Blizzard only does their own games. Check out the last couple of cinematics they’ve done for their games:

Crazy nice stuff!
The Warhammer stuff is dope too!
Was it Blur or Blizzard that did the Warhammer Dawn of War spots? Those were pretty damn good too!

Digging the “Frazetta” influence here, all the frames are amazing paintings. Great!

I love the aqua and turquoise color pallet. From the deep blue glacier ice to the burning blue steam. It’s great how in every single shot there is so much production value. This is the best CG snow I’ve seen.

“If I recall, there was some talk about a feature length in the works… somewhere…”

Yeh, Blizzard announced some time ago that they would be working with Legendary Pictures on a live action picture though nothing else has been said about the project since and I believe it might be on hold.

The projects imdb profile: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0803096/

Blizzard has always been one for producing amazing cinematics like this (you’d probably be equally impressed with their previous installments). If I recall, there was some talk about a feature length in the works… somewhere…

Why is this not a movie. There is nothing like it, not even the final fantasy movie came close to this, and this is just a trailer. Amazing soundtrack also.

This is one great trailer! Blizzard has certainly made it a point that all their trailers are flawless and fabulous! *Kowtow*
