I'll turn you into a sheep. <br />A sheep! Because we all are a bit like sheep, you know... <br />I am Jean-Claude Van Damme, I am a mage. And you? <br />What's your game?"<br /><br />Mages are nothing but vending machines and sheepish freaks. I was expecting some high roundhouse kicks in there -- at least he picked a Troll. Donjohn, <a href="http://www.wowinsider.com/2007/12/07/wow-moviewatch-je-suis-un-mage/">commented at WoW Insider,</a> providing some additional notes that pertain to the inside-jokes for zi'French.<br />
<ul>
    <li>Van Damme frequently uses English words in his oft-butchered French sentences </li>
    <li>The line on everyone being like sheep might tie into numerous interviews with JCVD's rhapsodic views about the world <strong></strong></li>

William Shatner and Mr. T are appearing in two <a href="http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/downloads/movies.html">new <em>World of Warcraft</em> TV commercials</a>. All <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/blizzard">Blizzard</a> needs is <a href="http://www.gothehoff.com/">the Hoff</a> and it'll have the holy trinity of cheese!<br /><br />This is without a doubt one of the most awesome things we've yet reported. <a href="http://imdb.com/name/nm0001558/">Mr. T</a> talks about his "<a href="http://www.wowinsider.com/tag/night-elf">Night Elf</a> Mohawk." <a href="http://williamshatner.com/">William Shatner</a> players a <a href="http://www.wowinsider.com/tag/shaman">Shaman </a>and wears a goofy looking robe. It's exactly as funny as you'd expect, and it will be broadcast nationally soon. Blizzard announced that <a href="http://imdb.com/name/nm0873942/">Verne Troyer</a> -- aka "Minime" -- will be recording a commercial as well.<br /><br /><em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/world-of-warcraft">World of Warcraft</a> </em>players have already been littering guild chat with "I pity the fool who specs survival on his Hunter!" and taking screenshots of their characters screaming "KHAAAAAAN!" at the sky. So it goes without saying that these commercials will probably go over quite well.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">[EDIT: We have the videos here for your viewing pleasure! Shatner is above, and Mr. T is just behind the jump.]</span><p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2007/11/20/mr-t-and-william-shatner-appear-in-wow-commercials/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Mr. T and William Shatner appear in WoW commercials [Updated]</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2007/11/20/mr-t-and-william-shatner-appear-in-wow-commercials/">Mr. T and William Shatner appear in WoW commercials [Updated]</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 20 Nov 2007 14:57:00 EST.
