The Grunt OUT NOW, COME AND GET IT!

Uh... He's 14. Sure looks 12.
The main problem with the movie was the dialouge. Some simple voice overs, and redo's of the music tracks could fix the problem.

For something that hasn't been done before it was pretty good. There was just a few typos in the text and some of the dialogue you couldn't hear properly (like when he's dreaming), but overall it was quite good.

Thanks for the comments guys. I may possibly make a second one next summer. If I do I will work on the storyline a lot more. Longer fight scenes, and better songs.

By the way, that 'baby' song (Extreme Days) was requested to be in there by someone. He acted in the movie and said he wanted at least 1 of his songs (Not saying any names... No not my bro <_< ).

Anyway, I may have been the first to make a soaker movie, but I'm hoping I'm not the last. By making this I was hoping it would influence other people to do better which I'm sure they can.

So next summer why don't y'all get out your cameras, call over your friends and make an awesome soaker vid. Of course... After you got a great storyline... Something I skipped :'(.

Oh yeah... I'm 14 <_<

14, 12, thats just 2 years difference.

[Soakologist]

14=12 by my math. :huh:






:P

I'd love to, unfortunately one major problem is that I don't have a digital video camera. If I had...it might actually get somewhere.

The CFM is planning to make a movie of the 2nd Battle of Ridgewood. No bad script or acting; real battle scenes in a real water war. We have good camera and editing experience, so there won't be many technical flaws. I'm not going to do any more advertsing, it'll take away from the point of this topic, just letting you know that there is a bright future for new soaker vidoes.

[Storm]

Does any of your friends have a video camera Spinner?

Glad to hear your making some vids dux. How many people do you think you'll have?

[DX]

If things went the way I want we would have all 20 people. [10v10] We could've filmed the 1st Battle of Ridgewood, but it wasn't worth it, the largest amount of people who came was 6. The CFM also has a skirmish video, but I'm not sure when we are going to edit it. Nibordude has that footage on his video camera. We might finish that this year, I'm not sure.

Wow, sounds pretty good. If you need any space, feel free to ask, once we get the new host it's 500 megs and twice as much bandwith...

[NiborDude]

Dux and I have lots of plans. I think the best we can do over the winter is to do some modding videos. I think the quickest and least time consuming one will be the CFV movie. I'll let you know when we're finished with it.

[Storm]

Do you plan on getting paid hosting?

[DX]

Probably not. I really prefer not to waste money on a website or in that case, any internet based activity at all [except Ebay]. I've been able to get everything I do online for free, and the planned new site host doesn't force ads and has plenty of space. Therefore, the site can be made professional looking using just some good html.

[Storm]

Good bandwith to?

[DX]

Its got plenty, 10 gigs per site. The way we are going to create the site gives us 20 gigs of bandwidth though.
