WoW Moviewatch: The Care Bear

In this story, an Orc Care Bear encounters a Human warrior. After some successful attempts at communication, the situation takes a turn for the worse when other Horde players show up.
I was enchanted by The Care Bear, mostly because of how well Beckman conveyed emotion and plot without dialogue. No one speaks a word, but you can still empathize with the situation and characters.

What a fantastic movie! I can fully understand the frustration of the Orc when an opposite faction member offers to destroy a group quest monster.
I always play on Normal servers though so this can happen without any accidental deaths.

I am SO that orc.

Transfer to a PvE server, like I did?

I'm more like the Warrior.
Though, I'd help him finish his quest, then murder him for being a filthy orc. But at least I helped him first!

Me too. :) I'm the carebeariest carebear that ever carebeared.
(And StClair, I also transferred to a PvE server.) ;)

Very nicely done. /clap
You just summed up why I don't like so many PvP players. They tend to be the "shoot first, never ask any questions later" type. They also likely wouldn't even help someone of their own faction out while they corpse camped the guy.

Loved it, I really only PVP in BGs, out in the world I have no interest in the opposite faction unless they are harassing someone of mine.
Although it is really fun to not only take out an opposing member that is harassing your friend but to wipe out the entire little alcove of NPC's they ran to for protection.

I am so that Orc.
But then I would log to my PvP geared Draenei Priest, invite the warrior to a group, and THEN we'd see who'd be killing who. o_o
I have, in the past, helped out players of the opposing faction on quests when it was one guy vs. something pretty freaking impossible. I like making someone's day.

I had a Nelf DK Care Bear help my Belf Warrior with a group quest in Hellfire Pen the other night. Made me all squishy inside.

1. The warrior is sexay as hell
2. Shockingly RPJ is a care bear ... unless you're playing a Forsaken lol
3. Very nice video - I hope to see more of their work :D

Please tell me you have seen Azerothian Super Villians.
RetPallyJil Oct 18th 2011 2:59PM
Sure have :D Just never paid attention to names back when I did.
"Illidan'th my betht friend ever!"

Ah, the times when I've helped out and/or been helped out by Hordies, the two of us communicating only through emotes. I'm glad I'm on a PvE server so I don't have to worry about getting corpsecamped randomly.

> getting corpsecamped randomly.
That, my friend, is why alts are made.
Don't make me get my main!

Really loved that. The orc is so lovely. My heart went out to him. :)

That has to be one of the better machinimas I've seen in a long time. The author really used the limitation of the medium to his advantage. I have to say, I laughed out loud (for realz) at the end.

Aww. I like this video.
I am totally a carebear who will not PvP unless dire circumstances demand it.
I once spent 15 minutes protecting a lowbie troll player from mobs in Borean Tundra. I don't know how he got there, but he sure wanted to fish. He was like level 60 or something and the mobs were one shotting him. O.o
I was also there to fish--doing one of the Dalaran dailies. I stayed watching his back until I had to go. :)
Mortenebra Oct 18th 2011 3:22PM
Haha, I love love love this... I've been in both positions before. Makes up some of my best memories in the game.
Shinae Oct 18th 2011 4:05PM
Yay, you got your userpic loaded! Very nice!
