+LEGOMANIAC419 rly dude, just read the fcking description, it says the spartans name is nicole, and Master Chief is a guy. either youre kinda stupid, or not a fan of Halo lol
Yeah I watched this year's ago, but never knew what it was or who made it. I also never watched the whole thing, only the fight scene before Samus landed. God, Monty was an amazing artist and I know his work and dreams will live on far beyond his passing with Rooster Teeth and the global community.
According to Master Chiefs statistics this is the realistic speed he'd be capable of going at, he doesn't move this fast in the game series for balancing purposes.
christian ward that’s kilometers per hour I’m pretty sure, master chief went faster in armor but tore his Achilles’ tendon to even do it for a split second.
When Rooster Teeth brought Monty onboard to do animation with them in RvB and other shows I thought, "You mean the dude who did the Haloid and Dead Fantasy videos? This is going to be AMAZING!!!" And man did he bring us all on one hell of a ride since then. Then he died, and when I saw that he was only three years older than I am at his passing I couldn't help but think, "What have I done with my life?" Monty you have inspired me to make the best of my life from here on out.
RIP Monty Oum 2/1/2015. From beginning to end, you were an inspiration to us all. You brought joy into the world with your amazing talent. Its a shame it has to be this way, but its important to never forget your accomplishments, and the footprints you left behind. All of our hearts will be with you Monty.
Can god please give us back this beautifully talented and inspiring human being. 33 years is too young to be taken away. I would do anything to get Monty back. RIP Monty, love you buddy.
this is the kind of animation i'd like to be able to do, the man was nothing short of a genius. hell, if you look up the word "Genius" in the dictionary there may as well be his picture
i remember it being mindblowing and came back here after first watching it after they stated him to rip , until than i never knew who he was too , and the things is i got more than impresingly overwhelmed after rewatching this some years later XD how does this work lol , he was amazing X3 ❤️
I'm re-watching this here in 2023 and I still think it's great. Sure, graphics have improved considerably, but the concept, the animation, even the cool outside the video game world storyline is awesome. The double shield sniper rifle mass kill is still one of the coolest moves I've ever seen put to screen. Taking creative license with characters for the sake of cool has never looked better.
This is what inspired me to become an animator. To create something as awesome and imaginative as this. I then see his work at rooster teeth and I admire him even more, he created a community of fans, writers, artists and animators. He may be gone but I will always try to work just as hard as he did in his life.
Men like Monty are titans, the likes of which we may never see again in our lifetime. It's painful knowing that not enough people will know of his passing.
The absolute creativity and the ability to follow along with the fight choreography without it being too unbelievable is something I rarely see but Monty oum was able to do this flawlessly and the difference of his absence on things he worked on is night and day. He was also funny and dedicated, miss the guy.
2:45 This. This right here. Monty Oum is a choreographing genius. Forever an inspiration, my idol. 6:00 THIS IS THE MOST JAW-DROPPING CHOREOGRAPHY I EVER FELT. This man was one-of-a-kind, a prodigy. I hope to live up to make moments like these to show my love and pure idolization of Monty Oum in the near future.
Coming back to this after watching the podcast for Monty, and I just now realize how much this was an inspiration for some scenes in RWBY and RvB, especially the shotgun scene and the part where Samus runs around really fast.
If you want to see a lot of his early work and basis for RWBY, check out Dead Fantasy. Think of it this way, Haloid got him hired for RvB. Dead Fantasy is why they green-lighted RWBY (remember, this was back when RT had only RvB, Let's Plays, and podcast.)
I think the lesbian ships in the FNDM are more the result of the four main characters being female, the two most prominent male characters (Jaune and Ren) having canon love interests, and the remaining notable mare characters (Sun and Neptune) are... well, Sun's okay for the most part, but a lot of people hate Neptune, sooo... yeah.
It completely boggles my mind how Monty was able to do all of this on his own. If he was able to do something like this all by himself, then it really just goes to show that anyone can do anything when they truly put their mind and effort to whatever they work on. RIP Monty - you're an inspiration to me and so many others. You left this world way too soon, but you sure as hell left your mark on it before you had to go.
I personally never knew the man named Monty Oum, but i can really appreciate his work!! The man is brilliant and will always be adored by his fans....enough good things can't be said about this Impressive young man. Love you, love the awesome work you did too! And what a sweet surprise at the end of this one....I won't give it away, but I used to wonder why I enjoyed playing Metroid & Halo so much!!!♥♥♥
We will never know what he could have achieved if he was still with us, but what he has given us is more than enough to prove that he was one of the best animators of our generation. R.I.P Monty and thank you for all your hard work T_T.
That moment when you realize you just saw Pyrrha Nikos (Spartan 458, NOT Master Chief--read the description!) get beat up by Blake Belladonna (Samus) before they work together to defeat a horde of Grimm... *sigh* Goodbye, Monty.
Dave Strider But at the same time this makes master chief even more of a bad-a** then before. If this was just a spartan then you know the real chief will that much more epic. Samus would get destroyed.
I had no idea this was by Monty. Never really knew who the guy was save for a few appearances in the odd RTpodcast I watched, but I was well aware of this movie every since it first boomed onto the internet. Bummer, really talented dude.
This looks better than RWBY nowadays. Not technically speaking, but the fight scenes here have more energy, hits feel impactful, and the choreography keeps you on your toes
Um dude nobody can do the exact same stuff as Monty. They can do his job but they can't replace him. RT is fine. They got plenty of fans that will do those jobs. But nobody can replace the real person. You just have to deal with it. There are thousands of human can do that job. Few that can do it right. But one who's the best at it. That's Monty.
cloud strife I don't think that's really a "to each their own" thing. Monty WAS the best at what he did, because it was original, and had so much passion and love put into it that nothing will ever come close to being what he did. Like Christian Carlson said, yeah, others can do the job...But nobody will do it like Monty.
man...his work was so good....its so sad to see talented people die so suddenly. as for the video, it does make sense actually, since there were more spartans then just the chief. RIP Monty, we miss you already
It's crazy to think that many years ago I was watching this as a kid being blown away by his fight scenes, and now in 2020 I'm watching it again so that I can get some ideas for my own animation project. RIP Monty and thank you for inspiring me to get into animation.
The Freelancers don't have anything on these two. THank you for creating such great works Monty Oum, know that you will always be loved by you family, friends, and fans. R.I.P.
Monty Oum has always been an inspiration and a role model to me. I’ve always been a huge fan RWBY and I’ve always loved his animations. When I found out he passed away, I was devastated. I want to be an animator and a director when I get older. It’s a shame he died, but he left such beautiful artwork behind. I hope his brother can find all of it so we can all see. RIP Monty Oum. You may have passed, but you will never be forgotten.
I love what Monty said at the end it was like please be nice to me. Monty rest well and thank you for inspiring two of the greatest people on the internet who have given us now 10 seasons of Battles inspired by this wonderful video :D
Man, I think this is one of the most influential videos from early RUclips! Monty was a legend, I'm so glad he was picked up by Rooster Teeth! He did a lot for the indie creator on YT.
Fuck man, this was the first video I saw of Monty's. As soon as I found out he died I came here and watched this. I started tearing up during this video. RIP Monty
I'm glad the prevailing opinion in this is that it was impressive at the time. This was during an age when things like MMD didn't exist, and custom videos were just starting to come out. The fact that this man can create something so enthralling and intriguing with the poor animation models that were available to him is beyond impressive. Kudos to Monty.
Screams DOA with the graphics and motion captures, too! And he knows how to write the chemistry! I hope other people will look to this work and animate their own fan fictions.
RIP Monty Oum, your work is legendary. (I've got some questions about lesbian master chief though when I meet you in paradise some day, cant say that's a take I've heard before)
This brings me back. This was the first animation i saw by Monty Oum, followed by Dead Fantasy, long before he began his work on RWBY. His presence is still greatly miased.
This was the first thing I saw on RUclips by Monty. After watching it I then watched everything else of his I could find. Then 3 days later under recomendations a show called Red vs Blue. And that started my love for Rooster Teeth.
I love watching this and seeing Monty's style all over it. The way the animation isn't real-life perfect, but is uniquely Monty's... yeah, there's something real special about that.
This man was a mad man and a genius. Over the top, fast paced action, smooth animation and borderline nonsensical physics. He really let loose and did things just for spectacle and that sets him so far apart from other animators. I haven't watched his original animations, I only know him from RWBY, but you can feel Monty's absence today, the show is still good but Monty was just too good at what he did. He'll be missed by a lot of people, tragic he had to go before his time.
If i recall isn't this the animation that lead to Monty being hired by Roosterteeth to begin with. Didn't they start getting into this kind of animation around seasons 7 and 8 which where aired after this.
+KenshiImmortalWolf This was before Monty was hired at RT, and Monty made ALL of the animations from the 7th and 8th seasons, then they brought on more people to help with the 9th and 10th, since they had a TON of animation. Monty posted this video long before this particular copy of the video was posted. TOTALLY MISREAD YOUR COMMENT SORRY. I thought you said "This isn't" not "Isn't this". In that case, you are totally right. This and Dead Fantasy were the main things that got Monty hired at RT.
Rest in Peace Monty, you will be sorely missed! you were a machine, a beautiful, hard working, brilliant machine to produce such amazing things such as the rvb animation and of course for RWBY. The world will miss you always.
The thing about Monty's amazing work is it's not just about the fight scenes. The camera angles and the camera movement play a huge part of it too. And, then, there's just the fact that a bunch of other things are happening at once. The guy is just amazing. I miss Monty so much. =[
First I would like to say: SHOTGUN KUNG FU BITCHES!!! Second I would like to say thank you to the poster for clearing the confusion about Master Chick.
I remember watching this masterpiece along with the trailers for halo 3 around a time when a little site called google videos was competing with youtube. Still watch it from time to time. I remember I was super happy when I found out Monty was hired by Rooster Teeth to work on rvb. Also super sad when I found he passed on. RIP to this legend
why did he make MasterChief a girl yet his armor sparked like he was aroused at his crouch at 4:45 when he saw samas was a girl under the armour also where Cortana I always see Cortana missing in almost all fan renditions
When I look at this and compare it to the Remake that was made in Monty’s honor, I like the model he used for zero suit in here better than the remake. Don’t get me wrong I like Samus’s more up-to-date look in the remake but when that armor comes off, I would rather see Monty’s zero suit samus model.
Rest in Peace, Monty Oum. The world is a shade darker without your talent.
I miss him to
Stop friend Monty Dead
What about Crash Maul?
I know this may be late, and I am taking a risk by saying this, but my prayers go out to his family. He will never stop being an inspiration for me.
To all those who can't stop arguing who'd win in a fight, remember that Samus and Chief are far more likely to be kicking alien ass than each others.
"Guts and Lara would be playing with each other, not you."
exactly, when she first landed in was like "wait, their both human, wtf are they fighting?"
+LEGOMANIAC419 rly dude, just read the fcking description, it says the spartans name is nicole, and Master Chief is a guy. either youre kinda stupid, or not a fan of Halo lol
Lars Viktor Eliasson it's a snarky joke, dude.
Same can be said about Batman and Superman, or Superman and Goku. Doesn't stop people from doing it anyways.
Wait... This was from Monty Oum?...
Holy shit... I was watching Monty Oum animations before I knew Monty Oum was a thing...
Probably not the only one
Holy crap! Me too!!
you aren't the only one. I think I've seen this in 2010 or something through Facebook.
Same here! I've been a metro I'd fan since birth and recently a fan of rwby. small world, hub?
same
Omg. I watched this when it first came out. Never new it was by Monty. RIP. Remember. He isn't gone. He is just not here.... Right now.
Yeah I watched this year's ago, but never knew what it was or who made it. I also never watched the whole thing, only the fight scene before Samus landed. God, Monty was an amazing artist and I know his work and dreams will live on far beyond his passing with Rooster Teeth and the global community.
He's rocking that great big animator's workstation in the sky now.
Amen to that. Where ever he is now, he's probably working just as damned hard as he did at Rooster Teeth. The stories of his work ethic are legendary.
He powered down.
no hes just inn power down mode
According to Master Chiefs statistics this is the realistic speed he'd be capable of going at, he doesn't move this fast in the game series for balancing purposes.
Cho Tengen Toppa Nep Nep WAIT, THAT MEANS I COULD BE DOING THIS STUFF IN REACH, DAMIT BUNGIE.
No. Kelly is the fastest at 62 mph. Thinking this is accurate to the speed of a spartan is just being an idiot
christian ward that’s kilometers per hour I’m pretty sure, master chief went faster in armor but tore his Achilles’ tendon to even do it for a split second.
Kelly sprinted up a 150m hill in 4s,
Or else you see everything (or almost everything in spartan time going off they are modified)
This is where creativity starts. Pursue it and it can take you farther than anyone can imagine
;-;
Creativity is dead
Oh wow this was the year he died
@@MiQuentin yeah
@@SinclairSan nah
If they don't say goodbye, then they're never truly gone.
Nice red vs blue quote.

probably got the idea from Monty

damn right. To quote Thelonius Monk, "A genius is a man most like himself."
Coming back to this in Honor of a great flame extinguished yesterday. Rest In Peace, Monty.

This may look a bit like crap now with the graphics but a few years ago this was mind blowing
This is still mind blowing even with the graphics

I'll never forget all the animations he made such a masterpiece.
It all started from here to a series and videogames.
RIP Monty Oum
Holy shit this thing is a relic. It's a nicely crafted one thats aged well like a good bourbon.
You've left us with something to aspire to Monty Oum, we will not forget the standard you set in animation.

an absolute animation genius gone way too soon, RIP Monty
Ez nagyon régi emlékem ujra felidézésem amikkor megszeretem a halo universumot 10 ével ezelöt eszt a videot néztem és szivem be zártam :) köszönöm!!!
And suddenly all the lesbian ships and fantasies in FNDM make sense...
FNDM?
tyler ray That's how RWBY(Another Monty's work) fandom calls itself.
Ah, makes sense, I've watched RWBY but I didn't know that's what the fans called themselves
I think the lesbian ships in the FNDM are more the result of the four main characters being female, the two most prominent male characters (Jaune and Ren) having canon love interests, and the remaining notable mare characters (Sun and Neptune) are... well, Sun's okay for the most part, but a lot of people hate Neptune, sooo... yeah.
@Raider 2747 It is a thing many wish they could do. Alas, they are only characters
Monty oum was to 3D animation like what Ghibli was to anime. Whether age shows or not he wont be forgotten by his work
Monty, your creative genius was a gift to the world, annd your work will always have a place in my library. R.I.P.
It completely boggles my mind how Monty was able to do all of this on his own. If he was able to do something like this all by himself, then it really just goes to show that anyone can do anything when they truly put their mind and effort to whatever they work on. RIP Monty - you're an inspiration to me and so many others. You left this world way too soon, but you sure as hell left your mark on it before you had to go.
This is a seed for so many animation styles that exist today. Than you Monty Oum now and forever
RIP Monty your works in animation were one of a kind. I will always miss you.

Goodbye, Monty.
Monty: he turned Halo into an anime.
Which is lore-accurate.
We lost Monty way too soon.
The guy was a master of his craft.
so. this is what led to Monty getting a job at RT. kickass
...
SONOFA
I never saw the ending to this vid, and now im rather annoyed to find out that THATS NOT MASTER CHIEF
Dave Strider But you got to admit that it was awesome non the less. You could just think of it as another Spartan.
True, but still
If it was really master chief
Then that would have been a display of the lucky, bad-a** chief we all know and love
Dave Strider But at the same time this makes master chief even more of a bad-a** then before. If this was just a spartan then you know the real chief will that much more epic. Samus would get destroyed.

You
Are

AWESOME

But nobody can replace the real person. You just have to deal with it. There are thousands of human can do that job. Few that can do it right. But one who's the best at it. That's Monty.

RIP Monty Oum, I can't say anyone else's animating has excited me as much as yours has.
:(... Miss you buddy.. Remember first watching this on Gametrailers.. you were my inspiration..
Watched for the first time ever in 2021 and it holds up. Especially the choreography. Thank you Monty
man...his work was so good....its so sad to see talented people die so suddenly.
as for the video, it does make sense actually, since there were more spartans then just the chief.

You can really see that combat style with master chief using the shotgun that he'd develop and use for rwby
It would be like the past would be brought back if Yang were added as a guest fighter for the next DOA.
The Freelancers don't have anything on these two.
THank you for creating such great works Monty Oum, know that you will always be loved by you family, friends, and fans. R.I.P.
Imagine Monty oum doing a Bayonetta fight scene oh my word the epic ness. Rest his creative soul
Monty Oum has always been an inspiration and a role model to me. I’ve always been a huge fan RWBY and I’ve always loved his animations. When I found out he passed away, I was devastated.

You may have passed, but you will never be forgotten.
Even now...this is still the best animation I've seen. of all time.
RWBY *COUGH*
Avadica then why did you say this halloid animation was the best
Avadica but RWBY was still better breast
+Avadica best* also the food fight was better
Seriously? Just watch the ruby red white black and blue trailers.
The Halo TV series should have tributed to Monty Oum.
These animations are still badass.
Get well soon Monty

Goodbye Monty Oum this world won’t be the same without you…
I'm glad the prevailing opinion in this is that it was impressive at the time. This was during an age when things like MMD didn't exist, and custom videos were just starting to come out. The fact that this man can create something so enthralling and intriguing with the poor animation models that were available to him is beyond impressive. Kudos to Monty.
God, you can SEE the DNA for RWBY in here.
Screams DOA with the graphics and motion captures, too! And he knows how to write the chemistry! I hope other people will look to this work and animate their own fan fictions.
The music at the end is Godly, so beautiful, this production in general is just.. i cant
Apparently that's where they got the idea for RWBY's Illia Amitola's electric sword-whip weapon
Too bad she doesn't even fight like that.
I’ll never forget discovering this and RvB at the same time, and seeing Rooster Teeth pick up Monty because of THIS video right here.. Wow..
RIP Monty Oum, your work is legendary.
(I've got some questions about lesbian master chief though when I meet you in paradise some day, cant say that's a take I've heard before)
This brings me back. This was the first animation i saw by Monty Oum, followed by Dead Fantasy, long before he began his work on RWBY. His presence is still greatly miased.
all the songs are attributed in the credits,
"In Amber Clad," "Burly Brawl," "Allthe World in One Girl," and "Crazy"
This was the first thing I saw on RUclips by Monty. After watching it I then watched everything else of his I could find. Then 3 days later under recomendations a show called Red vs Blue. And that started my love for Rooster Teeth.
This is the definition of rule of kewl
Wow! Today was the first day I discovered this! It is a strange feeling. I never knew I would ever see another Monty oum production.
Still great. 12 years later.
Rest in Peace Monty..watched this in high school all those years ago. Just realized he made it. Wow
2:30 THAT’S THE SOUND OF YANG’S GAUNTLETS
I love watching this and seeing Monty's style all over it. The way the animation isn't real-life perfect, but is uniquely Monty's... yeah, there's something real special about that.
You can easily see RvB and RWBY from this, rest in peace Monty...
13 years later. How time flies
8:16 literalmente Monty Oum aparece en todos los créditos de esa escena XD
El tipo prácticamente carreo todo en esta animación jajajaja
This man was a mad man and a genius. Over the top, fast paced action, smooth animation and borderline nonsensical physics. He really let loose and did things just for spectacle and that sets him so far apart from other animators. I haven't watched his original animations, I only know him from RWBY, but you can feel Monty's absence today, the show is still good but Monty was just too good at what he did. He'll be missed by a lot of people, tragic he had to go before his time.
If i recall isn't this the animation that lead to Monty being hired by Roosterteeth to begin with. Didn't they start getting into this kind of animation around seasons 7 and 8 which where aired after this.
+KenshiImmortalWolf This was before Monty was hired at RT, and Monty made ALL of the animations from the 7th and 8th seasons, then they brought on more people to help with the 9th and 10th, since they had a TON of animation. Monty posted this video long before this particular copy of the video was posted.
TOTALLY MISREAD YOUR COMMENT SORRY. I thought you said "This isn't" not "Isn't this". In that case, you are totally right. This and Dead Fantasy were the main things that got Monty hired at RT.
+ChaosPhoenix11 make a song for COLD
Watching this never gets old. Rest in peace,you truly had a gift Monte. Too bad you left before your true potential flurished.
the laws of physics is strong with this one
Awesome people don't need physics!
Physics are for people with a grip on reality. The rest of us are fine without either.
Rest in Peace Monty, you will be sorely missed! you were a machine, a beautiful, hard working, brilliant machine to produce such amazing things such as the rvb animation and of course for RWBY. The world will miss you always.
Requiescat In Pace, Monty. You'll be animating for God.
The thing about Monty's amazing work is it's not just about the fight scenes. The camera angles and the camera movement play a huge part of it too. And, then, there's just the fact that a bunch of other things are happening at once. The guy is just amazing. I miss Monty so much. =[
First I would like to say: SHOTGUN KUNG FU BITCHES!!!
Second I would like to say thank you to the poster for clearing the confusion about Master Chick.
Gunkata bitches!
I remember watching this masterpiece along with the trailers for halo 3 around a time when a little site called google videos was competing with youtube. Still watch it from time to time. I remember I was super happy when I found out Monty was hired by Rooster Teeth to work on rvb. Also super sad when I found he passed on. RIP to this legend
wtf, I just heard that Monty Oum is dead. Damn.... RIP.
NOW THIS IS MASTERCHIEF!!! First time seeing this and god is it amazing :)
why did he make MasterChief a girl yet his armor sparked like he was aroused at his crouch at 4:45 when he saw samas was a girl under the armour also where Cortana I always see Cortana missing in almost all fan renditions
It’s not Chief. It’s Nicole (check the description).
And…I mean, girls can get aroused too, ya know.
I remember watching this as a little kid, and thinking it was so cool. I can't believe he's gone
In the future we call an ending like this "korasami confirned" 😁
2008? Monty.... You truly are a master of art.
When I look at this and compare it to the Remake that was made in Monty’s honor, I like the model he used for zero suit in here better than the remake. Don’t get me wrong I like Samus’s more up-to-date look in the remake but when that armor comes off, I would rather see Monty’s zero suit samus model.
No words can describe the sheer awesome that just overloaded what little cerebral functions I have left in my brain.
