Gary's Mod and Machinima

The new version of Gmod is out for Half Life 2 for 10 bucks. I've been looking for some reason to buy this but I have not been able to find one single significantly interesting use for this tool. AFAIK, 99% of the community that uses Gmod ends up producing either HL comics, music vids, or boring Rube Goldberg apparatuses. Are there any actual machinima flicks made with Gmod that are any good or am I wasting my time?

I've been tempted to try it myself, but I'm not sure how much benefit you actually get from using Gmod over just using HL2 and other Source projects.

You can recam demos and even output to avi directly. The real time scripting sounds interesting.
