Filed under: Analysis / Opinion , WoW Moviewatch Any machinima that uses The Beastie Boys wins a few extra points in my book right off the bat, but it certainly helps that this video in particular is well choreographed. The video fit the music very well, and I think my only real complaint is that it started to drag on a little. To be truthful, I can’t tell if that’s the fault of the machinima or the fault of my fascinating inability to sit still for more than a few minutes if there are no explosions in my direct vicinity. I do like the fact that there was a story being played out using the lyrics of the song, rather than just a bunch of unrelated scenes cobbled together as we see so often. It’s nice when someone sticks to a theme rather than flashing back and forth between random characters and scenes, only focusing on words that stick out in a song rather than the entire song. The jarring scene switches have their place , but this isn’t it. It’s good to see the author recognize that. The creator, CSid , mentioned that this was a test project and they’ll be working on their own WoW web series. I haven’t seen enough from CSid to make a prediction on its quality, but I can say that I plan on giving it a shot. The animation quality is there, and the ability to tell a story through WoW models is there. We’ll see about the writing, I suppose. If you can’t see Youtube at home for some reason, here’s an alternate Vimeo link . Previously on Moviewatch ..
