I just watched Warcraft with a few friends and holy shit how are you supposed to know what is going on if you don't know the lore.
>>

you aren't
i don't know what they were banking on.
i guess the chinese and that's all

because the movie does a shit job explaining the story.
and people who actually know the lore hate it because it deviates too much from what actually happened

The problem isn't the films cgi. It's not great.

The problem is the Warcraft movie is barely even Warcraft.

Also pacing is dicks and is overall boring as fuck.

Only good thing about it was playing WC3 again right after.

I feel this movie is just a big set up for sequels where things will actually happen and make sense, but without explaining anything in the first movie you will not get enough viewers to actually make it all happen.

The first half made sense. The second half, starting right about where the Lothar/Garona love plot initiates, is a god damn mess that is likely the fault of editing.

It isn't a terrible movie, but it tried to ram in too many plot points and failed to make it cohesive.

Also, fuck all the Thrall shit in this movie.

As someone who sort of knew the lore (as much as, orcs didn't come from Azeroth, and WoW-times-stuff), I really enjoyed it.

It wasn't hard to follow, the things that were changed (Guardian dying, orc-lady not betraying, Dallyan frying) didn't seem to upset my Warcraft full hardcore nerd faggot friend much. The CGI was bad at times, but seeing Stormwind and that one flyover shot over Elwynn was absolutely fantastic. Most of the combat was really good, probably poorly choreographed but I didn't notice.

I dunno. I liked it.

It's also got an 84% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes and did fine at the box office. Already flew well past its budget.

What the anon said earlier about this movie being a retard test was one hundred percent spot on. If you couldn't follow this, you are a retard and should take a break from videogames for a little while. Pick up a book or something.

>>340784954

Oh yea sounds great on paper. All this arena try hard 1v1 fag bullshit.

FFXIV did the same thing and it is terrible. Having PvP only abilities and making a disconnect in gameplay (the stuff you worked for is worthless).

It's not about curbstomping, it's about camping blackrock mountain. Long ass AV's. Scrubs get pwned by a dude with an asscandy and it motivates them to play the game.

I don't know much of the lore at all and I still enjoyed the movie.

You're pretty much thrust into the world and everything starts moving at a near break-neck pace; if you try to keep up and understand everything, you're going to be lost. If you just sit back and enjoy the ride, it's a fairly tight movie that doesn't hit any dull/slow points along the way.
>>
>pasta because the previous thread was deleted.

Played the game since release day, know a decent amout about the lore and stopped playing around 4 years ago.

The dialogues are cringeworthy and the pacing is fucked to hell. It`s 2 hours of exposition.
Everyone who cares about WoW will know what happen anyway, and everyone who dosn't is probably confused as fuck.
What keeps this movie popular and makes retarded fanboys drool over it is that there is some recognizable stuff shoved in every few minutes. The movie basically goes like this:

10 minutes of shitty acting and dialogue -> HEY IS THAT A MURLOC? -> 10 minutes of shitty acting and dialogue -> HEY IS THAT WESTFALL??? I KNOW THAT I PLAYED THE GAME YOU KNOW! -> Action scene -> 10 minutes of shitty acting and dialogue -> rinse and repeat

I can`t remember the last time i was this bored during a movie. There were like 1 or 2 cool looking scenes like when gul'dan kills the deer , but that dosn`t excuse almost 2 hours of NOTHING HAPPENING

The CG looks okay on some parts, and absolutely terrible on other parts. Every time an actor is alone on screen with a CG character, (like when Lothar threatens to kill the orc if that wolf comes any closer ) the actor usually dosn't move at all, because they don' know what they are supposed to react to.

Also, i have no clue why they casted a fish to play the king.

Do yourself a favor and torrent it if you are curious. The low review scores are 100% justified, and it's not a movie for fans. It`s a movie for drooling retards that eat up everything that is well marketed.

Also, this movie was too fast paced. There were a lot of places and locations that would have made understanding where they were in the world really confusing for someone who didn't have the map memorized.

The fist fighting was waaay too shaky. Hard to tell what was happening in the fist fights because so much motion blur.

Other than that, it the only real concerning thing was how a medieval society was portrayed. The king was running into battle and in some random village. The queen was an illegal and was feeding the prisoner.

I feel sorry for you my man. Guess we are kinda lucky everyone stuck around and haven't split across the fucking globe.

>Eventually, alliances must be forged to save humanity and orc-kind alike. But first, young mage Khadgar, an ally of Lothar’s, must learn the secrets hidden inside a purple room that’s meant to be futuristic but looks like a rejected set from “Logan’s Run.” There’s also a giant, evil statue made of clay that comes to life, but it’s more unintentionally hilarious than frightening. And before there can be any peace, there is pummeling—lots and lots of pummeling—as the orcs fight the humans as well as each other under hot, dusty skies. It is brutal. It is repetitive. It is numbing.
>And just as it’s ending, “Warcraft” leaves all kinds of plot threads dangling for the ambitious possibility of a sequel. But you’ll be likely to cry “Game Over” because this first one is easily a contender for the worst movie of the year.
>0.5/4 stars

There's never going to be a good video game movie at this rate.

I'm with you, anon. And it was fucking terrible, people were chewing stuff all the time. At least the movie was pretty loud so it wasn't that annoying. Pretty bad experience nevertheless.

It would be impossible to capture the tragedy without knowing of what the humans were beforehand, let alone condense it into a 2 hour film.

The movie only covers the first war. That said they leave Stormwind alone at the end. I assume and hope that the next movie opens with a montage of the humans getting their ass kicked and stormwind falling.

I didn't hate it, but I don't know the lore that well, beyond Warcraft 3 and WoW. I played Warcraft 2, but I think this Shit was like, from an expansion?

The only good song is the first, it has a nice Orgrimmar feel to it. The rest feels like trite filler.

I didn't even play Warcraft 1 and all I could tell you is that: the Warlock tries to take all the orcs to Azeroth because their own world(Outlands) got tainted by this Fel thing.(Fel Magic from Kil'Jaeden Smith?)

Afterwards the Humans start to recognize that orcs have been raiding villages so that Guldan can summon the village. So the King tells the good orcs(Durotan clan?) to stop but the bad orcs ambush both parties.

So then the King's right hand man's son gets murdered by one of the bad orcs while his father was a few meters away from him because he couldn't do anything due to Medivh's chain lightning(Whatever it's called).

Go to the future the bad orcs raid the good orcs and the momma orc goes to the river and performs some Moses type shit and sends little baby Thrall down the river. A few seconds later momma orc dies( I swear the child down a river was from a religion.)

Medivh(Same one from WC III) then gets corrupted for some reason(Serious fuckup, how was he corrupted?) and corrupts his mana pool so he could summon the Dark Portal.

Medivh gets stopped. The King tells that the only way for peace is to get Garona to kill him instead of that huge ass bad meanie orc with claws for honor.

She kills him then everybody lives happily ever after.

Am I wrong?

Summon the portal I mean. FFS

>>340790256
I'm pretty sure originally she was half-orc, half-human because of Medivh's fuckery. Then when WoW came out, they fucked with the timelines and that no longer made sense, so they made her half-draenei instead of half-human.

So, they're kind of going back to what it originally was.
>>
>>340790256
Garona was 100% a rape baby. Blizzard changed it because SJW would be insane.
>>
>>340796743
I agree with you 100% on this. The soundtrack is trying to imitate World of Warcraft but it doesn't really get there. I was expecting holy chants during the intro to Stormwind.
>>
>>340799867
Medivh was corrupted by Sargeras (The biggest bad of all demons) before he was ever born.

No peace is achieved by Garona killing Llane except she is probably going to become a spy/assassin inside the Horde and the second movie (Here's hoping we get one) is going to start with Stormwind getting destroyed by the Orcs.

Did you enjoy watching it with your mother? That's all that counts.

>>340800682
No, we're extremely emotionally distant and I mostly went so she could feel like we did something together. Movie was ok.

>and people who actually know the lore hate it because it deviates too much from what actually happened

Sort of, the movie is mostly in line with the retcons Blizzard had already made ages ago. Yes if you're basing it on the pre-WoW games then it shits all over it but did you really expect them to disregard those changes?
>>
>>340801251
It's actually hilarious how bad this movie looks.
>>
>>340789289
I mean Thrall was in this movie and they made a big point about him being there. He'll probably have a bigger presence in the next one but not be a full adult yet
>>
Are you guys retarded?

I don't know shit about Warcraft, I almost always mistake it for Warhammer and never played any Warcraft games

Yet I went to the movie five hours ago and understood everything. EVERYTHING.
>>
>>340800682
I would give absolutely anything to watch just one more film with my mother. Anything.

Even X Men 33: Revenge of the Cook Throbber[\spoiler]

I felt they simpled it down so anyone could follow

It's green fel-magic instead of Sargeras, Mannaroth and Burning Legion.
Orcs are killing humans because they need fuel to their portal so they can save their own kind
Some orcs don't like Gul'dan because he is an asshole
Medivh was gone six years and got corrupted long ago

Only weird scene is Khadgar meeting Aegwynn (I'm guessing that was Aegwynn unless they changed something in WoW-lore)
>>
>>340785228
when making movie it is better to try explain with visuals and scenes rather than just have a bunch of lore mushed into your head by some boring nerds.

He doesn't have a beard in Warcraft 2 so.... actually he is pretty young.

One of the orcs looked like Hellscream and another looked like Ner'zhul
