they're not
The bits with Dr. Evil are funny but Austin is an insufferable character

I bet you're fun at parties.
Let me begin by saying I was an avid Warcraft 3 player back in the day but I barely touched WoW or any of the other RTS games and haven't been around anything Warcraft for a while. That said I was actually looking forward to a movie like this when it was announced, 10 fucking years ago. But as time passed and nothing was moving foward I just forgot about Warcraft completely for a long while. Fast forward to last November when the first trailer dropped. A friend of mine who plays linked it to me and even though there were some interesting things I thought the trailer was mediocre overall. But I put it in the back of my mind and followed the progression ever since while remaining skeptical. A few videos that came up recently were starting to turn things around of my perception of the movie and I was more and more excited about it. Then, on may 24th, a bunch of negative reviews start coming out and it drastically lowered my expectations and I was feeling disappointed.
Well today I finally had the opportunity to go see it... and I was literally shocked. What the flying fuck, it was actually great and super enjoyable! The visuals were INSANE! The story and cast were good, not great but good. The witty humor was cool, the battles were cool, the scenery was FANTASTIC, and it got really dark and hardcore in some places. The magic was fucking AWESOME! Overall very enjoyable as a popcorn flick. So I was like what the hell, that doesn't seem right at all that people are trashing this to that point and I hopped onto social media to see what people were saying. And what the hell, most tweets from the general public who has seen it are positive, it's like a 10:1 ratio. I dig a little deeper to try and understand what the hell is going on and how there could be such a huge divide between RT scores and what it looks like the general public is saying about it. Here's what I found:

>I was fucking retarded for basing my expectation off of 8 reviews when these movies typically get 200+ reviews and sometimes the rating can swing big time. And I realized after reading them they were incredibly biased going in with some ridiculous comparisons and nonsensical topics. Read them and objectively tell me some those are objective.
>The reviewers who have given the movie a rotten score, two of them gave Dragonball: Evolution a fresh rating among other ridiculous ratings. Dragonball: Evolution... WTF? Do these guys just try to outhipster eachother to bait clicks?
>A ton of reviews from Europeean critics that aren't on RT praised the movie.
>Some pretty major fucking movies started out with terrible reviews on opening weekend and went on to be very well received afterward. A few of which are: The Sixth Sense, Fight Club, The Shining, Gladiator, Forrest Gump, The Wizard of Oz, and guess what else? Fucking Star Wars: A New Hope!

To be CLEAR, this movie is not Star Wars or LotR. But it sure as hell wasn't as bad as that ridiculous RT score. I think everyone should take a step back and stop basing their entire view of this movie off 5 rotten reviews who by the way broke the embargo early, evidently just to get their hipster opinion out and bait people's attention. Wait for a few hundred critic ratings, then we'll talk, because, looking at it in the most objective way possible, I have a feeling it's going to change. Better yet, make up your own opinion of it. I already know that people hating on this movie don't care about what I'm saying and are happy to validate their view off as little ratings as possible, which is fine, I don't expect any different. But for those who were looking forward to it and on the fence because of these initial reviews, this was one hell of a pleasant surprise for me and I just thought I'd share this with others who may have been put off. I think many will enjoy it.

>"The mainstream Hollywood thinking still seems to be that movies and stories about straight white people are universal, and that anyone else is more niche," Aziz Ansari wrote. "It's just not true."
Why is Hollywood, and by representation America still so racist? Why are all the good roles still "whites only"?
Rick Yune needs more exposure, he's literally the perfect man:

I don't know why they're complaining India and China make more movies than the US why don't they just there to work.
If the term Asian has expanded to include Indians and everybody from the continent of Asia, then are Jews and Russians are Asian too.
This guy is popping up everywhere now. How is he so good? Will he be the actor of the generation?
Oscar Isaac is a wonderful actor and I wish him all the best.
>>70042507
no, but he'll be very good.
Not at all,he just has a great agent.Plus hes half jewish and half mexican or whatever so he can appeal to minorities without actually being one.
This was pretty good, thoughts?
>>70042330
I never much cared for it. Never really cared for tanker stuff in general really.
>Movie has based Soviets mowing down Mujahideen
>Movie expects you to side with the Muzzies.

What is some essential /tankcore/?
I've already seen Fury. Is Lebanon any good?
>COLLIDER: Would you rather sign onto a project without reading a script or without knowing who’s attached?
>THORNE: I actually ended up doing a movie called John F. Donovan and I swear to God I’ve never seen a script. I’ve never seen the script.
>COLLIDER: So what made you sign on for it?
>THORNE: The director is Xavier Dolan who is one of the most talented directors and I get to play Jessica Chastain’s sister so I was like “Please hire me! Please!”

I'm cautiously optimistic
It's getting a television show and you can't stop it.
As long as its better than Swords of Shittananana i'm fine with that.
Fingers crossed they do better than that shitty pilot they made last year or whatever.
