You've probably seen others film TDU and other games and combine this with the original TopGear movie audio to create a remake of certain car reviews. It didn't quite take off last time, likely to do with the fact that the GC.net site that hosted the project kept suffering from bugs and then ultimately was taken down.
So what's the plan?
It's quite simple, really. One Season at a time, a bunch of us pick reviews that we would like to remake. You can try to mimic the original clip as much as possible - or make the way you think it should've been done. Those who are unable to film with Fraps or Gamecam or Xfire can always sign up as actors/drivers.
Once all the films are pretty much completed, we'll all take in turns sharing, one week at a time, in order of the original release dates. It's a huge undertaking, but let's just take it one movie at a time.
Making Of
This is the 'making of' thread. This will be where we can organize who does what, etc. When we're nearly all ready, we'll make a TG Season 1 thread in the normal forum and also have some Season 1 quizzes to see who the biggest Top gear fan really is.
I've never seen a Top Gear remake movie - are there any examples that I can check out?
Well, I have a very old, unfinished one on the Maserati Gransport here, and the Sir community have made an excellent remake
.
You'll likely find other remakes of varying quality around on YouTube.
The business end
Ok - there are 10 episodes in Season 1 - I've watched them all recently (have them all on my PC in decent quality).
I'm already halfway through the Noble M12 GTO review remake, which Colster and Andrius have helped me with so far.
Post below saying which movie you'd like to make, or if you would like to be an actor in a certain movie. I'm hoping quite a few guys are able to step up as movie makers.
This thread is also on a Official Forums here.
