Given the low barriers to entry, why haven't we already seen an explosion of great machinima, a thousand hilarious [[Machinimima/RedVsBlue Reds vs. ten thousand brilliant Blues]]? For the same reason we didn't see a million great novels after we got word processors, or a flood of tremendous indie films when video cameras got cheap. It's hard work! Go to Lionhead's ''Videogame/TheMovies'' site and blow a heart-sinking half-hour browsing some of its thousands of two-minute mediocrities. You'll confront the perennial problem with user-generated content: Most creators stink.
