Michael Dorn does a really great job here. This is a lot of deep lore stuff (much more so than The Legend Reborn), and he probably didn't understand a lot of it, but he delivers it all really well- not like he's simply reading a script, but like he's well-versed and genuinely giving a good voiceover.
Yes! At no point does anything jump out at you as sounding 'off'. He has a background of sci-fi/fantasy which probably helped. If you listen to the full 'AVO' on BioMedia Project there's some re-takes as well!
Thank you! The BMP has Michael Dorn's original recording, it was originally written and recorded in chronological order. I'm glad to finally sort it out!
The great cataclysm scene as it was shown on site is literally between two "2010 final battle" scenes. So it sound like Matoran Universe Makuta threw Prototype Mata Nui into Aqua Magna, then it continues as if that didn't happen.
Even if this wasn't the ending that the Bionicle story team wanted, I think they managed to wrap things up on a pretty beautiful note. I'm imagining the scene of two great spirit robots lying next to each other, one smashed and sprawled, the other lying peacefully. The toa, matoran and everyone else inside the MU starting new lives alongside the agori and glatorian. Bara Magna becoming much more hospitable to life now that it has been reformed into Spherus Magna. Mata Nui is dormant again, but this time it's to rest after sacrificing everything for his people, and maybe one day, he shall return.
It’s years since i’ve seen this, and it’s much better than I remember. Sad we never got a sequal to the legend reborn. It would have been a much better ending to this fantastic franchise.
@@TammyCalamity we never got Bionicle comes between Bionicle The Mask Of Light and Bionicle The Legend Reborn it's such a shame and it's also very sad as well
Aha, someone noticed! According to BS01, Brian Ellis misunderstood which robot Mata Nui was in at different times, and so originally draw some the images wrong. He later corrected them, but has only release hi-res versions of the incorrect versions. So I've used the hi-res (but inaccurate) versions for the zoom-out, and then switched to the accurate (but lower-res) versions later. It was the best I could do for everyone.
This is the order those flashbacks occur in the original, and that Michael Dorn originally recorded the script in. Both segments were just marked as 'long-ago', which allows it to make more sense narratively in this order, without *technically* breaking canon. The Scott McNeill portion is pulled from an interview in his garden where someone asked him to record it, I cleaned it up best I could.
@@TammyCalamity cause he said his systems crashed during an attack by makuta while he was heading back to spherus magna and he crashed on aqua magna and his gace wss covered by the island of mata nui which the matoran were guided to by brave toa after they became turaga and im like so that was during the events of the metru nui saga
