Pete Posted February 25, 2004 Report Share Posted February 25, 2004 The trailer for the fan-made X-COM movie "This is X-COM" has been released at whoisjohnnebthos.com for you all to marvel at and spread the word about. pocthesaint and his company of RSC-standard (ish ) actors have done a wonderful job so head over there now and grab it while you can! If anyone has some webspace and a lot of bandwidth and is feeling generous, you can help by hosting mirrors of this download. If anyone is feeling particularly generous and has LOADS of bandwidth and a fair chunk of disk space, please contact pocthesaint with regards to hosting the full length movie. Well done guys!

Strong Bob Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Excellent. The look, the emotion, the music... *Gurgle!* One problem... Too much teasing! The Ethereal in a discolored shot? Only showing the Chrysalid's hand? MUST... SEE... MORE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocthesaint Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Yes the etheral is discolored.... What you were looking at was alot of PRE-VIS's... "THIS IS X-COM" is a behind the scenes look at X-COM The Movie!!! "This is X-COM" Should be release sometime by the 1st week of march... provided someone can grant us some webspace =] Pretty Please Also... Please Kazaa the heck out of the trailer...

Strong Bob Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I'm not a Kazaa user. (No love for illegal soft. ) Maybe I can get one of my friend's websites to host it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Hoz Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Kazaa is'nt technically illegal....I'll share it if my Kazaa works- I liked the sectoid sketch with "eyes serve no purpose",and it gave mea strange thought-maybe that's where sectoids keep their grenades?Maybe that's why their head is so large?

ShadowBlade Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 Hehehe, the trailer was very nice, I laughed a bit, but it's neat anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JellyfishGreen Posted February 26, 2004 Report Share Posted February 26, 2004 I had to download a new set of codecs and a new player to see it, but I saw it! Awesome and I'm especially impressed with the armor designer! :bomber: Hmm, ideas involving my old paintball squad, a handheld camera, and a script come to mind.So where are you based? I don't have bandwidth to offer, but how else could we help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocthesaint Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 Spread the word... Share it on Kazaa if you do that... Join WIJN for lastest updates... Support your local JNP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 Indeed, I watched it again last night and it's very well done. The musci sounds familiar though... where might I have heard it before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strong Bob Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 Ol' Poc did say JohnNebthos was really a band. I assumed that the music was original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattler Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 I get this odd color scheme where all reds are blue and all blues are red. Unless of course that rookie's face was actually suppose to be blueish and his armour orangish red. Any help on getting the colors back to normal would be much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knight_of_the_ravens Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 yeah i have to admit it was pretty cool...i did dig the music alot too...where did the great tunes come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutedge Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Kazaa, Bah. Use bittorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtsurge Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 What were the codecs you downloaded to update windows media player. I could not make it play with the video, and only had the music. Can you send the website address that shows where to download the codecs. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Hoz Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Kazaa, Bah.Use BitTorrent:crazy: -you know why not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocthesaint Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Well make you sure you've dloaded all the windows updates and make sure your windows media player is version 9... (the lastest version) hope that helps... -SAINT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TabulaRasa Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 I thought the music was great, although there were very little special effects. It makes me think... I WANNA SEE MORE!!!!!! I really was looking forward to seeing one of the aliens, or maybe the X-COM base, inside a UFO. It was okay, but I wanted to see something other than the guy running in a forest wearing the armour (which looked pretty cool ) One more thing, seeing this trailer, it looks like they are going to do it in color, not black and white, that would make me want to see it a lot!

Crazy Photon Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 D'loaded and put on xMule The trailer was good, although I'd suggest you make a divx/xvid version of it as the codec you are using is quite a resource hog even on my machine (and on Linux it's too choppy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pocthesaint Posted March 2, 2004 Report Share Posted March 2, 2004 Fear not... "This is X-COM" will probably be in divx.... And now... I tease you once again... Z3px's Trailer of "This is X-COM" Some of you may have seen this or maybe not... "This is X-COM" is going to be pushed back and hopefully released on March 23rd... Were still looking for webspace....

Space Voyager Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 HE HE HE, love it! Best laugh I've had in a long time... Can't wait for the full movie! Perhaps sharing it though e-mule will help? Oh, oh, and since I post so little, I rarely have an opportunity to express my deepest feelings, so I'll "abuse" this post: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightshade Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 Well since its downloading at 963 kb's a second :')Anyone want to give me the general gist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekproxy Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 I heard that it was suposed to come out around what, March 23rd? It's March 25th... where is it?! I want this movie pretty hard, it would be impossible for it to be completely horrible, I just love X-Com that much. Looks like you guys did a good job by the demo though. I almost nutted myself seeing that guy in the personal armor. :-P. WANT MOVIE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
