In the first part of a three part series covering the filmography of Czech-American filmmaker Miloš Forman, I discuss his first four films: Black Peter, Loves of a Blonde, The Firemen's Ball, and Taking Off.
Parts 2 and 3 should be coming out sometime later.

In 1996, a software developer working at Microsoft decided to quit his job and go create a game development studio. His name was Gabe Newell, and the company he founded was Valve. 2 years later, Valve released it's first game, Half Life, to critical acclaim. It's impact on video games and the video game industry is huge, leading to the creation of many of PC gaming's greatest games, like Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike Source. This video is a comedic look back at why Half Life is still a good game and why it was so revolutionary at it's release.
Feel free to leave a comment below!
P.S. Look, I know the narration is bad; I'm working on it.

In 1998, a small game development studio named Valve created and released Half Life, a revolutionary, new First Person Shooter to worldwide critical acclaim, winning over 50 game of the year awards. 6 years later, Valve released a sequel to the smash hit. It was known as Half Life 2, and would go down in history as being one of the greatest video games ever; but why exactly is Half Life 2 arguably one of the best video games ever made? Find out in this informative and comedic look back at Half Life 2.
P.S. The video gets choppy towards the middle of it, this is due to me procrastinating (like an idiot) and also me using a new mic i bought in the last part of the vid. I'm hoping on changing things up a bit for the next one so it isn't so long and boring (and sucks less!).

*NOTE* This film was written and filmed BEFORE the Election occurred, so don't get your knickers in a twist
Fed up with the current U.S political landscape, Micheal Hunt is dared by his best-friend to run for the presidency, but ends up receiving more than he bargained for.
This video is (mostly) the reason why I haven't posted in awhile; more regular posts (hopefully) will come in the future.

An angry and virile rant about hope in a world drowning in despair.
Yes, I know the audio peaks repeatedly and the video is pretty shitty; I did the audio in one take and can't be bothered to improve the video so just fuck off.
Music Used:

Phillip Glass - Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters Soundtrack
Also don't start quoting Ligotti, Zapffe, or Cioran at me in the comments section.

A crappy short film shot in a day. Inspired by some pretentious Danish filmmakers.
