Yeah it was a good movie. I can understand if people didn't like it though, it expected the audience to accept and understand a LOT.

But that's the issue with the modern movie-going audience. Thanks to Disney, everyone expects there to be several entire films worth of backstory before a larger story. People want whole movies dedicated to explaining who a single character is, and if they don't get it, they bitch and moan because they're not smart enough to infer story elements from context.

If Black Panther was replaced with a character like Doctor Strange in Civil War people would've bitched and moaned about not knowing who the character is enough, but because it's Black Panther, everyone was SO ecstatic.

I currently manage a movie theater, and I can tell you from first-hand experience that people coming out of Warcraft loved it, but most people go see shit like Purge or Shallows. They then walk out of those movies disappointed and demanding refunds like jackasses.

They go see what the TV tells them they should go see, or they see things that are intentionally exploitative, and then complain when "There are no more good movies."

It was pretty decent. Far better than it was given credit. To put it quick:

>"Bad guys" end up winning
>All the big bads except one survive
>Two main characters / "good guys" die.
>Story seemed very straight forward to me
>Visuals were overdesigned and vibrant but stylistically suitable to distinguish itself as high fantasy IMO.
>Orc stuff was genuinely good
>Human stuff dragged more and had flaws but was at least campy.
>Score was great
>CGI was used often but still had a weightiness.

Cons:
>Some hamfisted world building
>Some people might want more resolution since they're used to good winning over evil
>Acting is barely meh in some parts.
>Lothar and his son's relationship is hardly built on or significant.

I thought it was worth the money I paid for it which was 7$. Although I would have hoped it was half price at 5$.

Overall I thought it better than a number of other blockbusters because at least it did some things different and at least it has a much greater capacity for story telling. Capeshit is 99% restricted to good guy wins against evil and is incapable of dying. Its boring shit.

Both of these feature different villains, a different main love interest by the way.

Not the same movie at all apart from Uncle Ben's origin.

These movies are complete different movies that continue the story.

So no there are not 6 Spiderman origin movies. I do not know what type of bait you are trying to make.

Marvel also has entirely skipped the origin story and skipped Uncle Ben.

I feel like my point kind of still stands though. I mean we needed a whole film for Thor because Disney thought the common moviegoer was so fucking stupid they couldn't grasp the concept of Norse Mythology. That's why that movie sucked, because it wasn't about Thor, it was about Thor's setting.
I bet if they made a whole movie explaining what an Orc is people would've liked it more.

Wy the company even bothered with making Warcraft PG 13 and not R I will never know... They would have known this movie would have bombed regardless, not because it's bad but because this movie is mainly aimed at fans who know the lore and can easily follow it.

So therefore why not go full on R for the fans and seriously it would have made a better box office because fans would have seen it; told others how amazingly violent it is and more would have gone to see it.

The movie has not made a profit, because its domestic take will only be 50 million its going to have to make at least 500 million world wide to break even

>>71626294

It made much more money than Batman Begins. At similar budget.

And it's the first movie in a series.

It's not a great success, but still a success.
>>
>>71627370
This is a really lame comparison

Begins came out over 10 years ago, it also made over 200 million domestically.

200 million domestic is the equivalent of 600 million foreign, and thats at a minimum.

Not to mention you cant really compare foreign box office from old movies and modern ones because the foreign market has surged since 2007

If Batman Begins came out today it would probably have easily made over 700 million world wide

>capeshit
>not more famous and popular than Warcraft

Warcraft is a nerdy franchise that wouldn't have appealed to normies any way.

Personally, Warcraft was more enjoyable than BvS, and many people can attest to that, but BvS simply gains the numbers simply by having Batman and Superman in the same movie.

Come on, you aren't that stupid to think otherwise.

>Thrall shouldnt have born so early in the movie. It should have been in the end

Apart from that, i think it was fine. The battles felt brutal, the CGI didnt mess too much with the real things (i dont remember cringy moments because of the CGI), no orc-human romance (at least they didnt kiss or anything)


But for a person who never played the gamers before, it was a disaster, it was just too much information to handle.
