THF Movie Competition 2016 - Rounds, Pools, and Voting

I didn't tell you what song to put, just like you shouldn't tell others what songs to put either. It's all subjective. People have different taste in music... crazy right!? I just felt it lacked the sync points to be a montage type song. I said it's forgettable because it blends in with the crowd, and that crowd consist of thousands of halo 3 mlg montages. The theater work had nothing special to it, all halo 3 videos have those kind of angles.. I'm sure just about everyone else who watched it once or twice won't remember the intro, outro, clips or song either. That's just how I feel about your video, obviously you're attached to it though.



>obviously you're attached to it though
No, I don't think my video is that good. I give it a 7/10, read instead of spazz next time. 

>all halo 3 videos have those kind of angles
Haha again, your entire post builds on this one unintelligent comment.

If you think my angles are as bad as editors like MK, Local, or Sillygoose then you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
 
Okay, I don't think Local's angles are all that great but you're fucking delusional if you think your theater work is better than Sillygoose's. And once again, the song is shit montage music. So fucking boring.

do you realize I did some of the editing/angles here?  pTw himself said that this video had the best execution of angles he's ever seen.

Either way the point is that my video was miles better than any entry in pool A.

My entry had the best music used in a montage since Hyena's usage of Boards of Canada in Mastery. You're being passive aggressive but you're wrong, and I'm right, even though people agree with you because I'm on a video game site. 

this was the song I was originally going to use for my entry, I bet 99% of you will find this boring

Are you implying pTw had good theater work lmao? Have you watched Woooly's tage? It has some of the shittiest angles I've ever seen. Not to mention, this is the same person who claimed that the sQ tage was "perfect" and we were all idiots for criticizing it. I really couldn't care less about what he told you and if what you're saying is true, it just shows how little people should care about his opinion.. He's made some great videos but he can be a huge fucking idiot.

Also, yeah it's boring af for a Halo video. I'd definitely listen to it while I'm just listening to music but good music does not equal good montage music.

Inxy must have heard about this year's "Most Butthurt" award and wanted to give Crown a run for his money.

I don't think I've ever seen someone make so many posts vehemently trying to convince everyone that their mediocre average montage was anything but that.  

Okay, I don't think Local's angles are all that great but you're fucking delusional if you think your theater work is better than Sillygoose's. And once again, the song is shit montage music. So fucking boring.

This.

Saying you're basically copying the angles just proves my point. There's thousands of H3 MLG montages that also try to use angles like that. It's just watered down and blends in with the crowd. Hence, forgettable... not even your super sweet greatest song a montage has ever had in the history of montages could make someone remember it. Also, how are you not attached to this video? Literally has your name attached to it.

Alright.

You're right.

An eminem song with no gameplay audio or editing is better than mine. So is the social nu metal tage. Sillygoose redefines cinematography and pTw sucks.

>calling me butthurt
cringe

I knew I would lose in the first rounds

You made an Eminem montage with no gameplay audio and it beat mine, so I'm going to call the forum out for having shit taste. Just because this forum has shit taste doesn't mean I'm butthurt. I'm just telling you
literally i'm right and you're wrong

it's whatever really

You made an Eminem montage

Have you ever thought that people might have voted for Hable because he's not a total douche? These contest are primarily a popularity contest. Also Eminem is one of the most popular rappers in hip hop history, wtf?

Yeah but Ween made Ocean man so you should have voted for me instead

I can't tell if we're being trolled anymore.
Either way, it's quite pathetic.  
Second round pools will be going up tonight. Stay tuned.

Haven't been here since I posted Ocean Man

 

 damn are my posts really the only discussion in this thread?  Why is there a random YouTube comment of mine in that kids signature?

I'm glad no one else on the Internet knows I'm here. Y'all are cringe 

I can't tell if we're being trolled anymore.

Yes, you're getting trolled. 

Where's all the people at? 
New polls will go up tomorrow once election craziness is over.
i'm just here to step in to say Local some of the best theater work alongside of krayte this community has ever seen. Saying his theater work is just "good" makes me really want to know what people consider to be better. Maybe his implementation of angles in the Wake up was a little to much, but every single damn angle in that video is insane.  All his videos angles are great, and his 2013 THF Edit comp is nutz yo

Local has the worst theater work I've ever seen out of any editor ever in the history of filmmaking

 

These dumb posts in this thread inspired me to do something else like look at UFO and alien conspiracies 

Dude is the voting process really taking this long? For fucks sake this is poorly run no wonder it will be the last one there is no effort being put into this!
Hable, please save halo contests.

We have so few active members, part of letting the rounds run as long as they have has been to give folks who visit infrequently a chance to vote.

As far as how this competition has been run, I am the ONLY person running it at this point, and I'm also putting nearly $1k of my own money into it. Weren't you one of the people who was supposed to judge the entries and didn't finish?

I established the seeds, I created the pools, I made the announcement threads, the pool threads, the polls, the social media announcements, and more. And of all people you're calling on Hable to save montage competitions?

Yea man, you're the site admin...

As far as being a judge, yes I committed, and I am sorry that real life got in the way, since I came back I have tried my best to help promote/keep this place on my mind.

NV, we couldn't be more grateful that this site is still alive, but it is clearly going to die after this competition is over. Let's try not to let that happen.

I made a trailer, the rules, offered up $500 + the difference between the THF contest prize pool if we couldn't raise it via donations, created an entire website, the intro to the contest here and on HiB all in one day.

 

Took you 3 months to fix the donation button so people could enter the contest on this site lmao.

That's not the truth, you're being intentionally misleading. To claim that you created HiB for the sole purpose of reviving the montage contest when there was never any indication that the contest WASN'T happening is untrue.  You didn't write any rules as far as I can tell. You didn't donate $500 (nor did I see an offer). Don't come in here trying to soak up unearned praise.

It's easy to point to one thing (donation button) and magnify that to the nth degree in order to minimize everything else I've done, but that's a slight of hand. Nothing more.

By the way, where have you been the last ~2 months? Or did you just show up to attempt to shit on me, like Halzred attempted earlier?

I didn't create HiB for the sole purpose of the montage contest - but I did create an entire subdomain for it. Which was a brand new website.

Scace and I wrote a brand new set of rules.

Prize money is in the trailer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0hU-c1HplE

My donation was part of the rules and the official announcement post.

Alright cool. How about the part where no one could join the forum for months on end so that they could enter the contest? Just another small detail?

 

As far as your statement about me being "gone" for 2 months - I'm still making content. I just decided, along with most of the VIP's, that we're not going to slave away at this because you made it clear that you didn't appreciate anything that we do for this website. You took everything we did for granted, and got upset at us for pointing out things that needed to be fixed and were months overdue. 

Once you gave me an offer for this website that valued each active member at about $1,000 apiece, I knew it wasn't worth my time anymore. 

Hell, I even came back and banned some bots for you because I saw members complaining in the Discord last week.
