Seeing this video of Star Wars Galaxies makes this blogger long for the days when she used to beta test in 2003 as a dancer. LaurenMisha gathered her friends almost two years ago, and instructed them in Teamspeak, in order to recreate the party scene from the 1984 classic, Footloose. Lauren would have her character act as the "camera" so that she could look around and be able to film specific things. While she has moved on to World of Warcraft, her legacy in SWG machinima lives on in the extensive works she has made there.

If you have machinima or movie suggestions from any MMO, please send them to machinima AT massively DOT com, along with any information you might have about them.

When you and your family move from big-city Chicago to a small town out west, you're in for a real case of culture shock. You try hard to fit in, but you can't quite believe you're living in a place where rock music and dancing are illegal. There is a glimmer of hope, however: a troubled but lovely blonde with an exceedingly strict father, who is responsible for keeping the town dance-free. You and your classmates want to do away with this ordinance, especially since the senior prom is around the corner. Only YOU have the courage to initiate a battle to abolish the ban and revitalize the spirit of the repressed townspeople!

Sound familiar? If you're a child of the 80's you might recognize this as the plot for the rebellious teen drama Footloose, but recently Warhammer Online announced that it will not include a /dance emote in their game. Is this the decision of EA Mythic, Games Workshop or an overly restrictive minister who oddly resembles John Lithgow? More importantly, how drastically will this affect the economy if players can't /dance for gold in town?
