Warcraft - the movie (2016)

Looks like they're trying to capture the "Warcraft look", instead of going gritty and realistic. I like it, I think.

Nope, pauldrons are reasonably sized

Typical Blizzard, one movie and they have to make it pro-Orc.

Yep, it's the orcs being corrupted, Medivh opening the portal and the orcs coming in to murder Stormwind's face.

 

Does it mean we might have an actual series of movies that will finish with the Frozen Throne theme? I'd dig it, if the first one will be at least decent

I believe that's the idea, and I would love to see an Arthas movie, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

If it makes you feel any better, if they make a second one it'll end with the Orcs getting their faces murdered and put into concentration camps.

Now that, I would like to see, maybe if it is side by side with Metzen's tears at his race being brutalized. Alliance really should have managed the cost of the internment by executing the Horde down to a financially viable level :p

The preview footage from a convention, maybe Blizzcon, that leaked a while back was somewhere at the intersection of creepy and boring.

 

Because nothing says sympathetic characters like casual ritual sacrifice.

People deeply knowledgeable about Warcraft lore scare me.

People who read all the books do that to me, playing the games and the manuals give stuff pretty easily.

If that scares you, try this on for size: I've been playing WarCraft games since I was six years old.

So six years?

 

You'll have to forgive me, I'm not good at metric-imperial conversion.

 

Edit: Okay, I just watched the teaser. Felt like Hobbit outtakes.

That just makes me feel old.

Sorry Malc. tongue.png

 

I started with Orcs & Humans at release, so 21 years. Which probably explains why I can't leave WoW behind.

This is probably why Durotan is looking like the lead orc. He was against this stuff from the start.

I started with Warcraft when i was what, early teen i think, but when the WoW came out, I just refused to play it. By then I had awesome RTS series along with Starcraft and I had also the best PvP MP game ever created originating from Warcraft 3 - DotA, mother of all modern age MOBAs

I didn't get that conflict in the leaked clip. I didn't get any conflict, to be honest. Which is the boring part.

Warcraft has a lot of good lore behind it. If they don't drop the ball this could be a big franchise. Looking forward to the real trailer on friday

The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

I was only 2 when Warcraft came out but I remember playing the second one after I bought an old copy.

 

At any rate, hope Zowie pulls this off.
