    Panda-Argonath? Argo-Pandas? Pandorath?

    So, looks like the WoW 5.0 login screen was revealed. Is it me or it looks like the Argonath? It's official, Blizzard is out of ideas. Just look at the Argo-Pandas hands! Nice rip-off.

    As much as I love to throw stones at Blizzard, I have to admit that I enjoyed the soundtrack in that bottom Youtube link of the the Panda-Argonath.

    Re: Panda-Argonath? Argo-Pandas? Pandorath?

    Since when do pandas do like walruses?

    And OP - it would be Pandagonath: Panda stones.
    Re-ni-AN-nen - strayed (ppt. of renia- 'to stray')
    Aeled Reniannen, Defender of Middle-earth ~ Nendhiniel, Forge-Warden : Captain and Wardenette from [EN-RP] Laurelin
    Fluffrash, Blade of Barashish ~ Nathraen, Conqueror of Towers : Warg Puppy and Spider Tailor from the darker side thereof
    Faradwen, Swift-Arrow : Huntress from [EN-RE] Landroval


    As if in answer there came from far away another note. Horns, horns, horns. In dark Mindolluin's sides they dimly echoed. Great horns of the North wildly blowing. Rohan had come at last.

    Agreed. Jason Hayes is a great composer. We can't deny that Blizzard games have great soundtracks.

    You are right

    I think we should rewrite the lotr.wikia article...

    "The Pandagonath, also known as The Gates of Pandagonath or The Pillars of the Kung Fu-Kings, is a monument comprising two enormous pillars, carved in the likenesses of Isilduranda and Anárionanda, standing upon either side of the River Celebrant at the western approach to Lothlorien."

    Fixed.
