🟧 Filmmaker Reacts to Gaming Cinematics playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLWF6myhJ6iSvJVz1Iw1nmX0JIkn6OACka.html
Another layer to how hard this hit a lot of the Overwatch players was due to what they knew of Reinhardt going into the cinematic; which came out years after the game's release. Reinhardt had always been this meme of a tank where a lot of new players actually played him like the cocky young version where they would use the charge ability and swing their hammer around while leaving their teammates unprotected. After this cinematic came out, there was actually a NOTICEABLE increase in Reinhardt players who started playing like the cinematic suggested; thus showing that the best version of Reinhardt was the one who protected his team. Also, the cinematic was filled with references to a number of Reinhardt's in-game voice lines; most famously being "I am your shield." So, as a Reinhardt main, this cinematic hit us on a whole other level that really hammered home the identity of this tank and the proper way to play him.
Wow, interesting read. Clearly this cinematic left its mark on the audience. I don't even play the game and I know after watching this, I would want to be a shield. KZ
The only downside to it is that players embraced it TOO hard. Rein players started being TOO passive and teammates started demanding Rein players almost exclusively shield. Knowing when to do both is key to getting good with him; too much to either side and you're more a weakness than a strength!
@@KingOfNebbishesi miss having a zarya unleash me to swing like a madman
Hell yeah as a reinhardt main this is all too real
ha, HAMMERED home
"I have been called... I must answer... Always." that line has never failed to bring chills all over my body.
The way he delivers that line too, yikes! KZ
There are so many ways to take Reinhart being given that coin:
The passing of a mantle to a worthy successor, repaying a debt, a form of exile, and more.
And on some level, they're all true at the same time.
My favorite thing about the cinematic is how non-chalantly Reinhard says their salute in the beginning "Live with honor, die with glory" almost as if not understanding their true meaning. and then at the end when he says it again he really understands what it means.
I love it! Bang on. KZ
One thing I love about this cinematic is how you can infer that Reinhardt is quite literally walking the same path in the present that he did in the past.
He and Brigitte, the woman scolding him in the beginning, start in the bar and end up at Balderich’s throne just like in the flashback. This whole time, you can imagine Reinhardt telling her the story we’re seeing as they walk through the town. It’s a long winded way of explaining why he feels he has to answer the call. The whole flashback is used to explain it but it’s summed up in Reinhardt’s last line.
“I have been called. I must answer. Always.”
It's an incredible little story and carries a huge story in such a short amount of time. It really was spectacular! Thank you for checking out the video. KZ
Yeah considering all the detritus from this very fight is on the map (the robots his friend fights single handedly at the door, his body in the armor on the throne), apparently they never actually restored the city. So she would be seeing every blown out building and wrecked robot as he relives the fight, blow by blow.
It goes even deeper than that, Reinhardt's line mirrors Balderich's from the beginning of the cinematic when Rein flips the coin back. Therefore we infer that Rein is not answering the call for himself or even necessarily out of his own sense of duty, he is answering the call on behalf of the man who should have been there to answer if Rein's mistake had not cost him his life.
I also love how that cockiness that young Rein displays here is not completely gone in game. He is still cocky and loves a good brawl, but he has also learned his lesson, because his most defining line is "I will be your shield", whereas young Rein completely abandoned his comrades to get stuck in.
Absolutely! This was the lesson that changed him from being a boy to a man so to speak. Thanks for watching and hanging out. KZ
If my memory of the Overwatch lore is accurate. The Crusaders are known to say that their suits are also their tombs. They don't re-use the power armor if a Crusader dies in the field in their armor. Hence why he's still on that throne, all those years later. Also if I'm not mistaken, The Last Bastion takes place in the forests of Germany, implying Bastion should have been one of those Bastions assaulting that town or another city.
Wow, how interesting. Mate, that shot/reveal almost broke me man. I was told that the last bastion was on his way hence the reason I had to cover this one afterwards. KZ
The body is still there because the city of Eichenwalde (the one in the cinematic) was ultimately overrun by Omnics and abandoned by humans, and they couldn't get to him. After the Omnic Crisis was over, the city still remained abandoned - Colonel Baldrich and the Crusaders as a while are just a forgotten relic whose sacrifices are only remembered by a few. In the comic, Reinhardt arrives at Eichenwalde after all these years to retreieve his mentor's armor (and presumably his body) with Brigitte. The cinematic picks up from there.
I don't know if this is an official explanation or just someone's headcanon, but I heard once that the reason Balderich wasn't moved is because it's a tradition for the Crusaders to leave their body if they were killed in the line of duty. The purpose is to memorialize their final sacrifice, as it is generally the case that Crusaders expect not to die of old age, but while in action. And it's the greatest honor to give your life for others, hence, the leaving of the body. I love the look of confidence on Balderich's face when he watches Reinhardt leave. He knows that Rein has learned his lesson and will go on to save more lives, and he is resigned to his death, having felt that he had done everything that was necessary to fulfill his duty. His final stand is one of the best of any cinematic or screen.
Apparently, from a comment it's their tomb and they know this as soldiers. Thanks for watching and hanging out with me. KZ
Doesn't matter how bad blizzard games became nowadays, they always makes best cinematics
I've not really played their games tbh but I don't think I've seen a bad cinematic so far. Thank you for watching and commenting! KZ
They should’ve just closed the game and made a full on cinematic movie 😂
@@cowfreezyBlizzard isn't bad at making games, dude. You're just jumping on the same train as the majority coz of the public outcry, which I get but the games they make are still very well made. They messed up with OW coz of bad management decisions, but the game itself was once a game of the year and popped off. As for their cinematics, they're unmatched, but i have to say that Riot is learning nicely and doing a very good job at being a close second best.
The cinematic division at blizzard the only mfs who actually care about the game still😂
@@rusozawr4969 They're not bad at making games, but they're awful at monetization. The game is great, then they monetize it to actual death, killing it with greed, often by breaking it up and selling it in pieces, intentionally worsening the experience to then sell you parts to supposedly improve the experience.
Another touch I love about this cinematic, is that *arrogant Reinhardt* never uses his shield, only his hammer. His final moment of growth is giving his offensive weapon away. From then on he exclusively uses his shield (and then body) to defend his team. Beautiful.
And Baldric knows he made a good choice passing on the coin to Reinhardt at that moment too
At Blizzcon Reinheart's voice actor said that when record that scene of him saying "die with honor old friend" he was at arm's reach to the other actor and kept repeating the line over and over and he actually got emotional ... looked at the window and saw the crew telling him (trough signs) to keep going , don't stop because you can't get better than a genuine reaction.
I love it when an actor just gets it or they zone in. Epic! KZ
This doesn't just pull on the heart strings, It rips the heart out. The cinematic that involves Mei is really good.
Fantastic reaction and breakdown, thank you. As a soldier myself, this cinematic has always hit me the hardest out of all the Overwatch ones. The themes of duty, teamwork, and camaraderie. We are there for each other. Always.
Thank you so much for spending your time with me to hang out, it means a lot. I can see why this would hit you the hardest. Thanks again man. KZ
Back when Overwatch was made with some passion.
After watching this, you appreciate Reinhardt's lines in-game. When he activates his shield, he'd yell out "I will be your shield!" and the "Barrier is fading!" is something he says when his shield energy starts breaking.
Awesome upload man. This was one of my favorite Overwatch videos.
Thank you so much for hanging out with me man, it really means a lot! I loved this one and yet again, more leaking eyes! KZ
one of if not the best part of this cinematic is the story it tells of the town they are in (it being a playable map). The holes in walls and destroyed robots in game finally given context after months of playing on the map, a great example is the hole Rienhardt charges out of at the end to protect his team being a flanking route in game. Such brilliant attention to detail that hits all the harder as you retrace his steps in game as he does in the cinematic, fighting the enemy team in a battle so similar to this one.
This cinematic is short but it’s use of angles and camera movements truly hit hard.
Little things like the pan up from the robot’s foot and following the coin traveling provides a ton of context for the audience even if they don’t realize, Great vid as always!
It's even shorter because you're enjoying it! Just taken through it as we should. Thank you for coming back and hanging out with me. I hope you keep on returning to the channel. KZ
"i must answer, always" ... that line gets me every time
I also wanna point out something I rarely see people talking about, the difference in meaning both times "Live with honour, die with glory" is said.
The first time, Balderich says "Live with honour", seeing how he's Reinhardt's mentor, and the team leader. He lives by that line. In contrast, Reinhardt says "Die with glory", showing how he would prefer going down swinging.
However, the second time, the roles are reversed. Balderich says "Reinhardt. Live with honour." He says the line to Reinhardt directly, telling him to live by that, and to protect his team. Reinhardt, to that, says "Die with glory, old friend.", basically accepting Balderich's sacrifice, and telling him to take as many down with him as he can.
I am going to be honest - This is the first reaction video of yours I've watched in it's entirety. I never thought filmmaker breakdown will be of interest to me before... untill I left this video running in the background. You turned me completely around, the way you picked the cinematic apart and brought attention to the little things in it was both extremely entertaining, educational and almost mesmerising. Hats off to you, good sir. I now have a backlog of breakdowns to watch.
Wow, thank you! I'm glad my video could entertain you. The fact that you're here on this channel means a lot to me and I hope my other videos past and present keep entertaining you and you enjoy hanging out with me. Cheers! KZ
I didn't see anyone else mention it, but this cinematic takes place on an in-game map, and the body of Balderich is there in the map as well. People had wondered who the body belonged to for a long time before this cinematic came out, so it hit even harder.
Love how that coin was an actual physical part of the collectors edition of the original game. (still sitting on my desk)
Btw, if you haven't noticed: the forrest surrounding that village is the one we saw Bastion in (at the end of his movie you can see the castle in the back) somewhere close to Stuttgart (Germany)
which was the big city Bastion was moving towards and the place Reinhard and his comrades were supposed to defend while being stationed at Balderichs home (it's his castle...)
Also: if "The Last Bastion" and THAT was not enough for you to need the paper tissues then try "Rise and Shine" about the backstory of the character Mei (and her little robot Snowball).
I did know that thanks to you lovely people and thank you for the heads up. Are they all so touching? KZ
I hope the other Cinematics of Overwatch are also on your list.
Very great Video! Thanks for the company!
They certainly are but the main one after this is a new character??? So I think I'm on a time jump next with Overwatch. Thank you for hanging out with me, KZ.
I really like how you pointed out the journey of the coin.
There's usually several aspects of the breakdown that I already had a decent grasp on, though it's nice to hear it broken down by someone with a better film making vocabulary. But there's always some things you bring up that I hadn't (consciously) noticed.
The idea of using the coin to motivate a camera pan especially, plus all the other breakdowns were the best new gem I picked up this time.
Thank you for hanging out with me again. The more you watch of my videos, the more I will go over the same stuff due to film techniques being the same. What makes it different is how they use them to tell the story or help lead the cinematic. I change it up per cinematic due to how it personally effects me as a viewer and I just hope you keep enjoying them. I wonder what you'll learn next time?!
My next few videos will most likely be reaction only as they are for in-game cinematics but I hope you still enjoy them. Next cinematic breakdown will be Warframe. KZ
thank you for reacting to this! they did such a great job in storytelling, even if you don't play overwatch and don't know any of the characters, you just understand how they are, who they are, what they feel, and bond with them. also the ambience and music adds even much more depth to it. these cinematics never fail to give me chills or watery eyes. if you would like to see more, "rise and shine" is a very emotional one, "alive" and "infiltration" are more on the action-sided, and "reunion" is a funny/cool one :)
Next month, I plan on watching all of them. I'm going to do a big push. :D
@@kaizammit oh that's great! i'm excited to see you reaction :D
Thank you for this nice video ! I'm French and I really appreciate the fact that you deconstruct the realization to explain the meaning of what we see. By the way, something you didn't say, but which I noticed, is the difference between the way Rein speaks in the past and in the present. When he speaks at the very end, his voice is much deeper, wiser and calmer than in the past. We get a good sense of his evolution and the fact that he's matured, partly as a result of this tragic event.
Great analysis! I learn something each time I watch these breakdowns. I think the Overwatch cinematics are easy to digest because they are so character focused and you don’t need a lot of the backstory to understand what you are watching. You have done a fantastic job viewing and reacting and discussing these beloved stories. As an enjoyer of most of the Blizzard ip’s and Warhammer, keep up the fine work of creating these analysis videos!!
Thank you for the lovely comment! There will be areas that I go over again and again because story structure and film techniques are the same once you know but each cinematic, each storyteller is different. Sometimes I go more into the technique but I've found with the Overwatch shorts that I go more into the story. The reason being is this is the main thing that draws me in and they are so character focused, they are stunning. KZ
you're slowly becoming my favorite reactor (?), thank you for taking your time to watch this beautiful cinematic. I enjoyed the commentary a lot (I didn't even realize that first line, "you're leaving us", was to foreshadow the end before you said it. brilliant!) and I'm looking forward to the next cinematics you're going to give us, Overwatch or not. (on that note, "Zero Hour" is the cinematic that answers where Reinhardt had to go in this one, hopefully that is on your list as well 👀)
thank you for the content!
Thank you for such a lovely comment! That line carries so much weight with it and they tell you from the start the entire story, we just get to experience it. Powerful stuff! Zero Hour follows on from this right? I heard that's like the Avengers Endgame cinematic. So I'm best of looking at the others first.
Thank you for hanging out with me again! It means a lot. KZ
Definitely a new subscriber here! I love not only watching your reaction but then the breakdown is so fascinating at the end it makes me think of things in a new light. I've got my fingers crossed that you watch more world of Warcraft trailers I'm dying to see your reaction to those!!!
Thank you for the sub! It really means a lot. I will be returning to the WoW franchise but I've got a few videos I want to do first. I hope you still like those videos and that you can enjoy them. Thank you so much! KZ
Love your content so glad to see this channel taking off!
Thank you so much! I'm glad to have you around. KZ
This is one of my fav animations i ever saw.
You make a wonderful job.
I love your reaction videos.
Thank you so much 😀 and thank you for hanging out with me again! KZ
I'm so happy you could react to Honor and Glory! After all this years the cinematics make me emotional as well. When It came out no one knew about that lost armor in Eichenwalde, (that german castle map in Overwatch), and it was a pretty common thing to not properly take care of supports or dps players as tanks in the game.
So watching Reinhardt have that whole character arc and seeing the abandoned armor it really made the map greater than life and it made that room particular meaningful. Furthermore, the omnic that killed Balderich was the ingame counter to Reinhardt.
I'm so happy this cinematic wasn't lost to time and thank you for sharing it with us!
Thank you for hanging out with me and watching this old cinematic. I hope you enjoyed my breakdown, KZ.
I have watched this so many times and it gives me chills and I tear up every time.
Same! I had to watch it another 5 times to break it down and I got teary every time, haha. KZ
my favourite fact about this cinematic is that after it came out, Blizzard put the Overwatch medallion on the throne where Reinhardt left it on the in-game map.
I love that.
Oh yes finally!! I've been checking your channel for like a month hoping this video would drop
I hope it was worth the wait?! You were one of the chaps (not by name) I mentioned in the beginning, where is it!? haha. Thank you for coming back fella and hanging out with me. Will you be back for more of my videos or have I completed your list yet? KZ
Please do more Overwatch. I've never heard anyone break down their shorts the way you do. It's really interesting for a normal person like me, who doesn't know much about filmmaking at all, to hear a professional break down why it has such an effect on me.
The last line in the short...it hits me hard every time. The way it all starts with his friend telling him to not go back into the life of a warrior, only to have him say he has no other choice. He MUST answer...always. just gets me every time 😭
Great video man. You do more Overwatch and I'll appreciate the hell out of you 👍
@@EnriqueMaxx Thanks fella! I will return to Overwatch don't you worry about it. These stories are blowing me away and it's great knowing I've got more to come. I make these videos so you know why they hit you like they do, fun right!? Until the next time KZ
Honestly this cinematic ALWAYS gets me man, always makes me tear up, quite a few of the overwatch cinematics do.
MASTERPIECE
Cool to see the channel growing man
Thanks man! Yeah, it's getting there... It would grow more if I uploaded more but this is life. If I stopped the real work which I love then I couldn't say Filmmaker Reacts, it would be... some random guy reacts! haha. Thank you for hanging out with me again. KZ
6:54 - Balderich von Adler, a man so noble, his blood is literally blue😄
i’m loving the overwatch reactions and breakdowns. it would be super cool to see you react to the origin stories. they’re pretty short but they’re equally amazing.
Are they in the Overwatch "universe"? Could you link me an example please and I'll add it to my list. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻 KZ
@@kaizammit yeah i believe most of them were released before overwatch 2. this one: th-cam.com/video/onplsJSdp4A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6VCJVU1b7KY1fZQT is for the tank Sigma, its a fan favorite and mine as well🤩
Watched it more than 50 times probably and every time it brings tears. My main character 2017-2018
Who do you main now?
if you havnt watched the kiriko trailer id suggest that next but it too hits the heart strings. includes a fight scene where they swap camera angels heavily. id love to see you break it down
those ad reads are on point brotha. i used to main reinhardt - love the tanky melee character types. big knight with big hammer? sold
Thanks fella, you like them eh! They are utterly ridiculous tbh and I treat them like they are. I actually play Raids from time to time so I thought it was apt for you guys. The jewellery was for me, I love those bits and I'm wearing two of them now as I type. Thanks again fella for watching another one of my videos. That character sounds like someone I would play too. KZ
Please, more Overwatch cinematics!!!!!
Any more cinematics in the future? Kiriko's is a pretty fun one that I just rewatched, but I also starting tearing up by the end. What the heck Blizzard...
Man. When Overwatch still had so much potential. They had so much going for them, look how good these movies are.
What a shame.
I hate crying, always think it is a dumb waste of energy but this short along with Bastions absolutely break me
This one is one of my all times favorites! Hope you check out the rest of them! My favorites besides the ones you've seen would have to be "Alive", "Reunion", and "Zero Hour". If you want to see a really different style I would recommend the Doomfist origin story which was animated by the animator for the boondocks.
I will get to the rest of them, I really enjoy these powerful little stories and knowing I've got more to watch is exciting. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Sad piano cords always get me, i remember there is this one track (cant remember the name) in Mass Effect 3 that has that type of piano and it hits so hard alongside an amazing cutscene
That sounds powerful! I'd like to see that. Music with the visuals is killer man. Audio is 70% of the picture so music will absolutely hit harder. Thanks for watching the video, hope you like it. KZ
from what I heard (not fully sure). the reason they didn't move him (reinhardt's mentor/friend). as a crusader's armour becomes his tomb. to move him would be disrespectful. this place was his final resting place.
I've read that in the comments. Such an awesome bit of lore.
@@kaizammit yeah. I wasn’t sure if it was there. So I mentioned it again. So. Sorry about repeating what was already said.
And agreed. It’s such good lore. I could watch a whole series of it. All the different cultures and traditions this world has. It’s so interesting
If you havent already another great overwatch cinematic to watch is the Hanzo and Genji story. Was one the of the first ones and is still one of the best
Hey, I just want to say, having just discovered your content, this is what reaction content should be. It’s not just really forced and over the top reactions, it’s actually educational, as well as still having that entertainment factor. Keep it up. Also, you should do the wh40k pariah nexus trailer. :)
I like to think of it as if I'm in a classroom, and some pupils are like Kai, have you seen this? That's why I watch it all first and tbh, just be myself. Then I'll say, do you know why it worked or certain bits did?...no? Let me explain.
I hope you stick around with the channel and thank you for watching the video fella.
The crazy part for me is that the whole thing can be seen also as the Hammer and shield are an allegory of for Honor (shield) And Glory (hammer). Reinhart is all about the Glory (hammer) at the start and eventually gets what Balderich has been trying to teach him. And thus he starts using his shield (honor). It's a very subtle thing, but it works so well to explain the character.
It made my favorite quote from the character in-game even better "Don't worry my friend, I will be your shield!"
you should really react to the collection of World of Warcraft cinematics, it's insane how well they are made, and never goes back on the voice over and story telling, but it's hard to tell the full Lore with just cinematics. The original lore is a fantastic story!
Since you have done the older ones, it would be fun to see you react to the never stuff.
I'll admit, it's hell of a long run, but maybe make Part 1 to 3, so you do not have to sit in front of the cam for 4-6 hours :D
Great job with the videos! keep it up :)
I just CANNOT WAIT for you to watch Overwatch Zero hour
This is my favorite OW cinematic
Fun fact, the place that the cinematic is happening at is a map in-game and at the end of the map (last objective) there's the dead guy sitting in that chair
I love that they cross the mediums within the franchise. Stories are so much more richer when they do this. Thanks for watching, KZ
Honor and glory makes me cry every time
I feel that! KZ
Side note about the journey of the coin: if you bought the special edition or ever went to blizzcon, you probably have a plastic or metal overwatch coin, which makes it a smart prop to use in my opinion (connecting to your audience, etc.)
Absolutely! Crossing the mediums is fantastic for a brand, I love it! I want one of those coins!! KZ
A crusaders armor is their tomb, always respect it
As a Kiriko main I can’t wait for you to get to her Cinematic (although it’s the newest one)
I've heard it's good. I'm still chipping away at OW1 currently so I might have to start doing multiples in one video. 🤔✌🏻
The Bastions are the same model. They're just in Tank Mode. Which was the old Ultimate form for Bastion before the respec into Artillery mode.
Crusaders are interred in their armor.
Practicality aside, it is why they never moved him. That was were he died and that is where his grave is, that is his tombstone telling the story of the place where a crusader died.
With their giant heavy armor and shield you can see how hard it is to actually kill one. It also explains young Reinhart's cockiness.
He was an animal! I also like the way the armour shows this too. Reinhardt's armour has small claws and Balderich had long claws, a sign of growth. Loads of signs in this cinematic, it's epic! Thank you though for hanging out with me in this video. KZ
Not sure about today but that armor was in fact in the game itself. Until the vid dropped I always wondered who it was
Really good analysis as always ! It's still a pleasure to watch this cinematic in particular, it's probably the most complete Blizzard ever made for Overwatch
Now the only problem with this cinematic is the localisation of the action/characters in space, it doesn't make any sense when you pay attention and it's even worse when you know the actual map (since it's in the game), it feel like they're doing back and forth, like if they were teleported behind the enemy, then in front of them, then behind again, it's really confusing
Thank you for watching and hanging out with me again! Means a lot, it really does. I've not played it so unable to comment on that, is the map massive? It looks like it's a very large castle. KZ
All maps are about same size in the Overwatch. You see almost whole map in the cinematic. Attackers start at the bar and they have to escort a payload into the castle.
Thanks for great and informative video. I hope we will see more Overwatch reactions soon. All of them are so good.@@kaizammit
Thank you for watching my friend! I will return to Overwatch but I want to cover a few more franchises before I come back. I'm treating these like an old friend. KZ
I would hope you continue the series of overwatch cinematics. I would also personally recommend Helsreach series. Since it starts and ends in very diffrent film styles. :)
Is that Warhammer 40K? I will return to Overwatch so do not worry but I am confused as to where to go next within this series. Thank you for hanging out with me man! KZ
@kaizammit it is 40k. Its long but i think their is alot for you to explain and comment on.
I love the va for reinhardt (Darin De Paul) he also voice acts revenant from apex legends and escharum from halo infinite i recomend you do watch the apex legends assimilation launch trailer i think you would like it. and if you do decide to watch apex and continue it after that i recomend the apex legends kill code series
The soldiers Reinhart rescues are BAMF as well. A few get cut down, the one with the rocket launcher drops it to grab a wounded man who draws his side arm (pistol) to fire one handed. It happens in just a few seconds. The rocket launcher was probably the best chance at killing the enemy, but the soldier decides to throw away a better chance of survival to try and save his comrade.
You should watch Sigma's origin story and then rewatch it in reverse, it's in my opinion the greatest Overwatch cinematic ever made
Reading few comments, you can go on with Overwatch, their are lots of characters! Maybe the "Hero" cinematic, very touching one too! On my end, I'd love to see you breakdown the Baldur's Gate 3 Full intro cinematic!
I've heard that name a lot on the podcasts I listen too. It's not something I've ever seen but I hear it's beautiful. I'll add it to my list so thanks for the recommendation. KZ
Ik this has probably been suggested a lot but i would love to see your views on series arcane
I cannot let this pass: you got your Raid Shadow Legends sponsorship. Congrats! That's a rite of passage for content creators
Is it!? Thank you my dude. They reached out when I first started but dictated what they wanted from me and I said no. This time, they left me alone and that, I don't mind. Thank you for the kind words and watching my video. I hope you enjoyed my reaction and breakdown. KZ
These videos really are something else. I've seen it so many times, and it still brings a tear to my eye...
Baldric, eh? He does seem to have a cunning plan 😉
Hmm... Random Question: Where did you come up with Kai Zammit as a name? Is it perhaps a reference to Joe Dever's LoneWolf book series?
I've been taken back every time when watching these, all 3 of them have left me wanting more from the studio.
My name; you know it's my real name right or do you think it's an alias? I'm actually a SPY! haha. Kai - My Mum/Dad heard Kai on the news and my name Zammit is in the family, Mother married into it.
Thanks for hanging out with me again and if you have more questions, ask away! KZ
@@kaizammit That's a pretty cool name!
Have you seen Overwatch "Reunion"? Maybe it's just the murican in me, but I think that one's my favorite!
I've only covered Dragons, Last Bastion and this one so still early doors I believe. I guess Reunion is on my list to come. I hope you enjoy it when I eventually get to it. Thank you again for watching my video. KZ
Kai, if you enjoyed this cinematic; you should also take a look at Kiriko's cinematic. It's also superb in terms of cinematography. highly recommend it if you find the time to take a look!
It's on my list but I was going to try get through all the Overwatch cinematics first. Thank you for watching this with me.
you are doing gorgeous work! Keep Going!
Another Cinematic to review would be the "Betrayla on Kerrigan" from Starcraft 2 Wings of Liberty, its gorgeous!
Also, just continue WoW, they are all fantastic!
Blizzard in general is a Goldmine. Diablo 2´s Cinematics are incredible well made
Thanks man 🙏🏻! Couple of videos I've got in the works is my reaction and commentary on all in-game cinematics to Starcraft 2 so hopefully Betrayal on Kerrigan will be in there and all cinematics from Diablo 2. I may breakdown some from Diablo 2 but still unsure. I hope you enjoy the videos my friend. KZ
Still checking every day for a new league react🎉
It will be later rather than sooner. As much as I appreciate you checking out the channel everyday, I don't want to disappoint you. KZ
you need to react to riot cinematics
1.the path
2 Kin of the stained blade
both are amazing. have great story lines and these are part 1 and part 2 sort of. the 2nd one is top notch
Journey of coin... how poetry.
So true! KZ
To a Crusader seems their armor is both their gear and their coffin and after the counteratack in the Omnic War was considered disrespectful to move him so his body was left there, undisturbed by decades
That shot almost broke me man. Wow! KZ
funny story and 100% true... after this Overwatch short came out, a LOT of Rein players changed their play style, from being a brawler not helping his team much, to a full of protection tank... PS: that "tank" u said was a different Bastion, is him old ULTIMATE form, so u changed into that, when u had it charged and using it... he has walking mode, the minigun u saw in the Last Bastion vid, and the tank form, that is now changed into an artillery battery with 3 short
I bet they did! I want to play him now. KZ
oh and please watch Kiriko's animation too another well written story
Still waiting on Final Fantasy XIV all cinematic trailer. You've got to watch those! Best cinematic ever!
I will get to FF so stay tuned, I'm still hopping to different franchises so it could come up soon. KZ
i cried during the scene when reinhardt made partways with him.
You probably can't see it as I'm so small on the screen but my eyes are full of water. It was the fact he hadn't moved him all that time. That was another punch in the feels! I had to take a few hours away before I broke it down just to sort my eyes out haha! Thank you for hanging out with me! KZ
Blizzard has one heck of a team making their cinematic's as far back as Diablo 1...
Also I would recommend taking a look at the Assassin's Creed 3 - E3 Official Trailer [UK] and the fan edited version of it where they swapped the music for the Last of the Mohicans theme aka The Gael.
Good luck.
Cheers dude! I'll add them to the list. Will that music get me a copyright claim do you know? This is why I'm thinking about Patreon so I can do those kind of videos for you guys. Thanks for hanging out with me. KZ
honestly I have no idea on the copyright front but my suggestion would be to do a video on the actual trailer that should, knock on wood, be safe and watch the edited version on your own.
If you feel the music change was a big enough difference then merely say so and let people look it up on their own and things should be good @@kaizammit
@@widgren87 Fantastic suggestion! I'll add it to my list. Cheers man.
react to more overwatch and league stuff!! great review
I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much for hanging out with me fella. More to come, probably LoL before I get to another Overwatch cinematic. KZ
got a legendary level short film suggestion here called zygote from Oats Studios,
theres also the amazing on going aninated series from this animation channel, tales of alethrion theyre first short is called the first hero.
Amazing! I'm looking for content exactly like these for my 'React and Thoughts' videos (Orange border me thumbnails). I'm only really breaking down gaming cinematics currently. I hope that's alright and you'll still enjoy the content and hearing my thoughts on it. Thank you for hanging out with me again and sharing some short films for me to dive in to. KZ
no problem i suggest in hopes you and others find something fun and to do my part in helping these wonderful creative individuals and teams to grow theyre audience! cheers brother. to finding the buried treasures of our time... internet animation channels!@@kaizammit
Absolutely, I made this channel so I could discover amazing stories which will help me grow as a storyteller. You never stop learning! I just hope in return, I can entertain you the viewers and give back with my knowledge. Thanks man. KZ
you should watch the meme version from Juston Bibero, the editing of him it's sooooooooo much on point it look like it was the original
Please link me 🙏🏻 KZ
@@kaizammit i think i can't post link, my comment was deleted but its "Juston Bibero" on youtube the video is called "meme and glory" it almost have the same pic as the original
you need to see the zero hour cinematic, it's the overwatch 2 announcement trailer. bring tissues
Oh gosh! Not another tissue cinematic... Shouldn't I watch the other cinematics first?! I heard that one is like the Avengers Endgame type thing. KZ
You should check out the Diablo 3 "Reaper of Souls" trailer. One youll definitely enjoy, and with some great cinematography.
Epic! Before I hit Diablo 3, I'm thinking about doing all the cinematics to Diablo and Diablo 2 then looking at 3. Would you want to see me react to all of those? I don't think I'll be able to break them all down but I can certainly share my thoughts as I watch. Then breakdown the bigger ones which sounds like there may be. Thanks fella! KZ
The Crusaders look like Astartes and the people they fight with have similar armor to humans in 40K as well. I have never played 40K but I have watched Helsreach, The Last Church, and other bits of 40K media. Is there a reason for the similarity?
YES FINALLY! This film made Reinhardt my favorite character and I don't even play the game.
I want to play the game now so I can be him. I love the whole shield thing and hammer. NOICE! Thanks for coming back to the channel fella. KZ
@@kaizammit Shield and hammer is an OP combo. Kinda gives Dwarven vibes
For my brothers.... Those that didn't make it...
❤
Check out Gears of war and all the star wars old republic trailers.
So um.. i wouldn't necessarily agree this is the best OW cinematic out there or even the most sad one but aight, its what people requested. If you want other really good ones, please react to Alive, Infiltration, Last Bastion, Overwatch 1 opening cinematic and definitely OW 2 called Zero hour... there are others as well, might do them all in a chronological order and then there are some really good Origin stories, too
I've done the Last Bastion, I even show the thumbnail, did you not see it? My personal favourite so far I think is Dragons, also on the channel. I hope you like them. ✌🏻 KZ
@@kaizammit yes my bad, ive seen you react to these two. Dragons is probably my favorite OW1 cinematic by far. Alive is very nice, too, it's the storytelling really and OW has a great lore. ^^
I hope you do a reaction for Overwatch 2 trailer!!
Oh I will do but shouldn't I finish off all the Overwatch 1 cinematics first? Thanks for watching fella!
Reinhardt must always answer, as it was his fault the one they called for didn't answer.
Deep!
I hope you rect to the zero hour animation and " reunion"
I'll be reacting to all of them so certainly stick around with the channel. Thanks for watching this video. KZ
Blizzard was always great with their animated shorts. Even in the beginning like Diablo 2. I'm a sucker for this stuff, even bought the Blizzard cinematics on DVD :-) Another great one is Kiriko. Another style in parts, influenced by Japanese cinema, I think.
Than I'm going to love this! I love Japan and that culture. I'm thinking about doing a reaction video on all the cinematics to Diablo and Diablo 2. It won't be a breakdown as that would be crazy but I hope you enjoy hanging out with me and hearing my thoughts. KZ
He swore an oath and he means to keep it.
Just a Little funfact,
the name "Balderich" comes from the words: "der kühne Herrscher" which translates to "the bold ruler"
Reinhard comes from the words: "ragin(Rat)" and "harti(stark)" which translate something akin to "Resolute Advisor/Good Advisor" (or if you take it litteraly, Strong Advise)
Thank you for the information and hanging out with me! Was I saying his name correctly? KZ
@@kaizammit In the german it's naturaly pronounced a little diffrently, but the English pronounciation of it was on point!
And thank you for making these Videos, they are a treat to watch.
Thank you so much for watching them and helping me grow this channel. You're here at the start so yay! KZ
