Same guy that directed The Moon (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twuScTcDP_Q) directed the WoW movie... He is also david bowies son heh.

He is also an Adventure Gamer and has tried to pitch a few games, so he knows the ganera.

Could be good, who knows.. will be better than Dragon Heart I am sure.

Excuse me??

It looks like Eragon went CGI.

I was going to say how did they spend LOTR money on the budget and end up with worse CGI /saturation/texturing.


The Orc storylines are the only reason I will watch this, those characters have serious potential. Arthas and whatever human goons were talking sound wholely uninspiring bordering on terrible acting. Atrocious delivery of a few lines that made me cringe.

LOTR didn't have campy acting and dogshit CGI. Try again WoW fanboys.

I also think that trailer looks way better than the Hobbit. It is the exact thought that entered my mind after having watched the trailer. The Hobbit movies are terrible

Well I will do further examination, since you seconded the motion.

My gut/off the cuff reaction was the CGI lacks the realism of LOTR. Maybe that was the look they were going for, because its a video game adaptation. Looking better doesn't mean better CGI per se. I realized I should have qualified that.

Anyway the Orcs/Tauren kick ass and thats all that really matters, LOTR didn't have Orc main characters.

Very interested in what they have put together after a decade of delays on production of this movie.

I feel like the CGI is appropriate for a "wow" movie. It honestly looks better than hyper-realistic effects which can be over the top. The action looks much smoother paced, and I do like the design of the orcs. Even if they are unrealistic. Etc... :)

Can agree with this.

Looking forward to see a few nods to the WoW community in the movie. Easter eggs and what not.

Never was into WoW, but this movie looks pretty sweet

If only EQ could've done something like this with the Firiona Vie and Iksar capture story

SOE could never have pulled a movie off. They fumbled and bumbled trying to manage and develop the success of EQ itself. They also abused their customers and community with an iron fist, whereas Blizzard fostered and developed their community with great management and community relations. A little good-will goes a long way. Night and Day difference.

Blizzard, they are not.

Trailer looked pretty good. Looks like a nice night at Alamo Drafthouse when this comes out. Not sure if there was any mention, hints of Medivh in the trailer, but only watched it a couple of times.

Anyone able to explain the likely plot we'll see in the film?

Not sure what storyline they're going for and I was never completely up to snuff on the WoW lore.

Will definitely be seeing this movie either way.

My theory is that it's Orgrim Doomhammer and Durotan trying to find a place for the Horde in Azeroth. Different ways to do it from both of them, and the Humans/Alliance figuring out how to deal with the orcs.

seems like its going to be copy/paste story from the first couple Warcraft games. which does make me think that if the movie does well we'll eventually see a warcraft 3 and frozen throne stuff.. my giblets are tingling

Ill go see it (my son is really excited), but I'm not gonna lie..... this movie will draw some really weird, unemployed nerds, out of their moms basements (probably worse than the star wars nerds)...... and that makes me a little nervous to be surrounded by them. Hopefully they can at least shut up for the duration of the film, but I doubt it.

Hope we get to see the Nativity scene with Thrall born in a manger and the three wise orcs who come bearing frankincense and myrrh. Then they float him down the river so Metzen can do a line of coke off his blow up orc and masturbate to his fully realized Green Jesus Moses.

glad its not just me thinking thrallmoses is incredibly retarded. expecting this movie to be crucified(get it?) on that theme.

Does that mean it looks like shit? I thought so too, but I think they were going for the in-game look to appeal to the cartoon kids like Frozen/Toy Story.

Sadly it doesnt matter if we like it, as long as the current fan base likes it. I think the sun is setting on WoW so its a curious time to do it, 2006-2007 would have been a bigger draw.

i didn't see any hot night elfs 10/10 disappointed. J/k I think the trailer showed promise that this movie will be a great adaptation. All of bilzzards games have always looked a little "cartoony" so it just be weird if they went all crazy with LoTR type graphics.

Its been in development hell, lack of venture capitalist investors, story writers, directors, etc.

Not sure how the funding ended up happening either.

muh thinly veiled racial allegory about big dark skinned straw hut people with dicks rumored to be larger than the light skinned small (but very adept with technology gunpowder & magic) brick and library civilization people they oppose. but deep down they are both good inside because we are all created equal, and they learn to coexist and integrate. also the dark ones are inexplicably able to fight back unlike IRL
