No, it was absolute garbage. Shitty pacing, shitty dialogue, shitty visuals. And they left out all the good parts of the WC1 story and made it more convoluted. Should have been a simple, straightforward adaption of the game. Preferably R-rated with heavy focus on battle scenes. All the battles in the movie was awful. Just five people in plastic armor swinging at CGI

desu I really enjoyed it. I always thought Warcraft was a poormans Warhammer, I still do but I enjoyed it. I liked the soundtrack and how the Orks pretty much won. The character of the king was pretty good. They need better direction for the human characters though. They felt pretty wooden acting wise. I'm probably going to see the next one.
Also is this based before the first game? I haven't played Warcraft before.

Flashes of Duncan Jones' inherent brilliance are in Warcraft, but find themselves ultimately drowned out by clunky writing, hamfisted characterisation and an obsession with making scenes as short as possible to cram in as many references to Band locations from Blizzard's virtual universe as possible.

Worst of all, the heart and soul Jones shows in his other work and his passion for gaming appears to be completely absent. If he can't pull it off, maybe you truly can't make a good video game movie.

Not really. You could start the movie in the middle of the invasion. They sent the horde through the portal in waves originally. You could just have the main characters of the orcs, Durotan and Doomhammer, join the fray in one of the later waves. Then you proceed to have all the important events happen, such as the killing of Medivh, Doomhammer backstabbing Blackhand and the destruction of Stormwind. Easily done in one movie.

I thought they mishandled Gul'dan, personally. He's supposed to be a manipulator in the shadows, not some pompous retard, yelling about how people should obey him and engaging in fistfights. Blackhand was his puppet warchief, and his murder at the hands of Doomhammer was how he lost his control of the Horde

Love it or hate it.

Visual experience is great all around.

First act suffers from clumsy character introductions and bad editing.

Second act is better. Think Highlander, in spirit and visually.

Third act is great. The ending is great, characters' deaths have meaning and true emotion.

Quips: there were some, but not too many, IMHO.

Like fantasy, have time to spend - go see it.

See that Demon that he transformed into before death? That's Sargeras, the actual Big Bad of Warcraft universe. He possessed Medivh at chidlbirth and used him as a puppet to open portals to Azeroth that the demons would later be able to use.

This is why Medivh does not remember originally opening the Dark Portal. He was possessed at that time.

This wasn't really explained, because it's probably left as a reveal for the later stories, that will actually have to deal with the Burning Legion and Medivh's role in preventing them.

But that's literally how the first game starts. All the backstory you need is that orcs invaded through a portal and a war began. None of that confusing bullshit where characters are teleporting between locations and investigating fel magic and shit to figure out who's invading.

apart from the shitty acting, casting, score, pacing, visuals and action, i don't understand why they even chose this part of the story to make into kino.
they should've started with the arthas/lich king storyline because it's a classic theme in literature/film and people eat it up
after the trilogy of arthas movies they could've started to build the universe with what happened in the beginning etc.

after this shitshow i doubt they can tip their greasy jewhands into many pockets

Id rather they get their footing with the Orcs Vs Humans and set up the world of Azeroth before attempting WC3s storyline.
Gotta remember you have Arthas story AND Thralls story AND the invasion of the burning legion AND Illidans story in WC3 and they all kinda of intertwine so it be difficult to just do Arthas.
You'd easily need a trilogy for it.

I played Wrath of The Lich King for a month. Beyond that my knowledge of WoW is nonexistent. I really liked it, it had some flaws but it felt like a big, rich world. The acting isn't top notch but nothing to cringe about (well perhaps the orc chick sometimes but eh)

The bad guy was an actual evil motherfucker who didn't give a single shit, in contrary to all these capeshit villains on screen. Yeah honestly I'm glad it made big bucks in China because i would go watch the next for sure.

The only thing that bugged me was when they pick up Go'el from the river and all of my friends were really enthousiastic. I didn't know that was Thrall.

The movie was a bit of a mess. It had some great action scenes and the visuals were great (with some exceptions). I just wish it was all strung together by a coherent story and compelling characters. They just didn't develop that enough. I guess 40 minutes of footage was cut but I'm not sure how much that could fix things. I will say this, it made for some great trailers.

She never romanced Khadgar in the lore.
>>
>>70719308
I hope they leave Arthas out of the initial trilogy of Duncan Jones and then do two movies, exculisvely with Arthas, one for RoC and one for TFT.
>>
>>70719856
i romanced ur mum last nite though hahaha
>>
>>70719804
Considering they killed off Blackhand already there's no Warcraft 2 storyline as it was may as well just skip to WC3 you knob.
>>
How will the sequel be now that Blackhand is dead and Stormwind is still intact? I don't see movie Orgrim raiding Stormwind.
>>
>>70719863
That's partially what they are doing.
Duncan wants to do a trilogy following the orcs upto the founding of Orgrimmar. Some other director will probably do the Arthas movie.
>>
>>70719757
So were just skipping Arthas purging strat?
>>
>>70719833
If you're 15 sure
>>
>>70719945
That's part of Arthas becoming the Lich King.
Don't see them spending more than 10 min on scenes for the actual purge and events leading up to it.
>>
>>70719919
Blackhand had pretty much nothing to do with WC2.
>>
>>70719919
That's still better than STARTING at WC3. It would be such a clusterfuck I can't even fathom it.
>>
>>70719925

So basically, we're never getting an Arthas movie.

Probably the first sequence of the next movie will be Orgrim taking over the Horde and heading for Stormwind.

>tfw this movie made me wanna raid in Legion so I can kill Gul'dan
>>
What was the point of Garona killing Llane? It didn't do shit for peace I don't get it
>>
>>70719833
gul'dan in general was the best part of the movie

I don't care what people cry about not going with the lore, gul'dan was bad as fuck

Also his cape design made me cream my pants
>>
>>70720167

But Orgrim and Durotan were pretty much the only fleshed out characters. It showed that Orgrim was at least sympathetic to Durotan's cause. Don't forget that Orgrim is actually a Frostwolf in this movie. I guess they'll just kill a son of his or something.
>>
>>70720227
So she could survive, she was considered a traitor.
>>
>>70720257
He still respects the way of the Orcs and he will try to claim those lands of Orcs but without Gul'dan. I wouldn't be surprised if he kills Gul'dan himself in the next movie.
>>
>>70719922
Gul'dan will probably march the Horde onto Stormwind in the beginning of the movie. Stormwind falls, humans retreat. Later on in the movie Orgrim will probably make Gul'dan answer to him. (Or just kill him)
>>

It seems the ironic squad has moved from defending batman 5 superman to this piece of shit. How do you justify your behavior, idiots? Get enough replies yet?
>>
>>70720227

Garona would survive. Apparently the Alliance really liked Garona after 5 minutes of talking so there's that. She would also be considered a hero in the eyes of her people, as opposed to the other orc who would gain more influence with his people. Garona gaining more influence would serve the Alliance's purposes for a potential treaty some time in the future. They were pretty much all doomed in that battle.

The idea of it all was pretty sound but the emotional impact was nihil due to poor pacing and poorly developed characters.

The golem was foreshadowing that Medivh summoned the orcs or at least allied with them, since it was orc shaped before anyone knew what the orcs were.
>>
>>70718648
The first one is awful and doesn't hold up.
The second one is dated but it's playable, it's worth playing for the lore.
The third one has all the commodities of modern RTS so you shouldn't have any problem unless cartoony graphics aren't you thing.
>>
>>70717332
Fun movie, I enjoyed the actions scenes and teh general visuals.

The cheesy relationship stuff seemed really out of place though, for these savage Orcs.

The main guy gets over his sons brutal murder pretty easily.

There wasn't enough about the other races. I wanted to see some Lore due to the fact I have never played Warcraft.

It was fairly easy to understand the story even without playing Warcraft though. The critics saying it was confusing must be dumb as bricks.

17 ratings vs 124

The only people that watched Sharknado are ones that WANTED to see it

Warcraft has more Fresh reviews than Sharknado has total

You shills are pathetic and reaching at this point.

Thank god this trash is going to flop domestically, hopefully once Overwatch turns to shit Blizzard will finally go back to making good games
>>
>>70720135
Yes, it would make for a more believable half-orc.
>>
>>70717332

Let's face it, critics these days are awful. They don't talk about how good a movie is, it's all politically motivated these days. They all have agendas.

None of them really wanted to give a good score to videogame movie because they're pretentious hacks who are afraid they won't get taken seriously. That said, I still think the movie is a 5/10 at best.
>>

Best new lore=thrall is born dead and guldan brings him to life

You type like a fag and your shit's all retarded.

Best - Gul'dan isn't the legion's little bitch boy, but a leader in his own right.

Neutral - Durotan killed in mak'gora instead of assassinated

Worst - Stormwind doesn't fall

All of these are shit changes except maybe Gul'dan bringing Thrall back to life. Worst one of all though is Lothar killing Blackhand in random mak'gora out of fucking nowhere instead of Doomhammer backstabbing him and taking over the Horde

It was garbage from a pacing, editing, and (human) characterization standpoint

But it still managed to be fun

I'm a complete layman when it comes to technical film expertise, but i got the same feeling watching Warcraft as a teacher gets reading bad papers full of good ideas. You still have to mark the grammar and spelling errors in red ink

Saw it without knowing anything about Warcraft at all. Like, at all. I knew the words "Alliance," and "Horde," and that they fight each other. That's it.

This was without a doubt one of the worst films I've ever seen. A completely unengaging experience that left me alone, confused, and ulitmately, uncaring about anyone there (except Duratan, dude was awesome) or what happened in that world. It's honestly pushed me away quite a bit. If it's aesthetic and plot are anything to go by, the world's uninteresting as shit, and I'm glad I never really god into it.

I hated how they would show these big images of the cities and places, but the sets were just small portions and never really advanced anywhere.

Went from outside of Ironforge to the inside any only seeing the Great Forge. Stormwind city to the keep. Goldshire to the inside of a garrison.
Not even Dreanor looked that fleshed out. A lot of these great historical places in the game just got one set and a big cgi overshot.

I wanted to see dwarves all over Ironforge, the citizens walking around Stormwind. Even Dalaran didn't get fleshed out and it's a city of wizards.

If you didn't like this movie, you should purge your entire family and then kill yourself so your retard genes won't plague humanity any longer. You're probably the type of retard who liked Deadpool.

I did. That's one thing the movie did extremely well. Seeing Durotan looking like a corpse and then actually dying got to me.

Just finished watching it. As a movie this was pretty fucking bad. The pacing was all over the place, the whole character of Medivh would be a clusterfuck if you didn't know the lore, and some of the choices they made regarding motivations were retarded.

When he needed a translator at first, I was like wait a fucking second... 2 scenes ago he was speaking to Garona and we could understand it. Then I realized what they were doing when you start to hear Durotan speak English and hear Garona translating in the background. That was done so well. Fuck, I loved this movie and I can't wait to see it again, especially the director's cut.

I'm glad they didn't go into the Legion yet.

>>70717332
I didn't like the abrupt end, because of the plan for sequels, but it was enjoyable. I've only ever played the original Warcraft games on pc when I was a kid, and not often. Did not like the final Blackhand fight, that was such a waste. And the wizards were corny as hell, but I feel Ben Foster was the best choice they could make to have it be as tolerable as possible.

What this film SHOULD have been:

Just follow the Orcs, they are the only characters (good AND bad) who have motivation.

Fuck the source material (really only grabbed my interest for first 5 minutes, then I just assume everything that was a stale choice was pandering)

The movie looked like an episode of Once when there were human beings on screen, white the look 'worked' when you were with the CGI characters.
>>
>>70722275
>>70721469

yep, was the only character that was done right
>>
>>70717332
It has abysmal pacing that takes everything else down with it. No feeling of the world which is inexcusable considering the source material. And CGI when it interacted with humans was bad. Which is strange, considering that orc and other creatures were decent.
>>
>>70721646

The one guy in the movie you actually give a shit about. But that scene sealed the deal of making Gul'dan one of the best villains of all time.
