My friend and i were laughing about the zombie dance and how redicilious it looks. As i was thinking about it, is the zombie dance, a part from thriller (yes the one with michael jackson)?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rT90keJ51bY fast forward to about 4:50 and i think you will see what i am talking about.

 

 

 

so what do you think of the resemblence?

Thriller... Thriller.

thats a good song ;)

Thriller is an ok.

lol, it does look like it.

Lol... I have my ways.

Yes. They probably copied that dance and put it into RuneScape. Do you think Michael Jackson can actually sue JAGeX for using one of his signature dances in game???

I forgot what I was going to say.

YES, they can. That would be really wierd for the London Times and other newspapers/ magazines to make a story about it.

Maybe Michael Jackson will sue Jagex to give everybody 100M.

Yea. That would be weird.

ok so im not crazy, it really does look like thriller.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edited.

OK...

:? :? :? :?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

stop doing this

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:? :? :? :?

Lol looks exactly like it.

I really have to watch that video. they should make sound effects to that dance. like "HU" HU" "Chimona!" "HE HE!"

JAGeX does copy stuff from other things.

Can you imagine how ridiculous it would be for them to make a game where every single item was completely original - and therefore unfamiliar to anyone who played it? Is it going to make for a better gaming experience if you need to work out to take a bucket and milk a cow... or if you somehow need to figure out that you need to take a gronk and squark a flooglebat?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Games need to retain some connection with the player or they simply won't be played. Yes the idea of goblins and ghosts and dragons that you can run around killing is hardly original... does it make Jagex "copycats"? No.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And It's not like the Thriller film clip was entirely "original" either, being itself an homage to the classic zombie flicks of the 50s and 60s.

Runescape has to steal some ideas. Since it has real life places and items.

Yes yes, the Zombie Dance does resemble the dance from Thriller. However, there is no room for discussion here so I'll throw the padlock on this.
