Holy shit! They know their movie sucks ass so they are giving out free copies off their 10 year old shit game to whoever watches the movie, just so people will see it. Kek.

>When the credits roll in the theater, a new adventure awaits at home—Blizzard Entertainment and Regal Entertainment Group today announced an epic promotion that gives moviegoers a chance to continue the journey they began in Legendary Pictures’ Warcraft® movie. In celebration of the film’s June 10 U.S. theatrical release, anyone who buys a ticket to see Warcraft at participating Regal Cinemas locations in the United States will receive a free digital copy of World of Warcraft
What for one month?
The point of the movie is to get people to play the game you retard. The money comes from the monthly subs theyre looking to gain from the advertisement.

They need money and new players, especially after Overwatch propotion campaign.

amazing
>>69993483
For what (very) little it's worth, some of the reviews I've read sound like the whole "video game movies get poor reviews" thing has become a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy.
>>69993483
gb2r faggot
>>69993483
Jesus, it's literally happening all over again.
Anything else coming out this year that can result in A SECOND FRESH REVIEW 3.0?
>>69992493
they already announced that they would be doing this deal a while ago
and it's more to revive world of warcraft than to entice people to go watch the movie, since most of the people going to watch the movie are going to be people who've played wow before
>>69992493
The desperation is palpable.

Man, I hope it does better than that.
>>69993483
>Some non-gamers and casual people/critics probably already have a mindset that wants to tear down the WoW nerds. Seriously. I'm sure some of them are proud to bash on a movie just because they know the fanbase is going to be enraged.
>>69993602
dog. Look at the relative prices. They're functionally giving away tickets with discounted copies/months of wow.
Meaning people will buy the tickets just to get months of wow at half price.
>>69993666
he's probably right you know, wowkeks are easy to upset

>dog
blizzdrones are so pathetic it's hilarious
>>69993744
can't. been here longer than you're comfortable contemplating.
>>69992493
It's misunderstood. People go in expecting lord of the rings when Warcraft is so much more. It isnt high fantasy, it IS fantasy. The storytelling, characters, places, lore...they're remarkable. Of course generic critics are going to bash it because it wasnt 3 films made by Peter Jackson simultaneously.
plebs actually base their watching decisions on reviews?
It's disconcerting how invested you guys are in seeing this fail. Like sharks swimming around waiting to strike. I'm noticing this trend across all forms of social media in regards to any particular interest people might have. I'm guessing it's the result of long term outrage culture along with the increasingly intensifying political hotbed. I don't know, but it scares the fuck out of me.
Did people actually think this was going to be good?
>one of the reviewers gives Dragonball movie 4/5 and shits on Warcraft
What the fuck is going on? How do these people have jobs?

whys his dick so high up? is she sucking a snake bit or a tumorous growth or something?

>>69993992
Its mostly joy at seeing blizzard fall apart. They've raped the fuck out everything worthwhile they've ever done and, for some reason, made more money than ever doing it.
>>69994001
he was being ironic, read between the lines pleb
>>69993992
BVS was literally the /tv/ version of TORtanic, if you know what that is. The floodgates have opened and everyone will be waiting for it to happen again for the chance to relish in that schadenfreude that drives good anons, cruel.
>>69993867
The looks extremely cheesy and full of cliches
What's the plot of the movie?
It looks pretty by the numbers from what I saw. If they made a movie about Arthas in WC3, that's be a hell of a film
>>69994141
How is it schadenfreude to want movies with nothing but marketing going for them to fail?
>>69994001
This guy is a giant sell out and a pompous windbag. Go watch what the flick on YouTube. He's either hating on great movies like Room and loving generic shit like TFA and hes always trying to portray himself as some cinema expert.
>>69993697
>Meaning people will buy the tickets just to get months of wow at half price.
except that the people going to see the movie that already own an account will have to make a new account to make use of those months
or did your monkey brain actually think that a company would give their entire existing playerbase a bunch of free months at a 15-18$ price
>>69994232
Room kinda deserves it though. Compared to the fritzl case (from which it stole everything it had to offer) its a lifeless mess.
If you can forget about fritzl, its pretty good.
>paying a company 15 bucks a month to play their shitty game after you already paid 60 bucks for it
thats xbox live tier

do they even know how to watch films properly?
>>69994310
and this pertains to the matter how?
i'm just correcting the misinformation you're spreading, either through sheer idiocy or just misinformation, that WoW's current playerbase, inactive or active, is not going to de facto receive free months at a discounted price because they'll have to make new accounts to use up those free months
>>69994190
People get carried away, we will NEVER be able to discuss movies here again because people just want to shit on them instead, moreso than even before.
>>69994582
TORtanic killed literally all real discussion of new things on /v/, and I'm sure BvS did the same for /tv/.
>>69992551
>paying for a game where u only get 1 month for free then hav to pay $30 each other month
Fuck that i never understood why people play WOW
>>69994668
Tortas with aguacate and milanesa are really good desu
>>69992493
It's almost like you're surprised that a video game studio made a movie to promote their video game, not the other way around.
>>69994467
>for profit entities buying tickets to get discounted copies/months of wow to increase their profit margins pertains to the matter of tickets being given away with discounted copies/months of wow how?
well gee, when you put it that way, idk lol
>>69994718
It's actually 15$ (though prices may differ between regions, I think) and they've implemented a system called the WoW token where if you earn enough gold, you can buy a month of game time with gold.
Stock market aficionados bought over four years of game time when the feature came out, and the system somehow works because people buy endless amounts of gold with real money for some reason.
>>69992577
>the whole movie was an expensive subscription for the game makers to get more fans to play their game

I guess your fantasy world is kinda hard to shake though, by virtue of it being yours.
>>69994416
What is wow tokens?
>>69994855
MUNF OB WOW COS $15
TEKEET COS $8
>>69994908
ohh okay
refer to
>>69994885
in that case
I worry the movie's badness could come from Metzen having a hand in writing it. He's a nice guy and all, but he cannot write or make good stories at all.
>>69992551
They're hoping they get addicted and subscribe.
It's like giving people a supply of crack for one month. Stale, ten year old crack.
>>69995367
after shitting on their face, of course.
>>69994801
he said $30 every other month you braindead wow-addicted retard
>>69996039
Sorry for not being able to understand ambiguous sentence structure, but having the prefix be "every other month" instead of "each other month" would certainly help.
>>69995033
No the movie's badness comes from the terrible blue screen cgi.
Movie should have been entierely CGI
>/tv/ still takes critic reviews seriously when they pretty much always hate anything that isn't high grade art
it's a fucking vidya flick, if you like the game you'll more than likely enjoy the movie

>make money now either way
i dont even play this game and i can see through this scheme
>>69996372
i think it's less about him wanting others to watch the movie and more just a general statement about how you're probably going to enjoy the movie if you enjoyed the games
but don't listen to me; you seem to have the reading comprehension part under control
>WoW has less than 2 million subs
>FF14 has over 4 million
>>69996591
>WoW has less than 2 million subs
source?
>>69996632
Not him but I don't think they even report it anymore as it's gotten so low so it's impossible to find out.
>>69996397
Well, me and my two friends have paid for our last 3 months entirely with wow tokens (though we quit a while ago) and already have enough gold to start again.
The way I see it:
>WoW players who put effort into the game earn enough gold to continuously play
>Whale customers fork out tons of cash to get the gold from these players
>Blizzard gets money
Everyone's happy.
You're seriously gonna say a movie is terrible based on 5 reviews?
>>69996477
But the reason i enjoyed the game(s) is because the interactivity kept my higher functions occupied and left only my basest awareness for story/narrative comprehension.
You can't do that with a movie.
>>69996372
It's like going to a Chinese buffet and complaining it isn't fine cuisine instead of just enjoying the tasty garbage
>>69997010
Except for the fact critics have to go there and stuff their faces.
>>69996591
absolutely retarded if you think ARR is that high and WoW is that low.
>>69997056
critics don't have to do anything and they'd be retarded for not taking context into account

all reviews are good in france so far
>giving a shit about "professional" critics
They're shams, don't take their word. Wait for the movie to come out and for that movie watcher reviews. That will give you the best reflection of quality. Critics are absolutely terrible at reviewing movies.

I'm stumped. Literally what did he mean by this?
>>69993736
found the dumbest person in the thread
Actually european reviews are pouring in, and they're mostly positive.
Don't worry, this movie will make its money back, definitely.
sure, us critics won't like it, but who cares about them anyway? they have an election between two crooked candidates. they should be more worried about that rather than a video game movie.
>>70002779
>us critics
>>69996397
I haven't paid for WoW for around a year now, you can passively make enough gold to buy a token every month.
Nobody really cares if people buy gold with real money, you can't buy anything worthwhile with gold anyway. I guess you can pay for carries, but everyone just thinks you're a faggot if you do that.
I'd honestly rather play the original RTS than Shit of Shit.
