New News is Old News

By now it's old news, because it's been news since Thursday, but Blizzard released the opening cinematic for Wrath of the Lich King. It's really not all that impressive when you think about it in comparison to, say, the Burning Crusade intro. There aren't any really quotable lines from Arthas, and the only thing that makes you go "Oooo" is the giant dragon. Sorry, I probably should've warned you about that spoiler, but if you haven't seen this yet, that's your fault, not mine. The one thing that I can't ignore here is the fact that this is the opening cinematic for the game. What could this mean? My money's on a BlizzCon 2008 release party. I got 6 copper, who wants in on this?

Blogspot apparently hates me. I tried to give you an in-post view of the video. Looks like you'll have to click on the link.
