Glenn's or rather New Order's AG Videos

Kirk · 02-15-2005, 05:51 PM

Hello, Everyone--

My name is Kirk...for all those who may have forgotten, and I wanted to make a suggestion to the community and see if others agree.

I have seen a few of Glenn's Adventure Gamers videos and find them to be quasi-informative, deal with real life community questions and add a very nice touch of humor to the site. I believe that most of you see value in adding a touch of humor and even a personal touch to the front page of AG.

I would really like to see Glenn's videos take off, join the front page (when applicable) instead of the far reaches of the forum. What do you think?

Here is a small example of what Glenn (himself as director, producer and actor) can create after receiving a serious Adventure Gamers question (right-click and save target as...):

So...I really would like to see Glenn's extra efforts taken to the next level, and dug from up from the Adventure Gamers' forum graveyard. What do you think?

That would be awesome. His movies are great.

Glenn Epic · 02-15-2005, 06:45 PM

Hey thanks Kirk, I have been working on some things behind the scenes

*Jake* · 02-15-2005, 06:52 PM

Quality! Good work on that video. The mere inclusion of actual video clips instead of just you talking at the camera earns you 80 billion points. Nice.

***tabacco*** · 02-15-2005, 07:32 PM

Oh man, that rules.

Draco2.5 · 02-15-2005, 08:02 PM

Hmm... quite good if I do say so myself.

Heck, I was gonna submit them for the Best Short Film Oscar.

But to address the original question, Glenn's filmmaking prowess certainly hasn't gone unnoticed. We've definitely given some thought to how we can best ~~capitalize~~ ~~take advantage of~~ utilize those skills, but there are no concrete plans as yet.

In the meantime, I'm not so sure "graveyard" is all that accurate.

I wanna see question #1! That was excellent stuff, man!

That was pure genius! Is there a question 3?

Wormsie · 02-16-2005, 07:25 AM

That... was... great! At first Part 2 it seemed rather dull, but got progressively better, to the level of super awesome.

simpson_yellow · 02-16-2005, 07:57 AM

Just watched Q2. That was cool

! Nicely edited 2nd half in particular.

Question 1 being ~~downloaded~~ exhumed from the forum graveyard now.

simpson_yellow · 02-16-2005, 08:36 AM

Ha! I watched Q1 a few minutes ago (stupid dial-up

).

Laughed my ass off at the end - the bit where you shriek at the PC is gold!

***Marek*** · 02-16-2005, 12:18 PM

At first I was going "erm wtf is this?" but then it turned out to be something really well edited, really well done, and with great endings too. I love it! I didn't even know you made these. Give us more!

***fov*** · 02-16-2005, 12:49 PM

I hadn't seen these before. They're hilarious.

And I like your accent.

MaryScots · 02-16-2005, 12:55 PM

Absolutely brilliant! Thank you! Especially for "Question No. 1"

Now, let's see... who of my friends needs a cure from FPS games? Ah, here! I'm off to bug the first unsuspecting victim

100ja a.k.a. mr_mitja · 02-16-2005, 01:44 PM

I've finally watched both q1 and q2. Man, you rock! Maybe there really should be a place for your movies on the main page... NO, there should definitely be a place for you there!

SakSquash · 02-16-2005, 07:52 PM

Ehhh...it was alright. But you need to stop filming in wide open rooms because the echo reminds me of a 2nd grade play. But the production values are reallyyyyyyyyy good. I don't find them "funny," but rather entertaining.
