There was a decent amount of interest in the old thread a few months back so I thought I'd drop this by:




Not bad, I liked it more than Blacks trailer. I also approve of Powerfist Pistols

And here are the others in case anyone needs caught up:



Overall I think my favorite is still Red. Any thoughts?

Well.. The dialogue is still stale in delivery XD Somehow I had a feeling Yellow was going to beat people with her fists way bay in the Red Trailer. Gun fists though, didn't see that coming. Or that she'd go super saiyen.

Would still like to know what this story is about too. Guess I just have to keep waiting.

Yeah the delivery is still off. The Male actors feel to me to be the ones letting it down. We've all seen them go "rage mode" Yellows just the first to have actually physical effects. Wasn't a bad touch though.

I'm not even sure it's the voice actors at all. The way it plays in the audio sounds really stiff, kind of stop motion I guess? More like an editing problem synching up all the audio together so it flows fluidly. The flow is off.

EDIT: Right now it sounds like the voice actors are all standing at the mic taking turns reading the script of which they only have one copy and they have to pass it back and forth between themselves. The timing of it all is throwing me off.

Hmmm, I can kinda feel that. Might be. I'd think something this well done on the visual scale doing the audio right wouldn't be too hard, I however say that knowing nothing about what goes into this kind of thing!

Story wise it looks like Yellow's looking for Black. Least what she showed "Jr." seemed like her to me.

EDIT: Yeah I can see it when you put it like that. There's odd pauses in it. Seen best at the end between her and Red

Did goldilocks just fight a bear?

Ranking: Red, Yellow, White, Black for me

The gun fists mark the second ridiculous weapon that I want to do an actual firing build of at some point in the future along with Ruby's Scythe.

Yeah I agree that the voice actors are off which is a pity because we know from Red Vs Blue that they have some great voice actors!

Still doesn't make any sense, but I'm interested to see how it all ties together.

What exactly are these about/for/to do with/etc, etc?

Whites fight scene kinda reminds me of the monastary fight in Sucker Punch although the knight guy looked a bit stilted in his movement. I also have a real soft spot for fight scenes like in Red movie

Oh, the fight scene here briefly reminded me of Kung Fu hustle, I was sorta disappointed that Yellow one shotted all the hatchet wielding henchmen.

Snrub, these are the trailers for the new Rooster Teeth series RWBY.

Well Jack's voice really isn't made for voice acting at all (He does the badguy.). And thank god they dind't give Yellow/Yang/Barbera any puns.

Yeah i decided that i might actually do a little leg work myself and i searched "Rooster Teeth". It's amazing what you can find out if you put in a little effort.


On a side note, i really gotta get me a bazooka bat.

omg XD That's awesome.

Sorry to ruin the love-in but that was bloody awful. The only redeeming factor is that the fights are coherently directed, it's always clear what's going on. Of course the fight scenes themselves are utterly pointless and devoid of any drama, tension or actual conflict.

The animation, fight choreography apart, is abysmal and the art style is a total eyesore. It looks like the PS1 game 'Fear effect', which had the excuse of the primitive technology. It might be aiming for the demented beauty of Killer 7, Okami or El shaddai but it fails, miserably. I am not even an anime fan and i would describe this as Gaijin crap.

Finally we have the weakest aspect, the script and voice acting. It's atrocious, the amateurish screeching of Red vs Blue seems like fine art in comparison. On a minor note none of the identikit copy paste/adjust colour palette 'Heriones' fit their voices, just another hallmark or amateurish animation.

Must try Harder.

Wow someone has a stick rammed up where the sun doesn't shine. I didn't particularly like it either but no need to be so bloody rude about it. Besides it's still the trailers and hopefully they'll improve. And the "amateurish screeching of Red vs Blue"? That show is brilliant. And if it is amateurish, it's because it is literally the dubbing of video games that were mostly made at least 5 years ago!
I kind of agreed with you up until that point.

Nah I can see where Perkustin is coming from. If someone put this on TV it would be laughed off the channel. My expectations are set slightly lower because I expect this to be kind of amateurish (I'm a fan of low bar entertainment anyway evident by how much pulp fiction I read on a regular basis).

Rooster Teeth has kind of invited negative reactions cause while the fights are impressive so far the story is a giant mystery so I understand people who feel a lack of interest or find it to be bland because there's no context for what's going on.

And yeah. The voice acting really needs improvement and rewatching the video, I will agree that Red's voice actress doesn't sound right for the character. I was fine with Yellow but Blake and Ruby both have actresses who don't fit the characters (but that might change once we actually have some story instead of some disjointed cut scenes).

Wait... they're not letting Barbara do a voice are they?

And we can forgive her terrible puns because she's as hot as hell.

Oh Yelli is certainly Barbs. And the guy with the batzooka is Jack Pattillo. The Cast of RWBY is made out of the current RvB cast as far as I know of.

God I hope they let Matt use the Wyoming voice somewhere in the series. That one is marvelous.

That might be a bit too ridiculous for a series that seems to be a more serious in tone XD

I Dunno, he could show up as some posh villain

great fight scene!

horrible voice over!

I wouldn't come to any conclusions about the seriousness/not seriousness of RWBY just yet.

And I don't care if it would be out of place, Wyoming voice is boss.

More Wyoming voice is a god thing. There just wasn't enough of it in the past two seasons of RvB.

And more of Joel doing anything. He's hilarious.

Just watched the Yellow trailer and put Wyoming's voice over all of Jacks lines. Got a laugh out of it
