Holy fuck those threads. Those fucking threads for months and months after the first trailer
>It wont even break 50 million dead on arrivlal
Why is /tv/ always so wrong and why is their opinion always so god awful?
>>70815801
Wasn't half the gross from China or some shit?
They really have the worst taste ever.
>>70815801
WHAT IS BAIT?
you got trolled.
some people were saying 1.5 billion too, so IGNORE THAT SHIT.
>>70815801
I seriously hope pretending to like this movie doesn't become a meme. Batman V Superman was really good but the prequels weren't.
>>70815829
Damage control.
We're the opposite of /pol/
This the movie that shows that China is now the most important place for movies.
>>70815846
BvS was dog shit

Hi Duncan
>>70815881
no it wasn't you fucking retard
the movie was surprisingly decent. as someone who's never played any of the games I wasn't expecting it to even hold my interests but i actually enjoyed it. been too caught up in grimdark fantasy lately
>>70815889
lol tv in fuckin denial it's hilarious
>>70815899
Yes it was faggot
>>70815888
this was probably the worst experience i've had this year
>>70815910
You're a retard.
>>70815912
Wasn't think supposed to be a huge hit Duncan?
$300 million is pretty pathetic for all the marketing money your team blew off on this movie.
>>70815944
Why does someone liking a movie you don't cause such anger and hostility? I don't think you're meant to be that attached.
>>70815888
Stop posting your shitty video everywhere you moron.
>>70815975
Welcome to /tv/
Reminder that these are the two best movies of 2016 so far
10 years of waiting and it didn't even 1 billion
gg blizzard
Duncan Jones is a great filmmaker but, even as a long-standing fan of the game and autistic-as-fuck movie buff, I admit he dropped the fucking ball with this. You know what, though? Shit happens.
If he recovers (and he probably should recover - those idiot Chinese cunts have no idea about good taste, propping up the figures) then hopefully he'll return to something simpler and perhaps easier to control without huge studio influence.
I'm pissed that Maximillian of Northshire wasn't in it, though. Fucking studios.
>>70815801
SHILLS ON FUCKING SUICIDE WATCH
>>70815801
>been out less than a week
>Thinks $300m is bad for a movie with a $160m budget
Reverse-shills SHOOK
>>70815829
>CHINA HAS WORST TASTE EVER
>Top selling domestic is a star wars film
Here is to hoping that if they make the sequals they wont cut the movie as badly as they did this one
Had a nice premise to it and with very basic knowledge of wow lore it was kinda nice and i wanted more but it honestly felt empty. no real character interactions besides like one scene.
I dont know. if the uncut version turns out to be alright this movie gets a pass for me.
>>70815936
No it wasnt kino hater
Are we witnessing the end of Disney's hold on the internet memecritics?
I mean, no one can really defend BvS being worse than CW. They overplayed their hand there
>>70817050
Not him but BvS was really, really mediocre
>>70816992
The problem i see a sequel having is that in this first one, it struggles to both introduce the concepts in the world and characters in its aloted time so the pacing is off
the second war is like 5 times as insane as the first if they even want to include half of it
this first warcraft includes:
Humans
1/3 of a continent
Fel magic
Arcane magic
dwarfs (cameo only)
elves (cameo only)
The next has:
ogres
trolls
high elves
dwarfs
gnomes
voodoo magic
holy magic and paladins
the weird steampunk tech iron forge has
the other 2/3 of the continent (and they go all over it back and forth)
I don't know how you would get a good narrative out of it
>>70817145
Alliance is set up in the ending scene of this movie.
2nd movie:
Gul'dan sparks war again. Horde is getting its shit pushed in. Orgrim usurps Gul'dan, keeps him alive since now the Orcs are outnumbered badly. Orgrim and Gul'dan have different ideas on how to win. Orgrim goes around forming the "Old" Horde, dragons will most likely be cut. Gul'dan introduces Death Knights. Stormwind sacked. Introduce Lordaeron, paladins and the Light. The siege of Lordaeron will probably be replaced with a siege of Ironforge, and the big final battle will be at Blackrock Mountain.
>>70815801
The only box office that counts is the US one.
I say this as an Aussie too. Who cares if it pulled in 500 million pesos? I want to know how American audiences received an American movie.
>>70817625
>Who cares if it pulled in 500 million pesos
The studios you retard
>>70815959
You mean, like, none?
The marketing for this movie was almost non-existent.
>>70817625
>Who cares if it pulled in 500 million pesos?
are you retarded? that number is in USD, which means its made that much regardless of currency.
As long as it makes money from somewhere they dont give a fuck.
>>70815829
And people said it would do well in China. And the idiots saying 50 mil still said it wouldn't make more.
Always the opposite, remember when bvs will get 2 billion? Remember when tfa will flop almost everyone on tv says tfa flop?
>>70817988
People who thought a Star Wars would flop are literally some of the most retarded individuals in existence and completely lack any form of critical thinking. I would advise them to start wearing a helmet immediately whenever they venture out of their house.
>>70817988
/tv/ is part of 4chan
4chan is full of contrarians and narcissists with contrarian and narcissistic opinions
It's almost as if you're surprised when a contrarian and narcissistic prediction turns out to be wrong
>>70817946
YOU'RE THE RETARD
CHINA BOX OFFICE RETURNS ONLY 25% OF GROSS TO THE STUDIO
WARCRAFT BOMBED IN AMERICA WHERE THE STUDIO GETS THE BULK OF ITS MONEY
WARCRAFT DIDN'T EVEN WIN ITS OPENING WEEKEND, ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC OUTING
CONJURING 2: 40MIL
WARCRAFT: 25MIL

>>70818202
I enjoyed the movie :)
>>70815801
>Why is /tv/ always so wrong and why is their opinion always so god awful?
brah. the problem is that you shills tried to hype a movie that most of don't care about.
it's been years since I played wow, let alone the previous games. I mean I wouldn't care about lore inconsistencies, CGI issues, lackster actors. But the warcraft fad in the west had faded. China still plays wow but most of us just don't care.
>>70818299
Stfu fag. If anything the amount of money its making proves many are interested so maybe you should stop being in denial and thinking everyone shares your views. They don't.
>>70816491
Exactly?
>>70816171
the biggest problem of this film is, apart from the content cut in messy way, jones' direction
he was in control of casting, production design, cinematography and he failed to hire talented enough people
>>70818448
>fails to see that a star wars prequel is more pleb than an original film
>>70817590
>dragons will most likely be cut
Mistake. People LOVE dragons and dragon riders right now.
>Gul'dan introduces Death Knights.
>Introduce Lordaeron, paladins and the Light.
Fuck, I know how it went but it sounds so shit, like something out of Power Rangers.
>Oh no, BBEG has these dark evil super soldiers!
>It's ok, we JUST SO HAPPENED to train some light, good super soldiers!
>The day is saved!
>>70815801
>$304.7 million Box office
>Original Budget: $160 million
That's really amazing for a video game movie! All should be proud
>>70818645
You do know that they need half a billion dollars to break even, right?
>>70818708
No they need 12 billion dollars to break even, dolt
>>70818554
>People LOVE dragons and dragon riders right now
People have always loved dragons. It's just easy to do now with CG
>>70818972
People into fantasy have, sure. But now everyone watches GoT and loves Kelly C.
>chinabux
LOL
The fact that it made some money in no way affected my opinion of the trailers, which were shitty. If I hadn't seen the trailer, I might have actually gone to see this.
>>70818708
>$160m budget
>need $500m to break even
hmmmm.. maths is certainly not for you
>>70815801
>Why is /tv/ always so wrong and why is their opinion always so god awful?
Because you only remember the loudest and most obnoxious things that you read here since you are reading hundreds if not thousands of posts per day and no one is yelling over and over again: "Warcraft is going to be a moderately successful film that will disappoint critics, do reasonably well with fans and casual viewers and make most of its money in foreign markets!" All you ever get are extremes: "BvS is the best capeshit ever" "BvS is worse than having a tick in my urethra!" No one gives a fuck about reasonable middle of the road often correct opinions.
>>70818708
>people still believe this
lol at this ratio 99% of Hollywood films would be abject failures and the industry wouldn't exist
>>70815801
>Everyone in the world thinks it was good, decent or just ok
>America decided to shit all over it before it was even released, in some cases giving it 0%
I really feel like america has boycotted this film. Why do they want it to fail so badly?
>>70819635
>>Everyone in the world thinks it was good, decent or just ok
This is what wowcunts actually believe
>>70819635
because we've seen that video game movies are literally never good, so we assume that right away (fairly or otherwise).
>>70818202
Except the studio is owned by a chinese corporation
I D I O T
>>70815801
300m is nothing
>>70819420
Actually it's not that far off, depending on the size of marketing (which isn't part of the budget) and other costs related to publishing.
The publishing in China was probably next to free, since Legendary is owned by the Wanda Group, and there was barely any marketing in America, so it's probably not very outrageous, but it is more than 160 mill for breaking even.
500 mill+, or rather 6-700 mill+ is needed for a sequel to be viable though, which considering that the audience response was pretty good, they'll probably make if they get that high an income, whether it be in China or elsewhere.
>>70819667
DOESNT MEAN SHIT
EXHIBITORS TAKE 50% MINIMUM
LEGENDARY WAS ONLY ACQUIRED IN 2016
WARCRAFT LOSING ITS OPENING WEEKEND IN AMERICA AT ONLY 25MIL WAS AN UNEQUIVOCAL BOMB FOR A SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER
THEN ITS 27% DROP FROM ITS OPENING DAY, WEAK AS FUCK NO LEGS WHATSOEVER
>>70820037
nice made up numbers.
>>70817107
But it was. BvS was shit
Warcraft was pretty good fantasykino though
>>70818202
>>70820037
Actually, theyre making 55% of the money in China (highest ever for a foreign film)
>>70820255
Did your uncle that works at Nintendo tell you that?
