100% unlicensed Chinese Blizzard theme park Godzilla-stomps copyright, is in "general decay" (StarC
If your mind works anything like mine, when you hear the words "Chinese World of Warcraft theme park", you probably imagine a large, cartoonishly-styled farmyard set-up, in which visitors are given a brightly-coloured plastic spade, gold-sack and souvenir hat, and sent out into the fields. And then not allowed to go home. Ever.
The truth though, is rather more benevolent. Well it is if you don't happen to be the owner of any Blizzard IP. Because while it isn't actually officially licensed by anyone at the House o' WoW, ye gods, does this place (which we first mentioned the construction of a while back) flagrantly carpet bomb the very concept of copyright law like there's no tomorrow. There's a Warcraft bit. There's a Starcraft bit. They use Universal and Disney iconography on the promotional videos. They have a picture of Altair on the website. They've even nicked their logo from Universal's Islands of Adventure.
Containing a thinly veiled "Terrain of Magic" and "Universe of Starship", this park could not be more Chinese if it was oppressing your human rights right at this very moment. Click on for pics, video, and the first full review.
