WoW Moviewatch: I'm a Hunter

I'm a Hunter was created by Fruity Loops, Frostheim, and Mike Hallenbeck. The video was also made by Frostheim. When Frostheim dropped me a note about the video, he definitely seemed to think the overwhelming demand for a Hunter theme goes as far back as Big Blue Dress by Cranius.
Whether or not I'm a Hunter stands up to being compared to that mage-themed masterpiece is up to each viewer. In my opinion, though, the song is still pretty catchy and amusing. The video does a great job of illustrating the facets of hunter life, as well as getting in some chuckles along the way. There's a lot of little loving touches that clearly shows the creators' love of the class, and I think it's suitable homage to the gun and bow toting crowd.
Thanks to Frostheim for the heads up, and congratulations on a fun song.

Hunters, the true rock stars of Azeroth.

Not until male Forsaken can be hunters. They are the only ones that REALLY know how to rock out ... well, until we get those new dances from the WotLK expansion.

I love it! Big Blue Dress has it's place, it's Cranius after all and that man is a god, but FINALLY! A hunter theme! *sings* me an my big red pet!

I like the litany of armors and aspects and, later bosses. I wish this had been rock and roll instead of techno, though. Techno isn't macho enough.

I don't think hunter-ing is deserving of a rock anthem. You stand at max range and shoot things while your pet does the more dangerous melee. And most of the time your pet isn't something interesting, it's just some mutt that was wandering around the forest, dumb enough or hungry enough to obey you for food which you no longer feed it due to the mend pet glyph.
Actually, now that I think about it, hunters may not be macho enough for techno. We'll leave that to the casters and pallies. Rock goes to the warriors, ferals and enh shammies (guitar solo + windfury montage = awesome). Death knights are left with emo and all subsidiary genres.
Hunters get the song "Me and you and a dog named Boo" by Lobo. You can enjoy your new anthem at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fgGNZYR5QM

Yes, guys in dresses attacking from max range are SO much more macho.
And rock shouldn't be reserved for anyone who spends their downtime licking their own crotches and sniffing the butts of other ferals, waddling around in thick metal plating or playing with little colored action figures.
Men with guns who tame wild beasts = rock
Qot Dec 15th 2009 4:13PM
Hunters fake a heart attack anytime something looks at them menacingly.
They're definitely the bottom of the macho totem pole.

@Qot
I think Ted Nugent would disagree. And anyone that doesn't know who Ted Nugent is doesn't deserve to say what is and isn't rock.

I'm a hunter and I approve of this anthem.
Valtor Dec 15th 2009 1:15PM
Excuse me while I go take my 73 Hunter Bank alt out of retirement... this might be the most epic class anthem I've ever heard

More of a self indulgent video of Frostheim with bad music. Where Big Blue Dress was a video ALL mages could identify with. It was quite a bit more original also.
Ringo Flinthammer Dec 15th 2009 1:33PM
I'm not sure how Big Blue Dress was a video all mages could identify with. It was one guy PvPing. Are all mages bald humans in old school PvP gear?

I liked it, but with the boss role call it almost sounded like a parody of the old Pokemon role call thing. >.> lol
