SHIELD FORMATION!!!!!
realer than real life
>breasplate is flat to absorb the full force of an impact
>no leg armor
>blue spandex leggings
>NO HELMET
>>70657333
I'm really sad i was expecting a great final battle, not a short duel.
>"Shield formation"
What the fuck is that? Even into the early medieval period they'd still yell "Tetsudo" or "Tortoise"
Shield formation is like yelling out "sword formation" it means fucking nothing, at the very least he should yell out "form a line" or "form a shield wall"
Would audiences really not understand what a shield wall was meant to be?
>>70657451
Directors always freak out the actor won't be able to express enough if you can't see their face clearly.
>>70657506
lothars son death scene was pretty good though, that smug look on the orc after lel
I haven't seen the movie. How do the humans fare against the 8 foot green übermensch orcs?
>>70657333
Is that like a reference to the original RTS games that nobody remembers anymore?
>>70657692
they using BOOMsticks
>>70657730
No. If that would've been the case the guy would have yelled "K, all back to base, train Conjurers to summon Water Elementals"
Warcraft orcs are literally shit-tier orcs.
>>70657552
I don't know. I'm the commander mega lord. I invent sword formation. It's literally just throw your your swords in to a pile. I invented and named it. Doesn't make anysense, but what the fuck does key mean. Someone just decided that it's a word that means something.
>>70658070
Looks like Orcposting is back on the menu boys!
>>70658070
Those are orks, not orcs. Fucking newfag retard
>>70657333
I know it's a camrip and all, but they look like fucking plastic toys.
>>70658172
Orks = 40k
Orcs = Fantasy
Learn your Warhammer newfag.
>>70658223
Could be worse
>>70657333
Why are the props made of plastic.
>>70658171
thats an Uruk-hai not an orc
>>70658070
othose are orks, not orcs
>>70657333
>OPPA GANGNAM STYLE!!!!!

>>70658276
Is that one of the Hobbit movies?
God those looked like shit, which is a shame considering how well the LotR movies stand out.
>>70657333
Those graphics are amazing what game is this
>>70658276
wtf is that shit
>>70658387
I want a standalone Grom Hellscream movie
>>70658070
>angry green manlets
Literally the best race.
>>70658665
from the stag that the elf is riding, I guess it is from one of the horrible Hobbit movies
>>70658276
Glad I haven't watched this shit.
A battle elk, really?
is there anny nelfs in the movie
>>70657333
>enemy consists of 8ft tall brick shitfist monsters that turn everyone they hit into paste because their standard weapon is a slab of rock on a tree branch
>arm all your infantry with broadswords and shields instead of spears

>SHIELD FORMATION GUYS
I mean
Okay
is there a stream somewhere yet
dont want to torrent yet because ill get owned by my isp because i am cuck loser virgin faggot
>>70658928
Look it up on putlocker. Quality will probably not be so good though.
>>70658276
This is the 3rd Hobbit, isn't it? I only saw the first 2. What the fuck is this shit? What the fuck happened? The battle of Helms Deep was GOAT medieval battle scenes. Is Peter Jackson depressed or something?
>>70658665
Dark Souls 2 DLC
>>70658782
Those are goblins, Orcs are big guys. and Uruks are Chad orcs.
>>70659191
They were filming a more grounded, practical version but they decide it to scrap it and replace it with all CGI.
It wasn't really Peter's fault. They had no storyboards, no choreographer, no props for half the extras, barely anything.
>>70657333
>2hours
>Just half of the movie
What the fuck!
>>70658070
I love the Orks so goddamn much.
Did you know that they can breathe in space because they're too fucking stupid to know that they're not supposed to be able to?

>>70659580
>bringing 40k bullshit into WHFB
>>70659580
that don't make sense
>>70659745
Everything about 40k orks is intentionally stupid because the entire setting was a gag until edgelords took over with muh grimdark.
>>70658276
Besides the battle-elk, this is miles above Warcraft.
>>70659745
The main idea behind warhammer and wh40k is the whole of reality is malleable by an individual's willpower. So if orkz thinkz theyz breafz in spacez, deyz breafz in spacez.
>>70659847
I don't now jackshit about anything 40k related, I played DOW 2 and the aesthetics were amazing although grimdark
>>70657333
was good to see that the alliance in the movie was as inept in pvp* as they are in wow.
*except av. 10 years and still not fixed. thanks blizz
Do they polymorph anyone in the movie? Any druids transforming?
>>70660075
yes no
>>70660075
druids didn't exist before..
oh right, most people don't know there were games before wow.
>>70659640
You talking about Age of Sigmar TM?
>>70658387
>night elf bodies impaled and hanging from the trees
>skewered night elf head on the bottom left
Damn, I've seen this picture countless times but never noticed those. Brutal yo
>>70660372
They existed. Night Elves just weren't in Orcs and Humans because they hadn't been written in yet.
>>70657552
>What the fuck is that? Even into the early medieval period they'd still yell "Tetsudo" or "Tortoise"
lol moron
>>70660664
... anything that wasn't written in didn't exist. They aren't opening windows to parallel universes.
Were the swords CGI? they looked fucking weightless.
>>70657770
>dwarf opens briefcase
>Lothar: "What is this?"
>"The boomstick".
:D
>>70661011
that's literally the plot of the movie
aliens from a paralell universe (orcs) invade earth
>>70661011
>They aren't opening windows to parallel universes
They literally do
This movie is better than most capeshit. This will do phenomenally at the box office.
The area of vidyashit has begun.Cowadooty coming 2018
>>70661067
In that context "the writers" were the subject of reference.
>>70658070
warhammer orks and gobbos would utterly destroy the blizzard horde orcs. The horde would have a week, possibly a month, before the orks murdered every last faggot.
>they literally paint shit red to make it faster and it works
>>70661012
that's how swords really are, even the biggest most gigantic great swords that are 5' plus long can be easily twirled around by a normal male
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbNL_At0IVw
Is this movie actually good?? I wanna know because a die hard fan on youtube gave it a 7/10 so it cant be that bad??
Also all the behind the scenes with the character bios makes me wanna see it even more with the plot looking to be very rich.
>>70660547
Why aren't they facing off with Warhammer Fantasy orcs?
>>70661496
I think there's a rip out, why don't you go see for yourself?
>>70661496
Just got home from seeing it.
I played Warcraft 2, 3 and WoW for several years.
I really enjoyed it a lot. I think its the best that they can do to make a movie on warcraft. Even the lore changes did not bother me as I dont look at the movie being the games verbatim.
But yeah it was a blast. I can see why people who are familiar wouldnt be crazy about it though.
>>70661607
i played a ton of warcraft 3 and the only story i'm interested in seeing is the frozen throne storyline. i just wish we could all skip this part
>>70661737
You know arthas is just going to be fodder for green jesus, right? They aren't going to do his storyline.
>>70661737
Yeah I am super excited for that.
Thankfully china will make sure we get more movies...
>>70661067
>parallel
its not a parallel universe. its literally another planet.
>>70661197
>>70661011
>anything that wasn't written in didn't exist
You realize the script to this movie was written recently, not pre-Warcraft 3, right?
I mean it makes sense to exclude them since they don't emerge from hiding till the events of Warcraft 3, but that doesn't mean they don't exist.
>>70661872
Its fiction son. It doesn't exist until it's shown.
>>70659847
is this true?
>>70662082
Right, but it's an adaptation.
>>70662121
Yea, pretty much. Also that other reply.
It's just a fun, mediocre summer action movie. I don't really see how it deserves a 20% score.
>>70661607
Will you enjoy it if u never played the game? Is it too confusing?
>>70661496
It's just afunfantasy movie.
Definitely flawed, but enjoyable.
The main errors I'd say are the really fucked pacing at the beginning (because of the 40 minutes of cut footage) and some human performances are hit-and-miss. Plus there are a couple shots were the green-screen is pretty obvious.
But the orcs carry this movie so much; probably the best motion capture I've ever seen. The action scenes are pretty great looking as well.
>>70663895
Like I said above, the first 20-30 minutes are really overwhelming for those unfamiliar with the lore because of the abysmal pacing in that section. If you are interested I'd say it's worth a watch. You may like, it you may not, it's hard to predict.
>>70658387
Hellscream is the goat
ive played wc2, 3 wow for years
this very well be the worst movie i have ever seen. the performances are awful, the pacing is bonkers, jump cuts everywhere, the drama is awful, nothing feels earned, the fights are boring
this is not a lore gripe. you cant gripe about the lore when it gets so many basic tenets of storytelling and filmmaking wrong.
its awful. anyone telling you otherwise is retarded or a shill
>>70657333
they should of gotten more paladins
Is the Medeev from Warcraft the same one from Warcraft 3? Also what made him corrupt in the first place? The ambush?
>>70661224
>have a week, possibly a month
too long, it'd be over in 3 days tops
>>70664466
This is the same Medivh from Warcraft 3, he goes into a coma after the events of the first game. His corruption happened before he was born. His mother fought with the avatar of the biggest, baddest demon, Sargaeras, and somehow he managed to corrupt his mother, and then corrupt her son when he was born. Medivh has always had this corruption.
>>70661224
If there were an equal amount of Warhammer and Warcraft Orcs fighting eachother, with tech fitting both from their universes, Warcraft would win. Iron stars, Mana bombs, crazy magic that doesn't require interacting with the warp to use. If the Empire can win battles against the Orcs, Warcraft Orcs can most certainly as well.
Seriously, just have a shaman rip a fissure in the earth beneath the WHFB Orcs. Or burn them alive with hundreds of mages casting spells that DON'T call daemons to the world. Or mow them down with massive cannons, iron stars, mana bombs. Hell, get one of those giant Kor'kron robot scorpions out on the battlefield. Goblins built it once, no doubt they can do it again, since many of those designs still lay in Ragefire Chasm.
>>70664771
warhammer orcs have giant spiders at their disposal (fangs of Ghur)
and lets not forget about the wyverns, shamans (who can whipe out entire armies on their own), maw-krushas, various types of squigs and wurrzag who literally turns enemy wizards into squigs
and that's not even counting the various war machines, the warbosses, the ironjawz (who wear inch thick armor) and all the other races who fight alongside the orcs
also the empire are described as easy pickins in orc culture, the only human race that are somewhat hard for the orcs are the Bretonnians
>>70665533
Also you literally can't get rid of the fucking ork-shrooms. Even if orcs win the fight(doubt it), they won't win the war ever.
>>70658070
hentai orcs are the true patrician orcs
>>70661737
Director said he's not gonna do Arthas. He said his trilogy will be about the orcs finding their home or something. So it's probably Thrall's storyline. Gotta wait another 20 years for Arthas lad.
>>70660075
Sadly I think the polymorph scene cemented the film's status as uncinematic vidashit. Looked silly as fuck.
>>70666565
polymorph scene is great nigga
>>70663895
I watched it with chick friends of mine that had no idea about Warcraft. They had no trouble following the movie. While pacing did suffer a bit at the start from all the scene jumps, it's not as bad as people show it and certainly not bad enough to make normies miss stuff. You'd have to be an autist to not be able to follow the simple story that's happening here.
>>70658387
just want to live enough to see the shamans giving bloodlust to the best orcs warriors.
OOOOOOOOHHHHH
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
no wonder you guys hate so many movies when you watch shit quality and chinese subtitles
>>70658369
This was funny and I wish someone had replied to it.
not a bad movie. covers all the ground warcraft covers. orc love, the asthetic, and it brings teh 90s feel. all subsequent movies will be like everything from frozen throne onward: by the third movie we'll have pandas
>>70660402
nah, talking about fantasy.
My orcs and gobbos will live shiny and digital forever now.
>>70668129
>goblinglider.webm
it's a doom diver dummy
>>70666654
That is total bullshit and you know it. The pacing is the reason it becomes unwatchable for normies. The chick friends of yours prolly followed just the basic plot, I am sure that if you ask them about stuff that happened they will have trouble explaining what they saw. This is a movie for the gamers or people with basic knowledge of who the characters are.
>>70668555
I watched it with no prior knowledge of Warcraft and could follow the movie easily.
Ask me anything
>>70669293
What are you doing here?
>>70668377
I know, fool
>>70663895
it's not confusing - it just moves so fast the characters are boiled down to the simplest archetypes
if these were cutscenes from a video game it would get 4/10 for story
>>70668129
Actual game looks shit compared to this.
>>70657692
Get their shit pushed in until they use guns
>>70669293

lorefriend here;
Paladins were invented not too long after the movie ended. Orcs were attacking churches and the clergy were all like 'wtfguize'. They learned how to fight and then you got some Paladins.
>>70666513

>What the fuck happened?
Lord of the Rings trilogy prep time: over 3 years

That's what happened
>>70664771
Ok, if the orks were to crash into the Warcraft universe with no 40k tech, no super big boss like Grimgore, have no access to warp powers, and we're outnumbered 10-1, orks would still win over time.
The Warcraft orcs may kill off the orks at first, but they wouldn't realize that orks have spore reproduction from their corpses, and so the orks would eventually overwhelm them. Unless it's just an arena fight or something.
>>70659191Yes.
>>70669720
no, it looks better
>>70666565
That's the best fucking scene in the movie, fuck right off
>>70670363
orks would definitely win because they can channel the waaagh! to do some freaky shit like turn people into squigs
>>70657333
I wouldn't mind the cartoonish elements of the movie if the actors knew how to act.
Problem is that the acting was horrible and it was pretty hard to care about anyone.
Good acting + cartoonish stuff = good warcraft movie, goofy stuff was always part of warcraft, >muh grimdark fags would be forced to fuck off
Bad acting + cartoonish stuff = the movie feels like a fan movie on YouTube. Too bad it's what happened.
>>70670363
Also every time an Ork survives a battle, they are going to get bigger.
Many people don't realize Orks and grow to the size of a fucking tank. Remember an Ork went toe to toe with the Emperor.
>>70670184
Arthas is LITERALLY Anakin, shut the fuck up
>>70671590
>Remember an Ork went toe to toe with the Emperor.
worms are small though.
Anyone have the scene of Blackhand waiting to duel Lothar?
Where he's just standing there? He looked real as fuck, I actually said damn. Sometimes the CGI in this movie is glorious.

Nah man, paladins existed in the first war. Second war for sure
>>70657451
That's what it's like in the game.
>>70671679
Because they have taste and discernment instead of being a brain dead consumer.
>>70669882
The red ones actually do go faster because the orcs ad a psychic race of mushrooms that use the power of the warp to make the red ones faster. The other explanation (they just paint he fast ones red hurr) is some IG propaganda-tier you would have to be a FUCKING retard to believe.
>>70658070
This tbqh, Ghazghkull Thraka could out the entire Horde without breaking sweat
>>70672924
Sure a guy with 40th millennium technology and a space ship could kill the stick orcs. Nobody is going to disagree with that EDGE
>>70672963
Even 40k orks are not exactly technology advanced. They still use big axes, can't shoot guns very well and most don't have good armour.
Admittedly mega armoured warboss would wreck shit up but the majority of troops are not too dissimilar in fighting style
>>70657619
It was fucking awful. If you watch your son get impaled right infront of you, you'd fly into a fit of uncontrollable rage and devastation, not just blankly stare at him

WHAAAARHGHWARRAWR
>>70678952
What the fuck is the soldier/knight on the right doing? Spazzing? Dancing?
Honestly, I narrowly enjoyed the film more than the winter soldier
That's not saying much
Pacing was atrocious
Beginning is barely coherent
Acting was terrible throughout. I quite liked Logar(?) and literally no one else. Even the shit mage was an unlikeable, poorly acted cunt
The love story made no sense. There was no chemistry, no scenes of them growing attached. One scene she's a prisoner and then suddenly she's being accused of being in loev with him
And then she used the deathof his sonas the perfect opportunity to make her move
The orcs were barely differentiated. Figuring ot any orc's identity who wasn't the mage orc or the main orc was impossible. They have this emotional focus on that orc after he kills whatshisface and then half a film later we're expected to recognise him from every other identical-looking orc.
CGI was surprisingly impressive
Decent sense of scale
Music was a blatant lord of the rings rip-off
Eh
There are worse blockbusters but this was far from 'good'

I really don't get it; some scenes with only CGI like those orc guys (No I don't know their names) talking up on the ridge / in the camp look really good, even in stills - and then you have scenes like your webm where even a smoke effect transition looks like some pretty mediocre After Effects work. The CGI's bipolar as fuck
>>70657692
the humans one shot orc's with their puny broadswords.
and people usually stand around like brain-less idiots in the middle of heated combat around them, delivering banal lines with no enthusiasm for the moovy whatsoever.
i can only wonder if they make these moovy's because its an excuse for the director, producers, and actors to do a bunch of crazy drugs, fuck each other silly, dress up in silly costumes, and commit baby sacrifice off set with a studio's money.
