WoWFlix is a new weekly column featuring videos from around the web related to World of Warcraft. If you find something you'd like to be featured, leave a comment or send a tweet to @Heartbourne.
The cast and creators behind The Guild, including the widely popular Felicia Day of Dr. Horrible fame, have released a new, poppy song and accompanying music video entitled "Do You Want to Date My Avatar?". While The Guild isn't specifically WoW-related, the innuendos will be familiar to any WoW fanatic.
Felicia Day did an amazing job with the lyrics, and the costumes are fantastic. Its one of the few times that I look at cosplayers and am actually impressed. Even the people who are supposed to be intentionally silly and awkward come off so well. The whole cast of The Guild crew show up in the video: Bladezz gives the camera some love, Clara sings some backup vocals, and Vork and Zaboo spit some fresh rhymes. The song is addicting and will stay in my geeky playlist.
If you haven't checked out The Guild, be sure to go to their website and check out their Youtube channel.
You can grab the song from Amazon, the video from iTunes, or both of them on Xbox Live/Zune Marketplace.
Lyrics:
Hang with me in my MMO
So many places we can go
You’ll never see my actual face
Our love, our love will be in a virtual space
I’m craving to emote with you
So many animations I can do
Be anything you want me to be
Come on, come on, share a potion with me
CHORUS:
Do you wanna date my Avatar
She’s a star
And she’s hotter than reality by far
Wanna date my Avatar?
You can type commands
I’ve got slots for what I hold in my hands
Don’t care what’s in your character bank
How ‘bout, How ‘bout a little tank and spank
Grab your mouse and stroke the keys
In cyberspace there’s no disease
Pick a time, send a tell to me
Just pay, just pay a small subscription fee
CHORUS
Single white human,
Looking for group
My stats so high
Don’t be out of the loop
Got an uber-leet staff
That you can equip
Close your mouths ladies
This is pure nerd-nip
I’m a pixel-based fantasy
A man who is stoic
I hack and slash
Who the heck’s more heroic?
Check me out:
Cloth armor
Fits me like a glove
Just twitta a time
And I’m ready for love
Hang with me in my MMO
So many places we can go
I’m better than a real world quest
You’ll touch, my plus 5 to dexterity vest
What role do you wanna play
I’m just a click away night or day
And if you think I’m not the one
Log off, Log off and we’ll be done

lol at that roasted pig
good stuff. gatta love it
when frist I saw this I thougth yust What the hell?
now that was one of the kewlest and funniest vids ive seen in a long time
Hahaha I love The Guild.
MARK MY WORDS! In a week, there will be 3 dozen poorly done videos on YouTube using this song and WoW footage.
Gah, why'd he have to be a warlock >.>
Tinkerballa got some moves! =O
Forget about her avatar I'd pay a supscription fee to date Felicia Day.
Felicia... so beautiful.... so hot.
I sure want to touch Felicia's +5 to dexterity vest =P
I love the guild, and a great first pick.
Two suggestions for the next film. Though they may be a bit long. Never Stay Tuned 4 (I also expect many people will have seen this anyway though).
Also a machinima of the story of Arthas' journey for revenge after the events of the culling of Stratholme. I found it via a review on myndflame.com, but the actual video is at www.warcraftmovies.com/movieview.php?id=121731. It is called Culling of Stratholme: The Retaliation and is a hefty 23 minutes long, but definitely worth a watch. It uses sound clips from warcraft 3 (I think) but the machinima is all original.
Anyway, I suggest everyone checks out Never stay tuned if you haven't, and try giving Culling of Stratholme: The Retaliation a try.
ahhh this son is going to be stuck in my head all day now
wow those guys are good
man i hate it how they end their sagments
awesome.
felicia day rocks.
i have watched rouhly half of teh second season and i stil lcant figure out waht class is zaboo or why a mage and a hunter would want the same piece of gear
OMG that' was great!! Nuff said.
Tales of the past 3 is probably one of the best wow machinimas i have ever see its very long clocking in at around 90min but it is totally worth the time. Its losly based on the lore sorunding Arths and the ashbringer. you can find it at http://warcraftmovies.com/movieview.php?id=53953
is thier going to be a third season? what game are they playing it cant be wow
That was so adorable!
what are you talking about warlocks are awesome
lol i wasjsut thinking when this would hit PL. low and behold . it is here xD
@ cocopuff
In 1st season, Codex states that he is a warlock.
As for the loot, im pretty sure the writiers and most likely actors dont play wow
@Druidguyy the writers do play wow and so does quite a few of the actors, including Falicia Day. But do to copyright issues they can't make the show specific to WoW so they have little bits that are a little off from the game. Much the same way Big Bang Theory has to mix things when they are talking about video games.
I wish they hadn't PG13'ed that. "Do You Want to F*ck My Avatar" would be so much funnier.
