No. Metzen is obsessed with noble savages and corruption, and utterly forgot what made the IP great to begin with. Orcs are marauding borderline retarded genocidal maniacs almost universally. That's what they do. But no, instead we get misunderstood, victimized tragic hippies.

Also Lothar is apparently a fucking child and not a 40-60 year old man. What the fuck.

That's the reason my expectations are so low. Warcraft used to be metal as fuck but WoW turned into a Saturday morning cartoon (WC3 also shifted the tone but kept it fun). Old Warcraft through the lens of modern WoW.
>>
>>332272728
I am because I am not new to movie adaptations. Every movie adaptation has its own version of the original story, never has a movie ever been correct to the original. That is why I'm going to see it, to see how close they do keep it to the original and what they leave out.
Because writing for a movie is far different than writing for a game.

It's sad, even as the game got worse, WoW at least managed to keep that atmosphere for a while. Then they ran out of plausible threats to present to the character and it all went to shit.

Though honestly, in a genre that revolves around gearing up until you're a god who can beat anything, it was probably a losing proposition to begin with.

I'm going to go visit a friend in New Jersey (from Ontario) who I met on WoW so that we can watch the movie together. I don't have any irl WoW friends and it would be weird to watch the movie with normies, I think.

You even posted my point, you do realize that the original story has dialogue that is only 15 to 30 minutes from start to finish with out the game play right? You really think that the original will be interesting to watch with what you just described?

Yep. Both stories are stock plots that have been done a million times and holding back the a invading force of evil faceless beings has always been a consistent money maker for hollywood.

The original plot is better because warcraft setting was originally much grittier and desperate take on the 'holding back the tide' plot than the typical hollywood interpretation.

This new plot looks so generic and safe that you will be able to pick the plot beats 10 minutes before they happen. The changes haven't been made to make the story more interesting or tangible, they've been made because Blizzard wants to retcon the original plot to be more in line with WC3 and WoW... and the film is going to suffer heavily for it.

The plot was fleshed out already before this movie was underway thanks to the sequels.
You haven't even seen the main villian in this one. Remember avengers when there was nearly nothing of loki in the trailers?
You are basing your in tire opinion on the trailers, especially on a movie that isn't supposed to be a stand alone movie. You are being fucking retarded to think that this movie is going to ignore the rest of the lore that was made with the sequels. You are being retarded over nothing yet.

>You are basing your in tire opinion on the trailers,
>in tire

I'm basing my opinion on the trailer, because the new trailer literally gives away everything that happens in the movie and all of it is 110% generic, right down to the orc chieftain fight in the ring of warriors.
More so, the reason that the original plot has been done by so many successful movies is because it's a robust, classic tale that people always like and allows for plenty of action.
The new story is going bore people by wasting time with completely predictable character interactions between the human and orc heroes (they literally even use the "Whatever you're going to do, do it now" line, lel).

>You haven't even seen the main villian in this one.
They're going to pick the human king + blackhand as war mongers and maybe throw in mediev/guldan as a side character or final boss. They already lay this out in the trailer, crystal clear.

>a movie that isn't supposed to be a stand alone movie.
If they were smart, they would have gone with the original plot and then brought in the thrall clone for the sequels. However, they've gone and blown that load in the first film, which isn't going to leave them anything for the sequels except repeating the same story multiple times with different end bosses.

I doubt the sequels will even get made after this under-performs anyway. Calling it now.

you are so full shit, the only reason you know the plot was because of the game it's self, and all of your success stories on plot is based on your own opinion, and you are ignoring what the war mongers will actually bring to the proformance.
If you were smart you wouldn't be so cynical on a movie that you haven't seen yet.
you have no idea how movies are made, if the movie sells tickets there will be a sequel, opening night always decides if there is a sequel or not. I know for sure that this will do well in the box office just because of the Warcraft brand.

Even before WoW happened, yes.

That actually happened in the books. Are you another one of those retards that thinks that anything involving women in media is feminist shit now?

Maybe this will finally be the movie to permanently crash the whole concept of video game movies. There is no such thing as a good video game movie, and this will be the ultimate evidence.

probably not, no.

All I know about the lore is

>Some guy did bad thing that made magic appear or linked the worlds or something
>there's a war between weird things and relatively normal things
>dragon with a billion holes in it gets metal prosthetics which proves he is actually incredibly weak if metal can pierce his scales and then he dies
>some hero kills whoever leads the horde and takes his place and tells them to go fist each other in a corner
>furries appear and do generic kung fu racist asian stereotypes
>orks are mad about something

I promise you this is what normies think of WoW, minus the over-analyzing of dragons.

Damn that autocorrect making spell words that don't exist.

If you genuinely aren't a schoolchild, then you're going to have a pretty rough life given how immature, naive and emotional you are. It's not a good thing when people assume that you are a child on the internet, senpai.
>>
>>332282014
normies think that this movie is about WoW
>>
>>332279260
It was a copy of Warhammer which has taken heavy metal to heart after the success of Warhammer 40k's, fantasy in space with hevay metal.

Though I agree it is still more 40k's thing, there are definitely metal influences in there (like the omnipresence of skulls, slaanesh,...).

The dead happened in the books, but nothing like the films. They swept over the Grey Havens, and they weren't green idiots (they were fucking shades, pretty hard to make out details of them even in daylight), and how they fought was barely seen. The Rangers of the North were something I was really looking forward to in the films. Oh well.
>>
>>332282294
You think too high about them normies.

They don't even know that WoW has lore

I also didn't know that
>>
>>332282164
I haven't read the books, and I heard from someone else it was either Merrin or Pippin, but even so the scene was just poorly done. It wasn't about her being a woman, it was about her delivering a shit line and killing a bad mother fucker in an uncompelling way.
>>
>>332281947

it's both you dipshit. Have you even been here longer than 3 years?
>>
>>332282134
Yeah the whole franchise is just one retcon after another.
>>
>>332282456
I only got that lore from vague glances at WoW threads, looking at trailers, and seeing box art.
>>
>>332282476

The way the line was delivered in the books was different. She was laughing because she knew she was going to die and all hope was lost, not 'lol I woman grrr!' like in the movie.

Notably the film changed a very important line from Aragorn to Eowyn at Edoras. In the film he states that it won't be her fate to marry off and be stuck at home. In the book, Aragorn states that as a shieldmaiden of Rohan, it is her DUTY to stay, whether or not she likes it.

they way you respond sounds like you have a hard time even going outside and talking to people being how you read into things that aren't even there. Enjoy being a walmart employee and if insulting people is your best defence for your argument then you proven that your argument never had a leg to stand on in the first place and you're bitching over nothing.

You talk like a retarded child. Seriously.
>>
>>332282476
That's how it actually happened in the books and it was done fine in the movie. It's debated whether Eowyn or Merry killed the Witch King because either the enchanted dagger Merry used killed him outright or weakened him enough for him to be killed. Seeing as how it played out in the books it's most likely weakened then killed.

>>332282404
There were a lot of things cut from the books that I was looking forward to. I still think that the movies could use more of the cut content but the first movie feels REALLY rushed despite it's length. Two Towers>ROTK>Fellowship.
>>
>>332272728
How come these movies are always shit? There's basically one passable movie of that sort, and it's Smash-It Sam.
>>
No, I have self respect.
>>
>>332282813
and there is your argument, Welp I expect that from some one who can't enjoy things. Enjoy your bitterness when the movie comes out, I'll be enjoying a movie without any problems.
>>
>>332282456
WoW has a surprisingly rich lore, up there with star wars. Whether or not it's good is a different conversation though.
>>
>>332282969
Nobody will ever take video games seriously as anything more than a juvenile form of entertainment. I think it's for the best though, we keep watchful eyes off of us for the most part.
>>
>>332283054
Like I said, you'll learn soon enough why people are saying this will suck.
Or maybe your manchild mentality allows you to like this sort of generic trash. Who knows?
Only a few more months until it bombs, anyway.
>>
>>332283173
the way you guys freak out over the lore, it's no wonder they find it juvenile.
>>
>>332283173
Break-it Bort hardly qualifies as a video game movie, more like a movie about being in a video game.
>>
I will not watch it for the simple reason that it doesn't accurately depict the orcs as murderous, psychopathic, bloodthirsty and warmongering mindless animals.

I don't care about lore at all, I just don't want the public eye on games as a whole is all.

Probably because the only games that have a storyline worth turning into a film already try to be films as is.

You couldn't make a last of us film or a bioshock film or even a The Order film because there's nowhere to go with them, nothing to interpret.
>>
>>332283318
Like I said, I don't considered this a game on the big screen, I consider it a movie. Maybe when you grow older and see more movie adaptations you'll realize why they wrote the movies the way they did. Some are hits some are misses, but being a warcraft brand this will be a hit. Despite your rants over lore and exposition.

What is the GOAT video game movie?

>>332273102
>tfw no proper R-rated Warcraft 1 adaption where orcs are bloodthirsty savages done practically with make-up instead of noble CGI hulks

>>332283748
Wreck-It Ralph is the best video game movie out there.
>>
>>332283505
I know, my point was most of the people who are upset is over the lore, and people who are normal see this as rants from manchildren, so of course they will think of this as childish.

>Orcs are marauding borderline retarded genocidal maniacs almost universally.

Actually this is very wrong. Orcs are a kind and pretty tame race that live in tribes and have a balance system between them. It isn't until they drink the corrupted blood that they become savages.
>>
>>332279452
>>
>>332282693
What no one realizes is there a will be a huge twist halfway through the film in which the characters discover they inhabit a video game. Existential questions and struggles will arise.
Basically Mogworld will happen, and Duncan will surprise everyone, I won't cry myself to sleep at night that the same man who made Moon made a shitty fucking Warcraft movie.

Go away Metzen and play Orcs & Humans again.

It's a shame rendering those pre expansion cinematics takes so long. A whole movie done in that style would have been a lot better than this garbage.

I thought it looked unbearably generic, but after seeing The Force Awakens I'm feeling much more merciful towards it.
