Hey, fyi the creators of Beyond Black Mesa have announced they will be releasing the 12 min movie online sometime January 21st. Heres the source
BLACK MESA IS COMING OUT IN THE 21ST! SPREAD THE WORD BOYS!
And cue the Trolls.
not bm, bbm.
Also, can’t wait. :awesome:.jpg
Ah ffs, and I just blew my load for nothing.
Oh its never for nothing
By the way, what about that Escape City 17 thing? Are they ever going to make a second episode?
Hm yea I kinda forgot about that, and what about that CG I’m the Freeman thing haven’t heard much about that lately.
It’s only 12 minutes long? I was expecting at least an hour
wait wait wait… the movie is 12 fucking minutes?
Edit: Ninja o: (like an hour early ninja)
Still longer than the trailer.
And probably just as terrible.
I think they said they got caught up in making some sort of feature-length film and the second episode would be delayed until further notice. That I’m the Freeman thing was also pretty cool but it was just one guy’s tech demo, nothing on a full-length/improved version was ever stated AFAIK
Maybe a little bit more thought with casting should have been considered. Other than that, the filming style looks really good for an independent sci-fi film.
And I highly doubt that these guys would have had the budget for an hour long film…
It isn’t too bad but there’s a bit where a guy gets out a hologram thing which is like wut. He’s a rebel that magically has a black mesa hologram thing which even Black Mesa didn’t have. But meh
haha, I saw that in the trailer.
This short film is just a way for these guys to put something in their portfolio is what it really comes down to IMO. And the Special Effects guys look like they did a good job with the holographic watch or whatever that guy is wearing. You can blame the writers for that nonsense. Hopefully the rest of the short film is written better.
I just don’t want to be too judgmental until I see the full 12 minutes of it really. Then, after that it is fair game!
Also the headcrab zombies lack headcrabs
Moreover, they needed only 1200 $ to make it. Looks impressive, with this little amount of money. And it’s gonna be released for free, so I can’t complain, that it’s only 12 minutes long.
edit: I just realized that there is no information on the site, that it’s only 12 minutes long, where does this info come from?
it cost $1200 to make. it’s 12 minutes long. this movie is worth $100 a minute.
wasn’t concrete hustle at least half an hour? i could go check but i’m lazy.
I read it in an interview made a lil while ago
