    Reminded me of the early Jackie Chan films. Very nicely done!

    This cienamtic does nothing to explain what mop is about. The alliance and horde land on pandaria and contiue their battles with one another. The pandaren coming in and subduing them makes everything look confusing.
    The only way they could have done this is by showing the entire zone of pandaria filled with conflict brought from bouth sides with the pandaren as the guys who are caught in the middle of it desperatly defending their homes. This show nothing and only adds to the confusion of the overall theme.
    Still other than a questinable plot the cinematic quality is top notch as always. Blizzard sure knows how to bring their worlds to life with CGI. While it does not perfectly describe the expantion it still shows the basics off it. Horde Allaince and the Pandaren along with their lands . The only fault is that it could have shown off their new theme much better.

    Bad, very bad style, too cartoony...especially the human and the orc, try to put them into the Wotlk cinematic and Lich King would have lol'd..Don't start with wow is cartoony, I have played since first beta, I'm talking about cinematics not ingame graphics! And what about the Belf from TBC cinematic, put her next to MoP cinematic chars...aaargh...orc n human in MoP cinematic are so blocky heads...the orc upper body is 2 times the size of his lower body, i mean WHAT THE F!? Is this WoW or Warhammer!?

    Great video. Too bad the game plays nothing like that. I would love to see WoW with that immersion and mystery factor.

    Orcs have always had huge bulky bodies. Why in the world would you compare the Orc to a Blood Elf, the most waifish of all of the game's races? Try comparing the Draenei in the same cinematic as the Belf to the Orc in the MoP cinematic and the similarities in proportion will be obvious.
    Arthas also had proportions quite similar to the human in this cinematic.

    To bad they seem to have spent more time on that trailer than on the game itself!

    Hm. A elf sucking up the mana being of a (mana)dragon, next to an Orc and a human, fighting with realistic weapons and techniques?

    Oooooh, goood. Seems like a perfectly reasonable argument.
    Let's not forget about the super-bouncy raptor troll, or the sheeped Tauren, or the Orc FLYING through the air to cut up naga like it was a hot knife through butter.

    Awesome cinematic laughrd at the human giving the orc a weapon:P

    Btw, ppl saying wtf human and orc together ?

    REMEMBER FUCKING WRATHGATE? They fight togethet against a bigger enemy..wich is here a panda

    Ppl saying this will suck , u are NOT a vanilla player and u should get that anti blizzard glasses of your retarded face ,

    Vailla had no main villiand and was about war between the horde and the alliance .. Same here ? So why hate on something that almost got the same 'idea' of exp..(english ain't great sorry there )

    Just my 2cents , ppl saying pandas are childish need to look at their self and think , isn't killing dragons all kver again childish ? Diddnt u fought dragons when u we're a kid ?

    If you put the Blood Elf from tBC cinematic beside the Orc and Human in the MoP cinematic, she would look like a technical joke. They fit in very well with the style of the game. Hell, for a second I thought that Orc was gonna be Thrall straight from a War3 cinematic.

    Oh god, that reminds me. They better have a 'Making of' video for this cinematic. i want to see how much they had to suffer for this one >.<

    If anything, I find it amazing how consistent Blizzard has been with their cinematic styles since Warcraft 3.

    Look at Thrall and Grom in the Warcraft 3 cinematic depicting Grom's death, and then look at the Orc in the MoP cinematic... yes, the MoP one has cleaner animation and far more detail, but the style is almost unchanged! That's more than impressive, that's an unbelievable feat in and of itself. Warcraft 3 is 10 years old!

    That's what's always so good about Blizz's stuff; You can always tell it's theirs. I'm personally hoping our old character remodels are of this quality! Or.. well, you know.. not cinematic quality.. you know what I mean!

    That was quite bad imo :/

    If I didnt know any better, I would think it was a signal of how the pandas teach the horde and alliance to live in peace and harmony, and what's with the teaming up all of a sudden.

    All it did, was make me wish they had added naval battles.

    It should have been alot more serious, and not make horde/alliance look like incompetent fools, who'll get run over by pandas.

    Edit: Also, pandas team up with either hode or alliance, but they fight to protect their homeland? this cinematic should have been for a 3rd faction tbh.

    A brilliant cinematic, but I'm strugling to see why a human and an orc suddenly work togeather when they should be at the hight of tensions after Theramore. But still, it looks fantastic

    I liked the cinematic very much, brought WC2 back to mind. 10/10.

    If i had this game pre-ordered, I would've cancelled it. That trailer was absolute shit, I want my 4 minutes back.

    I like how the Human gave the Orc his other stick. It felt like he was saying, "It's dangerous to go alone, take this."

    ha ha - Cinematic makes it look like Panda's will be massively overpower. reminded me of DK's at the start of Wrath.

    And yes I know it's a cinematic and not actual game play. just made me chuckle a little....
