Episode 3 trailer

[Masta23]

When should we expect to see a trailer for episode 3?

[Emily]

About two weeks before the episode comes out.

[Sir Craigius]

But I want it noooooooow!!! *stamps foot* :(

[Kedri]

Don't worry. We'll get it...

...my, that's a long way off...

I want it nooooooow!!! :(

[tobar]

HONK! HONK!

*watches as Sir Craigius and Kendri fall down a chute*

:p I'm illustrating tobar's post.

[Kedri]

I'm still not sure how people fit an n into my name...'-'

[Dedlok]

Very carefully! :D

Occasionly I get people in City of Heroes that, for some reason, try to fit a c in my name. Dunno why tho. ;)

[Molokov]

It's also amazing how I get a 't' instead of a 'k' quite often.

I mean, I like cocktails, but not exploding ones.

[Anvilania]

[NickTTG]

203 trailer... best. totally tops my previous favorite of 105. be excited, be very excited

[Hero1]

ooohhh

[tabacco]

It is, definitely, the best so far. Even better than 104, which was my favorite :)

[Kedri]

You...taunt us.

[InvaderJim42]

You...taunt us.

They are cruel men, bent on breaking our wills slowly by forcing us to wait patiently for what we want most... and then, when we least expect it, they will carry out their Prime Directive! They will hypnotize us and force us to be happy! Let the truth be told! Telltale Games is really a front for Hugh Bliss' schemes! He had the game designed to illustrate him as the villain to get us to think "it's only a game, it's not real; Hugh Bliss doesn't exist." But he does, oh he does! And soon we will have no choice but to be happy, blissful and serene! SPREAD THE WORD!!!!

It's a conspiracy, I tell you! :p

[NickTTG]

dur...

[Hero1]

dur...

you got something caught in your throat? :rolleyes:

[Jake]

I hate the 203 trailer. So, you know, don't be expecting anything.

Hint: if you liked the 102 trailer you'll be in for a treat.

[tabacco]

Yeah, it really is garbage. I was just trying to make Nick feel better.

[ShaggE]

:p I'm illustrating tobar's post.

How did I miss that?

And how did I miss Kedri's obvious reference to the film?

I must have been reading too many YouTube comments lately, I'm not usually that oblivious to the obvious. -.-

[NickTTG]

yesterday was my "dur..." day. I was "dur..."ing all over the place

[NickTTG]

i think its more inline with the secret canceled 106 trailer. its completely awesome. except this time it wasn't canceled... :(

[tabacco]

...yet.

[Dedlok]

...yet.

Dun dun DUNNNNNNNNNNNN

[NickTTG]

Dun dun DUNNNNNNNNNNNN

you're dead

[Dedlok]

No, no, no. I'm ded... lok! :D

[Zeek]

I demand that the cancelled trailer be an Easter Egg on the Season DVD we get from you guys at the end of the season.

[Hero1]

how could you cancel a trailer and we not have a petition about it!

[Kedri]

How did I miss that?

And how did I miss Kedri's obvious reference to the film?

I must have been reading too many YouTube comments lately, I'm not usually that oblivious to the obvious. -.-

I made a movie reference? Ah, well. I suppose you'd have to be pretty clever not to make one with three words...

[ShaggE]

Sorry, I meant Tobar.

[Jake]

I demand that the cancelled trailer be an Easter Egg on the Season DVD we get from you guys at the end of the season.

You didn't find it on the Season One DVD?

[Zeek]

Not unless you are talking about the 106 trailer that was on the website as well as on the DVD. All I found on that DVD was the pirate in the bottle footage and the rat puppet easter eggs. I ended up putting it through WMP to see the Sea Monkey and Steve at ComiCon videos you guys had on your website at one point.

[Zachspyfox033]

When will the trailer be up? If its already up can someone post a link to it?

[wisp]

About two weeks before the episode comes out.
so, i guess this means 1st of feburary..roughly.

[Trixie]

only around, 7 days? AHHHH!!!

[mikew]

yeah it's not that great. it's mostly just Sam playing the banjo for about a half hour and then he explodes. I'm not sure what it means

[tabacco]

It's very avant-garde

I was lying, sadly :( Nick's uncompleted ep 6 trailer isnt on the disc anywhere... though there is mention of it if you look around.

[NickTTG]

if i can, I'll try and post a "fan vid" on youtube. its temp music was copywrite protected, which was bad. i'll look into it

[NickTTG]

there ARE 2 secret mentions of the ep6 cancelled trailer on the DVD. if u find them, you will win my approval and an invitation to my birthday party.

[NickTTG]

Someone posted this weird video

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=XzCr2Gyo2xs

crazy...

[Hero1]

yeah I like the gametap trailers cause they actually tell me what the episode is about

[LuigiHann]

I find the GT trailers tend to give too much away. Somewhere between there's a happy medium.

[jmm]

Great tube, Nick.
The music was superb, the basic idea was good but it gave away too much though.

[splash1]

wow that was awesome but was it the unfinished trailer from the DVD?

[NickTTG]

half way through the production of that trailer, I was asked to make a teaser. the teaser eventually became the real one. I was a very sad boy. but now i'm happy because when I look back at it, it was garbage. the final shots are still killer though :)

[Zeek]

the final shots are still killer though :)That they are. That they are. :D

[Mel]

I liked the whole thing. :D

[splash1]

promise me..to not make 205 trailer short...PROMISE ME, jk

[Dedlok]

I liked the trailer but I thought the stills of Sam Max and Bliss w/ their names looked kinda cheesy, but that's prob because it wasn't final (art wise anyway).

But thought the song fit quite well. I forget the name of it and what it's from tho.

[tabacco]

O Fortuna, from Carmina Burana, by Carl Orff

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TGZFYG/ for samples of the rest. (That's not the particular performance from that video, I just picked a random one off amazon)

[splash1]

the trailer was good but why'd you use the Teaser as the real Trailer?

[tabacco]

Among other things, although epic, the canceled trailer was pretty spoilerey. Plus it gave Nick something to complain about in his secret commentary :)

[splash1]

ah ha :)

[Sir Craigius]

*calling from bottom of chute* Hello? Can anyone hear me? I'm still alive, just very badly burned! Could someone call an ambulance please? :confused:

[Zeek]

I want to intern at TTG so I can complain about my designs getting the axe. :D Oh, wait, I don't have the money to get out to California.

[Kedri]

Awesome trailer. Makes me feel like playing Episode 6 again. :D

[Mel]

*calling from bottom of chute* Hello? Can anyone hear me? I'm still alive, just very badly burned! Could someone call an ambulance please? :confused:

*dials 911*

[Jake]

the trailer was good but why'd you use the Teaser as the real Trailer?

The music (O Fortuna, as Doug mentioned) is copyrighted. By the end of episode 106's production, when that trailer was being built, people were feeling pretty strapped for time, and Jared didn't have time to write a piece of original music for the trailer.

[Zeek]

I thought O Fortuna was public domain since it's been 70 years since it was written, and probably well past 20 years since the original composor's death. Who extended the copyright?

EDIT: Wait, is it 20 or 50 years after the original artist's death when creative material becomes public domain unless someone extends their copyright ownership?

[Jake]

Even if the song itself is public domain, specific recordings of it are owned by people, and any recording of it you'd want to use are still owned by someone.

[Dedlok]

*calling from bottom of chute* Hello? Can anyone hear me? I'm still alive, just very badly burned! Could someone call an ambulance please? :confused:


*picks up phone*

Yeah... He's still alive down there... Right... You know what to do...

*time passes*

*door opens downstairs*

*Shot is heard*

[Sir Craigius]

*hears door open* Oh hi! Im glad you found me. Listen, I'm very badly burned, so If you could....

*gunshot*

YOU SHOT ME!!! You shot me right in the arm! Why would you....

*gunshot*

*long silence*

*sound of door slamming*

[Murray the Chao]

We'll probably bee seeing the Ep.3 trailer very soon as it less than a week until Febulous.

[splash1]

you're right it won't be long, possibly Febuary 1st or January 30 or 31 or any other date

[Mysterysheep]

*hears door open* Oh hi! Im glad you found me. Listen, I'm very badly burned, so If you could....

*gunshot*

YOU SHOT ME!!! You shot me right in the arm! Why would you....

*gunshot*

Aaaah.. the beauty of movie references. ;)

[tobar]

I guess now we'll never know why Sir Craigius was wearing a red dress.....

[DrakeFox]

I think I might be taking damage from the Sam & Max style humour, but the way information on the new trailer is dangled just out of our reach made me think of a short dialog from Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

"You seem to be having a problem with your respiration
I do?
Yes, you're breathing.
That's not a problem
It is from where I'm standing. Let me help you with that tie of yours."

Or in short. Hands up and hand over that trailer

[Hero1]

we don't get any machinimas so cant we at least get the trailers a little early we need something in that gap between episodes

[Jake]

trailer tomorrow

[xChri5x]

*can't wait*

[splash1]

oh boy can't wait wait wait!!!!:D

[Hero1]

ooohh nice

[Dangerzone]

see how they love tormenting us... now i wont be able to sleep tonight :rolleyes:

[unsilviu]

goody

[tabacco]

Psst... http://www.telltalegames.com/samandmax/nightoftheravingdead

[Mirko]

Oh! Nice!

[splash1]

oh sweet :D, but if it's called Night of the Raving Dead...then why is it Day Time?

[Guybrush Threepwood]

I think I just wet myself.
New driving game!
Sybil's!
Harry Moleman!

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA! SAM & MAX DANCING! I know I just wet myself.

[Mysterysheep]

Never in my life did I think I'd see Sam & Max dancing with zombies....... ever!
Strangest trailer yet and I liked the old film references :D

[Emily]

oh sweet :D, but if it's called Night of the Raving Dead...then why is it Day Time?

[splash1]

ah that explains it.....i wanted to see the neighborhood at night :(

[Mysterysheep]

Released on a Wednesday? Not that I'm complaining, just confused. Lemme guess is it because we're all good boys and girls :D

[NickTTG]

who says we're ahead of schedule? ;)

[splash1]

the.....page of 203?

[Mysterysheep]

Damn I love you TT! You're what makes life worth living!

.....

Maybe that was a bit too much..... NAAAH! :p

[marsan]

You have really toped yourself this time, Nick. Here's a million dollars!

[Jake]

Released on a Wednesday? Not that I'm complaining, just confused. Lemme guess is it because we're all good boys and girls :D

It's GameTap related. Their system update hits on a Tuesday that week for some reason unrelated to us, but we're tagging along!

[splash1]

well it could've done without the dance party but i like it :)

[NickTTG]

You have really toped yourself this time, Nick. Here's a million dollars!

dude... i will totally take your million! but I'm afraid I might quit my job if I had a million dollars... so I'm just gonna have to turn you down :(

[splash1]

It's GameTap related. Their system update hits on a Tuesday that week for some reason unrelated to us, but we're tagging along!
yay we get it a day early :)

[Mysterysheep]

Dance music reminds me of Rockstar's Table Tennis including Sam and Max in slow mo :D

[Laserschwert]

The only thing that bothers me a bit, are the terrible German title-cards... you could've just asked some of your fellow German forumites to do proper translations.

On the other hand, they increase the trash-factor by about a mile...

Ah, I can't decide!

[splash1]

yeah the trailer deffinetly could've done without the German Cards

The English translation isn't too hot, either. Weird.

[mikew]

Wait, I do not know. What's wrong with the translation? Seems also looks good. :(

[xtrmntr]

I am damn unsatisfied to be killed in this way... (http://www.esatclear.ie/~irish.trade/bj000004.htm?id=4)

[splash1]

well the English ones are small and boring, now if you switch them around
it would be ok

[NickTTG]

/emote trynottosmacksplash1

[splash1]

Nick you're scaring me :(

[ATMachine]

When I saw the zombie rave with Sam and Max in the middle, the first thing I thought of was the St. Lavinia's Day dance from the old Freelance Police trailer. Anyone else notice the similarity?

[ShaggE]

That was great :D Loved the music at the end.

[Chuck]

I love the comment on the GameTrailers site, complaining that GT would add subtitles for an English-language game video but not to any of their Japanese videos.

Gotta love the internets.

[InvaderJim42]

You should have actually put car keys on that vampire's nipple ring, like in the concept art. That'd have made it even more amusing!

[splash1]

aye :)

[tobar]

You should have actually put car keys on that vampire's nipple ring, like in the concept art. That'd have made it even more amusing!

I agree. Also....AWESOME TRAILER!!!!!!!!!! This looks to be a real standout episode!

[Mario]

I loved the first part of the trailer. Although the German title-cards were definitely not so hot. That spoiled the surprisingly authentic Murnau/Dreyer feeling a little bit. The rest of the trailer was much more traditional, but still nice.

[Harald B]

It's GameTap related. Their system update hits on a Tuesday that week for some reason unrelated to us, but we're tagging along!So the release on the 13th is actually not intentional? It's an omen, I tell you!
Once again a brilliant trailer, by the way. Between that and what I'm seeing in the screenshots it looks like this'll be the mind-blowing episode I've been waiting for.

[Randulf]

The only thing that bothers me a bit, are the terrible German title-cards... you could've just asked some of your fellow German forumites to do proper translations.

On the other hand, they increase the trash-factor by about a mile...

Ah, I can't decide!

It'll be funnier if they showed grammatical German translated into pidgin English, like "Sam and Max, Not-on-staff Police"

[Murray the Chao]

Never in my life did I think I'd see Sam & Max dancing with zombies....... ever!
Yeah, that's more of an Earthworm Jim thing.

[Mysterysheep]

Yeah, that's more of an Earthworm Jim thing.

Exactly! :D
