WoW Moviewatch: MMOvie
Originally, I thought this trailer was just a joke, but no-- it's real. Someone out there (from a site named Voig.com, apparently) is actually going to put together a feature length film featuring scenes from famous films redone in the World of Warcraft. Crazy.
That link above goes to an interview with the directors, where they talk about filming on a PvP server (why would you do that?), getting the costumes to match up just right, and the fact that it took 100 hours of capture, and "weeks and weeks" for their editor to get the whole thing done. Other than the interview, there's surprisingly little news going around about the movie-- no release date yet, and to be honest, I'm still not completely sure there is a full length movie, as the only note about that is in the small excerpt on the front page. At any rate, the trailer looks pretty sweet-- maybe we'll get to see more eventually.

Ever notice that all these websites who make machinima have epic projects "in the works" but no one ever releases.

Here's hoping for a rendition of one of George Romero's Dead films; Land of the Dead, preferably.

*groan*@fight club scene...
srsly, every freaking WoW movie has that same fight club scene
"1st rule: don't talk about fight club. 2nd rule: DON'T talk about about fight club. yadda yadda yadda"
That movie came out 10 years ago ppl. Time to move on...

Filing on the PVP server is very useful if you have a couple lvl 70 bouncers standing by from both horde and alliance, so that you can just kill people intruding on the set if they do not go away peacefully.
