* World of Predatorcraft * - A Video

Hey guys,

Here's a video I've been working on - it's basically a condensed version of the 1987 action film Predator, but with a warcraft twist.

I've had great fun making PVP videos in the past - the only problem being, I wasn't a good enough rogue to be able to make anything worth watching. I realised that if people wanted to see my overgeared, badly played character killing semi-afk undergeared noobs to a horrible soundtrack, there were already plenty of rogue videos out there that fulfilled this criteria nicely.

What I realised was, I much preffered editing and making movies than actual PVPing - and after one-too-many catchphrases yelled over teamspeak, the idea of making a Predator movie slowly took shape.

We had a great laugh making it and we lost count of the number of times confused level 30-something alliance players would blunder into camera shot, wondering what all these skull-level horde were doing running around in silly costumes. If you're not a great fan of cheesy 1980's action films, or perhaps if you're too young to have seen Predator, this movie may not be to your liking - but if your a child of the 80's and hold fond memories of these types of over the top sci-fi action blockbusters, like me, you might like it.

At the moment the warcraftmovies.com page only has a link to the premium sever and the filefront/stage6 link - but filefront has a very nice streaming function these days with good quality, if you don't want to download the full file - which is about 25 minutes long and 460mb in size. Their should be a google video link up soon once it's been approved.

I hope you guys have as much fun watching as we had making the film.

Cheers,

Zend.

I saw this last night and I must say that I enjoyed it quite a bit... It was a good and well executed idea :-)

The most beautiful part was Arnold Schwarzenegger portrayed as a Tauren... Funny stuff :-D




Man... Gotta watch Predator again soon!
