  • WoW Moviewatch: Skullcrusher Mountain

    Skullcrusher Mountain is a terrifically catchy song by the always fabulous Jonathan Coulton, and someone named Mike Smith Booth, a program manager at Adobe, made this lovely WoW video to it. I can't help but feel a little sorry for the gnome, even if he did kidnap the girl in the first place. I now find myself wondering if I can convince my guild to call Blackrock Mountain "Skullcrusher Mountain" instead. One quibble, though: that looked like Eviscerate at the end, but how would she have built up combo points? Ah well. I probably shouldn't argue with a movie that actually bothered to construct a half-monkey, half-pony monster just to please us.
