What is with all these machineracists?

Machineracists (Yes I did just make up a word and I'm going to use it as much as I can until it sounds real). Some may be wondering what Machineracists are. They are the people who still aren't down with the whole idea of making movies in games. Now excuse me if I am wrong but, how does Machinima differ from any other form of cinema? A Machineracist would say: Because only nerdy guys watch it, or she/he might say: Because it isn't as good. What people need to understand is that traditional blockbusters are limited by funds where as Machinima is only limited by your imagination, sure there is the cost of the game, a recorder and a microphone, but I have all three of those things and it really only costs no more than $100. Also there is the FACT that traditional blockbusters have a deadline to release. Where as Machinima makers have the ability to love, care and breath life into their movie and not produce another standard action or comedy. Machineracists still do not understand that there is a revolution happening, the online media revolution, such as mods, machinima, indie music. The fact is, I would rather go out and see this in a cinema http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9WqOlQNRZ4&list=LLZqRp6F4_YYmQkwsJoAn-_A&index=4&feature=plpp_video Instead of seeing this which is basically another Battlefield: LA except on water http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDMXkPfxjOc Now don't get me wrong, I don't wan't everything to be a machinima, but I do say. VIVA LA ONLINE REVOLUTION
