Ah... much better.
Damn... I love your posts!

Absolutely incredible. Truly fantastic, and the high standard to which I hold you.

Not happening, no, I don't care how brilliant I-20 is. Because the other videos I intend to make (see the above-mentioned list of 40) include several epic ones.
We'll see... *nods sagely*

If I20 is only half as awesome as the vibes suggest, you won't be able to resit.

Screw him; he seems to be the stem of several "I'm glad our armed forces individuals are dying" comments on youtube, therefore his words are equal to that of horse manure.

Good God, really? Ugh... THAT just proclaims a**hatness of a staggering degree.

Still, glad to see others are enjoying it.

As always, a fantastic trailer, Michelle. Kudos to you! It was positively cinematic.

It WAS a very cool shot, but I decided it was a bit spoilerish, so I decided against it.

Let's make this interesting.

In the spirit of Trading Places, I bet you 1 Inf that you won't be able to resist, and will make an I20 Trailer.

What? Because you didn't use Mario Brothers?

BTW... this is the last promotional trailer I'm doing for COH. I know I've retired before, and I came back. And I'll still be making videos, but I want to diversify my production reel with other stuff, like music vids, commercials for other media, etc (these will include more COH vids, just not TRAILERS).
That will open up more avenues for creativity, methinks. The Issue Trailers are certainly great, but they do impose certain constraints. I should think a CoH music video would be great.

And yet another Bravo for your Issue 19 work.

I would like to officially state that rumors of my capture have been greatly exaggerated. Samuraiko must have captured some other individual who goes by the name of Goliath. My legal team has been consulted regarding this matter.


Tremendous trailer as always, Sam. Paragon's gonna have to step it up for I20 if you're actually gonna step down for realsies this time.

Excellent job as always, D_R.
I loved the opening Apex grieving over WW scene, and the underwater shot was perfect. Music was awesome, and pacing was spot on.

Here's a funny little transcript:

Rangle: Hey, hun... look at this... isn't that you?
Me: Yes dear, and you're in there too, along with the scrapper... fighting the big guy that I de-buffed.
Rangle: I am?... Oh, hey! I am! kewl.

Thanks for letting us help out, give us an in-game holler anytime.

Fantastic.

Sad to see you're giving up the CoH promos. They were far superior to anything Paragon Studio put out.

If this does not get people into CoH, then there is something seriously wrong with them!

I cannot understand why no one at Paragon Studios is knocking on your door, or even breaking it down to make you work for them! Ah well, thier loss.

I'd like to say as usual, great work, but I believe you have outdone yourself.

I have occasionally wondered just how many people I have either gotten into the game, gotten back into the game, or KEPT in the game with my videos, but I have no way of finding out. Sometimes folks post it on my YT channel (my personal favorite of all time was "I am cancelling my WoW account RIGHT NOW and buying COH"), but in general, no idea. (I'd love to know, though!)

And thanks, by the way, for all of the compliments. I'm glad you guys liked it! I learned a few new tricks with this one, so I'm looking forward to seeing what I can do with my upcoming projects.

That one was a groundbreaker for me... and it was great fun having hubby and friends doing the voiceover work. And considering how much I've learned since then, part of me wants to go back and redo that video PROPERLY. Maybe one day...

Oh, DR.

You're just going to MAKE me get more memory so I can see i19 in all its true glory, aren't you? That underwater shot was beautiful!

Thank god for Cybermonday, or whatever the heck they're calling it.

I continue to love your stuff, and will follow whatever you do in the future to be sure!

*smirks* You can ask Dark Ether about what happened the last time someone bet against me on the forums... (IIRC, it was a bet for one million inf, but as a lady, I've declined actually collecting - it would be uncouth.)

However, I intend to stand firm on this one. Issue awesomeness will not be enough to prompt my return to CoH trailerdom. If it's that awesome, someone else should be sufficiently inspired to make a trailer.
