When did 27 missions in 8 hours become acceptable? RoC took much longer to play through.

I don't care about mission count. I care about mission duration. And when the first half of WoL's missions can be completed in less than 20 minutes (half in 10), I feel like I got ripped off. Kapisch?
EDIT:
After a few more minutes of thinking about it, I guess I can accept 8 hours for normal. Thinking back, the "traditional" approach to RTS missions has been to build a base that will support a large enough army to destroy the enemy's base... repeated 20-some times. Gets a little tedious, as I recall. So. Less base building, more objective-grabbing, more moving through the story. Oh, and more cut-scenes and cinematics.
I guess I can accept that.

30 missions is pretty much the normal length for Blizzard's games...

Meh, aside from RPGs I don't know many single-player games that take more than three days...
