From "The Guild" comedy group. :D

“Do You Wanna Date My Avatar”

Funny & quite fitting to some MMO's like WoW but not quite to LotRO IMHO.
The series wanders off the side-cracking jabs at MMO's as it follows more of their personal lives but it has it's moments. I'll be watching season 3 when it comes out. :)

Well, I must say "The Guild" has certainly taken a 90* turn with Season 3.

Seems the lowest-common-denominator is now the driving force behind the newest shows. From a hip, funny and clean show ABOUT online gaming & those playing it, it has descend into raunchy language & blatant sex references for cheap laughs with little to do with the "gaming" aspect.

What transpired between Season's two & three who can tell besides the influx of sponsors & money. From maybe once a month shows they have produced 10 in just a few months.

I once recommended The Guild for fun viewing, but now it would be with an "Adults Only" caveat & I'm not even sure it's worth recommending any more based on it's original premise. One can only hope that Felicia Day returns the show to "The series about gamers" and not "The series about degenerates."

I don't know what the hell this is, but I like it.

Thanks for posting this. :)
Nicely done video, great setup, cuts and use of voice clips from various movies (mostly LotR) however, too bad they never actually assaulted Fornost. :angry: They "fought" to the gate then it ended- maybe they made a part 2?

If not, then I don't understand why they named it such: it obviously took time & effort to make then they fail to actually "do" what they say the video is about! :( Should have called it "Clearing the path to Fornost!"

Another video (10 min) by the Oathbreakers on Landroval.
A darn good storyline!

Lady Ophelia needs a spellchecker..."whilst"...:crosseye:

I don't normally get bent out of shape about spelling, but for a video presentation - especially one of that quality - I think it is pretty much mandatory to ensure that kind of stuff is triple-checked. Nice production values otherwise.

Also "Now the Enemies' Own Weapons Will be Turned Against Him"...one is plural, another is singular.

It's just hard to make you happy isn't it? :toilet:

You asked for more LotRO movies and poof, there one is made for you! :(

With all the work that went into that video to get the right screen-shots, players involved etc. I suspect that "spelling" was the last thing on their minds. An error yes, but nothing you wouldn't see even in movies with a budget! :)

Hey, they budgeted seriously time for that movie - just doing up the end-credits probably took them forever! :laugh:

Ok, I'm stumped - how did they get the fell spirits into Bree to "film" them? That was indeed impressive.
