Do you remember Theory of a Death Knight? In the original movie, a death knight is totally rocking out to some hardcore metal when a blood elf stops the performance and demands to know why they must always perform such morbid music. The death knight takes this feedback exactly how you'd expect a hardcore awesome death knight to take it, and eventually finds himself a job. Now, it seems like Myndflame is telling the next step in Theory's journey with Theory of a Death Knight is President of Blizzard.
This new installment is pretty short, and continues the tradition of Theory being a high intensity, high volume character with some strange ideas. It's a quick gag short, so don't try to read too much into it. I do find Theory becoming one of my favorite characters, though, so I hope he keeps popping up.

... I went back and re-watched the original. Wow, I remember that! Loved it, and can't believe it's been over a year since that was on Movie Watch.
But this... 35 seconds just isn't enough to do the original justice. The Tuskarr bit was funny, but it came and went, as did the whole vid, way too quickly.
can someone explain what the turn of phrase 'drinking the kool aid' means? im from the UK and we obviously dont use it, but i hear it getting thrown around in u.s. politics a lot.
"Drinking the Kool-Aid refers to the Jonestown Massacre; the phrase suggests that one has mindlessly adopted the dogma of a group or leader without fully understanding the ramifications or implications.[citation needed] The poison at Jonestown, however, was prepared not with Kool-Aid but a similar product, Flavor Aid."
I don't know, he just seemed to be missing that incredibly violent anger, that total screaming rage that he had in the first one (which is one of my favorite of all time).

Loved it, but it was a shame he didn't throw in his "WHAT THE ****!?" catchphrase.
nonentity Jun 8th 2010 1:28PM
Uhm....... not my thing.
But he's right about the Tuskarr! Tuskarr as a playable race would rock!

Bobby Kotick, is that you?
pablo Jun 8th 2010 3:27PM
The marching Tuskarr were cool...that's about it.
favre135 Jun 8th 2010 3:33PM
Eh, didn't find it that funny. People yelling really loudly doesn't equal comedy to me.
daveofcanadaaim Jun 8th 2010 5:34PM
Still better than Kotick.
