WoW Moviewatch: Raid Eats 2: Cake!

I actually think the sequel is better than the original Raid Eats. The camera work and storyline seems to flow a little more naturally, and the voice acting feels like it's stepped up a notch. The video is short and fun, and pleasant to watch. It's certainly not high-end story based machinima, but Raid Eats 2: Cake! is a lot of fun.
I like the segmentation and pop-in work Bullworth is doing. He does a lot to add meta-commentary by dragging in recipes from the side of the viewing screen, and I appreciate that extra little emphasis it places on his plot.

OMG! I clicked play, and my greatest hopes were realized! A GOOD EATS PARODY! Thank you, Moviewatch. You've made my day.

Wowcrendor and a new Raid Eats? This is shaping up to be an excellent week on WoW Moviewatch.
Grats, Bullworth on another great show. :)

Moonkin lay eggs? *brain breaks*
Love these parodies.

As a devoted Good Eats watcher, he gets the tone nearly perfect. I'm extremely impressed and this put a silly smile on my face. How about the Northrend emotion snacks next?

I loved this! Spot on homage to my favorite show! I was slightly put off by the fact that the reviewer seemed to completely fail to grasp this was a parody though.

These Raid Eats episodes are so much like the real thing, I can almost taste it!
Please sir, may I have some more?

I saw the first part yesterday and I gotta say this is one of the most innovative machinima things out there. I don't know the original show, but this kept me entertained :)

The show "Good Eats" explores the science, history, and culture behind various foods and cooking techniques.
The host, Alton Brown (along with several recurring characters and silly props), uses a strong dose of comedy to keep the topics interesting. Bits of related trivia are interspersed between the scenes.
You should be able to find several examples on YouTube. They're absoutely worth watching in their own right. :)

Awesome, but I think he mixed up W and Deborah (the nutritional anthropologist)...but all in all a very good parody of Good Eats :). Looking forward to more.

Dude, I smell a weekly series! Just think of all the recipes you can work on!!!
This is probably the best WoW movie I've seen in a long time. Keep up the good work.

I was entertained! Kudos on not making another music video.

I was excited to see a sequel to Raid Eats and the video delivered exactly what I was hoping for. Keep up the great work, I'd love to see more of these!

I was so excited to see another Raid Eats episode! Not only another one, but one to make Alton Brown proud. Bullworth does a good job with these, given the time constraint.
But, I really need to suggest Michael watched a few Good Eats episodes. I think you'd appreciate what Bullworth is doing even more.
Constructive Criticism: In the last one I thought he spent too much time on obtaining a the reputation for his fishing pole and not enough time on the plethora of fishing poles available (Nat says Hi).
In this one, I felt someone should have mentioned that while simply knowing cooking may be enough to make the recipe, you still need to be level 65 and cooking 350 in order to start doing the cooking dailies to get the recipe - I am unsure if the Shattrath cooking daily requires a minimum cooking skill to pick it up, but then you'd need level 70.
Seriously, though, so happy for a second one.

Bullworth has done it again! Great ep...Keep em coming! Alton would be proud!
