So, Blizzard announced the next World of Warcraft expansion… the Mists of Pandaria. I can only assume that there are some huuuuuuuge Jack Black fans on the staff. I mean, I know Dreamworks doesn’t own the concept of a kung-fu fighting panda… if you’re going for an anthropomorphised fighting character with a chinese bent… it’s kinda obvious… though I might have gone with more of a dragon motif myself… but… whatever…
It’s just that… come on… Kung Fu Panda is frickin’ classic at this point… Wait… let me check to see if the release date is April 1…
…
No… doesn’t seem to be… I sure would’ve thought it was a joke though…
Oh well… I don’t even play the game… so I’ll just consider it a good excuse to make another movie poster and get on with my life… I’m sure @onyxsparrow will let me know if it is riddled with JB jokes…
:::GRIN::: Great minds think alike. Leafing through GI I saw the headline item that started with “Blizzard announces…”, Which of course caught my attention. Then I saw the WoW statement and went…hmmm…well, its Blizzard so it must be worth looking at…Then I saw the name of the expansion pack and went, um, WTF? No joke, first thought was kung fu panda. Sad.
The weird thing is that the WOW folk I’ve been talking to about it seem really, really excited… go figure…
