WoW Moviewatch: The Guild, Episode 5
In the latest episode of The Guild, the World of Warcraft-centric series featuring Felicia Day (if you haven't seen it before, catch up on episodes 1, 2, 3, and 4!), we learn why it's not always the best idea to meet your guildmates in real life. Guild drama is bad enough when it's virtual -- why drag real life into it? (Thank goodness my guildmates don't know my real name... at least I hope they don't.)Previously on Moviewatch...
WoW Moviewatch: The Guild, episode 4
Yet another episode of the quickly-becoming a fan favorite series The Guild has hit the 'net, and in this episode, the players decide to all meet up in real life. Always an interesting experience, and as you might expect, this happening is no exception.One of the series' charms has always been that it perfectly captures the experience of being an MMO guildie, and the punchline at the end of this one is probably the best and most real joke I've seen in the series yet. No matter how much my guildies and I may or may not have in common whenever we meet up in real life, there's always one thing we can all count on. Funny stuff.Thanks, Paul!
WoW Moviewatch: The Guild Gag Reel
As gag reels go, I can't say this is the funniest one I've ever seen (and if you're at work, it'll have to wait anyway-- it's NSFW). But it is very interesting to see behind the scenes of the ever-more popular WoW-based web series The Guild. There are scenes collected here from the first three episodes, and it's cool to see the mostly unknown cast out of character and joking around in front of the camera. They call this vid "a little thank-you to our subscribers," and say that episode 4 is "in the can" and coming soon. So enjoy, Guild fans.
Actress talks to gamer about WoW dedication
The guys at LiquidGeneration went a step beyond stalking an actress and actually scored an interview with the WoW-playing USPS ad girl.Felicia Day is best known in TV circles as the potential slayer "Vi" during the final season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but she also found a bit of notoriety as "Angie," the USPS-usin' woman for a Postal Service ad campaign. All we're interested in, of course, is her love of Ultima VII, Link (over Mario and Undead Warlocks), and 5 man Strat runs for her Level 60 Gnome Warlock.Maybe it's not the greatest revelation since Dave Chappelle showed some knowledge of the MMO, but many male gamers still manage to find a way of expressing shock that a beautiful woman (especially one who's found a measure of success in Hollywood) enjoys an online raid or two. We're just glad that an actress is willing to be upfront about her love of games--even she sometimes uses it to avoid talking about bad auditions.[Thanks, James]
