WoW Moviewatch: Exploring the World of Warcraft


I am a great fan of documentaries. They show us a detached viewpoint on a topic that often brings new insight into the subject matter. This documentary, created by Tim Little, is no exception. As he says it's aimed at a non-gamer audience, so it takes the game from release until today, including a couple player interviews, and explains the WoW experience for those who don't play. It's like looking at a history of your family, only it's the World of Warcraft family rather than a flesh and blood familial bond.

I appreciated the footage of the global release of The Burning Crusade. When I picked up my copy there were only 19 of us standing outside the store. It's great to see the throngs of gamers and to imagine what it must have been like to be there with them. Thanks Tim for sharing this project with us. I hope you got an A.
