Movie Summary
The best mage PvP movies have no summary at all or an awesome one-liner such as: �Hi
This is my new movie, don�t expect anything special
Bye�
�
This movie doesn�t have that.

ATTENTION: The following text is "omg Too long did not read" SO if you don't want to read this long summary, read from THIS LINE to the other!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This movie has the following section:
Intro part - "Mage Standard Movies"
Part 1 - The last Knights of Ravenholdt
Part 2 - Zel��n vs Zekoz, fire duels to the death
Part 3 - Ocyrage in Gurubashi
Outro part - You Save Me from Myself

Starting info:
During these recordings my mage had 284-300 something in resilience depending on the recordings, where I have Hateful Shoulders and PvE shoulders.
I had below 1700 spell power (lowest 1652) during these recordings, so no high crits or anything awesome like that.

And yes I am a human mage. Believe me, if I could change race for free, I would not. Never. I love being human.
Unless I could be female gnome. Then I would race change.
- Hah... fun.

So now that we have that cleared let me put something completely straight if you are not watching the movie already: This is a PURE WPvP (aka. Ganking) movie including duels. That means:
NO ARENA & NO BATTLEGROUND

(To the lazy people, enjoy the movie. Ps: If you want the song list, skip to the next line)

Details about the moviemaking, the idea of this movie, and what I had in mind to create.

The intro: Alot of people has been asking for the reason of this intro, so I will do my best to express myself. The idea was to make it fit with the music first of all, and then secondly try to keep it catchy. This was nearly impossible, I realised, when the content was so bad, and I had to cut in between the scenes to make it look like I wanted it to look.
The text does not make any sense at some points: Really, it wasn't meant to do in the first place. I know many tend to ask: "Why the hell make a RP intro that long and with such an annoying text?" because that's what I wanted to create. I wanted to create a mood about my character, a human, wandering in the hills by himself, going fiercely into battle by himself and standing with nobody by his side but himself.
The random text was created, as if it was his (my characters) thoughts outloud. They don't connect, they don't make sense, they are just words, but to me it seemed cool and different, and most important of all fitting with the music.

The whole idea about this movie was keeping it simple with a twist of something new, and a bit of Role-play/storyline without hanging too much in it and making it all too serious. I feel that I have succeeded on that part.

The music I used in this movie meant a lot. It is my own preferred music, not a big hit, not scream-o music and definitely not overused. I wanted to make it fusion with the editing in such a way, that there were no over-editing but keeping it simple and fitting with the music, so that it caught the mood I wanted it to catch. Some will enjoy this hopefully and some will not.

Concerning the entire content of this movie, I really didn�t have much. All in all I had about 3-4 days of complete content to make use of, and the duels I had was far from useful since during these recordings I had just returned to this game, and playing very slow, hesitating, freezing and rusty (which meant I was literally getting my ass kicked while looking confused)
So at best, this is my average content of game and nothing like my abilities on a good day, nonetheless I don�t have the patience to gather further material so I left it at that.

About the title, the �Knights of Ravenholdt� were mainly focused on the WPvP actives we have on our lovely drama server (We have the most entertaining forum of all time I�d say) I would never leave Ravenholdt for any means.
Nonetheless: The negative part in the storyline is focused on my feeling of being abandoned and walking alone as an alliance. Many of my friends faction changed to horde on our server (thank you so much for the money making theme blizzard, it�s really awesome that you keep changing the game � Can�t wait for cataclysm�)
Luckily some didn�t faction change. I would have made a �thank you� list, but chose not to because it�s such a mainstream thing. The people that I would like to thank know that I am grateful for them being a part of this game.

If you actually read the whole thing then thanks for caring but really, all you are actually here for is the song list am I correct? If anyone want it:

Songlist:
The first song I simply don�t have a name on. It was used as a theme title for an event I participated in.

The rest of the songs are following:
Muse � Knights of Cydonia
Kasabian � Club Foot (Overused if you say so�)
The Wiseguys � Ooh La La
Carpark North � Save Me from Myself

I hope you enjoy the movie. Constructive criticism is most welcome. A down rate is fully accepted if a good reason is applied to it.

Edit: I had never dreamed about this movie even getting spotlighted. I would just like to thank all for the constructive criticism, and to those that found my movie entertaining. I will be taking all these comments with my in my upcoming movie. I still think WPvP is the most entertaining in game.
You never know what lies on the other side, you never know if the boomkin you've been killing three times, brought his rogue friend this time. You can never know. The unpredictable and unknown in WPvP is what makes it exciting.
