The Caramelldansen, although well known, its exceedingly simple and plain. WoW dances need to consist of more then a 3-step motion over and over.
Well, I don't know if you've seen the Undead female dance. But last I checked, it's literally the same hand movement over and over again. I don't even think its a 3-move-motion. XD
Honestly, as much as I don't care for caramelldansen, I can't see ANYTHING else picked for the females personally. They're just too... cute. They're just adorable, so I really think that's going to go right up that alley.
But I would like to see some other dance if possible. I don't know what, but yeah I think it's going to be a particularly 'cute' dance the females will get.
Whoever linked that 'Sam B' dance, I could totally see that being the Pandaren male dance, and I totally hope they use that, lol

I think I'd be a bit grumpy if they have the females caramelldamsen... Like, they're SO cute but they also have this badassness about them. I think it'd just kill it.
Also I'd find it a bit cliché, but I also think it would be putting the model to poor use. These models are capable of so much, I'd love to see something more unique.
I think a fan dance would work. It has the martial arts feel to it, and how neat would it be if they actually pulled out fans? I'd love it.

It would but no other race gets that and seeing as the last new race dances were pop culture references I'd say these will be too.

I feel that this might be used for the female dance.

It's way more complex than caramelldansen, and way more appealing imo. And personally I feel more people know it than even Caramelldansen...It was even used as Ezreal's dance on LoL (which I won't state my opinion on btw =_=) and I feel that they are going to go for some sort of fan pop dance, since they are asian based and anime is pretty popular in today's global culture. You gotta admit, even the female pandas' eyes look a bit anime-ish. But who knows? Only time will tell...

Hmm, I don't feel like an anime dance would be appropriate considering the Pandaren are loosely based off Chinese culture rather than Japanese. I know it's really more of a blend of Asian themes, but remembering the fiasco over the original Pandaren looking like samurai...I just don't see them turning to a Japanese anime for a dance source.

I like the idea of something Chinese based myself.

That would be amazing. I know Blizzard now have the skill to make some nifty animations like that, I'm sure it could be done.

On one hand:
Darn, was kinda hoping I'd be wrong.
On the other hand:
I couldn't see it being any other dance for them.
FINAL JUDGEMENT?
Still rollin' a panda. I'm sorry, but they're still just so. Freaking. Cool. XD

Irregardless of the dance, im still more then happy to be a panda, but i will have to refrain from joining in on any spontaneous dance moments.. i feel like i'd just ruin everything if i tried to dance with the rest of the group..

Caramelldansen isn't THAT simple...well, I thought it was, but then saw moves I didn't recognize with the female Pandaren doing it and checked around.

That dance.. looks incredibly silly. Apparently flailing your arms around is a dance? >.< Meh, I still will roll a female pandaren, when i figure out what class I want.

Here is the OMFGcata video, with music for our convenience. I like the male dance I must admit, but the female....#long sigh# It's stupid. It's a freaking internet meme! I mean, at least shuffle is a dance style! All the other dances are real dances!

Wrong. There are just as many meme, and just plain silly, dances in the others...and almost to a one they're pop culture references when their source is known at all. Saturday Night Fever, Macarena, Can't Touch This anyone?

I LOVE the male dance! It seriously had me laughing out loud! It also got me stuck with the song it is mimicking. xD "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO.
Female dance, I am sorry, but I absolutely HATE that "dance". :/ I never have liked it and never will.
