I've been a warcraft fan for decades. I've played so many hours on World of Warcraft, it's like an obsession. This movie did the series a great justice. Brilliant acting/casting/setting/action. Just.. amazing. LOVED IT!
Ignore the rottentomatoes (or as I like to say, rottenshameatoes) ratings guys. It's awesome.
I know one thing, it may be June, but the movie of the Summer is already here as far as i'm concerned!

I can't wait to watch Warcraft on June 10th, 2016!

>>70455254
goddamn it was good, right?! i'm going to see it again this afternoon. what a thrill ride! :D it was pretty brilliant. sure it has some slow parts in the movie (literally the only reason it was 9/10 not 10/10), but what a fucking masterpiece. visually stunning, great music, lovable/hatable characters. this had it all.

Don't be afraid of going, my fellow shy-gamers. I'm pretty shy myself, so i went alone aaha :p. But i had a blast. everyone in the theater did. people were cheering FOR THE HORDE and FOR THE ALLIANCE. there was cosplaying, it was such an amazing environment and the movie was even better. can't wait to see it again once i'm off work today.

Saw it yesterday. I like Warcraft and the movie was quite fun (although not great by any means, not even close to being in the same league with LOTR), but I realise it's just pure, concentrated fanservice and would look like an extremely cheesy and convoluted mess to anyone who doesn't know anything about Warcraft franchise.

Being myself the lost one when my friends discussed about Warcraft it was very good. Tried to play WoW but got bored a lot (probably because I was playing alone) and didn't get a shitload of stuff. At least now I know how it started and who is who. 8/10.

Did anyone really expect this? Like, did someone out there really think this would give LOTR a run for its money? What a useless comparison.

Are there honestly people who think that executive companies shill on this board? Do you really think you're that important that they'd pay people for your opinions?

Those guys think "4chan" is the name of a hacker. They don't even understand what this board is, and you think they're spending money on advertising here?

Reddit maybe, since it's mainstream. But here? Fuck off.

I went over to twitter after seeing the film to tweet #forthealliance to show the side I empathized with the most from the film, and to connect my cinematic experience with my prior product use from Blizzard Entertainment, because I play as an Alliance "toon" on World of Warcraft.

Say what you will about the movie.
But fucking Duncan Jones is 10 times the director that Snyder will ever be.
This is a fucking fact.

Even if you consider Warcraft a failure, it's still more competently put together than BvS.
It's the difference between a good filmmaker slumming it and a bad filmmaker thinking his action turd is a think piece.

The movie is pure shit. Absolute shit. It's sooooooo poorly done. But I liked it. Why? Because I like Warcraft and I knew about the characters. The orcs were fine, the rest was meh.

I enjoyed it (some parts), but it's not a good movie.

I was never a fan of the game but i agree with OP.

The film had its flaws.

They needed to hire someone who could actually write interesting characters, needed to cut out a lot of the human drama and screentime, needed to focus less on setting up a franchise and playing to the strengths of the core story. It was also obviously derivatve of LOTR but thats to be expected. The plot twist could be seen from a mile away. There were also a few plot holes/retarded decisions that irked at me as well.

It was actually very well directed though and the orc story was easily the most interesting and impressive part of the film by a mile. Action scenes were top notch and the story itself, while not anything special, wasnt overly complicated and lore heavy (which is an easy mistake to make when making a film based on an established franchise. The opening scene really blew me away and surprised the fuck out of me. It really painted a picture of how animalistic and tribal the orcs were. I guess that the movie had a soul to it. Thats what really made me enjoy it. Even if it was rough around the edges it had its heart in the right place.

6.5/10
would watch again.

I'm guessing you either started with warcraft 3 or are a wow baby. The movie was atrocious and was just a desperate attempt at Blizzard to get more wow subs.

Movie was a huge fucking spit on lore and old warcraft players.

I liked it as well.
Could have focused less on less characters and more on fighting though.
Medivh subplot didn't make sense.

Yep.

Post me screenshots and other shit about this shit of a movie please.

It's a good movie...if you're already a Warcraft fan and know most of the lore, places and characters, but it's pretty meh for the average viewver.
>Most of the scenes have little to no exposition (What's the Kirin Tor? What's the alliance? Who's Lothar? Answers you might know only if you played the game).
>Too many jumpcuts for fuck's sake
>Orks reached our w-Lothar you must come to Stormw-Are you a Kirin Tor mage? We must- Hello Medivh, whatcha do- Welcome to Goldshire, I'm the King

Loved the small details tho, like Garona wearing the t9 rogue set, dat civilian snucking in the portal as soon as it was closing while everyone was scared shitless, etc...

man people on this site are really that conceded and retarded at the same time, thinking companies would legitimately spend money on someone to come onto this site.

I can't wait to watch to watch Warcraft™ with my family and friends and relive all those memories from back in the early days of WoW: The Burning Crusade. I will even take my wife on June 10th 2016 who hasn't played the games before but I am sure she will love it as its a movie for everyone! #ForTheHorde LOL :D

What this anon said. If I wasn't very familiar with the series of games then I wouldn't have any idea what the fuck was going on. I bet tons of people are going to leave the theater scratching their heads.

people are just fucking stupid

what's so hard to understand? orcs attack humans from another world, but #notallorcs

rest is just fanservice.
