. The reviewers at the MPRRS liked it, though a few thought its pace was a bit too slow. (Hey, whaddaya want... it matches the song!) 21.6 mb in WMP9 format, 20.8 mb in QuickTime format. Grab a copy today! (Louis Wu 21:12:57 UTC)

The Valley of the Forerunners: Part 7
Dennis Powers writes to point out that the 7th episode of Valley of the Forerunners is online now at the Halo CE Chronicles website. Harrington takes over and begins to figure out what the marines need to do. Just over 7 minutes long, in (as usual) WMP9, QuickTime, and streaming Flash formats. Go watch! (Louis Wu 19:22:11 UTC)

Operation: Backwash Trailer
Treeskunk Productions, the guys behind Outpost: Coagulation, have started a new series, entitled 'Outpost: Backwash'. The series trailer made it through the MPRRS yesterday; they weren't looking for hosting, but since their downloads page offers only WMP9 format (22.9 mb), we're providing a QuickTime link (21.4 mb). Looks to be funny, well-filmed, entertaining - check it out! (Louis Wu 12:58:21 UTC)

Special Fred - and why it's here
Recently, we altered the information that MPRRS reviewers had access to about their own reviews; we gave them the ability to easily see when their reviews were wildly different from the norm. There aren't any solid rules about where you have to be in this regard - we're not looking to censor reviewers simply because they don't think like other reviewers. However, if someone is consistently lower than everyone else by a significant margin (our 'problem' delta is 25%), it behooves us to look closely at movies that fail solely because of reviews from these reviewers. One such film was 'Special Fred', from QuickTactical and the Epic Films crew; 7 out of 10 reviewers passed it, one gave it a score that was 2 points below passing, one failed it by about 10%... and one person was 30% below the average. Since that person has been well below the average on almost half his reviews (often without any real justification in the comments sections), this seems like an unreasonable score to base the failure of Special Fred on - so we're hosting it. It's funny, audio and video quality are quite good, it uses Stephen Lynch's music (always a plus), it does a great job of illustrating the song; I think it's worth seeing. You can grab it in WMP9 format (39.2 mb) or QuickTime format (39.1 mb). Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go listen to The Craig Machine. (Louis Wu 14:04:39 UTC)

ItWasLuck's Montage 5
MikeMan27 submitted to the MPRRS a new movie he'd edited - ItWasLuck's 5th montage. This film is up for grabs at Halo2Forums.com in WMP9 format, and weighs in at 100 mb (it's almost 9 minutes long), but since it passed the MPRRS (handily, I should add), we're making a QuickTime version available, as well, for those who need it. A lot of beautifully-strung-together kills, set nicely to music with some really big names in the sights. The biggest complaint from the MPRRS crew was that it was a bit long - but past that, this one ROCKS. Give it a look. (Louis Wu 03:32:49 UTC)

The Outlaw Spirit
This Spartan Life has both a new episode, and a new website, online at this point. No more massive Flash! Today's news post contains information about Malcolm McLaren, the latest interviewee on the show; you can grab the episode itself from the Episodes section. Interesting stuff! (Louis Wu 23:58:17 UTC)

Beat It.
You might think today's selection of downloadable Halo videos, from us and other sites, was large enough to be considered 'complete' for the day. You'd be wrong. Another vid passed the MPRRS this morning; it was a montage from l PhaLanX l, called 'Beat It'. He didn't want hosting, because the WMP9 version is available from GamingVidz (66 mb)... but because it passed the MPRRS, we want to make sure everyone can see it, so for those who need a QuickTime version, you can grab one from us. I gotta say... the guy's pretty good with a sticky grenade. (You can find more of his videos over at GamingVidz.) (Louis Wu 19:17:26 UTC)

The Valley of the Forerunners: Part 6
Over at the Halo CE Chronicles website, you can grab part 6 of the Valley of the Forerunners series. Harrington and the marines are starting to get an idea about how much trouble they're actually in. Cinematography is quite good on this one. It's a long one - almost 13 minutes, and weighing in at more than 40 mb for the downloadable versions (or 15 mb for the streaming Flash). Go watch!

Halzred's 5th Montage
Z sent us word that Halzred's 5th Montage is now available for download (we mentioned the trailer for it back in January). It's 106 mb, in WMP9 format; it's definitely more about the look-and-feel than about the gameplay. (Don't get me wrong - the gameplay's pretty impressive, what you can see of it - it's just that this movie is REALLY heavy on the editing effects.) If you're prone to epileptic seizures, do NOT download this video. Whatever else you say about this guy, you've got to give him props for his mad editing skillz. (Louis Wu 16:11:55 UTC)

Rip Digital Cable 3
Another video that went through the MPRRS recently was RipHamilton32's 'Rip Digital Cable 3', a series of funny skits set up to look like you're flipping through cable channels. This one didn't pass - but it didn't pass because one reviewer gave it a ridiculously low score (without any justification); we've tossed that score, and are hosting the file. (We dumped the reviewer, too.) You can grab it in WMP9 format (14.6 mb) or QuickTime format (14 mb). (Louis Wu 16:01:23 UTC)

Major Tom Diaries - Primer
So there's a group called Echo Zulu Films that has created a couple of machinima series - Alone, and the Major Tom Diaries - and they've recently released a Major Tom Diaries Primer episode, to bring new watchers up to speed on where the series is. If you'd like to check out the Major Tom Diaries, but don't have time to watch the existing vids (there are 5 of them), you can grab this video at HaloMovies.org, in either WMP9 or QuickTime formats. It weighs in at about 25 mb, depending on version. Thanks, Dennis. (Louis Wu 15:50:21 UTC)

Tablesaw Anatomy Episode 1
Fwankman88 and friends at Force Lightning Studios created 'Tablesaw Anatomy Episode 1 - it's the start of a new machinima series. Two Ex-Marine bounty hunters stumble on a secret lab during a "sting". Questions are left as they try and figure out what they really saw. Production values are quite high; great effects, great sound quality. This is one to follow. The MPRRS liked it, too, which is why we're offering you downloads in either WMP9 or QuickTime formats (22.3 mb, 8:23). Go grab it! (Louis Wu 01:48:45 UTC)

Konichiwa, vato!
Heroes & Heretics Episode 4, 'Operation: Incontinent Elephant', has been posted over at the Slacker Entertainment website. More troops - but no substantial increase in battle strength. Poor Feldman... Thanks, WereSloth. (Louis Wu 03:36:40 UTC)

I'm so confused.
Red vs Blue Episode 77 - The Arrival - has been posted for sponsors. Currently it's only available as a QuickTime - but other formats should be coming soon. I'm not even going to BEGIN telling you what it's about - but more happens in 7 minutes than has happened in months. There's a - um... and a - er... and Tucker - eep... and then Donut - oh, dang, just go download it. Why leave one cliffhanging storyline at the end of the season when you can leave a dozen? Looks like Kraken was first. (Louis Wu 19:01:11 UTC)

New Vids at H2F
Two new movies of note over at Halo2Forum.com. The first is a dual montage from Wedow and Vinny Jones; it's pretty cool, because Wedow did a fantastic job of color-coding the clips to let you know who was playing. (Watch it - it'll make more sense once you do.) This one's 128 mb, in WMP9 format. Then there's another great gameplay vid from Xit Woundz - Killer N filmed a TS game on Ivory Tower against Str8 Rippin. 70.4 mb, WMP9 format. Go grab! (Louis Wu 11:10:41 UTC)

Captain Planet 2.0
imSuck and the HollywoodHalo crew submitted another vid to the MPRRS yesterday; it's a spoof of the early 90's Captain Planet cartoon. It's a pretty funny piece, and (as is true of all of imSuck's work) beautifully filmed. (To the whole HH crew - you guys need to move your mouths away from the mics when you talk - or record dialogue after the movie. Otherwise - great work!) Grab a copy in WMP9 format (45.2 mb) or QuickTime format (45.8 mb). (Louis Wu 18:56:56 UTC)

The Valley of the Forerunners, Part 5
Valley of the Forerunners, Part 5 has been posted on the Halo CE Chronicles website. The marine contingent doesn't understand what they've gotten themselves into - Sargeant Roberts learns the hard way what happens if he stops trusting Harrington. Great integration of stock Halo footage, combined with lots of new stuff. 8:40 long, available in WMP9, QuickTime, and streaming Flash. (Louis Wu 16:23:46 UTC)
