Spugnort's World

Now, I know that the holidays are rapidly coming to a close here, but I did find some holiday-related machinima this week that I thought truly worthy of sharing with everyone, so here goes!

• First we have one from NinthBatter, which is part of his ever popular “Nobody Like You” series.  This one is all about Hanukkah…and I have to say, I had NO idea Arthas was Jewish!! 
• Next up is a pretty cool one from Oxhorn that is part of his Christmas for Geeks album that we featured here last week.  It’s called It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like This Raid Isn’t Going to Happen (longest title ever) and I had to include it this week as I know it’s one we can all relate to on some level!
• Lastly we have one for  you from Firebolt Productions called Northrend Wonderland.  This one is hilarious as it shows a loyal servant of the Lich King trying to cheer him up…the way he does it is pretty great!  And anytime I get to hear the Lich King sing is WIN! in my book!

Ok, well that’s what we have for you this week in our belated holiday version of Movie of the Week.  See you next year!

This week’s Comic Corner contains some newcomers and a few funnies from our favorite WoW-related web comics.   You can check out this week’s picks below!

• First we have one from Dungeons and Draenei that shows just how little respect Resto Druids get around here!  Too funny…I love the look they’re giving in the second to last frame!!
• Next I found another one from Slash AFK, this is a fairly new one to us since we have only featured it one other time, but I have to admit I really like the “Emo” feel of this comic strip…it makes it stand out from the rest!
• Next up is a total newcomer to our Comic Corner from ITG and it shows the De-Evolution of the Quest.  This one really had me laughing thinking about how we all used to spend hours running around looking for quest objectives and now…we wiki or heck it’s even built into the game for us these days!
• Now we have one from one of my personal favorites, NPC called Of Avatar and Avatars.  Now this one really made me laugh because a guy friend of mine had stated after seeing Avatar that he was now only interested in 10 ft. tall blue chicks with tails…lol…yes I am talking about YOU Billy!!  Anyhow I thought this was pretty hilarious!
• Ok, lastly we have one from NoObz! which is a continuation of their Commandments Series.  This one had me laughing petty hard too…points out a nice play on words!

So, that wraps up the Comic Corner for this week!  Happy New Year everyone and we will see you back here next year!

Ok, so this week it was hard to choose from all the great movies out there, but I did and I have chosen a couple of them that will help get everyone in the holiday spirit if you’re not there already.

• The first movie this week is a very cheerful holiday music video written and produced by one of my favorite Machinima Artists, Cranius.  It’s called Greatfather Winter and if this one doesn’t get you excited for the upcoming holidays you must have ice running through your veins!  Nice job, Cranius!
• The next one I wanted to share with you this week is from Oxhorn, and although it’s more of an advertisement, I still liked it and I have to admit…I bought the album and I LOVE it!  Check out Oxhorn’s Christmas for Geeks.

So that’s it for this week’s movies…enjoy them and have a great holiday!

This week I was able to find a ton of comics, but I will refrain from showering you with all of them at once!  I will save a few for those weeks when I am not so fortunate.  So here are this week’s selections:

• The first is from NPC Comics and it shows what a major difference one letter can make!  Here’s Perky.
• Next we have a newcomer to the Comic Corner from Da!ly Quests.  In this one, called Grab The Light By The Horns, one of the characters has a vision of the upcoming race/class combo of a Tauren Paladin.  This is priceless!
• This next one is from NoObz! and it is yet another one in their Commandments series.  I really do like this one!
• Ok, now this one could be considered a little “risque” but I think it’s hilarious so I HAD to include it!  It come to us from Tim Buckley at Ctrl+Alt+Del and it had me rolling!
• Lastly we have an appearance from Vincent of Experience Points in a couple of holiday related comic entries.  I tried to choose just one and couldn’t.  So first there is the one where Vincent can’t resist dropping a hint to Santa. And the next one here is the best…but I had to hide it from my son as I didn’t want to give him any ideas!

So, there you have it!  This week’s funny bone ticklers!  Have a great week and a Happy Holiday!

This week’s movie is one from Silverlined Productions and I think it’s quite suiting considering the proximity to the release of 3.3.  Revenge Act 2 is another teaser vidoe for the Revenge movie which will hopefully be coming soon!  In this video, our hero is finally getting the chance at a show down with the Lich King, which is truly appropriate since patch 3.3 is releasing to day to live realms.  This is an excellent video just like the first one and I love the way our main character, Nixxiom, is idealized into the perfect hero!  I cannot wait to see the final film once it is all done…but isn’t that the point of the trailer?  To keep us wanting more?  Well it has worked!
