There is a lot of machinima out there that makes me giggle, some of it makes me think about how they have captured the footage and woven it together, and a few make me think about the mad skills that the people responsible must have.
The following video blew my mind. Moreso than any WoW animation I've seen, including the Wrathgate cutscene. A reader named Len sent the link to us and I hope that its creator, percula, continues to make these things because I loved this one. Watch this.

This really makes me wish the combat in WoW was that involved rather than just "I hit you, you hit me."
The Woman is actually Lady Katrana Prestor, Not Lady Onyxia.
Same thing.
Also, the song was called 'Hide and Seek' pretty straight on considering...you know...a fucking assassin is in SW while the townsfolk try to find her. >.>
What tool do you need to get custom animations like that with WoW models?
Nice choise of gear and weapons to look like an assassin :)
Tier2 for rogue was the best ever, though blackwing lair was terrible, Chromaggus gave me nightmares, which changed to dreams when he dropped my nemesis and bloodfang shoulders ^_^
Good movie overall.
Isn't it obvious?
This is the plot.
This assasain was hired to kill that lady
because she is Onixya's mother.
(Hence the wings)
But the people at Stormwind don't know,
hence the title
Blind
Lady Prestor *is* Onyxia.
Also noticed something which i thought is exactly as an in-wow NPC as well. seems I was wrong but still the human rogue used for this looks pretty much like
Osborne the Night Man, rogue trainer - without the
beard / mustache.

Kill me if I'm wrong.
Btw just read some comments and one really upset me :
The music is kind'a cool and sexy :P love the song and really fits to the movie.
well that's.......rather awesome, almost makes me want to play a rogue even though i know better.
You could cut the sexual tension between those two rogues with a knife!
The music was incredible; The video was amazing. I first saw this video half a year ago; and today found that song stuck in my head... I will not rest until I have an MP3 version of it - and anything else made by that artist... Great music - Those of you that hated it -- let me guess - you enjoy the 'thrash metal screaming' crap that's in a lot of other wow videos don't you... (/puke) Anyone who likes Dance/Technopop will love the soundtrack 'Hide & Seek" by Namie Amuro
