WoW Moviewatch: Zinwrath

I don't know about you, but one of my favorite pieces of WoW machinima is Myndflame's Illegal Danish. It was one of the first piece of WoW machinima I saw, and it left me fascinated by the way you could tell stories in what I'd thought was just an ordinary video game. And if, like me, you've been waiting on the sequel to Illegal Danish for a while now, I offer this as a substitution. It's not the latest episode of Illegal Danish, but it is an older work by Myndflame that has similar sensibilities and some of the same characters. I present: Zinwrath!

"Yeah well, are you also 'He who wanted a bronze tube' by chance?"
By far my favorite WoW machinima. Though, I haven't seen the other Illegal Danish one.
One of the first videos I saw where the voice acting didn't utterly suck and they actually had a sense of comic timing.

I don't understand.
The only funny line was "Gold doesn't come from leprechauns'. Gold comes from China."
Everything else was a mess. Can someone explain to me WHY the Myndflame movies are good? I can understand how their editing/directing is brilliant, but I would never call any of these movies my favourite. And it's not that I'm against stupid comedy, either. But this makes no sense. There's no order or plot whatsoever.

Yeah, they really aren't that good. I think people give them props because the authors obviously put a lot of time and effort into creating the videos, but that's about it.
When showing WoW machinima to friends who have never played WoW before, I've got a handful of videos I'd show them before I'd ever show them this, or any other Myndflame videos.

this one isn't very good, but a lot of the others are awsome, like snackys journal, and the follow up movie to this one.
