Warning: There’s some slightly not-safe-for-work imagery at the opening of this video. I’ve stared pretty intently at the film. And while there’s not much that would directly lead it to an “R” rating, it’s still a little risque for the cubicle farm. Try to watch this one at home. Bad Romance by Quixotica came highly recommended to me by Selserene . How could I not leap to check out a video with that kind of recommendation? When I viewed the film, I was in no way disappointed. Quixotica managed to create a breathtaking, beautiful video. Some of the dialogue is a little funny. “Purr for daddy” has become one of my favorite joke-lines around the house, and you can imagine how much my beloved fiancee loves hearing it. But I think Quixotica created this video with that kind of satire in mind, and I think she really drove home the genre and theme of her video. It’s about betrayal and hope, and she relies on a certain level of tongue-in-cheek self-awareness to keep those themes from becoming over-powering. If it had been any more over the top, it would have entered Twi light levels of angsty silliness. Quixotica should be commended for her artistic vision, and her ability to bring together video imagery with a wonderful soundtrack. I truly hope she picks up a second installment for this video, because I’d like to see where the story goes. Interested in the wide world of machinima ?

Here is a great article all about WoW Moviewatch: Castle In The Sky

Castle in the Sky by Zimtower is a short, sweet and beautiful music video. It’s somewhat referencing Dalaran as a castle in the sky, but is really more focused on the idea of a “happy place” where each person can revisit their own childhood. And yes, that’s totally a reappearance from the fun gnome from Cloud 9 . It’s a pretty short video, so I wouldn’t recommend trying to read too much into it. However, Zimtower has done an amazing job animating his gnomes so that they actually line up against the song’s lyrics. The video is beautiful, with a whimsical color palette that serves to magnificently reinforce the song’s message. Ultimately, this is a great video. I had a fun time watching it, and expect it to be one of my go-to “pick me up” films in the future. Interested in the wide world of machinima ?

Giordano posted about Trev and Eroth: Desperate Measures over at Myndflame . This is just the trailer for the movie, but it has the benefit of mostly being made up from actual footage. The reason that’s a big deal, if you don’t already know, is that many machinima trailers use slices and snippets from in-game footage or other movies that are never actually repeated in the machinima itself. This technique is usually use to give the author a springboard into inspiration, and help them get their thoughts together. I’m not quite sure what to make of Trev and Eroth . It’s supposed to end up a four-piece story, which is pretty exciting when you consider the scope and intricacy of such a plot. Gnomes as antagonists are also a huge plus for the film. However, I just think it’s way too early to lay any judgement on Giordano’s work, since we’ve yet to see the final movie. Trailers can only go so far. The plot definitely seems viable, though, so I’m curious to see how it ends up. Interested in the wide world of machinima ? We have new movies every weekday here on WoW Moviewatch !

Found this article when I was searching the internet

It could be hard to imagine that our favorite four-button face-smashing Retribution Paladins were once less than superstars. However, the long-lived among us remember that in vanilla WoW , Paladins were largely buff dispensers in dresses, armed with a couple heals and the super-sexy Tier 2 Judgement set. In memory of the Paladins of that bygone era, Greyfoo has written the Pally DPS Song . Greyfoo’s song definitely has a handful of chuckle-worthy moments. I have to admit that it really drummed up some nostalgia for me. And while my Paladin sure isn’t rocking the Arena ladder, I still have to acknowledge that he’s doing about a billion times better than he was in the original game. I found Greyfoo’s animation suited just fine to his song. The music is fun and low-key, but satisfying. I hope Greyfoo had a good time creating this video, and that he comes back around to do more.

The Wolvar are one of my favorite parts of Wrath of the Lich King , and I’m darn happy that they’re finally getting their moment in the sun. Stone Falcon Productions has brought the love for Wolvar to the public in their mockumentary called Among the Badger Men . Among the Badger Men is an amazing piece of work, especially when you consider the team created this piece in a mere 48 hours. The voice acting is spot on. The music is well selected and perfectly matches the “action” of the film. The plot is wonderfully complex, with enough moving parts to hold the audience’s attention through the entire movie. I especially enjoy the characterization of the Badger Men. I grant that the way the Badger Men (People) are portrayed doesn’t really match the Wolvar from in-game text, but it’s still pretty amusing how they react to the explorer with straight-faced amusement. You should definitely take the time to check out this movie. It’s a little longer than most videos we feature here, but i promise it’s worth the time. Interested in the wide world of machinima ?
