Which cinematic was your favorite? The betrayal of the Forsaken at the Wrathgate still holds a very special place in my heart since it was the first time cinematics were done in WoW. It was a home run from the start. Watching Sky Captain Swayze and Ka'anu jump out of the Skyfire, along with my raid, also ranks high on the list of cutscenes for me, even if it's only a few seconds long.
What do you guys think? Vote!
| The Wrathgate | |
|---|---|
| The Lich King's Demise | |
| Goblins leave Kezan as slave, sail into an Alliance vs. Horde naval battle | |
| Worgen transformation and capture | |
| Thrall and the Dragon Soul versus Deathwing | |
| Parachuting onto Deathwing's back | |
| The Twilight of the Aspects, Deathwing's defeat |
Brace yourselves for what could be some of most exciting updates to the game recently with patch 4.3. Review the official patch notes, and then dig into what's ahead: new item storage options, cross-realm raiding, cosmetic armor skinning and your chance to battle the mighty Deathwing -- from astride his back!

Someone voted for Twilight of the Aspects? WTF?

Wrathgate, without a doubt.

Indeed, even though he was the bad guy, I loved Putress's lines
"Did you think we had forgotten, did you think we had forgiven?" "Death to the Scourge and Death to the Living!"

The Wrathgate, if only because it made me proud to be a Forsaken. I nerdgasmed so hard.

/sigh RIP Battle for Undercity quest....

Wrathgate for sure. I was so pissed when they took that Undercity quest out. That whole thing was so epicly epic. That and I had an alt that was just getting to that zone right after they took it out, that was depressing.

Wow, no love for the Worgen cutscent? At least Wrathgate is amazing. Long, but far from over-long.
Prelimar Dec 15th 2011 8:51PM
if i could've voted for two, the worgen would've been my second one. but the wrathgate is just tops.

Easily Wrathgate, in my opinion. By a wide margin.
jealouspirate Dec 15th 2011 8:09PM
In fact, I think I need to go watch it right now.
Philster043 Dec 15th 2011 8:13PM
I was the third vote for Wrathgate. It's now 150 votes as of this post!

There was a closing cinimetic? I didn't even know Vanilla had cinimetics in game.

It was unfair to the other cutscenes to include Wrathgate in this poll. Given the options, there is no serious contender.

Novice animators crank video after video using the wow engine that is far better than the Wrathgate. Blizz is just lazy.

"Did you think we had forgotten, did you think we had forgiven? Behold now, the terrible vengeance of the Forsaken! Death to the Scourge and death to the living!"

Please tell me I'm not the only one who wants to go into the middle of nowhere and just bellow these lines and then cackle aloud like a lunatic, because these are the best lines in all of World of Warcraft.
