  1. Red vs. Blue is great by Chris_Jefferson · · Score: 5, Interesting

    OK, I sound like a fanboy, but Red vs. Blue is actually quite good :)

    I feel it's one of the best examples of "some people with some ideas, some time and an internet connection can make something funnier than 90% of the stuff on TV". If you haven't seen the first and second series, you really should.

  3. bad compression ratio by Karma+Sucks · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Why do the redvsblue videos have such a bad compression ratio for such bad quality video? I mean the file size is just comparatively huge. Not to mention that the movies are framed up and down by large black strips.

    I've seen recompressed DivX videos of these same movies in much smaller size elsewhere on the net.

  4. Something I've always wondered... by EvilCabbage · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Who owns this stuff?

    I mean, these lads create this animated piece by using somebody elses protected art / characters, which (to my understanding) means they cannot ever sell this stuff in order to make a living, anyone confirm?

    Don't take this as me assuming these guys are trying to make a living off it, I'm just genuinely interested in who "owns" the end product.

    I saw both seasons in the entirity at the Alamo Draft House. It's an interesting little story about a group of soldiers stationed out in the Halo world. It's mostly a comedy of errors staring a spanish-speaking robot, a couple ghosts, and some really stupid people. All in all it's a lot of fun :-)

    The creators actually stayed for QA after each showing at the Drafthouse. Gus even gave out the shirt off his back to one of the audience members.. it was, er, strange :-)
