Bambi Seeks Revenge in Wrath of the Lich King

I think many an innocent childhood ended about the same time Bambi’s mother was shot in the classic Disney film. Well now it looks like the tables have turned, and Bambi…er, “Bambina” may get a chance for revenge in the upcoming Wrath of the Lich King. WoW has always been known for it’s humorous pop culture references, and it looks like the new expansion may bring even more to the table; including this homage to a certain orphaned deer. But instead of going off and crying when her mother is killed, Bambina will strike back at the hunter. If “Mother of Bambina” is killed, then Bambina transforms into “Vengeful Bambina,” and apparently goes all Steven Seagal on you. No word yet on what sort of stats or loot this new NPC may possess, but rumors are already swirling that it may be a pretty powerful foe. Now if they can just include a battle where I can fight the giant-sized Ursula from The Little Mermaid, then they’ll have covered all my childhood scars marked by Disney movies.

I’m more worried about the skunk spraying me
The skunk? Maybe. If MMOs have taught me anything it’s “Do not mess with rabbits”.

This makes me remember that aweful moment in GW:EN with that rabbit and oh God…The horror!
The thing about the Bambi movie, is that back when it was made, along with Snow White, Fantasia and all other Disney movies from the late 30’s and through the 40’s …. they were made for adults. Children did not start being courted until the late 50’s early 60’s and it hit its stride in the 70’s when countless children were indeed scarred for life like Jonathan over Bambi getting his mother blown to bits.
I can still hear the teenage pimple faced tard sitting behind me at the movie theater laughing over me, a 5 year old, crying during this scene. First off, why was a teenager and his buddies watching Bambie instead of Bo Derrek in Tarzan the Ape Man and secondly, I hope he got a wedgie when the school bully inevitably found out he went to see it.
…… God I need to take an anger management class….
