So how would you make Warcraft movie?

I would obviously base it on Warcraft III Alliance campaign since it's the one interesting part.

Meh. I was interested in seeing this more because of Duncan Jones than Warcraft really.

I played Warcraft games since Warcraft II, but the cool parts of those games were never the story. The story was always super derivative and just a simplified version of other classic fantasy cliches.

What made those games great was the gameplay and the fact that the cinematics were cool. Actually, come to think of it an animated Warcraft movie would've probably been cool.

Blizzard forgot to develop Alliance the instant Warcraft 2 ended, so it is not completely out of question that humans are kept in a dim atmosphere to make them more mysterious than they really are.

This.

I feel really bad for Duncan. He trusted Blizzard, and Metzen out of all people.

I mean, this is fucking Blizzard. Even during their worst times, I don't think they had something as poorly as rated as this (Except maybe Diablo 3, but those were from butthurt fans)

I mean, I waited 10 fucking years for this travesty, when they could have been making Warcraft IV?

The only thing Metzen can do is pic related now. Nothing will ever save him from this embarrassment.

I saw Captain America : Civil war two weeks ago, the terrible CGI ruined some of the most important sequences of the movie, for a budget way higher than Warcraft. But I guess they didn't make good CGI for Captain America because they didn't want to, not because they were incapable of doing better.

I'm a huge critic of Starcraft 2 and even that game was highly praised regardless of Blizzard's retarded decisions (no chat, no lan durrhurr)

This movie seems to be far far below Blizzard. If I were them, I'd feed Duncan to the lions. Poor him, but some things must be done to keep whatever they have left of their reputation.

Basically just trash the movie and whine about Legendary. It's the only way Blizzard can get out of this.

1. No. His ball's slashed (no, really), and then he's backstabbed.
2. Basically Orgrim inherits the whole Frostwolf clan or whatever lefts of it, while Garona, thanks to actually killing Llane, the whole Orc army. Gul'dan's salty about it and left.

Gul'dan is still leader, but out of fear and not out of respect from the other orcs.

Garona is seen as a hero and Gul'dan officially welcomes her a member of the Horde and a true orc.

Orgrim seems to be alone but the movie isn't really clear about the state of the Frostwolf clan (all dead ? few survivors ? banned from the Horde ?).

That wasn't the point of my post and you perfectly know it, stop straw-manning. I agree good CGI isn't sufficient to make a good film.

Movie opens with a two-part sequence on Draenor (Durotan + Draka intimacy, then Gul'dan and opening of the portal). The intro was actually my favorite sequence, very good music/visual interactions, and Gul'dan is effectively bad-ass.
Final climax is indeed Stormwind, but final shot isn't.

How can you not tell the movie is complete dogshit from this alone? Ner'zhul is not even in the movie. I'm not a WoWfag but even I know that he was the one who blew up the protals and made Draenor a dying world.

That never happens in the movie so how the fuck can it be dying? The dying Draenor shit is Warcraft 2, not 1.

While on the gameplay / game mechanics side Blizzard is still top notch (aside from missteps, like vanilla D3), I think the movie and it's reception reflects fairly accurately how they are doing on the writing and world building side.

Frankly, Metzen is just an awful writer / story director.

As far as I remember, Ner'zhul only shattered the planet into splinters years AFTER the main wave of orkish rapefugees went on to enrich Azeroth. Before then, the world was indeed dying, but to the extent that it was no longer fit to support most of its life - thus prodding Orc shamans to try and find new world to infest.

The original -as well as later- premise was that Draenor was tip-toeing on a thin edge of balance that was ensured due to the fact that Orkish clans would often struggle against each other. Demonic intervention proved to be the tipping point, as nearly all of the clans rallied under one leadership, thus making their ranks grow exponentially at the expense of both other sentient races and wildlife.

Very brief, it's the first scene after the intro. Lothar gets offered a gun by a dwarf and receives a missive, so he leaves instantly. Whole scene must be about 3 minutes.

>Ruling is hard. This was maybe my answer to Tolkien, whom, as much as I admire him, I do quibble with. Lord of the Rings had a very medieval philosophy: that if the king was a good man, the land would prosper. We look at real history and it’s not that simple. Tolkien can say that Aragorn became king and reigned for a hundred years, and he was wise and good. But Tolkien doesn’t ask the question: What was Aragorn’s tax policy? Did he maintain a standing army? What did he do in times of flood and famine? And what about all these orcs? By the end of the war, Sauron is gone but all of the orcs aren’t gone – they’re in the mountains. Did Aragorn pursue a policy of systematic genocide and kill them? Even the little baby orcs, in their little orc cradles?

>The war that Tolkien wrote about was a war for the fate of civilization and the future of humanity, and that’s become the template. I’m not sure that it’s a good template, though. The Tolkien model led generations of fantasy writers to produce these endless series of dark lords and their evil minions who are all very ugly and wear black clothes. But the vast majority of wars throughout history are not like that.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3110466/Game-Thrones-creator-defends-rape-scenes-Author-says-dishonest-boring-leave-sexual-violence.html

>>

50-50.
If you can filter the words out from the reviews, they actually have a point or two, like the storytelling and characters and actings that are meh. The rest are quite unfair, like comparing the movie to GoT, where the one and the only similarity is it's fantasy. Warcraft's a more colorful one, and it's faithful to the source.

Remember back then when somebody's accused a Marvel fanboy just because s/he has exactly one good thing to say about Man of Steel, never mind the rest of the post? It's similar.

an Arthas movie sounds like some trilogy that one could make if the first warcraft movies get to be succesfull

The order of movies
1) We humans getting invaded, call for the old legendary alliance / we orcs are followers of this great shaman/warlock who opens portals so we can plunder planets, we form a horde even if half the clans hate the other half of the clans. Drama ensues. (war 1 events)
2) We orcs are tired of this bullshit leadership but we will follow anyway, Some epic battles and cool as speeches, heros die, shit gets conquered, orcs get defeated, nigger leader who corrupted us died, we must split and find our way, thrall moises scene (A NEW HOPE), credits
3) COUNTER ATACK, we humans make big party to enter the nether and fuck orc planet, chaos ensues as the planet land mass GOES TO SPACE. Meanwhile orcs get sent to labor camps. is this THE END OF WORLD OF WARCRAFT TM?

HUGE TIME SKIP

4) WARCRAFT: LORD OF THE CLANS. THRALL EPIC QUEST TO REDEEM HIS RACE

HUGE TIME SKIP

5) WARCRAFT 3 EVENTS
6) MORE WARCRAFT: WE GO NORTH - ORCS ARE FREE FROM DEMONIC CONTROL
7) LICH KING ASCENDS

and then we vidyashit

If Tolkien's orcs made him so upset, he should have read Silmarillion were it is explicitly stated that:

a) - Orcs have been ruined to the extent at which they view entire world with hate and fear

b) - That the former torturous transformation was the single worst act ever commited by the progenitor of all evil in the eyes of Creator of the universe due to the impact it had on orcs themselves.

In fact, Tolkien resented the very thought of making a race evil by default, thus meaning that the whole Warcraft's "Orcs aren't evil from the get-go! They were just warped that way!" '''''revolution''''' wasn't that much revolutionary in the first place.

Want to see genuinely "mostly chaotic neutral, with strong capacity towards good"-type orcs? Try Elder Scrolls franchise in its second installment. TES: Daggerfall was already out when Metzen began creating Thrall for that unfinished point-and-click adventure game and - surprise! - it already has the kind of story for orkish redemption and striving for their own homeland that Metzen tried to peddle since WC3.

maybe it's because nobody has cared about warcraft story since they stopped doing actual games and just shit out an MMO.

sure there's lore there too, but 99% of people who've ever played WOW only ever did it because it was popular or because they liked the gameplay. Even that though has pretty much shriveled up over the years at last which is why people were so desperate to revisit old times.

So why the hell did you think a game movie could work if its about the characters themselves? If they wanted to make a movie, should've just been about fat losers playing world of warcraft and getting sucked into the world or something. Like South Park + the bajillions of animes that constantly love using that theme of being stuck in a game. At least THEN you'd have some interesting points.

It's not that people never cared about the lore, they did, it's that it changes every expansion because the writers are too lazy to think up new things.
There's just no point in getting invested in any story change, because you just know it's going to get changed for no reason, get outright raped, or be introduced as the next big thing and then be completely ignored

Im a long time WoW fan and fan of Warcraft in general. But i gotta admit this movie couldnt work. Blizz has always used a cartoonier art style in their games, its just how they are. Translating that to a movie just.. doesnt work well.

I don't like Blizzard anymore, but come on.
