After our disappointing loss in the Nintendo Short Cuts Competition, Team Awesome decided to focus it's attention on how to create a video that would win us truckloads of trophies and statues. Taking our cue from the Academy, we considered doing a film about the mentally disabled, a famous musician that had recently died, or anything starring a prostitute with a heart of gold. Then, we saw There Will Be Blood while playing The Oregon Trail and a revelation hit us...we're never gonna win any awards. Also, the pairing of these two things would be like PB & J -- perfect.

Team Awesome is proud to announce the completion of their newest video, The Oregon Trailer. Part parody of the Academy Award winning film, There Will Be Blood, part parody of the Apple IIe classic, The Oregon Trail, the trailer is the next in a series of video game trailers that has launched Team Awesome from obscurity...into slightly less obscurity.

Thanks for watching!!!

  • Oregon is pronounced ORYGUN not ORE-GONE.

  • Unless you're an old settler in the west...in which case it's pronounced however you want it to be.

  • This is my favorite one yet. i loved the contra movie trailer a lot, but this is awesome. What program do you use to use the video game characters and land in the live action film if you dont mind me asking.

  • We used Final Cut to remove the greenscreen. It has a filter in it that does the trick

  • Sorry...to put the video game characters into the live action, we used Adobe Photoshop to cut out the characters and placed them into Final Cut.

  • I'm from Oregon. I can say without a doubt that the actors in this movie are pronouncing the name of the state incorrectly. One of the uploader comments stated that it's pronounced ORYGUN. No. No it is not. It's not pronounced ORE-GONE either really. It's more pronounced like ORGAN. Like the instrument, or the things inside you.

  • Great acting!!!

  • lol ore-gone good stuff

  • Greatest milkshake reference ever.

  • I know it's for Oregon Trail, I've played it before. But the trailer spoofs There Will Be Blood :P

  • Then youre just as old as me, friend! I remember playin this in primary school on a then cutting edge 286! Those were the days!

  • No, this is a spoof trailer for the classic 80s game 'Oregon Trail', & all its green and black monochrome glory. You probably weren't born when it came out.

  • Oh man this is going to make me sound old but i remember playing this game it was so awesome. I played it at school as much as i could that and a gold mining one too. Oh man that was back when it was fun to have computers in school.

  • 5/5 for "here lies poop jenkins".

    Hope you guys do some more vids soon.
