Assasin's Creed Liniage

The first in a "series of short films" inspired by Assassin's Creed II has been released by publisher Ubisoft, providing a fourteen minute glimpse into the life of Giovanni Auditore da Firenze--the father of Assassin's Creed II protagonist Ezio Auditore da Firenze.
The videos were crafted with the help of Ubisoft subsidiary Hybride, a visual effects house known for its work on Avatar, 300 and Sin City among other films.

Wow. I was expecting another crappy Halo live action short. But this one didn't actually suck.

made by a french canadian(quebec) director. Pretty proud of my province !

I expected this to be awful, but was impressed. Not sure what the point of this is though, some sort of live action version of AC2's intro movie?

Heh, not bad. The main guy looks like Hank Azaria.

Soooo.. Is this some how tied to Assasins Creed II? How do they correlate?

If you read the OP...

It explains that that's the father of the protagonist in Assassin's Creed 2.
