WoW Moviewatch: Think Again

Think Again is a WoW-themed music video created by Bloodsprayer Movies. With an author name like that, I was expecting something much more violent.
This isn't really my kind of music, so it's difficult for me to layer a lot of meaning between the spoken words and the background imagery. I think that Think Again is largely meant to be a tableau piece, and reading too much into the action would probably be foolhardy.
The video isn't bad. It's got a few squips and blurring issues, as even the author pointed out, but I think that some real love and care was put into Think Again. As with many folks just getting started with machinima, Bloodsprayer is probably growing skills with each new video. I look forward to seeing what comes next.

Hmm, not bad for a first effort, and loved that tune when it first came out. Liked the timing of the cuts to match the beats.

Oops, after posting that i realise it looks like a first post 'cos i used the word first twice, trust me that was just an unfortunate coincidence!

WTF! TROLL! Just kidding, good opinions. I didn't think you were trying to look like the first poster.

I thought this movie was confusing because I could barely understand the words and thus the plot. It just seemed like it would be more fitting for a rave party...
The animations were great for a first movie though and sequencing was balanced. My rating would be 6/10 just for the music though.

Is it really written there that Lich King would be a boss in a 5-man dungeon or I just have reading problems?
"Icecrown Citadel will feature a massive five-player dungeon sprawling across three wings of the citadel's foundation. "
bla-bla-bla
"The Forge of Souls"
bla-bla-bla
"The Pit of Saron"
bla-bla-bla
"Halls of Reflection
With Jaina and Sylvanas leading the way, adventurers who make it as far as these frigid halls will quickly recognize the weapon that lies ahead: Frostmourne, the corruptive, legendary device of the Lich King himself. The Lich King's private chambers are within reach, although they may be the death of anyone who ventures there.
Bosses
Falric and Marwyn: Captains for Arthas Menethil in life, Scourge commanders for the Lich King in death, Falric and Marwyn will be summoned to the Halls of Reflection for one purpose: destroying all intruders.
The Lich King: Sylvanas, thirsty for vengeance against the corrupted prince who sentenced her to an existence as an undead monstrosity, and Jaina, eager to find a flicker of Arthas's soul locked somewhere within the Lich King, have brought their hand-picked allies to this final confrontation. Arthas's true power may only now be discovered. Is there any hope in this mission, or does only death await?"

Fail machinima of Blood elves doing thier emotes along with a terrible song in the background is fail.

I realize Music based Machinima are quick and easy to watch and make up the majority of the available content out there.
But do we really have to get so many reviewed? It seems like for the past weeks alls the WoWmoviewatch has covered has been music based Machinima. True, some like Oxehorn's latest have been good and created entirely by the creator. But really? Another one? Again? Could we please get someone doing the Moviewatch to review non-musical Machinimas?
These 'music videos' got old a year ago.

Not bad, but someone needs to explain to him the rule of thirds and the definition of "too much head-room". Cinematography rules apply in WoW just like anywhere else.
