Movie has been something of an enigma. He seems to lose when expected to win and just as everyone loses hope, he goes into beastmode and beats everyone. He has definitely more than replaced Much. Holding up a team as the one decent player of your race is quite a task and this season he's managed to do that while playing well in the Starleagues, besting Stork in a PvP after a disappointing elimination.

That's what's so strange about Movie. He looked so great in his PvT's against Light and go.go but just suddenlt played like trash against Canata and got demolished. However, what player begins their streak of dominance immediately after starting to play televised games? We didn't see anything out of Movie until last season anyway.

Known for the incredible variance in his play, there appear to be no styles Movie isn't comfortable playing in. He's an innovative player, making strong use of a goon timing push in PvZ that took down even the likes of the tyrant.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bWBmUGVt_o&feature=player_embedded
the infamous goon timing attack


even his harass is amazing


Movie is 13-7 in his last 20 games, an impressive record for a rookie. As the standalone protoss for CJ Entus, Movie is going to be getting a lot of experience this season, as there is no one else CJ can reasonably play over him.

[image loading]


Movie is getting a lot of hype these days, criticized mostly for his "weak" PvP. But who can say that after he trounced Stork of all people in the MSL? When you see Movie at his best, you see an extremely creative and adaptive player with the mechanical strength to execute his strategies. At his worst, his play is unfocused, lacking direction and he is soon shut down by his opponent.

As dragons like BeSt and Free begin to waver, new young Protoss players like Movie, Violet, and Gosl[Flying] are improving steadily, perhaps to take their place. Movie is spearheading the group of fresh faced protoss.

[image loading]


Let's spend a night at the movies. Even if Movie doesn't live up the hype, one thing is for sure; he is an entertaining and creative player who will give us great games for seasons to come. Jin Young Hwa is a protoss to watch.

****

I don't think best is fading. His games have been pretty impressive lately, IMO. He still loses PvZ, but what else is new.

his PvT is great

but he isn't anywhere near the form he was in PvP wise during his peak.

I will admit though, I am extremely impressed with BeSt's recent PvT.

lol, did you get fired recently, or what, how come all this free time?

minor note: there's no such player as Gosi. I guess you're referring to (P)GosI[Flying], aka Flying of the GosI clan.

from your real life job, or whatever you did? You have 540 posts in the last week, and you have smaller-bigger articles coming from everywhere lately.

Fair enough. It was sort of an instinctual response from me because it seems like there are better examples of fading dragons. Jangbi, for one.

I don't have a job. I'm 17 and even though I have a diploma a lot of places won't hire me right off the bat. I'm working on getting a nursing assistants license (too ez) and I'm going back to school next fall.

BeSt is just coming out of his slump, let's not jinx him by calling him a "fading dragon"

and the last PvP i've seen from BeSt was BeSt vs Backho on colo in the last proleague finals, so idk how good he is at that mu, but his PvZ and PvT are just as good if not better than ever (slight exaggeration from his formerly godly PvT, but w/e)

No one else on CJ stands above him? Effort? Iris? Movie is good, but he hasn't proven he's at the same level as those two yet.
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

Last time when people called Horang2 the Neo Nal-rA, he started to play like shit (not exactly, but you get the point).

Good writeup as usual Doc ...
