I mean, it looks like it is going to make a profit, so there is that. God damn, they just did not care about the lore at all in the movie.

They were thinking "hey, let's make an incredibly shitty low-budget Warcraft movie and secretly pocket the rest of the money."

Whatever they claimed their budget was, they pocketed at least half of that. Either that or they're just immensely incompetent. Actually, now that I think about it, it's probably the latter. There's that phrase "don't attribute to malice what you can attribute to incompetence", rings true to this day.
>>
>>340952783
What was the budget? Even short CGI advertisements / trailers cost millions.
>>
>>340953110
Apparently 160 million, which is an absolute disgrace for how shit the movie came out, but they did at least make a profit off it due to overseas popularity.

Technically, blood elves are supposed to look vicious/mana dependant and full of scars/runes because of their age with sharp male features.
It wasn't until wow that they pussyfied them and guess it's safe to asume high elves should look like a bit more controlled version of those.

High Elves became the Blood Elves after Arthas used the Sunwell to bring back kel'thuzad. They slowly started dying off or going crazy due to lack of mana. If you played Fallout imagine if the entire human race suddenly started turning into ghouls, with some dive bombing straight into ferals, but everyone going to be pure 100% feral in years. Then they went to Outland and discovered that they could metabolize Fel energy, and started doing that instead. Because Blood Elves are awesome and 'evolved' to metabolize energy rather than let it settle in their systems, they aren't corrupted by Fel energy except that it turns their eyes glowing green instead of blue.

Because a human leader was a dick to the blood elves and was literally going to execute their entire race because he only wanted pure humans on Azeroth, the Blood Elves escaped en mass to Outland. Later they returned to join with the Horde because humans might still want to kill them, Sylvanas an ex-ranger was queen of the forsaken, and the Horde would respect their strength without looking down upon them for not being human.

High Elves eyes glow blue, they have since their unit was first introduced. Its also a huge point to identify High Elves from Blood Elves in WotLK. Saying they don't need to glow blue is like saying that they don't need blue eyes for the Fremen in Dune

They need somewhere in the vicinity of 600 million to at least strike even. Ticket sales arent a 1:1 thing. And it continues to cost them money to keep it out in theatres and market.

Generally they need to make at least twice as much their production budget for a profit. But that was a standard from many years ago. Its often cited as at least 3 or more times. Considering how big the warcraft movies was meant to to be, 500-600 million is the often mentioned needed amount to be considered getting any profit.

>the end was written so poorly
Gul'dan is supposed to control the horde from the shadows, and he has other warlocks working under him.
Draenor isn't dying and a lot of orc clans remain there.
Blackhand is the warchief, but Gul'dan falls into a coma when Medivh dies, at which point Doomhammer kills Blackhand and takes control of the horde.
Doomhammer doesn't trust the warlocks and has them killed and makes Gul'dan submit to him as he wakes up.
Stormwind is sacked. Lothar, the prince and azeroth refugees flee north.

At the start she saw them as kindred spirits because they were both 'forsaken' by those they called allies. She also acted like she might like the idea of having her brethren part of the Horde fighting alongside her. Now she kinda acts like they are a part of her forces, but she still prefers to work with them over other units outside the Forsaken.

She also loves flirting/threatening Lor'themar, and she mentions multiple times that she plans on making him a consort when he dies and she brings him back. The failure of SoO if Lor'themar dies Sylvanis says "Finally, I can't wait to see how beautiful you are when I bring you back!" and then everything fades and raid is reset.

The pacing itself was pretty bad towards the middle and end.

It also gave you no sense in scale.

The first scene starts in Draenor, then Ironforge, then immediately cuts to Stormwind, then immediately cuts to Karazhan, then back to the Black Morass, back to Stormwind, then to Goldshire, then to Deadwind Pass, etc.

As someone who plays the game, I completely understood. My girlfriend however, had no clue how far they were traveling.

The sense of time from Stormwind to Goldshire was at least a 2 day travel.

Khadgar makes it all the way to Dalaran (which is floating? Uhh) in the far North lear Lordaeron. He is then immediately back to Stormwind to deliver news to the gang, and knew exactly what was happening after it was established Fel magic was incredibly dangerous and not well understood. Ben Foster acted the fuck out of his trainwreck of dialogue. The Medivh/Khadgar relationship was not properly translated.

The fight scenes between the Orcs were cool. The fight between Blackhand and Lothar was really bad. Gul'dan was cool, but again not properly translated from the novels.


The second movie will likely be a mashup of the ending of WC1 and some navy battles from WC2, culminating to the Battle of Blackrock, and the heroes going thru the Black Gate with the skull of Gul'dan.

The CGI is good. It looks shitty on Youtube, but it looked good on the silver screen.
>>
>>340960781
>I know nothing about the film industry
Yeah you've proven that already, you didn't need to announced it a second time. As someone who was the assistant manager of a chain of theatres that spanned from Nevada to SoCal, who knows little about how movies make money, it's blatantly obvious that I still know more than whatever the fuck you're saying.

The fact of the matter is that profit is on a movie-by-movie basis, and trying to make any kind of sweeping claim that a movie is or isn't making a profit when you clearly don't fucking know, is fucking retarded.

For example, marketing costs, can be anywhere from 45% to 160% of a movie's production costs, but here you are, trying to spell out sweeping "average numbers" as if there's some market standard because you're just some tween on the internet that thinks he knows shit.

I bet you don't even fucking know the percentage of money that actually goes to the production studio from a movie ticket, you just know that it isn't 1:1, because that's a completely fucking obvious statement.
>>
>>340959387
Jaina actually wasn't the original reason they joined the Horde, she just stopped the peace treaty the BE were trying to work between the Alliance and Horde by slaughtering a bunch of BE and even some Kirin Tor High Elves.

Originally the human general in charge of the Alliance forces in WC3 was evil as fuck and hated all non-human races. He seemed okay with the Dwarves because they were kind of like humanity's sidekick at that point. He forced the Blood Elves to hold a line separate from all other Alliance forces, gave them no aid, and sent them on a suicide mission. The Naga helped the BE under orders by their queen who used to be a Highbourne High Elf. The human leader saw this as treason and sentenced their entire race to be exterminated, throwing them into the same dungeons and camps they used to use to keep the Orc race as slaves before they escaped.

It's gonna be tough to fit in the latter part of wc1 with wc2, when wc2 is much longer than wc1.

I think you're right though, I just don't think they'll pull it off very well. There'll be annoying cuts.

Huh, I guess I can see your point, you might be right. I wonder though, do over fifty percent of movies need double the budget to profit? I know that's probably a stupid question since you just said that it can vary wildly, but if it's true that over half of all movies need at least double their budget in profit, then his statement with "generally" would be accurate, although he maybe could have worded it better I suppose.

That's Batman v Superman reasoning in which they went overboard with promotion and ancillary costs. A negligible number of movie would turn profit with that equation to EVERY production and the whole industry would go bankrupt. Most movie turn profit when they double their budget and are certified success when they are able to do 3x at box office.

>People whining about retcons
Bowie Jr has said time and time again that the movie is BASED on the lore of WC1/Rise of the Horde/The Last Guardian and would have deliberate diferrences to to the source material. He also said it does not retcon or change the official canon as this is a diferent continuity. Even fucking Christie Golden who has written a bunch of books for the game & book canon has confirmed this on Twitter (she wrote 2 preview novels to the film continuity).


The movie canon influences the ACTUAL canon as much as the Game of Thrones series does to the books. I dont like Blizzard but yall gotta check your facts before you can start shitflinging.

That said the movie is a solid 7 for fans, 5 for non-fans imho. Duncan really tried to make it work. Hope we get a trilogy with a Rise & Fall of Arthas. The Culling would be so grimdark it would make normalfags cringe.

Beacuse the choice of words make it distinct and it portrays Medivhs arrogance, how much more powerful he is than Khadgar and other mages and it suggests how powerful the threats he deals with are.
It also serves as a threat to Khadgar.

How is it badly written?

Half the fun of Warcraft is all the weird races, cultures, locations and powers.

What's the point of just orcs and humans? You may as well leap right into it and establish stuff like pandaren, goblins, night elves and naga. I mean why not? Why can't the human and orc stuff be referenced and left up to audience interpretation? All you really need is some brief conflict where humans go "you tried to wipe out our world" and orcs go "yeah but we were enslaved and you put us in camps" and so on.

They had to cut 45min of footage, a few scenes like the orcs marching in Dun Murough for example are in the trailers. Gromm had lines aswell as other chieftans. The scene where Blackhand gets a new hand has a shot of Orgrimm, Kargath, Durotan, Grommash and Kilrogg standing next to each other. Nerzhul was not there, something in accordance with the ACTUAL canon, he was in a coma in Draenor. I loved how Gromm grabbed Lothars son sword without effort. I was expecting him to get instantly Gorehowld. Kargath is also seen fighting with the other chieftans. Gromm actually has a lot of silent screen time. Kargath is just pointing his arm blade and laughing near the end after the portal is closed.


Also an orc saying "me not dat kind of orc" in reference to following Guldan after he cheated was amazing. And Khadgar leveling up. And Blackhand saying KEK. And the polymorph. Só much tastefully and universe adequate fanservice

I saw this on a shitty vcr-tier chinese bootleg, so I couldn't really notice how bad the cgi shit was.

But god damn, the movie did not do orcs justice at all. So much for Duncan's bullshit about both sides getting some focus. Shit was 80% humans and 20% orcs. Every scene with the orcs felt unnatural, rushed, and shoehorned.

Use of magic in azeroth makes it easier for demons and such to cross over, so yeah in a way.

The elves fo Quel'Thalas have wards(I think the runestones were part of that) for making spellcasting within that area safe.
Dalaran is protected in a similar way.

But with humans learning magic and rogue wizards using magic outside these types of wards demons can come through.

The council of Tirisfal imubed the guardian of Tirisfal to be able to fight these threats, because some demons are very powerful.

Medivh though is not the usual guardian, he wasn't chosen by the council, and he's been half possessed by a demon his entire life.
So maybe he was mostly just working on getting Gul'dan to cross over the last 6 years.

The movie objectively has poor pacing/writing/cringey dialogue at points.

It's certainly not less than a 50, but it's not that great as a film.

I'm willing to give a pass on that as a fan because they had to crunch together some very large elements to set up the universe right. No producer was going to give a new movie series like this a 2.5hr+ runtime like they did for LOTR, so they had to make cuts.

As far as normal viewers, there is a lot to love about this movie. Orcs look fucking amazing, they don't look like soulless monsters, they actually look like a legitimate other race with actual soul.

The world can be interesting at times and the fights were cool.

I went to see the movie with 4 people, 3 of which (including me) played WoW and 1 guy who couldn't give a fuck. The 1 guy that didn't give a fuck got really into the lore and started asking questions.

So it certainly has some appeal. I just don't think enough Americans are going to give it a chance unfortunately.

I really think they've set themselves up for a great sequel.

Most of the Orcs were sort of okay with Durotan dying. He was already a traitor and they killed his tribe.

Maybe because pulling that bullshit a second time would pull them past the breaking point, like how stupid do you have to be to not understand that.

The entirety of the Horde invasion failing because Guldan ruins it by being a cunt and betraying the other orcs is the entire plot of the games story, and obviously the plot of the movie. He is just trying to appease them long enough until he can get what he wants (which in the games is him trying to find the tomb of sargeras).

The original still exists, unchanged. If purrists were in charge of making movies they'd be fifteen hours long, cost a trillion dollars to make, be filled with every excruciating detail of the backstories and expanded universe, and retain all of the silliness and badness from the source.

The end of the big quest chain in Stonetalon Mountains was huge in terms of showing the different layers of Garrosh. It showed that while he put the Horde first and foremost above all else, he also believed in honor and not sensless murder. Even as an Alliance player I gained a lot of respect for his character after that scene as it showed he wasn't some mindless warmonger who sought conflict for the sake of conflict with no honor or respect for his opponents.

It doens't matter that the original still exists unchanged.

> If purrists were in charge of making movies they'd be fifteen hours long, cost a trillion dollars to make, be filled with every excruciating detail of the backstories and expanded universe, and retain all of the silliness and badness from the source.

There are of course no degrees to this. Just the purist impossible way, or exactly the movies vision.

Of course you can, but you don't have to make Dalaran fly, you don't have to have elves show up at Helms deep.

I consider capeshit films to be an improvement above the source material.

They're not good in the least, but if you can manage to turn a story that's completely retarded into something that's significantly less so then you've pretty much managed.

Imagine watching the shitty third raimi spiderman with the comic backstory of venom, it just wouldn't work.

Watchmen isn't actually capeshit, it's Alan Moore's story about why capeshit is dumb and the movie failed to capture that.

Batman and Superman is Snyder, of course it's shit.

I'm thinking about all the other cape shit films.

Anon comics are pretty bad, possibly worse than even the shittiest tripe japan chucks out which is probably why manga has killed the comic market.

WoW is shit because Metzen actually loves that tripe, considers his superior passed stuff bad because he believes grimdark is "immature" and worst of all loves the SILVER AGE, the era where batman was a manchild and villains did nothing but throw pies at people.

This movie looks like hot garbage and yet it cost 160 million dollars to make. For comparison, Whiplash had a budget of 3 million and it was absolutely gorgeous from start to finish.

I don't even watch that many movies and yet every single fucking scene in this shit looks like it was shot on some retard's garage with an iphone. I'm sure for someone who knows stuff about the medium watching even 5 minutes of this shit must be unbearable.

He actually looks like what Khaghar could be when you look at his in-game model

In fact, I'm more surprised they actually did magic for the movie and used guns instead of retconing it so it's just Orcs VS Humans without any magic bullshit or race appearances. I expected this shit to be uther shit, but it's okay with all the visual they've done. I'd fucking love a Warcraft 2 movie despite all the retcons just for the sake of muh graphics.

Yeah that was confirmed in the book that they go back to the nether upon death, I'm talking about the infesable idea that the legion is trying to take over an infinite number of realities the exact same way (Also being in a hyper present at any given point in normal time, meaning they're omniscient)

Why are people so obsessed in finding sides for the Elves in Warcraft?
All the elven races in Warcraft are unbearable assholes on the brink of sociopathy.
Lets all start by how the Highborne were basically Eldars on steroid, as their whole civilization was a cradle of degenerated hedonism fueled by their never-ending source of power who made every single one of them completely insane.
Their queen even fucking wanted to fuck Sargeras for she was so power-hungry she literally wanted to sacrifice a whole world just to be more powerful.
Even worse, after the splitting every single race went their own way and they all founded questionable empires which were all about fueling their old retardations and vices.
>Night elves make the "lol nature" bullshit kingdom in Kalimdor, they become extremely racist and xenophobic to the point of exterminating mindlessly every single creature that threatens their safe lands, they don't blame themselves for what happened but demons and their queen, so they hate magic users and demons to near hysterical levels, and everything that barely has any taint of it, including orcs and surprise surprise undeads
>High elves make the "FUCK YOUR SHIT, WE MAGIC NOW" empire in the lands of Quel'Thalas, where they manage to perfectly recreate the Well of Eternity with some of the vials, their culture thrives under the constant bliss of what was once their never-ending source of power, they are extremely isolationist and live peacefully with themselves for thousands of years, until the Troll start rolling in and they're forced to ask the retarded monkey-like humans for help, in return they will teach some basic magic to them, this leads to the foundation of Dalaran, the Kirin Tor and magic users, and High Elves despise every single magic user that isn't them, for they see them "not worthy" and "amateurish". Arrogant, prideful and self-absorbed, they despise everything that isn't 3000 years old and doesn't know how to conjure a sex doll made of mana.

I don't know, the legion expanding across time was stated by a C-dev known for being shitfaced on twitter. In the HC raid guide it's stated that Archimonde has "Reached across time and space" with implications that it wasn't an alternate Archimonde like people thought, but the ONLY archimonde in existance that wanted revenge for Hyjal. The other ingame suggestion is the idea that the legion was pissed at AU Guldan and sent him to MU.

The problem with this idea is that there is one legion across every universe. As much as blizzard wants the legion to seem infinite, an infinite number of demons spread across an infinite number is slightly different universes is Infinite minus infinite.

To make matters worse, the "one" archimonde is attacking an AU draneor like 30-50 years in the past meaning the legion exists in a hyper present that exists outside of the series current present (I.E you fight Archimonde in the present, go back in time to fight him in an earlier battle and he recognizes you because he exists in a time flow separate from your own).

It's one of the dumbest concepts I've ever seen in a game, because it basically means these entities would not only be like the mimic from the Edge of Tomorrow on Steroids, but they couldn't exist because they could not be infinitely summoned or de-summoned across an infinite number of realities.

This doesn't even take into account the infinite number of non-demonic Archimondes or Kil'jadens in each reality, because there is only ONE demonic version of them.

The demonic banishment property has always been an on or off thing.

First it was implied only Nathrazim could do it, then there is that quest in outland that has you capture demon souls (though it blatantly states it's a result of machines rather than a property of being demons).

Countless lorefags also assumed it was true because it's basically a cliche of demons in most fantasy.

>hey wouldn't it be cool if we could find a way for players to see pre-fucked Draenor and face off against the original horde and actually fight Guldan despite all of them being dead

So they tried to find a way that didn't involve bullshit "he never actually died" plot lines but were forced to go with probably the even worse off "it's time travel and now there's alternate universes and oops now the lore is fucked by the numerous plot-holes that time-travel entails"

Ok, let's say you have one specific succubus named Kara. Kara is in the nether, which is the same nether across all alternate universes, we have to assume this due to the implications.

If there is only one universe, kara leaves the nether and is now in the one universe bound to Undead Warlock Mr. Bones.

Now let's apply the infinite universes to the equation.

There are now an infinite number of slightly different universes many of which have Mr. Bones summoning Kara.

The infinite number of variation within the AUs would mean any given moment in time could be one where Mr. Bones summons Kara out of the nether and into a specific AU out of an infinite number.

Since she couldn't exist in all AUs at once she'd have the subtractive state of infinity against her.

It would be an infinite number of Mr. Bones trying to summon but ONE demon, the only KARA is the multiverses.

But hey, it's just one demonic mook against an infinite right? Surely they have enough demons to distribute across infinity? Well no, because demons have a very small leadership compared to their infinite numbers. These guys tend to show up wherever the legion is invading, as AU draenor shows us that these uni-demons are "roleplaying" their exact roles they would have in AU if they had actually been their AU counterparts.


The roleplaying is superb because the demons are actually the same demons we've faced, with the knowledge of our future because they exist in a hyper-present where wherevery they are in time it's as if they've traveled back in time from when we last fought them.

Essentially, why did Mannaroth try the same old trick? Does he have to do the same shit to draenor every damn time?

Essentially, HC Archimonde implies no matter what time we fight the demons, they're always up to date. Fighting Archimonde 30 years in the past in an AU is the same arch we fought in WCIII, memories and all, he's merely re-enacting something he's already done.

>Very evil kel'thuzad talks about evil grain
>Arthas and the goons ride to stratholme
>Arthas can't magically see the evil grain from a nearby mountain
>He goes on ahead with jaina and Uther being pretty far behind him

>Grain is evil
>Oh the sacks aren't opened so they didn't eat it, Arthas will just tell them to throw it away and...

Then the famous scene plays out while the new viewer is in shock.
It would even catch the oldfags off guard

Gul'dan passes his staff to Killrog in one scene, and there is a scene where Gul'dan is talking to Mannoroth in the background.

Why you gotta sideline all the really cool characters blizz.

You kill yourself leafboy. Garrosh did nothing wrong.

That's how they are in WoD, without fel influence.

Orcs aren't evil, but they're hyper-aggressive and their whole culture revolves around either conquering or dying for your clan.

The Frostwolf Clan is just the least aggressive, so they look much better by comparison.

This is just mental gymnastics to justify the fucked up lore, but what if demons are basically manifestations of the nether capable of existing anywhere at any time? They'd be like a natural phenomenon of the warcraft multiverse. There could be something in their nature that prevents them from doing whatever they want even with knowledge of future and past events.

>Orcs can be genocidal fucks without any demon forcing them into it.
>What is Grom Hellscream and his Warson clan going full chimpout on humans again and again

Don't delude yourself. Orcs are the worst.

>>340998075
to be fair the orcs were honorless genocidal bastards in Warcraft orcs and humans

>>340998639
>The Frostwolf Clan is just the least aggressive
They are actually the most aggressive clan out there, they have a natural born bloodlust which is absolutely horrifical and extremely dangerous to everything and everyone, Durotan strangled his own wolf to death because his mother's death triggered his blood lust state.
Yet, the Frostwolf Clan has learned how to control this lust and keep it away.

>>340997035
To be fair, due to movie curse they didn't want a nearly 3 hour bomb on their hands

It's not that the frostwolves are weak, they are just very good at suppressing their rage.

It's not mental gymnastics, it's basically what you get when you question why blizzard decided that HC archimonde had to be THE Archimonde when everything prior to the raid was set up under the idea that the legion in WoD was an AU legion.

Helll Archimonde was the boss of HC because Kil'jaden was revoked of his duties for failing to corrupt the orcs, something that would make perfect sense if it was an AU legion and our time travel bullshit foiled his plan.

But making him the same Archimonde from our time? Completely retarded and unnecessary

Even if we do except that "lol demons break reality" bullshit, it doesn't account for the fact that there are an infinite number of mortal Archimondes and Kil'jadens across an AU that in many potential realities would become demons.

How can their only be one then?

By adding the WoW shit

by making him literally hitler with no redeemable qualities whatsoever instead of a motherfucking beast

By making the actor that plays him recognizable after he becomes a lich

By making him a silent character with little to no importance. He'll also get killed.

They keep making orcs too human, they used to be beasts with savage intelligence, now they're basically just niggers that dindu nothing it's the fel system keeping them down.

The Horde is shit now, especially after taurens showed up.

"We're just misunderstood! Peace between all races! #OrcsWelcome"

Fuck off

I think the bigger issue was how Archie died in HFC. I mean, even in tBC, it was made clear as day that we didn't kill Kil'jaden, as he just got sucked back into the portal.

But in Warcraft 3, and even in the CoT instance, Archie got pretty fucked.
But how does he die in WoD? He just falls over.

Sure he launched Guldan out into regular Azeroth, but compared to the other end of xpac bosses, Arthas and Deathwing had clear in depth deaths shown in both gameplay and a cutscene.
(And while people often choose not to remember it, there was alot of speculation if we really killed Illidan even back in tBC, and we obviously didn't kill Garrosh at the end of Mist, so those two don't count)

But I mean, apparently they wanted this to be Archie's final death as the mythic fight was in the twisting nether, but they backtracked on that logic at the last minute so I guess we gotta fight him again at some point.

I expect >>340999712 though, as Kil'jaden always had the biggest beef with Illidan, and vice versa.

>>340998508
>and there is a scene where Gul'dan is talking to Mannoroth in the background.

I've heard someone else mention this, but when the fuck did it happen?

I find it hard to believe you wouldn't be able to notice a giant lizard guy with a gaping fire hole as a stomach standing in the background.
