Deus Ex Machina: Episode Two - "Decapitator" (Halo 3 Machinima)

[BlueEchoe5]

I remember watching this 2 days after its release. It was the first Halo 3 machinima I've ever watched and is the video which helped me find Machinima.

Thanks DigitalPh33r.

[holyswordsmanoffaith]

Fuck this is a great series =).

Love the music to death as well.

[yourmom654321]

lol, that "island" is where michael's base is. No wonder he go there in time.

[antonfatso]

It's when I watch machinima like this when I really regret getting a ps3.

[ReachFour]

" ROBBING BANKS N SHIT! " lol

[usaclan11]

*john hears breathing coming behind him, turns around* OH WHAT THE F^CK....lol

[superspartan1123]

how many likes has this video recieved?

ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!

[MidoriNoLink]

Whats the song in the titles?

[pokemaster261]

like if you love the music from 0.50 to 1.25

[MidoriNoLink]

whats the song at 00:50?

[Cheesyman125]

Wow Jon really likes muse!

[Thisdude12]

Ok so Mike opens the gate from the inside

then Jon closes it from the inside.

but then the "bad guy" couldnt reopen it from the inside?

[TKGoat]

wait when he gets to high ground is it supposed to be raining?

[Tyhir559]

Thumbs up if jon should reboot this series using halo reach

[masterChief929]

@Tyhir559 But then what armor would he use for Dues Ex? Not tryin' to be a downer, certainly would be interesting and it might work out better for certain sequences... but what sort of armor would he use? Hayabusa isn't in Halo Reach... sadly.

[holyswordsmanoffaith]

@Tyhir559 What was he using for these ones then? O.o.

[googleinc123]

my console got banned but then a miracle happened....

i

was

unbanned

:D

SWEET

[FALLOUTVEAGASBOY12]

lol beserker sound

[xtremenator2]

The main character is kinda boring to listen to because he his very uncharismatic. I know he's supposed to be all serious and stuff, but even serious actors have some charisma =p.

[TheScorpion667]

@xtremenator2 I think it makes him more realistic.... he doesn't have the superhero mentality and he's doing it out of duty. He's easier to relate to that way. Not all 'heroes' are gonna have all the charismatic flare of Spiderman etc. Batman was never really a charismatic hero in the same sense.

[xtremenator2]

@TheScorpion667 Well there's being realistic, and there's being entertaining. If batman was just a plain talking guy, he would be half as entertaining/ interesting ( which is the whole point of the videos; entertaining ).

[xtremenator2]

@TheScorpion667 I don't need him to be some exciting guy, just he sounds like every other teenager and I am looking for something new I guess.

[CHIllKlD17]

thumbs up if you miss the old halo 3!!

[D4N13L721994]

o yeah HYSTERIAAAAAA

[SirKil0t]

front doors locked I can't get it

(Massive smashed whole just to the left) LOL!

[drudigger]

y does machinima suck now?

[HerpDerpMerps]

@drudigger what do you mean "now"? This was made 4 years ago...

[drudigger]

@HerpDerpMerps exactly...... (do you not understand my comment)

[HerpDerpMerps]

@drudigger Sorry kind of hard to tell if you're being sarcastic or you're ignorant without hearing vocal indications.

[Alzerak]

considering the kinda stuff this Jon can do now he would totally rock the machinima world if he finished the series

[Akings100]

nub

[kizz138]

What's the song that plays when DEM is being chased by the Decapitator? any help Appreciated please :)

[TheWorldBroadcast]

@kizz138 It's from Gears of War I think?

[Akings100]

@TheWorldBroadcast UR A FUCKING RETARD

[TheWorldBroadcast]

@Akings100 Why are you yelling?

[JCDenton112788]

I just fucking hate adds.

[davidgsr2k]

@JCDenton112788 I love the adds..really love the ones that are 45 seconds long , so that it leads me to read all the comments and then spoil the whole thing and i never even watch the video

[JCDenton112788]

@davidgsr2k same here.

[ROCKONZOMBIESLAYER]

@lukeizcoming4u hater

[purplerocks1]

@lukeizcoming4u

obviously you dont know story

he should be making lots of money for this!

[kingofkingsG]

whats the theme song for Deus Ex Machina?

[oUSHBeZz]

Back in the day when machinima's were better

[DBZJohnny123]

@oUSHBeZz no way, there are alot more machinimas made by jon that are as good like arby n the chief and on life remaining, and why is it that people seem to like the past more than the present

[ThePCShadow]

@DBZJohnny123 because nowadays machinima is flooded with retarded black ops gameplay

[shadowario]

@DBZJohnny123 He's talking about machinima's in general, Arby 'n' the chief is still funny but it was funnier back then.

[LemurMan2008]

@oUSHBeZz there are still plenty of good new machinimas. stop acting old ;D. jk

[LemurMan2008]

@oUSHBeZz but yeah...... there are always some crap vids that machinima has...... but there is still a lot of good stuff

[ILostMyIcecream]

I searched for metro 2033 fear the future and ended up here? Oh well...

[TheDoubleCrossers]

the ending song really fits the video....

[urha90n71]

what's the name of the song when the doctor dies?

[TheNJerk]

Oh man, I am watching this again and LOVING the cheesiness of the mediocre effects. It makes me want to watch it so much more.

[ghettoburger00]

this is the best show of halo

[ecnorris32]

you cant close the doors on high ground can you

[HCadrenaline]

@ecnorris32

He most likely just rewinded the clip of the doors opening to make it look like that the doors where closing

[MrLizardKing96]

@ecnorris32 No, he just rewinded the footage of it opening.

[ZombieSoldier224]

his is a good series but at the end john fucked it up.

[shadowflick]

id say a little too much cussing... js

[ProjectTelum]

The rain effect is shitty hey.

[SaurfangV]

536 people had their heads lobbed off by the decapitator

[Zenithnoon12]

jon takes everyday media and makes it halo like, toy story, law and order, batman, etc.

[BOMBJAKEY204]

hey um digitalph33r your basically made a halo version of batman beyond

[FieryWish]

Muse.......... one hell of an epic group ^_^

[TheStuartCarson]

@FieryWish Whats the name of the song :) ?

[FieryWish]

@TheStuartCarson It's called Hysteria by Muse :). When I saw the comment I thought.... 'Crap, I can't remember' but the first song I tried was the song so.... Win xD lol

[TheStuartCarson]

@FieryWish Ah ha xD Well I'm glad you did. Thanks man!

[FieryWish]

@TheStuartCarson Chick ;D hehe. No worries though xD

[TheFpsNinja]

This is DigitalPh33r's greatest work, in my opinion. Arby in the Chief just sounds like gibberish.

[MasterAizakku]

Fair haired child anyone?

[ch1ck3n1000]

[TheHypersniper0812]

[Xboxlover806]

You kno, when I first saw this, I thought this said Deus Ex Machinima, no Machina!

[UniversalWhatnot]

Dear god, it's been 4 years, the series has been basically disowned, and I still love the hell out of it.

[OFarkO428Productions]

[ZombiePelican]

BERSERKER!!!!

[BillyandBarry]

thumbs up if jon should upload the final episode to his original youtube account.

[CorrinMovies]

sounds like Kr1tiKal

[BrEnNo1023]

BAHAHAHA muse again! as if the whole spartan bio-augmenting references and the ceramic bone ossification reference and the whole machinima itself isn't cool enough, you have to inject some muse into it too?

i'm doing things a little backward, i watched the new stuff first, and i'm working towards the old stuff, this is still just as badass.

[justinbieberfangg37]

machinima im a big fan of your vids can you please comment on my vids?

[alanoasiss]

1) Hold your breath.

2) Copy all of these steps.

3) Go to two other video.

4) Paste it in the comments.

If you can do all of this without breathing you're a good Sniper

[mayuri206]

I noticed when it said the words decapitator, the music playing was from the game enternal darkness sanitys requiem.

[FunnyHaloVids]

@TheArcticKid Hysteria by Muse.

[PatriotGabe]

Damn it was an elite. Man i was hoping it would be like the meta or something but oh well still epic

[midprod]

Hey Jon I just wanted to say that Im a big fan of DEX, and you have inspired me to create my own web series. The rest of you guys can check out the first two episodes on my channel, and give me some feedback good or bad.

[joebobn00]

533+ people dont like their heads coming off

[aDinosaurMadeOfLegos]

[vidrine12]

[hollowpionttt]

epic



[PureHayabusa]

digitalph33r made this? fuck hes made arby n the chief and this, this guys a genius

[purplerocks1]

@PureHayabusa

[dracoj]

epic.......

[n00b4life8]

This is a steaming pile of awsome

[ShadowChaotix]

Hm... Rather good organization and camera usage.

Though, in all seriousness, the words "Deus Ex Machina" made Appleseed: Deus Ex Machina come to mind.

[Sandstorm4]

Can anyone tell me the song that starts at 48 seconds in?

[ConnorBaun]

@Sandstorm4 Grace by Jeff Buckley. I actually sent Jon an email asking him the same thing about a year ago and this is what he said.

[nightral8I4]

The scientist kind of reminds me of Kabuto.

[TheBronze3ye]

hay you know that Dues can make all power divot to shields yeah?

i think bungie got the armour lock idea in reach from this

[ShiftKnife]

@TheBronze3ye The Chief used his armor lock to survive the fall from orbit at the end of Halo 2. They've had the idea since then, or earlier, considering the 'overshields' you see in the games.

[TheBronze3ye]

@ShiftKnife :(

[Animelord1994]

jon cjg aka digital ph33r is a genius with stroylines i mean arby and the cheif dues ex machina and hard justice are all brilliant

[MrLastlived]

[TheTheSmartGuy]

@MrLastlived

yeah i wikied it to!

[sickoffindinganame]

@TheTheSmartGuy A deus ex machina (pronounced /ˈdeɪ.əs ɛks ˈmɑːkiːnə/ or /ˈdiː.əs ɛks ˈmækɨnə/,[1] DAY-əs eks MAH-kee-nə) (Latin for "god out of the machine"; plural: dei ex machina) is a plot device whereby a seemingly inextricable problem is suddenly and abruptly solved with the contrived and unexpected intervention of some new character, ability, or object.

both meanings apply

[malastrome15]
