I thought it looked good overall. Everything about the dwarf was shit though.
>>
>>67848515
I've seen the trailer for this in front of literally every big budget flick in the last few month. Packed theater every time. One fedora in the back usually screams orgasmically, and by the end of it, most everyone else groans. The biggest response was when someone yelled, "GAAAY!", and was answered by laughs and cheers.
>>
>>67849305
Yeah, like the average audience had a clue about Cameron's work. Most people saw this because 'hey, check this 3D thing out'.
>>
>>67849395

The CGI was really off putting.

I can easily get engrossed if they were "real", like the Gondorians and orcs in LotR, but when it's basically constant pure CGI it's jarring and takes me out. I notice how bad it is.


Still going to see it and I hope they improve on everything.

There is no such thing. It will be a successful franchise if they try to do their own thing.
If they go for the new LotR thing, they are fucked.
>>
>>67849532

Yeah agreed. That's why I said basically.
When you go from real human and real orc girl to CGI orc (and dwarves/humans) it looks so out of place. At least up close.
>>
>>67849447
Remember: All CGI you see used in the trailer is from at least 3-4 months before the trailer is released.
Not that it's guaranteed to be all that much better in the final product. Just keep in mind that trailers are works in progress and you're not even seeing up to day progress.

Warcraft's lore turned to complete and utter shit after WC2. It used to be a gritty, dumbed down version of Warhammer, where the noble humans fought the savage orcs in a war of genocide, but after WC2 is basically turned into a politically correct shitfest where diversity and the power of friendship conquer all.
Suddenly, you had a large cast of female characters, and young liberal women and revolutionary orcs fighting against corrupt old men stuck in their ways. The orcs were changed from savage, murderous beasts into noble tribesmen who had been oppressed by whitey, and the human race became slavers, nazis and easily corruptible bastards.
And then it just kept getting worse and worse, culminating with the introduction of the Disney pandas.

You can compare the initial trailers to more recent ones, someone on /tv/ did it a few weeks ago, and you can see clear improvements from then to now.

It at least gives me hope that they're paying attention and constantly refining, since that's going to be the hardest part of the movie to sell. But hey, Avatar did it, so why not?

>>
>>67853846

It really feels like you're blending WoW's lore into Warcraft III's. Even if not, you're deliberately looking at it with a pretty /po./-tier lens.

The humans did become pretty bad, thinking especially of the gladiator pits and outright enslavement of Orcs. Why is it somehow "bad lore" for one side in a war to eventually become worse than they were before?

You also miss the point of the Orcs grouping with the humans; it's literally not a political message, it's because there's a far greater threat coming and EVERYONE has to come together to fight it (including the Night Elves).

Also we're going to see plenty of savage and murderous Orcs in this movie and the movies to come; the fact that Durotan, Thrall, and Doomhammer aren't of the exact same temperament as Gul'dan, Blackhand, and Grom isn't "bad lore," it's just regular character diversity.

>It really feels like you're blending WoW's lore into Warcraft III's.
No, it actually started with that shitty cancelled adventure game. There was a trailer for it that came with WC2, and basically showed Thrall as a slave. For fuck's sake, his name literally means slave, and the plot involved him saving and rallying other enslaved orcs.
The theme in WC3 was also about a bunch of young, diverse liberals fighting against the conservative old men, who were stuck in their ways and fighting a pointless war. You don't see the clear parallels here?

>Why is it somehow "bad lore" for one side in a war to eventually become worse than they were before?
Because it follows a very recognizable pattern, by creating villains out of certain character traits and ideologies, and creating heroes out of another set of character traits and ideologies. Even if you ignore the political connotations, it's just incredibly superficial and deals with black and white morality.

> it's because there's a far greater threat coming and EVERYONE has to come together to fight it
That is a political message. "We must put our petty differences aside and make this a better world!"
It's also a common clichès in children's cartoons and anime. Regardless of what you think about, it's poor, childish writing.

Yeah.... Warcraft went a bit strange with the whole sex thing. Warhammer remained amusing until like 5th edition then threw it out the window cause 40k was insanely more popular.

Sex has only ever been mentioned in 40k, was dropped, then has been recently brought back. Age of Skubmar has brought it back though.

But Warcraft was made by Warhammer fans with fetishes and people were OCDONUTSTEEL tier faggots

Nothing will ever be the next Lord of the Rings. There will never BE a next Lord of the Rings. LOTR was the last great film epic of the pre-PC era. Never again will you get an all white cast of British and American actors, never again will you see men be men and women be strong without violence. Never again will you see two men on screen in a bond of platonic friendship without being forced homosexuals.
Face it, anons. The Age of Men has passed. It is now the time of the faggot.

>Doomhammer lost because he got betrayed by Gul'dan

He cucked himself by spending troops after him when he was sieging Dalaran and the Capital City. The Stormreaver Clan was among the smallest of the Horde clans. Gul'dan didn't cost him the war, he did by going full retard.

Invading Lordorean = Invasion of Russia
Battle of Blackrock Spire = Battle of Waterloo

Stormreavers were small. Twilight Hammer was not. Not to mention Stormreavers were still one of those specialty clans which is exactly someone you'd want to deal with mages.

Furthermore, this was Gul'dan we are talking about. Who knows what he could've done had he not been stopped. Also, he betrayed Doomhammer and a warchief can't let that slide.

I never knew how that happened. Warhammer never had retarded designs like that and Warcraft was based on it.

Still, Judgement Armor is still one of my favourite armours of all time.

They had access to ancient alien technology. Gul'dan being a visionary thought that if there was 1% chance of them using it against the orcs they should take it as an absolute certainty.

It's the start of a trilogy. It's WC1. Orcs arrive and Humans are like "lol let's kill them, fucking savages" and Orcs are like "dindu nuffin, we will defend ourselves" and then Gul'dan is like "lol demons" and then demons and then "we has to unite cuz we die alone if dont" and they all team up.

Then you find out about demons and how Orcs got corrupted and how they're evil cuz corruption and shit. And so on.

So, it's basically going to be the revised WC1-WC3 lore. As in, not the original WC1, 2 and 3 lore. But the WoW retroactively changed WC1, 2 3.

The Warcraft games were pretty ultra violence and unsettllingly brutal before WoW, I hope that they don't soften up the tone for kiddies. If there were any justice in the world it would be R rated, but we all know it's going to be for middle schoolers.

Warcraft 2 was less cartoony than Warcraft 3.

Comparing this to LotR is the dumbest fucking thing ever. LotR is it's own thing and Warcraft is it's own thing. All they share is certain fantasy elements, nothing else. The world is different, the characters are different, the story is very different.
>>
>>67857646
They've only made one fucking clan sympathetic, the Froswolf clan who didn't drink demons blood. All the other orcs are still bloodlusted as fuck, why don't people get this. They even show it in the fucking trailer with easy to follow color codes for dummies but people have such short attention spans they don't even notice. Green = bad, brown = good. 90% of orcs are green. Let's stop ignoring this fact.
>>
>>67856609
This was done on purpose to preserve the PG-13 rating. Human deaths with red blood would pump up the rating but the death of a fantasy race with green blood is fine.
>>
>>67856694
They can't provide tangible proof because they're not even supposed to be talking about it in public. A lot of them provided pretty thorough and explanations that checks out.

That, and its by the guy who did Moon. Aka David Bowie's boy.
>>
>>67858824
Which is kinda the whole problem. orcs should be green by default. Second, just because Frostwolves didn't drink demonblood shouldn't make them humie lovers. Afterall, Doomhammer rekt Blackhand and Gul'dan and wasn't controlled by demons. He still tried to raze Lordaeron to the ground. Same with Ner'zhul, who figured that trying to conquer Azeroth was retarded. Still had no problem killing pale dogs.

You obviously don't know the lore very well with some of those statements. Orcs are not initially green, they are brown. They turn green from drinking demons blood and at a slower pace from exposure to fel magic.

Also, many of the events you're talking about will still take place in the movie, I don't know what exactly you're arguing here. And just because the Frostwolves would rather not invade a planet, massacre all it's habitants and basically do the demons biddings doesn't mean they're humie lovers. It just means they have a fucking brain and the ability to be rational and would rather find a way to resolve things without so much bloodshed. Their main motivations is their families. It's a much more interesting struggle than generic monster vs humans story.
