WoW Moviewatch: Chronicles of Leeroy episode 6 - Stranglegank Vale

The new Chronicles of Leeroy episode 6- Stranglegank Vale has been released by Herculean Productions. If you remember from the last episode, Leeroy and friends were levelling through their first instance. Now, the Horde party must handle their most difficult challenge so far: getting ganked in Stranglethorn Vale.

There have been a few production enhancements on this episode. The costumes are a little more defined, and I feel like the scenery has been stepped up a notch. Also, you get to see the Herculean team do their first interpretations of Alliance life. Even the computer graphics are a little more refined and contextual.

The movie has an interesting meta-commentary moment, when the two Alliance gaurds are standing next to each other. One actor uses a prop for the quest-giving exclamation mark hovering over his head, while the other guard's exclamation mark is a computer graphic. There's a brief moment when they kind of look at each other questioningly, and then go back to waiting for a Player Character to come get a quest. I wasn't sure what to make of the scene, but it clearly stuck out in my head.

Overall, I think the adventures of Leeroy are a lot of fun. Herculean Productions obviously puts a lot of effort and heart into these movies, and I enjoy every one I see.
