    Well timing fits and it's a well-known fact that Valve and the Lost-Crew are working together (Lost is full of Half-Life elements and Episode 2 featured some funny Lost easter-eggs). The movie is great but I don't think it's viral marketing for Episode 3. The ITTP-Poster is still the only known artwork/ad for Episode 3 it seems

    I can't believe you are even thinking this could be viral ad for EP3

    You can actually hear the Devs commenting on this in Episode 2 and how they got in contact with JJ Abrams (that's his name, isn't it?)

    The Jurassic Park 3 music diluted it a lot. Other then that it was well made. It Would have been better if it wasn't associated with Half-Life 2 .

    too many hl2 sounds, it was really awkward. definitely a nice movie though, but you can tell it wasn't made in professional development.

    Well made film that will help its author go places, but I don't believe for one second it's viral
