Songs of War

One day, right after I watched the Halo 2 documentary on YouTube, I scrolled down from that video. I came across one video over 2 hours long with incredibly high ratings and sith over 10 million views. The name: Songs of War. It was a Minecraft movie, so I thought it would be a stupid movie with a shallow plot and unbelievable characters. Boy, was I wrong. I wasn't exactly supposed to be on YouTube, so it took a few days for me to watch the whole movie, but it had not one, but three intermingled stories, all of which I found extremely interesting, all set in the fantastical world of Ardonia, named after the race the Ardoni; an incredibly powerful race that could wield magical objects called songs. The animation is amazing, everything from the lip sync to the movement to even the fighting is perfect. It was one of the best movies I have ever seen of any genre.

The Ardoni are divided into five clans, though one is banished for their abuse of power. However, Senn (named after the clan his foster father is in), for reasons unknown, is clanless. One day, an Ardoni hero named Thalleus recruits him on an adventure. He agrees immediately. This adventure actually goes on much longer than it was supposed to when Thalleus is killed in a battle against several Voltaris clansmen, the renegade clan.

The second story is about a dragon egg. This story, I feel, is largely copied from the Inheritance Cycle, another outstanding story I recommend you to read. Two thieves, a human named Jalkar and a being of an undescribed race called Grim, steal a dragon egg from its storage room. Unfortunately, Grim bumps into Jalkar as they make their escape. The egg teleports away, and finds a young human hunter, Abbigail, and her dog, Sam. Grim and Jalkar track down the egg and Abbigail finds herself in a hunt to get the egg back.

The third story centers around a human called Lucan, who is guilty of many small offenses is sent to labour in the basalt mines, an area where no one wants to work due to the number of undead creatures in there. On his first day, necromancers attack the miners and his guard is killed. Lucan is the only survivor and reports this to a small military fort not far away. He is then ordered to find the location of the necromancer base. In doing so, he meets his partner throughout the rest of the movie, a female Felinae called Niika. 

The movie was incredible, down to the very last detail. It inspires such feelings in you, from anger to joy to grief on several occasions. Although I feel the voice actors could have been better, the rest of the variables in the movie were outstanding. Due to the three stories in this movie, the movie ended with not one, but three cliffhangers. I remember spending several nights awake thinking of when the next movie would come out, until a few days ago, when I learned that Black Plasma Studios, the group that made the movie, had canceled the movie. Their reasons? A lack of funding. I do not have a YouTube account, nor am I allowed to, but I know I would gladly part with twenty, or maybe even 50 dollars just to see the rest of this story. The ending has haunted me and reading the script just isn't the same. I watched some other of their films, and they are all pretty good ranging from serious ones to comedies, but only two movies, Animation Life and Worlds Apart even compare slightly, and those just aren't the same as Black Plasma Studios didn't have enough support and/or funds to add voices to them. I highly encourage you to watch this movie, and if you feel like it, encourage them or even donate to them so they could produce a new movie. 

So sad...

those seem like a good movie, mine giving me the link?

My faveroite movie is city of ember

CITY OF F**KING EMBER?!? ARE YOU CRAZY?

Sorry, but I watched that movie and it really wasn't the best I've seen. The giant mole looks pretty darn fake if you look close, and I don't like how it focused on the boy rather than the girl, unlike what happened in the book.

But just search up "Songs of War", and it will appear, trust me.
