It will heighten it to new levels. I predict an 80 rotten tomatoes score, but only because old critics won't understand the kino that is the fantasy genre. The only reason LOTR got a pass is because it was based on an old book.

Mark my words this film will shake the very fabric of the film industry. Whitewashing won't be an issue anymore. ghost in the shell will star a 400 lb cgi orc instead of scarjo.

It's going to crash and burn.

Mark my words this will be one of the biggest flops of the year with a score not higher than 50

You're insane if you think this movie's getting anywhere near 50

No, this movie will be everything we wanted it to be.

What I'm worried about is that this movie's failure will prevent him from securing financing for Mute.

Duncan Jones seems excited about this so I will give it a shot.

It will be a good fantasy film, a terrible warcraft film, and will have enough effects and psedo-philosophy that hollywood and normies will eat it up.

In other words, it will be praised by most people. Heavily criticized by fans of the series and people who look to every film expecting genius writing and say anything that isnt is auto-shit.

Also red headed Medivh is bullshit. And his turning evil around mid-way/ at the end will be heralded as masterful writing.

Assuming he does. They are retconning a lot of stuff so far.

Biggest change they've made is Orgrim being a Frostwolf. Jones said that the changes from the novel/game lore are not that big.

They should be yes. But there's a bit of a scale to this. On /tv/ the bar is set very high and anything at all not meeting it is seen as shit.

Judging an action movie to much on poor story is kinda stupid. It should certainly lose some points for that no doubt, but people arent exactly going to Die Hard looking for masterful writing. They're going to see an ass kicking. Likewise, you dont go to a movie like "The Naked Gun" looking for grade A story telling, or watch "The Truman Show" and judge it based on how action packed it is.


Now if Warcraft has shitty action, shitty writing, and just generally shitty production, then yes, it'll be a bad movie similar to Batman vs Superman which also did nothing wrong. But I'm going to go to warcraft expecting a basic, hands off story with some good action bits thrown in.

This shit aint a drama, its an action adventure.

Good job falling for the Jewery. You are all actively contributing to the death of the video game industry, especially MMOs.

Fuck you all.

I don't give a shit about WoW. This is a Warcraft film and I played those games a long ass time ago.I don't give a shit about Nostalgius either. You're so butthurt at Blizzard it's pathetic.

Flying Dalaran sounds so much better and makes much for sense for a magical city. Imagine in 3 if they get to make a movie, it being assaulted by Frostwyrms and Gargoyles and the city falling from the sky after Archimonde destroys it. Sure, it is not loyal to the source material but it will make a great scene.
I do wonder though how the Lothar-Garona shit will be like. Might not even be that big of a deal, just tricking normies that there will be romance involved or something like that.
