ITT: We cast the inevitable upcoming Diablo movie adaptation
I want rather a Path Of Exile movie
that would be a great movie
Literal mobs. CGI mobs. China buy 5 billion ticket. US movie fan go home.
Idris Elba as Tyrael
Not gonna happen. Angels and demons but no Christianity would confuse the shit out of the plebs

AlsoTHE ROCKis gonna be the Barbarian.

CONNERY AS DECKARD LOOL
Fuck was I addicted to this game back in the day. Had a kickass bone/spirit necromancer with enigma armor.
Also the high sparrow dude could probably do Deckard Cain or whatever that old fucks name was
>>70710758
The first one has a story that could actually do very well in an fantasy-horror movie, I'll just copypaste it from the Diablo wiki
>The story of Diablo is based on an eternal war between the High Heavens and the Burning Hells. The Prime Evil known as the Lord of Terror (Diablo, one of three) is awakened from his Soulstone prison underneath the town of Tristram, and brings terror to the populace.
>As the player explores the labyrinth underneath Tristram Cathedral, the character learns more about the conflict, and about the Prime Evils. The player also learns that the hero is there to avenge his family who were killed by Diablo.
>Before the events of the game, Azmodan and Belial with many other Lesser Evils takes control of the Burning Hells and banishes the Prime Evils into the world in an event known as the Dark Exile. The archangel Tyrael gathers together mortal heroes to create the Horadrim to fight and imprison the Prime Evils in Soulstones. Mephisto is captured in Kehjistan and imprisoned under a Zakarum temple in what will eventually become Kurast, Baal captured in the Anaroch desert, near Lut Gholein. Tal Rasha, the leader of the Horadrim, sacrifices himself to capture Baal in a damaged Soulstone. Diablo is captured by a group of Horadrim monks led by Jered Cain in Khanduras and his Soulstone is buried in a cave near the river Talsande and a Horadric monastery with a network of catacombs is built over the burial spot.
>The prison of the Soulstone weakened over the centuries and when the northern lord Leoric (retconned to eastern lord) comes to Tristram and calls himself king, Diablo tries to possess him. King Leroic withstands the attempt, but is driven mad in the process, starting war with the neighbouring kingdom of Westmarch and kills anyone who opposes him. When his trusted advisor Archbishop Lazarus kidnaps Leoric's son to be possessed by Diablo instead, Leoric loses his last vestments of sanity.
>>70710758
>>70712502
>Lachdanan, captain of King Leoric's army, returns from the disastrous war and is forced to kill Leoric. Leoric curses Lachdanan and his followers with his dying breath. Not long afterward, Lachdanan and the king's guards are attacked by Leoric, resurrected as the Skeleton King, as they attempt to bury him.
>Under the premise of finding the missing prince, Lazarus led Tristram townsfolk into the labyrinth, to be slain by a demon called the Butcher.
>The game begins shortly after. The player descends through the levels into Hell. On the way the player kills Archbishop Lazarus, the Skeleton King and eventually defeating Diablo's mortal form, leaving him trapped in a soulstone. The hero's character pierces his/her own head with the soulstone, attempting to contain the demon and bring him to the sages of the East.
>In Diablo II it's ironically revealed that this is what Diablo had planned, as the hero would be a better host than the prince. Diablo II continues the story, with Diablo having possessed the hero who killed him. Canonically, the character class that defeated Diablo was the Warrior.
>>70710800
The druid was just a shit necromancer.
>>70710647
Here's what we do, have warrior as MC of the first movie where it's made pretty clear that he has no connection to leoric.
Then in the third movie we claim that he has always been the son of leoric, reconning story from the previous films.
yeah im sure they'll realistically create the feel of d1. tristram, that brooding sense of doom as you delve deeper as the music gets more ominous and by the end it's a sizzling distorted mess and spires of bone stick up out of oceans of lava etc
>>70710647
>Implying they can top the diablo 2 cinematics.
here's our mad king leoric
>>70712601
Let Del Taco direct it, give him 150 mil budget and make it pg 18, and everyone will be happy
>>70712601
D1 is the only one that could make a good movie.
D2 has way too many playable characters to make up the party and D3 just has a trash story.
>>70710647
Gerard Butler as main character's actor.
Make it campy as all fucking hell
>>70712712
D2 has the best settings tho, id love to see the desert from act 2 ir the barbarian land from act 5 on the big screen
>>70712753
>wanting to see another fantasy desert area instead of the butcher
>diablo 3
will it ever stop hurting?
FOOL!! You cannot even begin to imagine what you have set in motion this day.
Christian Bale as Imperious
>>70712778
dunno, i just have fond memories from when i played id as a kid and i fucking loved the desert city, the whole area as a whole and all the tombs and insect nests to explore
never played the first game tho, so theres that
>>70712753
>best settings
So you would rather see fucking sand than a church basement that gets more and more warped as you descend into hell?
>>70712841
Played it on release(friend of mine gave it to me since he was really disappointed after a week so i didnt have to pay anything, thank god)it was so unremarkable, i dont even remembrr the acts right now and couldnt even bother trying higher difficulties once i finished it.The only think i remember is that diablo was female and tyrel was black.
Ive heard that the expansion is great tho and apparently fixed the game, but cant be bothered trying it
>>70712914
sewers
worm lair
ancient tombs
arcane sanctuary
palace basement
>>70712881
ive got fond memories of kurast but seeing a dungeon slowly becoming more crazy would be way better
Amy Schumer as the Cow King
Idris Elba as the Sorcerer
>>70712914
not him, but I honestly found the setting of Diablo 1 to be pretty boring. The one thing it did better than Diablo 2 was eerie atmosphere.
>>70710647
No thanks. When I look at how they destroyed the Diablo franchise with the 3 and the pathetically childish story they created, I don't even want to see a movie about it. Especially because again we will have Chirs fucking Metzen at the writing.
Diablo 2 would be split into 3 or 4 parts depending of if they do the expansion or not.
>>70713119
wasn't diablo 2 lod 5 acts?
>>70713112
Did Metzen write Diablo's lore?
>>70710800
The drood was literally kevin costner
>>70713142
Yes but they could get two of the acts into a single movie, probably 1 and 2.
>>70713212
end of act 2 isn't very climactic
>>70713174
Metzen wrote 3 and also the clusterfuck that is wow, 1 and 2 were done by staff of blizzard north, none of which worked on 3.
>>70710647
All I care about in a diablo movie is a representation of the characters becoming more powerful and finding better gear.
I want to feel them level up in the movie and I want a large amount of focus on the equipment they use and its effects.
>reminder that there was a Diablo 3
>>70710750
tyrael wasn't a nigger in d2
jesus man
i would sacrifice a left nut to play black deckard cain
>>70710647
>inevitable
Warcraft is going to crash in the US and they arent going to make a profit off China
Blizzard is on its last legs, they are desperate and all their games are fading into obscurity
>>70713413
How do you know
>>70713413
His VA was tho
Think we'll get a Starcraft movie now?
I wonder who'll play Kerrigan?
...
They'd cast Scarjo wouldn't they?
>>70710647
How would play the role of bugs and fps drops in Diablo III?
>>70713459
because his race wasn't specified in the game or outside of it by any of the lore writes
Why not a movie following the exploits of the warrior in Diablo 1?
>>70712529
Plus the Warrior turns out to be the first son of Leoric.
The wizard ends up in another dimension and the rogue becomes one of the first bosses you kill!
So in the sequel we'd see these heroes we love, turned into evil incarnation of themselves.
>>70713536
so, this means he actually could've been black
>>70713621
Don't they keep everything hidden on an angel anyway?
Idris would just do voice work until he becomes mortal. Personally I'd just rather the guy from the game voice him.
>>70713621
I always thought he was black because the paladins were black and he was an angel, kinda worked
>>70713441

>>70710758
The answer is no. It has a bunch of retconned setting bullshit but the story is you hit mobs, you go deeper, you portal to town and you stay a while and listen. Rinse, repeat. That's it.
>>70719654
Did you even watched the cinematics? There are whole story
The Amazon
>>70719688
The cinematics are background fodder that serves as an excuse for you to hit people. The story is you hitting people.
>>70719654
>but the story is you hit mobs
No that's the gameplay
>>70719836
The story is in cinematics.
The main character is not even a part of it till act 4 cause of hitting monsters and.
>>70719579
Ain't that from Berserk that image

That's Guts lying on the ground.

>>70723228
For you.
Ok, we /v/ now, boys.
What would I've done:
1st diablo game. 1st act. Main character is Kain. The shit is dark and minimalistic. Kain comes to the willage, we introduce characters in the willage, everything's creepy, a group of soldiers are going in the dungeon (set up for later). The traveler comes, we establish the wierd shit happening, the king's boy being kindapped. Travler goes away. Next day Kain talks to the witch, some creepy story is being told about demons n shit. Traveler comes back all fucked in "I've seen some shit mode".
>>70723883
2nd act. The hero tells about the dungeon, how he tracked the soldiers and killed the Butcher, flashback with action, blood and corpses. Hero battles the Butcher. Then we can introduce another hero in the willage, the sorcerer for exaple. They discuss the dungeon and their motivation to go down: save the boy just because, save for reward, get some treasure. They are having an argument with Kain about underground dangers, then they go down. And come back with a book about the stone and ressurecting the Diablo using little prince. Townsfolk gather and help the heroes gear up for the final quest. They go down the 3rd time.
>>70724282
3rd act, I have no fucking idea because I'm drunk af.
But probably they kill Diablo and have an argument about the stone. Sorcerer wants to get a power, study that shit, he's sure he will stay cool. Warrior's all about hiding it, protecting it or destroing it. Then we return to Kain, he meets the hooded figure, he knows its a hero, doesnt know wich one. Final scene - its the warrior, he had to kill his companoin. He reveals the stone, now he must contain the evil within himself, protect it. But he looks kinda fucking bad. Final monologue by Kain, some scenes of him going east, following the hooded figure.
Metzen cameo in the Blizzard Cinematic Universe when???

lol'd desu
3 movies, each one focussing on a prime evil, with diablo being the last (the expansion for 2 always had baal last but whatever) - first one sets the scene and explores the backstory leading up to the main story of Diablo 2, then he fighrs and defeats mephisto, second one does the same for baal while filling out more of the D1 story through cains storytelling/flashbacks/nightmares, then finally disblo for the last.
Real time actors but obvs CGI demons etc, skip a few of thr andarial/durial storylines, make it adult action/adventure with a lot of horror like the screaming babies of diablo 1 and you're set. Thats a winning franchise right there
