WoW Moviewatch: Raid Eats
The video is short and concise. I think Bullworth does a really great job of avoiding long cuts and pauses that would disrupt from the flow of his movie. I'm not sure who the target audience for Raid Eats would be, since it seems aimed at new raiders. If I did need that kind of functional raid tip, I'm pretty sure I would have found the information enlightening. But machinima doesn't tend to focus on the early level of play, so I'm a little concerned I may have missed satire or something.
The technical skills displayed by Bullworth are solid. While Raid Eats may not have the highest tiers of graphic manipulation, I think Bullworth shows a lot of sophistication and talent for putting together convincing scenes. Bullworth seems like he knows what he's doing. I'll definitely be watching him in the future to see where his further works go.
Edit: As the first two commenters point out, Raid Eats is a spoof of Good Eats. Great catch! Obviously, that clears up the issue about whether it's satire or aimed at new raiders.

It's a parody of the Altom Brown's show Good Eats on the Food Network, and it's done pretty true to form.

Gah! you beat me!

Lol, I think what you missed was that its a parody of a show on Food Network called "Good Eats" hosted by Alton Brown. It's a very informative show with some (kinda strange) humor and the camera shots are from some very strange angles (inside cupboards, fridge, etc...). The video has the same music at the beginning and end as the show.

Alton Brown is the man and this is a very well done parody.

Holy cow! I love Good Eats and this was a great Azerothian version! Excellent job, Bullworth!

I just love when he says he's had his fishing pole since lv 5, and it breaks. lol

2 days in a row of good WoWmovies, the sky must be falling.

Wow. Good job. The male tauren as the main character kindof reminded me of Oxhorn, though. But that may not be a bad thing. Keep up the good work, Bullworth!

OMG! Hilarious! Great Job!

Oh man... totally epic. will watch a few more times for sure. I do agree as well, did remind me of oxhorn, which i certainly don't think is a bad thing at all. hope to see more from Bullworth

I watch Good Eats all the time, this was a pretty good likeness.

Moar Raid Eats, plox.

This was a damn near spot-on copy of the show. Even the "Like the hat" aside is lifted from the show. THe only sad part: No bad sound-alike of James Bond over "R".
Still, fantastic job. Ya don't need a lot of filters when you run on a great premise. And Thing ruled too.

Has to be said, if you're a fan of the original Good Eats, this is HILARIOUS. Very well done! :-)

Thank you, Thing.

I've seen Good Eats a few times, and though Alton Brown is fine in other shows, I'm not a fan of that one in particular (the skits and some humor aren't to my liking). However, the fact that I've seen the show a couple times lets me enjoy this video, and I really do. And I loved the old fishing pole bit.

Excellent parody on Good Eats, my favorite cooking show of all time. Keep up the good work, Bullworth!
