Having low expectation just means I can enjoy watching these well-armored dolls move around and talk like I’m playing in a huge, interactive Barbie Dreamhouse.

theres just so much with this cinematic
the fact that he just shoves the arbichunk into the hole in his chest
the way that thrall, jaina and bolvar are just standing there
how squat thrall is when hes standing there
sylvanas becoming concerned when the jailer changed into his lich king armour after fighting alongside kel’thuzad
one single arrow will stop the death god
zovaal staring at her for five minutes
the fact that after she shoots an arrow at him shes shocked that anduin put his sword to her neck
“Here little buddy, you can come with me. Sylvia, you stay and talk with the people that hate you.”
her eyes are blue now, which means she good again, but also shes still a gray skinned undead
cinematic masterpiece

“I will never serve,” Sylvanas says after spending years serving the one who by proxy caused her own death and the genocide of her people and for some reason delivered the souls of thousands of other people and the genocide of another race all in service of his plan that she just now doesn’t like because he took Anduins free will away despite trying to do the same thing to Jaina’s brother just last expansion.

RP Council: Sylvanas Windrunner, you stand accused on the counts of the following that include but are not limited to: Use of Blight, breaking an armistice, burning Teldrassil, betrayal of all life on Azeroth, corruption of Anduin Wrynn, shattering of reality, and attempted subjugation of divine beings (see: Val’kyr). What is your defense?
Sylvanas: I half-heartedly shot an arrow at God. Didn’t say anything super cool, though.
RP Council: Well alright, then. A slap on the wrist for lack of coolness and then a full pardon.

No lie, my first reaction was “He didn’t just make her alive again, did he?”
Because I could 100% see that happening.

Yeah I don’t even know what the blue shard of plot point was supposed to do there like…
You zapped her? With your infinite cosmic power you gave her the equivalent of an animus taser and went “Okay anduin, ur my new best fren. Sylvanas is uninvited to my birthday. let’s go”?
But no, really, if anyone has any idea what the dink was supposed to happen, or did happen with that blue crystal taser laser, please tell me.

“For your betrayal, you will not be joining Anduin and I for our celebratory ice cream.”

I’m assuming that’s supposed to represent her soul, or a part of it.
Regardless, Sylvanas Kerrigan has been freed from the machinations of the Overmind Jailer.

I can practically hear the furious scribbling of the writers taking notes.
Though in all reality I’m putting money down on them saying, "See, the Sylvanas players have known since Vanilla WoW? Since WC3’s expansion pack, really. That Sylvanas is now dead. Her soul is whole, so now she’s a completely different person. This is why she doesn’t even need a redemption, see? The Banshee Queen died at Zovaal’s hand. Now the Ranger-General who sacrificed herself for her people is back.
“Also, we’re going to turn her Alliance since good guys are Alliance, and we’ll probably finally do that High Elf Allied Race everyone wanted with her leading it. It’s only fair since the Horde got Calia.”
No, this is going to end with an Illidan parallel, complete with having to deliver her farewell note to her sisters.

also.
sylvia is still using her bow in that scene.
after nipples knocks her out your raids hunter goes “Don’t mind if I do!” and just scoops it up off the ground and walks away.
i like to imagine its during the dead silence while everyone processes what happened.

Apparently there’s a bugged cutscene involving a chad lad in the raid and I’m losing my ever-loving marbles with laughter.
So uh… MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD PROCEED WITH CAUTION

I wish they didn’t cut the cinematic before Jaina, Bolvar and Thrall reached Sylvanas and started tickling her.
