This is hilarious. Some of the references from WoW that have references to movies etc from the real life

Some of my favorites:
Xanadu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanadu_%28film%29) â€" At the Stormwind bank, the three banker NPCs are named Olivia Burnside, Newton Burnside, and John Burnside. Putting their names together yields the name of singer/actress Olivia Newton-John. The aforementioned Olivia Burnside touts the security of the bank by stating, "No one's ever stolen anything out of here. Not in the whole history of... the whole history!" Olivia Newton-John (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivia_Newton-John)'s character Kira makes an almost identical comment to Sonny when he tells her he's going to take her out of Mount Olympus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Olympus).
Conan the Barbarian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conan_the_Barbarian) â€" In Badlands there is a cave with the corpse of the warrior king sitting on a throne and propping up a sword that Conan retrieves. Also, Saru Steelfury, the Artisian Blacksmith in Orgrimmar, says (if you are qualified for Expert Blacksmithing and not Artisian) "No one, no one in the world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts ... this you can trust, Steel," which is a quote from the movie.
Commando (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commando_%28film%29) â€" During the second boss encounter in the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, Lt. General Andorov makes the same threat to Rajaxx that Arnold Schwartzenegger's character Matrix makes to Sully: "Remember when I said I'd kill you last? I lied."
i actually know the most of em , but man that Matrix thingy with the guards in IF, if you ask them for alchemy trainer they sometimes say " I wish I took the blue potion"
Classic :roflmao:
QuoteO RLY? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_RLY%3F) — After the saying became popular among players, one of newly added Goblin Auctioneers in Booty Bay was named "O'Reely". There is also a white owl that flies around a hut near Steamwheedle Port in Tanaris named "O'Reilly". Furthermore, there has been added an Undead auctioneer by the name of "Yarly" in the (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_RLY%3F)Undercity (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undercity) Auction House.
