ELFQUEST: A FAN IMAGINING Trailer

The other day, we linked up to the teaser to this. Now here's the whole thing.

I am torn. I think they've got the look and feel down. Those ladies are exceptionally hot. And I'm having all kinds of wicked thoughts about some of the images.

Maybe I'm not torn.

Thoughts?

ETA: Yeah, I think we all agree that the biggest problems were [a] excessive eye makeup and [b] a distinct lack of male elves. I, too, would love to see Cutter and Skywise done this way. The real trick would be some of the trolls -- Picknose and Two-Edge especially.

Is anyone else disturbed by the fact that all the elves were female, and the only males we saw were human?

I enjoyed the incredible attention to detail in the costumes, but I was a little distracted by the ears. I wish they hadn't use the standard Woochie ears that every LARPer wears!

I wanted to see Skywise!

I figured we saw so many female elves because there were more women available for the roles. But some of the men who played the humans could have doubled as elves, with a change of costume and makeup.

Frankly, it ticked me off. Mainly because the elves were always shown being at one with nature. How natural is a tribe with no means of reproduction?

*snerk*

I'm sorry, but my gut reaction to your question was, "Didn't Timmain show them this was what the wolves were for?"

heheheh. Okay, point made. But it was my understanding in the story universe that only Timmain while in the shape of a wolf herself engaged in that. Changing the entirety of Elfquest into a beastiality play? Ummm... I could make a fortune selling the torches and pitchforks to the fans when they get wind of that! :)

Ha ha!! I'm sure it would entertain the ElfQuest fans who are also Furries, but not the rest of them.

Most of us furries aren't interested in that, either. :)

Well, they did seem to have Rainsong in there, holding a child. Somethin' happened on a hot summer night.
