People do not make frag movie's to promote themselves, or show off, It is frag highlights, and entertains many people. You can learn much off of these. so obviously a lot of people care. Its those "stunt" video's that are the boring ones, you know, the ones that sir. make?
Also, looks like you never seen a "good" frag movie.

There is absolutely no entertainment value in a FRAG movie. If you've seen one FRAG movie you've seen them all...I learn by doing not by watching other people.
Actually, I stand corrected, I did learn something from one frag video...that is?? ITS FRIGGING BORING...no substance...at least put a story line to it so it makes SOME sense...

The movies I find the most boring are the Black Hawk Down/insert military movie here wanabees which are never remotely believable and usually come down to nothing but people shooting eachother to music from bad angles. Since you obviously don't take this game seriously you aren't going to appreciate it.

Please, before you start flinging **** like a ****ing ape, try and back up your points. And considering that you both act like you're about 8 years old, talking to someone who is over 10 might actually be a healthy experience. Trust me, if you met Sir. Tehdude on the street, you'd crap your pants and run to mommy.

Um....
I believe everyone has the right to an opinion. Not just you pretentious, self-proclaimed Gods. If you don't like something...you have a choice, either watch it and shut up, or turn it off and shut up. No one, honestly, wants to hear anyone ***** about something as meaningless as a machinima.
Tehdude said something rude, so i said something back. That's who I am. I'm an arrogant, self-centered, douche bag who doesn't take kindly to people. If Tehdude is so amazing, he obviously doesn't need you two to back up his sorry ***.
So before you start accusing people you don't know of being 8 year old apes, why don't you grow up yourself?
The people at Sir. all hold themselves higher than what than what they really are. But you'll never see that because you're too jaded to have an opinion other than your own. No one wants to look at something they enjoy in a negative light. It will never happen. It's human nature.
Oh, and i said I'd rather watch a boring frag movie(saying that, yes, most are boring) but not all are. Go watch Awoken Eyes. That's a frag movie.
What makes a frag movie? Good frags(content), good music, good editing, and nice effects.
What makes a machinima? Same exact things. Content, soundtrack, editing, effects.
I'm not one-sided enough to deny that different people have different opinions.
And I'm done ranting to you people.
There is absolutely no entertainment value in a FRAG movie. If you've seen one FRAG movie you've seen them all...I learn by doing not by watching other people.

Last time I saw a Sir. movie it had a story line, I've seen 90% of Sir. movies. Frag movies are poor, boring, and for people too obsessed with the game. Machanim (however you spell it) films have storylines, and are creative. I rest my case.

The people at Sir. all hold themselves higher than what than what they really are. But you'll never see that because you're too jaded to have an opinion other than your own.
A Sir. member decides to do a film. He gets admin access to our server, then calls on people in our TeamSpeak to come act in it. He films all of the scenes and goes off to render them and turn it into a final product. Before that member's video ever reaches the public, he must post it in the private section first. In the private section, each member takes a look at it and, if necessary, bashes the **** out of it. We're brutally honest with the guy who made it. If it's not good enough, it never gets released until it's fixed. If it never gets fixed to the standard that we maintain, it never gets released.
We've had 8 films like that, including one that took 3 months to produce.
We don't pretend to be high. We are high. We rose because of the hard work and dedication that every member puts into the group. And now, it's paying off for a lot of them with money. Good freaking money. So, apparently, someone shares the same opinion about ourselves, as we do.
Was that arrogance from TheDude? No. It was brutal honesty. It was the same thing we would have said to one of our own members. If people can't handle the truth, they should crawl under a rock and hide from life.
Now, Proto, I respect your opinion about FRAG movies and what not but, don't insult The Sir. Community. TheDude is another forum member just like the rest of us. Do not bring Sir. into this anymore.

As I suspected, he still can't name a single one of our movies. Ladies and gentlemen, what does that tell you?
You really should watch a Sir. movie and put together a coherent statement explaining your criticisms before you continue to make yourself sound like such an idiot. Everybody has the right to an opinion, but I can't stand people who so ignorantly decide to insult the whole group simply because of the opinions of one member. We're not defending Tehdude like some schoolyard bully group, we're defending the integrity and image of the whole damn Sir. Community. You know why we may seem arrogant to you? Because we can back it up. Certain people just can't handle that. We try to not be assholes about it.
Oh, and this made me chuckle:

You all have made me laugh so much, that you've made my day a hundred times better. The reason I can't name one of your movies off the top of my head is because I don't like them. I watch them and forget about them. I'm not ignorant, just forgetful. So sue me.
Thank you for taking the time to download Awoken Eyes. I don't have a personal vendetta against anyone in Sir, or the entire community, but I am tired of the self-promoted fame.
Movies such as Operation: Burning Sands, to me, was very disappointing. You get a sentence of what seems to be a story, and then 10 minutes of random content. The story doesn't build at all.
My opinion? I don't see the point in making a movie out of video game that follows a story, but if you're gonna do it, you might as well do it right. I enjoy series/skit machinima with a comedic flare(P.A.N.I.C.S., Red vs Blue, The Pwned Life, Mine 1/2).
I don't know you people, so I don't see why I should completely explain myself to you. I'm not here to write an argument paper on why I disagree with you, but I can voice my opinion on your contradictions, or however I end up analyzing the situation.
Please, learn to refrain yourselves. I respect your criticisms, but this isn't your private forum. Many different types of movies get posted in the media section. Whether they be machinima, frag or stunt movies, etc., whether good or bad, SOMEONE put time in to it. Not everyone has the resources you do, and can't live up to your seemingly Godly standards.
My whole point here, was that Tehdude had no right to publicly bash an entire group of media. I've already had a PM war with him, where I attempted to explain myself(which all seemed fruitless). I don't need the entire Sir. Community breathing down my neck with their opinionated ********. Have a nice, day. I hope you'll learn to live with other peoples' views.

I tend to think that most frag videos are boring, because they have poor editing, and poor content. But not all, that Frag video about Call of duty that someone posted was completely awesome from my point of view.
I do think people should criticize videos that are released to the public. This is a crucial step in making people better at what they do. Say, for example, someone makes a video of one complete round of karkand infantry only. No editing, just completely like you yourself were playing, and nobody said, "Wow, that sucks, edit it to show clips." Imagine how bad the standard would be .... (this is just an extreme example)
I also think it's funny how, when in a forum "discussion" people type grammatically correct sentences and paragraphs. :D As opposed to lol, wtf, kewl, lawl, etc.
Basically, yeah.
Oh, and about the Sir's being gods ...
it's kinda like people from other countries hating USA, because we are the super power. The role-models if you will.

Self-promoted? What, we released some movies that were popular so now we're evil? It's hardly self-promoted. We don't spend a dime on advertising. Sorry to gloat, but we just took part in producing a Northern Strike trailer (http://www.totalbf2142.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20693) for EA/Dice. You really can't go much higher than that in the Battlefield community. I think it gives us at least some rights to brag, but as I said before we try not to be assholes about it.
Movies such as Operation: Burning Sands, to me, was very disappointing. You get a sentence of what seems to be a story, and then 10 minutes of random content. The story doesn't build at all.
Finally, thanks! I've heard that from other people too. If you check the credits, the storyline (or lack thereof) was not done by Sir. members, it was some other clan and we produced it for them. I suggest you watch one of the more recent shorts (http://sircommunity.com/?p=filming) we've done, such as The Jump Program and the Top Gear Parody. If you look really really hard and maybe ignore the fact that they're made by the evil Sir. Community, you may notice storylines lurking within those two ;)
My opinion? I don't see the point in making a movie out of video game that follows a story, but if you're gonna do it, you might as well do it right. I enjoy series/skit machinima with a comedic flare(P.A.N.I.C.S., Red vs Blue, The Pwned Life, Mine 1/2).
I could say that in order to do a frag movie "right", it would have to have purple rabbits, but I'm not going to insult anyone else's efforts simply because they don't have what I like.
I don't need the entire Sir. Community breathing down my neck with their opinionated ********. Have a nice, day. I hope you'll learn to live with other peoples' views.
Entire? I see that three Sir. members have posted here. Check the member list (http://sircommunity.com/?p=people), it would take a few more pages if everybody decided to post. And they don't, because we're not the gang that you're trying to make us appear to be.
Having you stomp away like a drama queen as you whine about the Sir. Community bullying you will not be tolerated. THAT is the true "opinionated ********" right there. Get the facts next time.

.......
Okay, so there's this big discussion about 'machinema' or what ever the heck you want to call it. According to Wikipedia (for laziness to find another source)
Machinima (pronounced (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPA_chart_for_English) [mə.ˈʃiː.nə.mə] or [mə.ˈʃɪ.nə.mə]), a portmanteau (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portmanteau) of machine cinema or machine animation, is both a collection of associated production techniques and a film genre (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_genre) defined by those techniques. As a production technique, the term concerns the rendering (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_%28computer_graphics%29) of computer-generated imagery (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-generated_imagery) (CGI) using real-time, interactive (game) 3D (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_computer_graphics) engines, as opposed to high-end and complex 3D animation software used by professionals. Engines from first person shooter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_person_shooter) and role-playing simulation video games (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_and_video_games) are typically used. Consequently, the rendering can be done in real-time using PCs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_computer) (either using the computer of the creator or the viewer), rather than with complex 3D engines using huge render farms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Render_farm). As a film genre, the term refers to movies created by the techniques described above. Usually, machinima productions are produced using the tools (demo recording, camera angle, level editor, script editor, etc.) and resources (backgrounds, levels, characters, skins, etc.) available in a game.
Trying to find in there where is indicates that there has to be a story line. My Geek and Gamer Group has been making Machinema films since 2002, very few, if any have an acutal story line but the feedback we've gotten is that they were entertaining. In some cases a storyline is nice, like "The Forgotten" done in BF:V - excellent. And then I've seen goofy stunt stuff that I've enjoyed, random bits of gaming strung to gether to music (Like TehDude does, usually with some theme).
I've seen good, I've seen bad, I've seen excellent, I've seen horrible. We all have opinions, and they should be shared, but they are just that, opinions, not fact.
A vid of someone running around fragging other is old, not as old as me, but old. Anyone remember Doom? Or better yet, Castle Wolfenstien? Yah, there were frag vids made with those game engines back when a 33 MHz 486 with 8 MB of RAM was a screaming machine.. think 15 years ago... (when I was still old enough to drink... lol, I am old)
I'll continue to watch as many vids as I can, If I have nothing constructive to add, I won't. If I think your vid sucks, I'll generally keep my mouth shut unless I have ways that you can improve it.
Peace,
Tim

Yes, because you're the foremost authority on what's boring and what's not. We look at the public's viewpoint as a whole, not just a couple of Counter-Strike kiddies who take games way too seriously. I repeat what I said before - if you didn't like a movie, at least say WHY. Right now you're just bashing because you want to join the "Sir. Community is popular, therefore they're evil! Nya nya nya!" bandwagon.
I like this thread, it nicely displays who all the immature ones are. If you have an opinion, say it, just make it constructive so we can improve. I am NOT pissed off because you don't like our movies. It's because you don't say WHY. Just remember that.

Thanks for pointing that out oh so eloquently. That really shows you the mindset of these people...they don't care about the movies or anything. It's just the fact that they can't handle our popularity. I know it sounds like I'm boasting, but truth hurts doesn't it?
MORAL OF THE STORY: Every Sir. member is entitled to their own opinion, and that opinion is in no way connected to the Sir. Community. Bashing the Sir. Community with nothing to back up your statements will not make you the cool kid on the block. Bashing an individual Sir. member is subject to the rules of the forum, but it has nothing to do with the Sir. Community. Bashing a Sir. Community movie requires that you a) have details about what you didn't like, and b) that you have actually watched the movie. We welcome criticism as long as it makes sense and you're not just foaming at the mouth trying to be "cool". :)

I'd rather watch a boring frag video than ANOTHER boring half-assed machinima from Sir. I've probably seen 1 good movie come out of Sir.
So you can either read or shut up.
I already stated that I have no personal vendetta against Sir., but I'm sick and tired of people in Sir. thinking that they're better than everyone else because they have the resources to turn out less than decent machinimas from a game known for bad ones.
I don't know where you people get off trying to call me(or anyone else) immature, because you don't know me,, and if you on the other side of this, you'd be saying the same thing. But it's not you. You have your little legion of zealots to back you up, and I'm one person. And tehdude, yes, you used name-calling to 'bring your point across'. You were the one who started the 8yr old ape thing. I think it's my right to at least mock you by giving you what you want.
Feel free to further the conversation in a more private manner. If you're mature enough to do so.
@Tehdude, I believe I'm done with you. I attempted to show you my point, but you just kept feeding me stall lines after I had given you what you want. I think I heard your mommy, is dinner ready?
I'm not trying to be 'cool' on an internet forum. I'm entitles to my own opinion, and if that is disliking the movies that come from Sir. Community, then so be it. I'm not a film critic, and I'm not going to write you on essay on your horrid films. I can tell you one thing that's good, and that's the fact that you have someone like Xalias doing the designs for most of the movies.

Your opinion means nothing either because you still haven't backed up your points. We are better than everyone else. There you go, I said it. We're THE Battlefield filming community. We're not forcing anyone to like our movies. But we have the balls to defend ourselves if someone starts bashing us for no reason.
Ask the magazines who have featured our movies. Ask the people who have watched them. Ask EA and Dice who picked US to help with their teaser videos. "Less than decent" is your opinion, but yours is not the only one around here.
But it's not you. You have your little legion of zealots to back you up, and I'm one person.
Four Sir. members have posted in this thread. Tim's comment did not contribute to this argument, so that makes three. Hardly a "legion of zealots". Have you been reading anything I wrote earlier about the fact that we're NOT a group of schoolyard bullies? If we were, there would be 8 other Sir. members going "HAHA **** YOU PROTOTYPE". But no, this isn't Counter-Strike, people have some maturity here.
Or are you calling those other non-Sir.-members (i.e. jameslcfc) zealots? Who made you the god of TotalBF2? They have the right to their own opinion, what the hell is wrong with that? Maybe they have the intelligence to have their own opinion instead of following your blabbering.
Feel free to further the conversation in a more private manner. If you're mature enough to do so.
No. Once again, I will not tolerate you trying to make us look like the bad guys here while you run back to your little hole. The whole reason I haven't resorted to PMs is the fact that I wanted to expose the reasoning behind one of these mindless bashers who can't give an ounce of constructive criticism.
I'm not a film critic, and I'm not going to write you on essay on your horrid films. I can tell you one thing that's good, and that's the fact that you have someone like Xalias doing the designs for most of the movies.
Once again, you have nothing to back up your statement. You have an opinion, but right now it's based solely on jealousy. We're entitled to defending ourselves and keeping our image as much as you are.
The worst thing about this thread is the fact that ONE Sir. member posted his opinion (his own personal opinion, an opinion that had nothing to do with the Sir. Community) and now people are trying to hold that against everybody in the Sir. Community. Are people really so stupid that they don't know the difference?

For a start I did say "correct me if I'm wrong." I didn't ask for a 9 year old (yes, you've matured..slightly) reply. The reason you won't write an essay on Sir.'s films is because everything in them will be good. Special Delivery had a story line, oh..I guess you didn't see that. Special Delivery 2142 had a story line, you see that? Didn't think so. The Jump Program had both a story line and soem of the best editing I've ever seen. Stunts Evolution was nice to watch. Warlord had a story line.
Frag movies have one thing, a movie with highlights from ranked servers. Tehdude said he didn't like that. Tehdude had a right to say that, you had a right to tell him, "Look, no need to criticise..they tried". That would be reasonable but you came back with an immature statement. I vote you never check back at this thread again.

Well said.

..@Tehdude, I believe I'm done with you. I attempted to show you my point, but you just kept feeding me stall lines after I had given you what you want. I think I heard your mommy, is dinner ready?...
So who's being immature now?? I have never once demeaned you or anybody else in this thread and yet you continue to insult me and the intelligence of the other readers here...
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLY MATURE ON YOUR PART???

Special Delivery had a story line, oh..I guess you didn't see that. No, you're right, didn't watch that one. 1)Because I'm in college and I have better **** to do than to watch another Sir. film that fits a mold.
Special Delivery 2142 had a story line, you see that? Didn't think so. Yes, I watched the first few minutes and closed out google video...one of the most boring intros I've ever seen. Anyone can film a solid angle and then film the camera rushing through the map and then mask the two scenes together in After Effects. That and I don't like 2142.
The Jump Program had both a story line and soem of the best editing I've ever seen. Isn't this the film that's based off of The Matrix? Entertaining? A little. Original...no. Storyline? Following a movie script word by word and move by move isn't necessarily a story.
Stunts Evolution was nice to watch. Was this hte one with people jumping off of cliffs? *yawn* Or the one with the jet stunts that everyone can do with 3 minutes of practice and a joystick(although the cross points at Daqing was very nice to watch, but kind of sloppy, and was showed about 5 times in 6 different angles).
Warlord had a story line. Didn't get around to watching that one either.
Frag movies have one thing, a movie with highlights from ranked servers. Tehdude said he didn't like that. Tehdude had a right to say that, you had a right to tell him, "Look, no need to criticise..they tried". That would be reasonable but you came back with an immature statement.

No...just no...
A true frag movie(Awoken Eyes as I said earlier is amazing if you like CS 1.6, one of the best teams featured in 5v5 CAL, CPL, CEVO-P competition, all of the kills were made in competition against top teams. UK and Ireland Scene Movie, can be found on Source-Radio.net, is a Counter Strike Source frag movie also featuring great players playing against great teams. Redux's video, Duck & Cover, which I'm sure most of you have seen, is taken from 5v5 IO and 8v8 Conquest style competition. There are plenty more I can name. A true frag video is NOT from Ranked servers...yeah, you can make some good shots...but it's usually against people who can't play worth a damn. Pub shots...meh. Competition frag movies...there ya go. I guess you wouldn't know what competition is though, eh? Probably another pub star.
And yes...you can learn a lot from frag movies. I base my entire play style around Redux. Using is his moves, his map routes. It helped me become a better Infantry player(back when I played more).
Once I started getting in to 1.6 and Source competition, I watch HLTV feeds from matches and frag videos to get a sense of what the better players do. Faking rushes(1v1, bomb down, CT at bomb, Terrorist around the corner, fake a flash(throw a smoke), run a little bit, stall him from defusing, hopefully it blows). Or on the other side, 1v1, trying to plant the bomb, fake the keypad and hope the CT rushes out. For someone like me who was completely bereft of CS competition experience...you can learn a lot from watch those things.
But once again...you may not even be in competition.
So who's being immature now?? I have never once demeaned you or anybody else in this thread and yet you continue to insult me and the intelligence of the other readers here...

One again...I think the sarcasm and mockery receptors in your brain are faulty.

I was not trying to be sarcastic or to mock you. I'm trying to get you to answer the one question you WILL NOT answer.
How are you being mature by:
A) Turing this into a Sir. flamewar when Sir. wasn't even involved
B) Insulting me in the thread
How is that mature?? Did I do this to you?? NO!
Have I, after all the berating you've inflicted on me and Sir., insulted YOU or ANYBODY else in this thread?? NO!!
Did I ever, before you got started with this whole immature rant of yours, mention Sir. while making a reply?? NO!!!
Are you going to reply again the same way as before, with more insults thrown at anybody that doesn't agree with you here??? YES!!

No, you're right, didn't watch that one. 1)Because I'm in college and I have better **** to do than to watch another Sir. film that fits a mold.
And yet you have time to watch other movies and even play Counter-Strike, which I may add, will get you ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE IN LIFE. We have several Sir. members who are now earning money because people high up in companies noticed them because of the publicity they received in the Sir. Community. Don't pull your "I'm too good for you" bulll**** here, it doesn't work.
Yes, I watched the first few minutes and closed out google video...one of the most boring intros I've ever seen. Anyone can film a solid angle and then film the camera rushing through the map and then mask the two scenes together in After Effects. That and I don't like 2142.
Watch the first 1:45 of Mine (a movie you say you enjoyed). Anyone can do that too. I'm not a movie editor but I can make a clip of a single guy running around in a map. Even easier to do than After Effects composition. What's your point, buddy?
Didn't get around to watching [Warlord] either.
No, you just couldn't think of more mindless insults. We've got time, go ahead.
