And just for the sake of completeness, a link to the most ambitious Machinima project ever created for a Quake engine.
Let this be a source of inspiritation and motivation. (And also a way to show you how crazy people can get.)

You should find some friends that can help you make a better script, something that you made yourself on the spot might get a couple lols but something funny with dedicated producers would be great  :)

Sorry, I had to do this...


Seriously, I think a well-written script could work well with Tremulous for machinima.  It's just not easy to get not only the script, but all the actors and all the pieces to fall together to make for a good result (most of the ones I've seen are slightly better than utter crap, but the good ones are damned good).
