Does it have any hope?
What kind of marketing magic do they need to do to make it succesful?
Also they keep saying that the budget is 100 mil which just cannot be true, what's your guess on the real budget?
300 million all in on this movie
>>62740145
the trailer looked very good, some of the soldiers are a little too CGI-like but they still look exactly like from the game so that makes it okay
>>62740145
Remember those Pokemon movies a long time ago that gave away cards with tickets?
Blizzard will do the same thing and give out codes for exclusive mounts or some shit with tickets, instant sales.
>>62740145
>doubting duncan zowie jones
>>62740145
I can believe that budget as they're using no-name fanboys as actors.
>implying it's not going to be movie of the decade
>>62740178
Holy shit this would work
>>62740145
Holy crap, the EE of Battle of the Five Armies is looking impressive. Is this why it got an R rating?
>>62740145
Blizz is billion dollar. It will be as shit as Harry Potter 1 then we'll get 2 and 3.

>>62740178
Yeah, I think they'll do something similar. They like to cross promote their different games within one another, so they'll prolly do the same with the movie.
>>62740220
For you
>>62740145
Looks good, but they need to show magic in the trailer. Also Medivh was missing from that trailer. Show more elves and dwarves which are in the movie and more Gul'Dan. Polish some scenes up. It's gonna do well because the Chinese and Koreans are gona eat it up and probably well in the US too since there's no more fantasy films left. Then there's the Blizzard fanbase, people have been playing Blizzard games for the past 20 years.
Trailer has 17 million views already and only been out a week
>>62740145
what exactly is wrong in the picture?
>>62740145
I keep wondering that too how the fuck is it only 100 million? That's like nothing nowadays, what bs

I thought this orc shot was a girl in prosthetics but apparently she's all mocap CGI. Pretty impressive
>>62741024
Nothing the arrow is pointing to the dark portal that they travel through
>>62741076
oh. didnt think it was hidden enough to warrant a huge arrow

>>62741168
Yea they didn't even show Medivh in the trailer.
>>62741171
if that is CGI it's as good as it gets for now, that looks like a real life bodysuit. Yeah, not a real life orc, but some kind of real life costume at the very least.
>>62741168
whatever nerd, it's gonna be a great movie. I agree that they probably could have made a pretty gud movie with fel orcs as well, I mean Sauron was pure evil as well and it made for a good movie but whatever.
>>62741168
also not pointing out dwarves and elves in the council scene
Fukken hacks

>CGI in front of real sets looks realer
whoda thunkit
Whatever happens, I bet I'm gonna be mad as fuck that it's too much WoW and not enough Warcraft
>>62741168
So who is antonidas in the trailer?
One of the dudes in a gay circle at the top of the tower in the beginning?
Is that city Dalaran then? But we see a floating dalaran later on. Do they really send it to the sky for no fucking reason in the film?
>>62740145
What side of the portal is that picture from?
Doesnt look like a swamp aka black morass
It could be tanaan. But from the leak iv seen its already dead when they opened the portal
So I assume the made the black morass into a jungle instead of swamp for the movie.
Which isnt too much of a streatch since STV is right nearby
Cameo of a captured jungletroll maybe?
>>62740178
That would actually be perfect. Offer an instant level 100 (or whatever the cap is now).People might even buy tickets just for the free stuff without actually giving a shit about the movie.
>>62741912
imo that could be swamp of sorrows, just STV on the hills
>>62741760
The far shot of the tower I think is karazhan, webm related.
kadgar is seen walking up the stairs at 00;20 of the trailer. That's Dalaran, it's in the clouds. The mage he faces is Antonidas who is on the right at the funeral scene with lothar.
Oh and I think this is also the back of medivh's head in this webm
>>62741951
> Offer an instant level 100 (or whatever the cap is now)
dude, they sell that shit for 60 bucks
if im a wow player and i get that feature for just the price of a movie ticket and get to watch the movie, i would absolutely do it
>>62742416
That shot when he lands the griffon reminds me of Obi-Wan on the lizardin episode 3
>>62742441
The best thing is, it doesn't cost them anything to give out digital content. They can make the movie a huge financial success by giving out incentives that it costs them literally nothing to make.
Pretty much done with Warcraft long ago, but answer me this one simple question?
Why the fuck arent they green?
>>62742584
The main orcs are pre-demon blood orcs
>>62742584
most of them are
>>62742600
Not really, but I guess its retconned then
>>62740145
Duncan Jones has only ever done two films, and they had budgets of 5mil and 32mil, respectively.
I don't find it outside the realm of possibility that he did Warcraft for 100mil. Most of the technology was already there - it didn't require anything terribly innovative.
>>62742416
Nah Medivh isn't that old yet and in some leaked footage it showed him(obviously Ben Foster), he had long dark hair and had a huge staff casting a spell.
>>62742600
That whole "pre demon orcs are brown" shit is just awful and was clearly not thought through by Blizzard when they came up with it in WoW. For example: Ner'zhul rejected the demons and he's still green. Though WoWfags will defend it to the death just like the Dranei/Eredar retcon
>>62742669
demonic emissions
>>62742584
They haven't been exposed to fel magic enough yet to turn green.
Only Durotan and Orgrim + friends are still brown in the trailer, the rest are green. Also we see Thrall as a baby and he's already green due to fel magic exposure among the orcs.
>>62742649
ah true I forgot about that and this pic. Maybe it was Moroes or something
>>62742694
More like demonic bullshit
There Will be a fight between a character and a mud golem
>>62742669
I think they did it as a way for new audiences to distinguish the frost wolves from the orcs who drank the demon blood and not get them mixed up which is a smart move considering they're trying to reach mass audiences so they can make sequels.
>>62742669
it's fucking stupid especially considering thrall is green and born from brown orcs.
>>62742720
Mass audiences wouldn't give a fuck
![sXcCZiI[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/Jsrdzl2.png "sXcCZiI[1].png")
>>62740145
>no frozen throne or undead/lich king
into the trash it goes
>>62742704
Holy shit Medivh looks badass
>>62742731
Maybe Durotan and Draka have enough steel will power to keep the demonic emissions from disrupting them, but Thrall is just a retarded baby so it instantly effected him.
>>62742720
The color of the orcs skin won't affect how it does financially. It's just dumbing it down and that's never a good thing
>>62742738
>attempting to present this kind of obvious fact to Blizzdrones
read the thread, it's literally all "but if Thragyll's relationship with his father isn't translated faithfully then his pact with the Moon People of Urmom will seem undermotivated!"
people who still care about WoW are fucking idiots, it's like one of the most reliable social red flags that exists.
>>62741002
>Trailer has 17 million views already and only been out a week
Star Wars 7 trailer did the same in... few hours?
>>62740178
nobody plays WoW anymore tho
>>62742775
They're not even comparable wtf. Star Wars has been around since the got damn 70's and has 7 movies already.
>>62742775
sw is normie as fuck
wc is still viewed as extremely neckbeard
6-7/10
>>62742781
There's also Heroes of the Storm. Blizzard could quite easily use it to promote the movie and vice versa.
Like you get a code with the ticket which you can use to get Durotan or Lothar as a hero in HotS.
>>62742830
FUND IT
>>62742830
even less people play that fucking game dude
>>62740145
I'd rather watch this than star wars desu
They're counting on everyone with a faint interest in Warcraft to watch this movie. I'm sure 30-40% will do it and that'll cover it just fine.
Glad to see the
>hurr durr cgi is supa bad f4m
posting has died down
I really want this film to bomb hard. After what Blizzard did to the starcraft story I want them to crash and burn.
>>62740145
It's saving grace will be the fact that it's SO DENSE.
Every single image has so many things going on!
>>62740145
it definitely won't be as dank as the force awakens

what's your problem, m8
>>62742838
Fewer people. You mean fewer people you uneducated swine.
5 million people play WoW right now, with probably 2-3 million people on the brink of resubbing.
There will be a few 100 thousand people who play HoTS.
And then there are the 30 million Hearthstone players.
Offer a WoW Mount, a HoTS Hero and some Hearthstone cards and you have nearly 40 million potential customers.
isnt this even worse than capeshit? like even more underage people play wow than read batmen comics. looks really gay tbqh
>>62743134

Why the arrow on the dark portal? That picture is on Azeorth not Draenor.
>budget is 100 mil which just cannot be
Why not?
>>62742775
And now you know why they delayed the movie from December this year to early summer next year.
>>62743957
There's a gateway on each side of the portal - one in Azeroth, one on Draenor.

I used to play WoW for 4 years.
I had some really good times while playing and I'm definitely going to see it just for nostalgia.
