gutupio has posted a link over in the HBO forum to what just might be the first true 100% HUDless Halo film. (Silvergrunt earlier did a WMV with HUDless clips in it, and others may have as well.) It's a 20 Mb DivX-encoded AVI, and reportedly the closest it has to a title is Entry 1, which seems to suggest to me at least the theoretical possibility of an Entry 2 at some point.

We've added a mirror of Entry 1 in our Halo Movies section.

HBO and BGH now each have new mailbag editions up. Gee, we could make fun of people too, if they sent us mail at webmaster@rampancy.net. There's an idea.

Devin Olsen and Gil27 have put up a movie and some screenshots of multiplayer action on the engine room portion of The Maw. You may remember that a poll at Halo Mods asked what level, after the Library, should be converted into a multiplayer level, and this was one of the choices.

The map isn't available for download yet, but it might be... sometime...

The screenshot post by Gil27 and Devin Olsen gives special thanks to MonoxideC (creator of the Library multiplayer conversion), ViperNeo, ZexGX, and Zelda Freak. Thanks for the note to Louis Wu at HBO.
