WoW Moviewatch: Queen Azshara's Revenge

by Michael Gray May 14th 2013 at 6:00PM

I'm not sure how realistic the idea of Azhshara retaking her throne actually is, but Killer Cookie seems to have put some real though into it. With a haunting soundtrack and wonderfully rendered graphics, Queen Azshara's Revenge nearly makes me root for the return of the vile queen.

Putting together faux-lore videos requires some forethought. If you stick too closely to the plot, then it's easy to confuse a viewer into thinking this is actually in the game. If you go divergent, you'll find that your audience doesn't care about your fiction. Killer Cookie nailed a middle ground in this video and created something truly interesting. And, like I said: totally gorgeous stuff.

WoW Moviewatch: He Ate My Heart

by Michael Gray Mar 7th 2013 at 3:00PM

Has it really been that long since we've had a Lady Gaga video? I guess so! But Killer Cookie's here to fix up that dry spell with He Ate My Heart. Don't worry, though: there's definitely a story underneath this definitely-a-music video.

I guess the story is up to interpretation. I definitely had that classic "someone done wrong, and now there's revenged to be had" feeling, but enough of the narration was cut up enough that I wasn't absolutely certain.

He Ate My Heart is a fun video. I appreciate the effort and skill that went into the animation and the overall idea is solid. I look forward to Killer Cookie's next effort, because I think it could be impressive.
