Introduction to the Review=====Basically this review was made to show that Ostis isn't the only one who is willing to take his time to write reviews for awesome stunt videos and the fact that my reviews are way better than his ( , even though its true). This stunt video was first planned together by Urban Legend and then Tackleberry took over the roll of editing the video. Then it took quite and while and finally Tack had released it.
Intro=====At first glance the intro was going to psyche me up but it didn't to that job. As least not from the start. It seemed like any intro but it was perfectly coded, as usual with sincere thanks to Mr.Anderson who goes by the name of Neo and / or Neo Anderson. As the intro progressed you had a sure feeling that something about it was going to jump out at you. And it did, my favorite part of the intro which I mentioned to Tackleberry over on MSN was the fact that it had signs of the song used for the intro in Connected which makes you feel like this is the 2nd part to a great community video as it is soon to be its follower. Once the reminisce of Connected had past the intro started to go faster which was quite a great move. The best part about it was when it got to the near end of it and you saw the stunters form the "Interlocked Tri-Logo" Awesome job on getting all the coordinates of the stunters set in place Neo. Tack did a great job editing it to the song.
Main body of the video=====The main part of the video is the stunts isn't it eh. All the stunts had something special about them that made them stick out from the rest of the video. From airgrabs to airs, packer bumps to back grinds, average bumps to the most unique thing that can breach the mind of the stunter. Everyone involved did a fantastic job stunting for it. Tackle's choice of using bj's streets even made me download them. (Even though I only kept them for 2 days and uninstalled them only to have them fuck up my VC and LC. ) The video made Vice City look as real and beautiful as current Day Miami and Liberty City look like the slums of New York (In a good way.) The thing that KINDA I felt was a let down was that the video seemed a tad bit too dark (opinion based). As for now let's head on over to the stunts.
Stunts in Interlocked=====The stunts will keep you on the edge of your computer seat from the start to the beginning, so let's take a ride.
02:02 - kaneda - Awesome stunt by kaneda, a spectacular way to start the video and and very stylish looking, as usual.
02:15 - Question - This packer bump was pretty high for a faggio. Nice to see a bike like that get used for those types of stunts in todays day of stunting.
02:22 - Sweet - Sweet's always giving an extra touch to his stunts, nice one bro.
02:32 - Slim - Cool bus stoppie to grind man, you were grinding it pretty slow but managed to go the entire way without getting stuck, oh yea.
02:41 - Iskanderrrr - It seemed like you were totally off when hitting the ledge of the roof and couldn't have gotten more than 30 ft from that bump. But thanks to the magic of RADs you can now get 150 ft. Great stunt, if I were you I'd be too scared to go for that krail.
02:50 - Finallight - I was trying this the other day and I found it quite amazing to see something actually attempt to packer bump those lightpoles and find out that there unbreakable. Still would've loved to see you land the stunt you were going for. But you take what you can get.
02:54 - Brulla - When I found out you were gonna be in this video I got ready to see a pwnage car stunt with a rarly used vehicle and you didn't dissapoint me at all my friend.
03:00 - Haywire - Finally haywire, finally. Why couldn't you stunt like this all the time. The wallride was a bitch to get into and it was superb seeing you get the distance to the roof.
03:06 - PlethZorb - I thought staying on the roof with a PCJ was a bitch but you managed to do it with a freeway. Great job on the stunt.
03:13 - Surfacing - Originality is the key for sweet stunting, apparently it doesn't work on these forums but it worked for your stunt. Pwntacular stunt.
03:21 - CJD - Coolio tank bump, it was great to see you ricochet back like that.
03:26 - NuclearDeath - Nice stunt man, a bit ordinary.
03:33 - Nagual - I can't help but think that I've seen this stunt somewhere before...
03:40 - CDarmy - Nice p2b
03:47 - Morbidxxx - Really good looking BSM nice distance and angle to go along with it.
03:54 - Antisign - Your improving bro, glad to see new stunters not actually quit and keep on stunting.
04:00 - Daffy - Since when were you a taxi stunter, the stunt was great but the cam angle kinda makes it hard to tell which building was boosted off.
04:15 - Dannye - Aren't you the guy who landed on that billboard near the car showroom in VC with a taxi back in 04 or something. Like I didn't expect anything less than ingenious from you. Great combo.
04:25 - Luky - Oh yea nice to see someone land on that portion of the roof.
04:31 - BoxXx - Nice stunt, everyone seems to be doing it with a PCJ but way to stick out and get it done on a sanchez.
04:42 - Kenny - The landing made this stunt, great job getting the perfect angle and landing for this one.
04:47 - Brainkiller - Bastard you cheated, you touched the floor of that roof with your back wheel!! Nice combo it would've been better to see you do it as planned.
04:57 - Docta Luv - Your a rhino stunter eh? Really nice stunt and really tight angle. Glad to see it be pulled off.
05:04 - Ralleee - LOL, omg your the same stunter that couldn't even grind that NPM rail in Connected. Great height and distance on that one, only god would know what would've happened if you bailed it after hitting the edge.
05:12 - Makrame - Decent double airgrab.
05:18 - Aries - Aries, your a disgrace you should've tankbumped that then gone for a grind. Your a shame to all of GTAStunting, nah. Kick ass stunt man, great job with the ricochet. (this better not hurt my chances of being modded. )
05:24 - Xtramus - Even though it was done before your's looked very stylish.
05:30 -
05:37 - Feron - People use PCJs to bump tanks but Feron my man, he uses cars. Nice height and spin overall.
05:44 - Storm Lexer - Oh my god, for some reason I liked this stunt so much. 100% pure tampwnage.
05:51 - PlethZorb - Your gonna bring a revolution to stunting.
05:58 - Falcon - Nice job getting it with a freeway and not managing to slide off.
06:03 - Brainkiller - Even though the stunt is old it's good to see some memories being brought back.
06:11 - Tackleberry - I can't tell if this a blooper or if you were really planning it...Gah I'll go with the second one. Nice stunt, shame that you got stuck.
06:22 - Neo - I didn't think anyone would do this stunt. I was attempting a bump to the hospital and got 99.9% close to the higher roof on that aisle, good to see someone do it. Even if it was the smaller one.
06:27 - Sony - Another stunt idea I'm sure many of had, great job landing it. The angle made it look small though.
06:34 - ExPlosion - Bumping that sign seems like a bitch. Great job getting the distance and teh height.
06:38 - Turtle Dick - fl did it but good to see it get corked or krailed or whateverd.
06:45 - Plumpegg - Looked like a stunt I would expect from Neo or kaneda, loving how all stunters are starting to reach the same level of stunting.
06:58 - Bloodyhook - Really COOL stunt, the angle brought it out to its fullest potential.
07:02 - kaneda - Are you fucking kidding me man I thought you weren't gonna achieve anything by going for the packer at that angle but holy hell this was definitely my favorite stunt of the video. Your always the standout dammit!!
07:18 - Kingjad - Are you happy man? Your finally in a comm vid. Nice stunt.
07:36 - Daffy -Nice bump, about time it was done.
Extra stuff=====Well I've done the intro, I've said what I thought about the main vid and I've said my thoughts on the stunts. I'll save the credits for last so here are extra stuff I noticed or liked about the video. The new GTAStunting logo, shame to see the old one get tossed to the side but a new year brings new changes. The new logo looks sleek-ish and the borders for the the video was nice and simple. The "GTAStunting.com" text on the bottom left caught my eye during the first 30 seconds of the main part, Check it out and you'll see what I mean. The Tri-logo or whatever you guys want to call it were a shear brilliance, showing how a community has branded together and "Interlocked" to bring everyone a great community video. Misguided Angel, Tackleberry and the rest of you guys who had helped with the graphics have done a great job and hope to see you keep on providing the community with more designs to be used in future videos. The hue or gradient map used in the video gave it a stand out look, and it was used in the best effective way. And that's it for that.
The Outro=====Very nice outro with a very nice song used. It was a great soothing choice after a hard, rushing main. Nice job picking out the credits stunts, some made me LOL, some made me others made me "aww man that sucks" but all and all it's a outro so what else can you get. The font used was simple and nothing to flashy and it fit well until the end.
Interlocked vs Dedicted, XXL, Metro, Connected=====Interlocked has been one of the top notch videos of all. It stands right up there with Dedicated and Connected for me. I liked the fact that you probably didn't use all the best stunts that were sent to you and showed what the entire community had to offer like Samurai did in Connected. The forums are growing and we are getting older and older as time passes by. I remember I was just a 13 year old kid who saw great stunt vids by the community (No Mercy, Havor) and joined here and when I was 14 I sent my first ever stunt for a community video. Now years later I'm still here, still posting my thoughts and still watching what this community has to offer. Everyone who has edited community videos has done a great jod and everyone has a style of there own which makes them stick out from the rest. I liked that you were chosen for this job Tack instead of the people saying "nightknight, daffy" and getting all the usual editors and it was nice and fresh to see a new taste around.
Editing of Interlocked=====The video was very cinematic to me. Tack your style is one of a kind just as everyone has one of there own. It was quite refreshing also, seeing the different videos and them progressing as time went by. Nothing was too flashy and nothing was too extraordinary, everything just seemed to fit the video fine and that's what's best about the video. Instead of using the same ol', same ol' effects everyone uses you just enhance them which give them a better feel to the video and I hope everyone who watches can surely agree with me.
Music used in the video=====My favorite was the intro and outro, but you already know that from sending me the songs. The intro sound was ok and it was a new taste but everyone has their own and it's ok with me as long as it wasn't something purely shitty or super screamo. Plus you kinda get hooked onto it after a while.
Final Thought by Torque=====A great way to start off the new year, and I hope many more community videos as great as this one can be created. Stunting won't last forever but as long as it have it with us and in our hearts, it will go a long way. Will all said and done I have 3 final words...."Fuck...you...Ostis. " (aww crap he won't see this, he's on vacation. )
