This A.I. Be CRAY CRAY!
In today’s episode, Smarty talks about something that has been pestering the Halo machinima community for quite some time… Dramatic Halo Machinimas. Specifically, Daemon Productions’ “Magnum Opus”: Haley.

I run a show called The Machinimist where i rail on machinima culture, and review certain machinima films. I also do a show about games that i never played, but really should have

You do realise that the level he filmed in is nothing but hallways? Seriously, go play the first level in Halo: CE.
IT’S HALLWAYS EVERYWHERE!
Point being: You can’t call it a stylistic choice when it’s literally all he had to work with in terms of sets.
Also, “Magnum Opus”? That’s a very lazy way of thinking. Who said it was a Magnum Opus? Who said it was a culmination of experiences? Could you perhaps supply us with a quote saying it was meant to be a magnum opus?
Actually, given the quote you misused in Retrograde, maybe I should be thankful you didn’t use a quote.
You should really watch “SPARTANs”, “border war”, “revolution” and “last war”.
You should watch it in that specific order.

Inspiration is good thing, but I think that you have been mimicking JonTron a tad bit too much lately. I would recommend doing your own thing rather than using his style, because it really doesn’t work that well here.
Saying im Mimicking JonTron is too radical imo. This episode i really wanted to test some editing tricks if anything as well as some improv stuff. Plus ive always wanted to use that “running in the 90′s” gag. But i digress. Im just trying to have a bit of fun with the video while at the same time putting some work into it. I will be doing my own thing but i cant help it if a bit of my fanboyish ways show…
Nice episode.
2 questions about the ending music though. a) Is there link to it?
and b) Was it a hint towards what game the next machinima will be or did you just put it there cause you’re a minecraft fan in general?
