WoW Moviewatch: 9 Times by Brunhila
We're big fans of 9 Crimes by Damien Rice; the music is beautiful and the lyrics are striking and haunting. We're also fans of Brunhila, who brings strong vocal talent to the world of WoW filk. Her remake of Mad World is one of my favorite parodies in the last year. Obviously, I was excited to see Brunhila tackle Rice's song with 9 Times. It's a familiar raiding story; a guild's raid has too many melee, and someone has to sit out. Make sure you watch the video all the way through, though. Something about the little girl shouting "Let's gank some noobs!" made me giggle like a madman. I really love Brunhila's stuff. Her voice is amazing, and she brings some serious vocal talent to her parodies. We could always use more of that, and I'm grateful she's doing so. Interested in the wide world of machinima?

WoW Moviewatch: 9 Crimes
I know I say this every time, but it bears repeating again: I am constantly amazed at what Machinimist are creating these days. The latest entry in the "How Did They Pull That Off?" category is 9 Crimes. This video, set to a haunting song of the same name performed by Damien Rice, is evocative and one of the best love stories I've seen set in Azeroth. But don't worry, there's plenty of battle footage in there as well. If you are not familiar with Damien Rice's work and enjoy this song, I also highly recommend you check out "The Blower's Daughter". It will stay with you for a long time. EDIT: Big shout out to Moo Money at Massively for turning me on to this awesome vid! Previously on Moviewatch...
Cinemassively: 9 Crimes
To quote our next Cinemassively Machinimator, Sangkaratul , "Love is a crime, whose beginning is a glance and whose ending is eternity." 9 Crimes, set in World of Warcraft, is based on a song of the same name by Damien Rice. It is a tragic love story that delivers all the way up to the credits.Speaking of credits, Sangkaratul is very thankful. He thanked his family, his cat, our sister site WoW Insider, and even Riot Films, who definitely influenced this film's direction. Everything about this video is stunning, yet the director claims that this is his first piece. We should all be so lucky!
