World of Warcraft may be the most popular MMORPG ever. Over 3.5 million people are now playing worldwide. Tons of fan sites have popped up, celebrating this massive online fantasy world. And some people are quite creative with the resources provided by the game. No, I am not talking about the Chinese farmers who find the best places in the game to loot gold and resell for exhorbitant prices on ebay. I am talking about those who have found a way to capture the visuals of WoW and direct their own mini-movies, thereby creating their own storylines and changing the game to an entirely new art form.
Check out Warcraft Movies for a sampling of some very interesting films created by WoW fans. One of my favorites is called The Shorties. It shows what happens when a gnome and a dwarf raise the ire of some very tall humans.
Frankly, I can't believe people spend this much time creating these movies, but they are very entertaining. Perhaps I should look in the mirror and wonder why I spend time viewing them. ;-)
