Was it any good?
Its decent. Wait for the 40 extra minutes of extended cut.
>>341828384
Duncan Tolkien is a a boring old Guy Jones has posted on Twitter that so far there are no plans for a Directors/Extended Cut
Also adding another 40 minutes to this mess wont fix it
>>341828384
How accurate was it to the game, lore-wise?
>>341828574
Pretty accurate.
When you try to make a movie for everybody you make a movie that appeals to no one
>panders to diversity
>SJW media outlets still turn on you because the orc invasion reminds them of the "refugee" crisis
kek
>>341828251
>those fucking mages
They look like warcraft players, disgusting ugly as sin oilbags, rather than the characters those people would play
What the fuck were they thinking.

>>341828574
Not incredibly, they changed it to be better understood by normies.
That being said, you could take this in place of the original story and it changes very little.
It was actually a pretty decent movie, i expected it to just be a shitty cgi fest but they did a good job.The fights were the best part.
it sucked
>>341828251 (OP)
No, it was pretty bad, and that's coming from a big fan of the Warcraft games.
It wasn't abysmal, but it wasn't really okay or average either.
>>341828574
Somewhat accurate with a few retcons. Overall the story is more or less the same.
>>341828574
non accurate at all
its warcraft only in name
Stormwind doesn't even fall
Even if they wanted to make a sequel they would have to invent a completely different story
Like theres not a single thing they didnt change
>>341828251
It's not as bad as the scores say it is, but it's not good either. It's rather average and I could see why someone would rate it lower if they don't know anything about warcraft. They are some major lore fucks up like stormwind not being razed, the pacing being awful, and some of the scenes just looking odd.
5/10, watch it online and make your opinion.
Nonsensical plot and characters, awful visual effects. Just as bad as the Hobbit but gets more credit because it's a video game movie that doesn't look like italian porn from the 90s.
>>341828251
It's cool, but it got confuse with no backstory most of the time. Also the best part FUCKING Gul'dan!
Saw it tonight. I played WoW for years (stopped at the release of Cataclysm) and understood everything going on, but the movie was just bad. The only people who think it's good are fanboys excited about their videogames being on screen. The pacing is garbage. The characters get no motivation, the plot points get no setup, and the acting is pretty sub-par.
It simply does not work as a film.
>>341833756
What more backstory could you possibly need? It's the plot of WC1, the very first incarnation of warcraft. There is no backstory.

One more thing, does anybody Hellscream and Kargath were in the movie?
I was really fucking cynical about the movie during production and actually found it to be pretty gud.
Sure; it's not the most thought provoking film and it's got some really thick layers of cheese in some areas (though it's Warcraft, so that's to be expected).
It's loud, campy and colorful as fuck. It's a video game movie of all things, so the fact that it's even palatable is a gift from the heavens.
>>341828870
Agreed. I was like wtf who casted this pathetic neckbeard as Khadgar.
>>341828672
>>341829645
do you people even know the real lore?
>>341828251
its okay. people who say its bad are just trolling or massive nerds
>>341833375
>>341833692
Stormwind wasn't razed because the movie didn't cover the entire arc of the first war; it was mostly just the opening of the portal. Though based on how it ended, yeah it looks like Blizz is setting it up for a major retcon where the horde never fully invades Azeroth and Stormwind pushes back.
>>341833756
>that scene when Gul'dan ditched the robe to fight
>>341834373
>muh representashuns
>>341834674
Kargath shows up like once near the end if you know who to look for.
Hellscream shows up like twice and gets one really short line I think.

Hahahais this from the actual movie? Look at his pathetic mustache oh my god.

Here, I made this post especially for (You)

Not a masterpiece 10/10, but worth the watch.
I was also sedated by movie theater nachos so I dont know if my opinion counts.
>>341834146
Because blizzard shoved a shit load of backstory that occurred before WC actually begins, to the point where it's necessary to understand it before jumping into WC.
>>341835349
Watch your mouth! Thats the grand archmage Khadgar youre talking about!
>>341835475
But theres no backstory
they axed everything
non of the important shit is in the movie
>>341834373
>We're finally getting representation as gamers
>>341835552
When you remove the demons and shit and just say "it's fel" people aren't going to get it.
If you're a Warcraft fan with some lore knowledge, you'll like it.
If you're not, then you might not.
The start is very rushed and chaotic, I think there was a lot of cut content there. They also didn't finish the first war.
There were a fair amount of retcons, the only one that really bothered me wasLlane's assassination.
I look forward to the extended cut, I know Grom is supposed to have some lines. Really hope we get sequels, they haven't even touched on the Legion yet, except a brief cameo by Sargeras.
>>341835903
They also removed nerzul shaman stuff the shadow council and all that
They also didnt mention the reason they invaded azeroth was becasue they were constantly warring with each other
Guldan was the one to open the portal
Ogrim is a frostwolf
Like
all their """"""Backstory""""""""""
is all fucked
Theres no way of making a sequel that isnt completely made up
>>341835991
>If you're a Warcraft fan with some lore knowledge, you'll like it.
more like want to shoot up the oscars and blizz offices
>>341836187
>They also didnt mention the reason they invaded azeroth was becasue they were constantly warring with each other
In the movie, Durotan mentioned the reason they invaded Azeroth was because their home world (Draenor) was dying. But I don't recall Draenor dying in WC1. It only started to die when Ner'zhul opened a shitload of portals towards the end of WC2.
>>341836187
They can still get Nerzhul in there I think.
>>341836294
Yeah, I'm wondering if they'll still shoehorn the blood in there somehow anyways, or just make Mannoroth a prime wielder of fel magic.
A typical action movie will follow this formula. Not every movie does or even should follow it, but it's a good rule of thumb especially for a big summer blockbuster.
Warcraft spends almost no time on exposition. The characters, their motivations, and the world they inhabit is completely glossed over.
The initiating conflict is told, not shown. We hear about the orcs invading villages but the only scene where we actually see it happen comes later, and the action is off in the distance while the camera focuses on Durotan brooding.
The rising action is spotty at best, with almost no engagement between the humans and the orcs except for the first outing where they capture Garona, and the Blackrock canyon scene about 2/3rds in. The Medivh betrayal plot is set up slightly better but is also confusing and unclear.
The climactic battle scene is pretty to look at but don't really accomplish much. Durotan sacrifices himself to reveal Gul'dan's demonic nature, but nothing comes of it and the orcs fight for him anyway. The king has Garona kill him to ensure she gains respect as a peaceful voice in orc society, but all she does is let Anduin go and Gul'dan seems to still be in charge. Anduin himself arrives after the battle is over, kills only one orc of any importance (Blackhand), and then leaves with the king's body. The only plotline with any resolution is when Khadgar and Anduin kill Medivh.
Pretty much nothing comes to a satisfying conclusion. The humans save a few people but still lose, the orcs are still around and kinda evil, Anduin thinks Garona betrayed them, and Thrall floats down a river. The end.
A middle schooler could write a better screenplay.
>>341836514
they're probably going with the whole shadowmoon shit, as in the world is dying because the warlocks have already started fucking shit up.
I don't remember if shadowmoon valley was drained before or after the dimensional collapse.
>>341828251
It was gooder than good.
>>341836673
The Durotan thing sets up Orgrim to take over.
>>341836858
The movie is all setup and no payoff.
As someone who knows nothing about Warcraft
I really liked Orc Moses
And that 1.2 second scene of those hot slutty elves walking across the screen in bikini tops
>>341836931
I can agree to this.
I guess the reason I didn't mind so much was because I know more or less what comes next.
If I didn't know the lore, I likely would have not liked this movie.
>>341836514
Draenor was dying after Nerzul opened a shiton of dark portals which tore the world appart
>>341836541
>They can still get Nerzhul in there I think.
Doesn't matter if they do, nothing will make sense because they changed too much
>Yeah, I'm wondering if they'll still shoehorn the blood in there somehow anyways, or just make Mannoroth a prime wielder of fel magic.
Thats not the point of the picture
>Fel orcs are red
>non fel are green
>In the movie they are green when fell brown default
fucking shit movie
>>341836858
Ogrim backstabbed blackhand after the first failed invasion of stormwind, not only because he failed but blackhand was Guldan's puppet, ogrim hated gul dan. He usurped the control of the horde after that destroyed stormwind and kept marching north for wacraft 2 which is essentially a world war
Its fucking stupid they changed that
Tell me about Andre, Why does he put that wall?
>>341837068
Well alright then
>>341837021
>And that 1.2 second scene of those hot slutty elves walking across the screen in bikini tops
Yeah that was one of the few things the movie had going for it.
>>341828574
let's see
>stormreavers don't exist
>shadow council doesn't exist
>pretty much none of the orc clans except for the frostwolf are ever mentioned
>gul'dan is directly in command of the horde, blackhand serves no purpose at all
>orcs are all brown, only gul'dan is green
>shitty lothar+garona romance out of nowhere
>fall of stormwind doesn't exist
it shits all over the established warcraft storyline
>>341828251
Tons of plot holes that will be left empty if you don't know a thing about the lore.
Story is simplified (green mana is evil) but at the same time it feels incomplete and almost silly due to how simplified the story is. Who knows if it can be fixed if there is a sequel.
If you are a warcraft fan you may like the movie but otherwise stay away.
>>341828771
Outside humans being of all shapes and color I don't think they pandered
>>341837068
>Calling out the movie for the color of the orcs
>doesn't even know the warcraft 1 orcs were green
>doesn't know the rule is: Brown = untainted orc Green = first dose of demon blood Red = second big dose for a super charge
>>341837251
We don't know if Stormwind is getting sacked or not. There was nothing that said it wouldn't
>>341828771
Angry birds already did that.
>>341837251
>>orcs are all brown, only gul'dan is green
Objectively wrong.
>>341834965
Do YOU?
>>341837251
I think the only brown orcs were the Frost Wolves, Ogrim and Blackhand.
>>341828574
Not even close to Warcraft, they changed everything to pander to WoW-fags.
>>341837251
>>pretty much none of the orc clans except for the frostwolf are ever mentioned
literally the second thing Durotan does in the entire movie is point out other clans
Didn't the orcs drink the blood of Mannoroth BEFORE they went through the dark portal? I thought that's why in WC1 all the orcs were green. The opening scene showed all the orcs prepping to invade Azeroth were brown. Later, Gul'dan mentioned after they successfully opened the portal a second time to let the entire horde through, he would "give them the gift of the fel," which I'm assuming was the blood of Mannoroth.
It was pretty cool
I loved how the orcs looked, moved and fought in the movie
Watching Doomhammer smack shit was amazing
Sure they adjusted the lore more to fit the current WoW lore and to simplify it, but there were still some bits that only made sense if you know them yourself (why Medivh is "evil", who are the draenei, what was the deal with elves, Na'ru etc)
>>341838019
Nah, it was in Azeroth
And the "gift of the fel" was just infusing them with fel magic, it's to fit the current lore basically, since all the fel orcs in Outlands are just corrupted by fel magic and not necessarily drank any blood
>>341828251
Everything wrong with the movie was with the story.
To put it short, Warcraft 1's story is a pile of flaming dog shit and Warcraft 2/dark portal isn't any better.
The best actors in the industry and the best CG will never be able to fix that fact.
I went into it having not read any reviews hoping to be pleasantly surprised but the movie just sucked ass. 80% of the movie is shitty dialogue and exposition. The acting is half-assed and everyone looks embarrased, they should have picked actors who were willing to embrace the camp and ham it up a bit.
Visually the full-CGI scenes (i.e the orc camp scenes) looked alright, but anything with an element of live action looked tacky as shit. The battle scenes needed more gore; not in an edgy way it just felt limp without it.
The worst part was that even the battle scenes were boring. I mean it's standard for this type of movie to be poor from a plot-development perspective but if it doesn't even have good action what's the point?
I don't understand how anybody could like this movie. It retcons too much for the diehard fans, yet has nothing to set it apart from the dozens of similar films in the eyes of casual viewers.
>for azeroth
what did he mean by this?
From the view of someone who's never played a Warcraft game I'd give it a 6 out of 10.
The orc storyline was very well done. I actually gave a fuck about the main chieftain and got pretty into the conflict between the Frostwolves and Gul'Dan. The ORc parts were very pretty to look at too and the action scenes were fucking wicked.
On the other hand the entirety of the human side of the story was a total massive fucking snooze fest. Any part with only humans looked like it was shot in the fucking 80's. The camera angles were total ass and the effects were complete and utter garbage. Dungeons and Dragons from fucking 2001 had better effects than that shit.
You can literally see the divide of the budget in the final army fight with the orcs looking awesome and the humans looking like they're fighting in front of a fucking green screen.
>>341838392
They really should have scrapped the lore and done something original. The movie as it stands is complete garbage.
>>341837407
Except not
W3 retconned fel orcs to be red
When you go to outlands in w3 there are plenty of red orcs
in thralls book it says orcs shrinked and cahnged their skin color to green from red
I've never played Warcraft.
From a critical standpoint though, the romance was really fucking hamfisted.
>>341838019
Yes. Draenor was also intact (still a barren shithole, but intact) until the end of Warcraft II where Ner'zhul opened a ton of portals because the Alliance were carving their way through the last remnants of the orc army that had retreated back through the portal.
>>341838392
>Warcraft 1's story is a pile of flaming dog shit
>"evil demon-possessed monsters are coming to kill us all because one of our most powerful mages was possessed by one of the most powerful demons"
The story is simple but it works. It just wouldn't be allowed to exist at this point because it paints the orcs as vile murderousrefugees/invaders that are ruining a perfectly good world for no reason other than they can.
>Dalaran is already flying
HAH WAW
>>341838531
That's probably because they DID fight in front of a green screen. It's the same problem that happened with the Star Wars prequels, where the actors don't know what they're doing because they're actually standing there in front of a screen and being told to imagine their surroundings.
>>341838602
Which is a shame because if you watch it you can tell that they really gave it a good try.
But when you look at the story and consider the source material, you realize that it will always fall short and that is the biggest disappointing fact about the movie. It never had the chance to be great.
>>341834674
All of the warchiefs except for Ner'zhul were in the movie, which is accurate because during the events of WC1 Ner'zhul was in a coma on draenor.
>>341838837
I understand that but there are plenty of examples of that being done well. Even when the humans were just talking the acting was atrocious. Especially the supposed comic relief mage guy.
>>341833714
cute gif
>>341828251
If you go in with low expectations it's fairly entertaining action movie that remains engaging throughout and has some pretty decent fight sequences.
I would say that the two main reasons that it got trashed are because it's a video game movie (automatic -50% on RT from critics) and it doesn't go out of its way to info dump character backstories, which makes it harder for normies to fully understand.
There are some cliches that get pushed a bit too hard and some overly cheesy scenes, but on the whole it's a top quality action block buster that I would have watched over the likes of avengers 2.
>>341839078
more or less how i felt about the movie, the only thing i would say is that all of the fight scenes were pretty bland with the exception ofthe duel between durotar and gul'dan
6/10
>>341839078
>t. only watches movies for the pretty colors
>>341839078
Every fucking film that's garbage is somehow redeemed by prefacing it with "well if you just don't expect much - if you just want to see cool action sequences - if you just want to see really great visuals" fuck that. It's the same mentality that's killing videogames. We should curb our entertainment around the idea that something will be mediocre or lackluster. Surely then everything will be better for it.
I didn't think the movie was that great but the backgrounds were amazing. Goldshire inn being completely recreated was very nice, all the districts in stormwind were colored differantly just in the game and if you pay attention to the roofs you can find the stores and buildings from the game. There is even a scene where Gul'dan is talking to Mannoroth in the background.
>>341839431
>There is even a scene where Gul'dan is talking to Mannoroth in the background.
???? when
>Story is rushed and badly paced
>CGI looks good
>Mix of CGI and liveaction is disgusting to look at, pretty much Prequels tier
>Terrible acting
>Awful fighting choreography when the camera pans to show the various fights
>Bad costumes and props
>Quips in what's supposed to be a serious war-setting
>Too much focus on Garona and other drama, not the war itself
I give it a 4/10
>>341839078
Except it actually is hot garbage
The live action stuff looks fucking laughable when it's next to the CGI, and even by itself all the sets, costume designs, even the actors themselves look terrible. The acting is god awful, the character motivations for everyone save Durotan are all over the place and make basically no sense, there are no character arcs and the pace of the movie is all over the place. On top of that the story is confusing as fuck if you aren't a WoW fag
I'm sick of people going with this retarded "well if you just shut off your brain" meme. I can like simple action blockbusters, but they still have to be well made and they have to be entertaining. 80% of this fucking movie is people sitting and talking or walking and talking. It's boring as fuck and I sincerely don't know how anyone would find it enjoyable just because it was a couple of slightly less mediocre scenes
>>341834373
>We're finally getting representation as gamers
>>341828251
The orc parts were all really good, the human parts all sucked.
>>341839246
>all of the fight scenes were pretty bland
The sight of proper battles with mooks dying on either side is pretty refreshing to me, since the only blockbusters I've seen recently are cape movies. Definitely better action sequences than what I saw from the first hobbit movie or lord of the rings, for instance, though.
>>341839273
>We should curb our entertainment around the idea that something will be mediocre or lackluster.
Fucking millennials, I tell you what. Hollywood has always made summer blockbusters with iffy artistic merit and cheesy plots, I feel bad for you if you can't appreciate these sorts of film, as well as more sophisticated films.
The reason I mentioned going in with low expectations is because a whole swathe of (arguably) better hollywood action movies have come out recently, so if you go hoping for a starwars/civil war/deadpool level of quality, then you will be disappointed.
The movie was fucking garbage.
How can anyone actually like it? There will NEVER EVER be a good video game movie
>>341839963
The assassins creed movie has potential.
>>341839078
The reasons it got trashed were because most of the dialogue and interactions between the actors were bad, most of the acting was atrocious (Not all, but most), a lot of scenes were shoehorned in that seemed so out of place (Anduin+Garona romance, Anduin's son's death, Medivh's corruption, etc.), the pacing was awful, and the ending was anti-climatic. Has little to do with the fact that it's a vidya movie or lack of backstories.
>>341839963
The mortal kombat movie is pretty good.
>>341840049
People said the exact same thing about the Warcraft movie? Are You expecting it to be any different?
Lots of changes because they want to appeal to the WoW fans instead of the Warcraft fans.
>There are Draenei in the film due to World of Warcraft
>Fel Magic instead of Demon Blood
>Humans using pistols before The Second War
>Every human wants to help Garona
>Garona isn't an Orc Asssassin
>Garona only stabs Llane because he tells her to do, not because she's an Assassin sent by Gul'dan
>Retarded lovestory between Lothar and Garona for no reason
>Durotan is killed in Mak'Gora by Gul'dan instead of being exiled and fleeing to Alterac
>Blackhand defeated in Mak'Gora by Lothar instead of being betrayed by Orgrim
>Draka stabbed by a random Grunt
>Garona doesn't help kill Medivh/Sargeras
>Dalaran is flying when it shouldn't be before the assault on Northrend
>Orcs are brown due to World of Warcraft
>Thrall is turned green instead of being born that way
>Grom looks like the World of Warcraft version and not the Warcraft 3 version
>Ner'zhul is not shown in the film at all

There's a difference between something being campy and hot garbage in a charming way and something taking itself very seriously and appreciating itself as an art form and taking its subject matter to a higher level of cognizance yadda yadda yadda but it ends up being fucking ass. If Warcraft took itself as seriously as the Doom film and partook of a similar level of self wankery it would have been great. But it didn't. Warcraft was a film designed for mass appeal and intentions of creating a LotR style epic with far reaching influence.
The reason the film is critiqued as an art piece is because it stylizes itself as one. If you want to be campy action movie made for fun, then you don't shoot yourself or script yourself like Warcraft did.
>>341840049
Potential. Key word.
All vidya movies have POTENTIAL to be really good. There's so much you can do with it. And it always ends up fucking butchered.
Until you get top billing screenwriters, directors and actors working on a video game adaptation that has a lot of material to create a direction, there will NEVER EVER be a good video game movie
>>341840192
Ner'zhul was stuck on draenor during the events of the first war. Doesn't make any sense for him to be in the movie since he doesn't really become relevant until the second war.
>>341828251
Movie was 3/5. Could have been worse but could have been better if had more humor and was more lighthearted considering that's what all Blizzard stuff is. I think there was like a handful of comments that were snicker worthy and the rest they took very seriously. Didn't know most of the characters, so dont know if they're from the game or not. Felt like what LOTR would look if it was done in China by China.
>>341840192
>>Ner'zhul is not shown in the film at all
this is correct though. he wasn't part of the first war.
>>341828251
Not exactly good, but not 18% rotten tomatoes 32 meta score bad.
>>341840192
Half of those things are irrelevant/personal tastes and the other half are changes because it's a movie adaptation of a videogame.
Plus the Draenei are canon since at least Warcraft 3.
>>341840486
>>341840515
I guess I remember incorrectly about him then.
>>341828251
it was fucking garbage. what a surprise.
>>341834880
And yet he was suprisingly the one of the best actors of the human side
>End the movie in Stormwind screaming "For the Alliance!"
>2nd movie starts
>Immediately lose Stormwind and retreat to Lordaeron
They picked a terrible ending point tbqhfam, though they couldnt do a 3 hour movie.
>>341840526
critics panned the movie because it's not muh generic Tolkien fantasy.
>>341840180
Asscreed already has a very "movie" concept through the bloodline memory shit, this means it's very open and malleable.
The only core thing they need is the memory part, the assassin part and the aliens part.
Combined with a decent director it could make a decent film, probably on par with Timeline or similar film.
There is a reason game movies fail and it's typically because
>pretentious/faggot directors pick up videogame films.
>Good directors don't play or care about videogames
>Uwe Boll makes that vast majority of vidya film making it disproportionately bad
>Videogames are a terrible mode of story telling and attract failed writers, ergo bad source material
>The shitters behind the game who own the rights tend to get too involved with the film to the point where you question why you need a director
Based on his prior films Duncan has proven to be a decent director, but blizzard and metzen clearly got too involved, especially with the script.
I only say Asscreed has better potential because it can easily have a looser plot and there is less "metzen" like people on ubisoft to go in there and shove their shit tastes in, maybe.
>>341840930
No they panned it because the entire plot is trash.
>>341840780
Everyone thinks he was horrible, but he honestly wasn't. It was just a bad role for him, but he had some pretty good comedic timing, movement and expression
I thought the try-hard humans were much worse
What the hell is "Fel"?!
I've played all of Warcraft 2, half of Warcfart 3 and got to level 90 in WoW once but never have I heard "Fel" mentioned while the movie is constantly on about it and is basically based around it.
>>341828251
It was surprisingly good for a video game movie. The special effects were amazing, but the bright colors were what kind of broke immersion for me. Worth your money, a solid 7/10
>>341841320
wasn't the plot on the same level with the original WC1. You can't make the argument that the WC1 plot was any better than movie
>>341841394
so you just never read anything in those games
>>341841394
It's referring to fel orcs, those who drank demon blood from Mannoroth and became corrupted
In the movie it's some retarded voodoo magic shit, who knows
>>341841394
Fel magic is Warock/demonic magic.
Fel is the element of disorder.
>>341841438
aside from the fact that they got the entire plot wrong
>>341841394
>I've played all of Warcraft 2, half of Warcfart 3 and got to level 90 in WoW once but never have I heard "Fel"
Literally how
>>341834880
>>341835349
>>341835501
Wasn't Khadgar only in the second game? Was he a survivor of Azaroth?
>>341828251
I really enjoyed it and I'm hoping sequels get greenlit. The whole thing was too rushed though, it would've worked better with an extra half hour.
>>341841572
But that doesn't matter from a critic's point of view who has no idea what a WoW is. And yes I suck dicks from time to time, would like some?
>>341841394
In WoW lore fel is demonic magic.
In the old lore it was pure magic straight from the blood of demons that tempted mages constantly.
It was recently retconned into being disorder magic derived by sacrifice whether it be soul or blood, but it's still found in demons.
The film used fel as an easy way to not show Mannaroth feeding the orcs his blood or go through the convoluted explanation behind Medivh opening the dark portal.
>>341838701
Lion's Gate probably tried to cover all their demographics in case they couldn't make a Tides of Darkness/Beyond the Dark Portal sequel with Alleria and Turalyon.
Llane telling Garona to kill him was garbage. I'm just waiting for Pandaren to make an appearance because Orcs weren't depicted as the assholes they were in Warcraft 1/2.
>>341841745
>critics
>caring what they say
>>341841783
>The film used fel as an easy way to not show Mannaroth feeding the orcs his blood or go through the convoluted explanation behind Medivh opening the dark portal.
It wouldn't take much to show the orcs drinking Mannaroths blood and it would've made the whole thing clearer because normies could watch it and go "oh so there's this big dude who's obviously evil and the orcs drink his blood and become strong and evil too!", which is more obvious that "there's this green magic and unlike blue magic it corrupts you".
>>341842008
>I'm just waiting for Pandaren
They'll never be in a Warcraft movie and thank God for that.
No. It's generic, full of "funny quips", has awful props and a couple of cringe-worthy moments. Not even worth discussing.
I played WCII and WCIII and WoW from Beta till Burning Crusade.
I liked this movie a lot, but I wish they didn't skimp out and cut so much content. Movie would have been fantastic if it didn't seem so rushed and had more scenes, mostly the humans. Otherwise was just really enjoyable.
Also, mygirlfriendwho knows basically nothing about Warcraft really enjoyed the movie, had no problem following who was who and what was going on, and really loved the Orcs.
Shame even with China success we may not get another. We probably won't even get the extended version, oh well.
>>341837068
>Ogrim backstabbed blackhand after the first failed invasion of stormwind, not only because he failed but blackhand was Guldan's puppet, ogrim hated gul dan. He usurped the control of the horde after that destroyed stormwind and kept marching north for wacraft 2 which is essentially a world war
Wrong. He killed him because he was ordered to do so by Guldan. Blackhand was a puppet, but his reason for betraying him was because he saw and opportunity and took it. https://youtu.be/ZXiGt2PxoNg?t=16m29s
It had nothing to do with Blackhand failing, which he didn't, and everything to do with his own ambition.
>>341833756
i still cant believe Gul'dan got in a manly topless fistfight
>>341840930
The Hobbit movies didn't have the highest reviews either
>>341842741
Also for the record, I enjoyed the Warcraft movie much much much more than the Hobbit movies. My god those were bland.
>>341842031
This, it wouldn't kill them to at least show Guldan talking to mannoroth or some shit in secret.
Medivh would be impossible though, you'd have to explain that WoW Satan possessed him when he was a fetus.
>>341838681
It didn't, stop spewing lies you goddamn idiot.
Excessive fel energy turns everyone red, from Man'ari (eredar) to Fel Blood Elves.
Fel orcs have always been red, their green counterpart are just the first generation of orcs who drank the blood.
Outland orcs are all red in the current timeline.
>>341842009
critics know more than you think.
when something universally panned there's a reason behind that.
>>341836294
im still amazed but what a fucking dork Grom is. the dude is the first of his kind to take part in the demon bullshit that fucks over not only his species but also his planet ...and he just fucking does again. who the fuck drinks demon blood twice?
>>341842943
because orcs are not a noble, wise people. they're power-hungry warriors who will do anything to get stronger.
>>341838185
the Orcs are basically the whole reason to see that movie they were just plan fun to watch. can't wait to see tauren and trolls and so on in later movies
>>341838392
>Everything wrong with the movie was with the story.
>To put it short, Warcraft 1's story is a pile of flaming dog shit and Warcraft 2/dark portal isn't any better.

>>341838924
Actually Ner'Zhul was there, you could recognize him by the face paint.
Like the other warchiefs, it was a very short cameo though.
>>341838681
the books say brown, it references how they were the color of the earth and yadda yadda shaman stuff
>>341842943
Orcs know only war.
It wasn't until Thrall that the "orcs" learned their mistakes and started cohexisting peacefully with the environment they were given.
Until of course a retarded old-style warmongering brown orc from the outlands who never ever fucking listened to Thrall and his teachings got placed in charge of the Horde and turned it into the old supreme horde militarized organization that it was in the first two wars.

When you've got a super pissed off centaur demi-god with tree branches for hair ready to fuck you and all your species off the planet because you cut down a few trees, you too would consider drinking demon blood if it meant survival.
>>341834373
>finally getting representation as gamers

Yeah. We cant afford to have them get ruined by the awfulness of the movies.

They just retconnected everything to WoD.

ya but when you burn your hand you learn not to touch the burner again. Grom is dumb as a brick

This is yes
>>341843491
Total amount so far is 300 mill, I've read that it would take about 500 mill for it to make enough profit to warrant a sequel.
But maybe China will front the bill, since it smashed their box offices.
>>341843576
as are all orcs.
see: garrosh hellscream.
>>341843393
kek, whatever you say furfag.
>>341843571
If you didn't get it, he was the "player" of the movie.
He even was fucking confirmed by the director that he "leveled up" (even made the noise) after saving Medivh and purging the Fel out of himself.
It's no wonder he's a chunky neckbeard.I liked him.
>>341843296
Grom brought the whole scenario on himself. thrall tells him not to cause trouble and he starts a race war and then he starts to get his ass beat almost instantly
>>341843508
leave him alone, he's an idiot and an antiwow drone
>>341828251
yes
>>341843515
Haven't played WoW since Burning Crusade. What did WoD do to the lore? Besides all the normal fuckery of "now you kill ILLIDIN. now you kill ARTHAS." etc
>>341843189
I don't understand why they had to do the first one
>>341843261
Garrosh was a fine leader befitting the title of war-chief until Metzen decided that they needed a raid boss and that it was going to be Garrosh so they 180'd his charachter
>>341843631
garrosh is a bad example just because he's grom's kid. the stick doesn't fall to far from the tree and whatnot
I thought the movie was a 7/10. Yes Im a WoW fanboy but it was freaking awesome to watch the mage spells and their eyes going all blue while casting spells
The only bad CGI was the dwarfs(why not hire real dwarfs?)
>>341840930
I LOVE KATIA
>>341843491
The movie grossed $300 million worldwide on a budget of $160 million, mostly thanks to China. It flopped hard in North America only netting about $25 million. Between marketing and advertising, they need far more than $300 million before even considering greenlighting a sequel.
>>341843784
The same goes for draenei as well. I think the minor exposure would be broken.
>>341843832

The entirety of WoD is an alternate universe that poses the concept of had the orcs never drank the blood of Mannoroth in the first place which dramatically changes the plot of WC1 forward.
>>341843806
Whitewashed orcs. Again. Reminding us that they're incapable of being wrong.
Mainly because drooling underadged edgelords like >>341842157 can't comprehend anything that doesn't scream blood and thunder over and over.
>>341844168
>muh pandas
>>341844168
Fuck off furfag.
I'd say it was a meh movie. Its the type of movie that if I was bored on a Saturday night and it came on TV I would watch for shits and giggles. I regret paying too see it though and I feel like my money could have been better spent .
I know there are people who lived the effects but I personally thought they were cheesy as fuck and almost cringe worthy at times. The story was also all over the fucking place to the point where I wouldn't take people who never played the game too see it because I don't think they'd know whats going on.
I'd rate it a 5/10 maybe.
>>341844546
The orcs were realer than real though
>>341843784
>>341843883
If draenei are added to the chart, it should be noted that they become huge as fuck. Or as least some of them do.
It was good. Flawed in many ways but way betetr than it deserved to be and I'm a cynic when it comes to anything Warcraft related.
More backstory was needed for some characters and some characters and scenes needed to be cut completely.
Give more time with the Orcs on Draenor, more build up with Lothar and Azeroth as a whole, get rid of the Lothars son, Alodi cube and forced Garona love plot completely and it would have been far better.
7/10
I consider this movie to be a huge retard check and I cant believe how some people say they werent able to keep up. Its the most basic shit and anyone who couldnt follow were probably too busy thinking about how they were going to go on the internet and shit on it throughout the movie.
>>341843846
Indeed, he wasn't actually a bad leader, but he definitely jumped the shark when he went "muh true horde" and started holocausting the trolls and everything that isn't a buff red orc.
Thank you based China for all but confirming a sequel for this
>Warcraft II opens with Stormwind getting destroyed and we get to see the Lordaeron and the Alliance getting formed for realz on the big screen
shits gonna be so cash
>>341843883
>>341845036
Draenei are different, nobody knows what the Man'ari looked like when they weren't the red fel-fueled monstrosities we see now in the burning legion (Eredars like archimonde and kil'jaeden) or the light-cucked blue-idiots like Velen and his spawn of light-sucking dicks.
The Broken are just mindless Draenei who became feral after Draenor got royally fucked in the butt by Gul'dan and his mob of "mountain dew vapor wielding" faggots, and thus they became infused with light-levels of fel energy like pretty much everything in the outlands.
>>341846017
Lordaeron was already a human kingdom back then, ruled by the Arathorian empire.
It was the last to fall.
>>341846220
I didnt imply it wasnt already a kingdom
>>341828251
No, entertaining but shit, horde makes the movie bearable but that's all.
>>341845587
wtf was that alodi cube shit anyway?
they had the head people at blizz helping them write this movie and I cant believe they let that shit pass
everyone I know both warcraft fans and not all agree that whole scene was just confusing and crazy out of place
Gonna remind y'all that it's an adaptation. It ain't gonna be exactly like the games. If they feel a need to change things they can throw the caverns of time into the story to retcon within the story itself. Assuming they get to make another movie.
Am I the only one who found Anduins character weird? I didn't remember him being a too cool for you edgelord
also the kinda ruined ogrim
>>341846479
I imagine they didn't cut it straight up because Glenn Close graced the movie with her presence and they didnt want to offend her or some bullshit like that.
They should have just made it Aegwynn and had her explain why Medivh was corrupted so people would have been less confused overall.
It was the worst movie that I've seen this year. Bad acting, bad pacing, you barely get to know the characters, CGI looks like shit. Jones must love big green cock because human side of the story is awfoul compared to muh orcs plot. I've seen it last week and I can't think of one good or memorable scene.

Put that at the start of your opinions so I can stop reading earlier
>>341847036
Are you serious? Orcs looked decent, everything else gave me SW prequels vibe. This movie will age like milk.
>>341833756
Gul'dan was one of the few redeeming characters for me. I love how he never fucks around or gloats or falls into the usual villain traps. He was all business, all the time.

it doesn't matter because nobody on /v/ or /tv/ supports it. I bet like 1 % of the people here actually paid money to see it. Oh also, the opinions here don't matter.
after reading this thread its clear only about 10% of people have read the books
>>341846927
thats because the humans story has always been shit compared to the orcs
>>341848997
I've read a few, mostly the WoW-era ones though.
Yes. Loved it.
No. Hated it.
>>341846479
Kinda confused by that myself but it looked like it was something connected with the Na'ru to tie in BC and draenei lore into this?
I honestly just thought it was a Na'ru changing form for Khadgar

>Garona/Anduin Lothar romance
>Anduin Lothar is part of the team that kills Mediev (I think that's a retcon? Or is it WC2/3 that changes it to just a captain?)
>Ragnar Lothbrok has taken the place of Anduin Lothar.
And dozens more that I can't think of because it's been ages since I went over Warcraft 1 or played WC2. They also really dropped the ball on potential sequels by completely removing the demon/Sargeras stuff from it (sure, they mentioned "demon" somewhere but nowhere in context to how the demons are actually involved). There is no overarching enemy for people to care about now, hoping to see beaten in subsequent films. It's just all "Gul'dan and his evil, evil Fel."
That's not to say it's all bad though. Turning Anduin into Ragnar is its greatest saving grace, and the CG orcs look great - much better than the live action cast. I'd say it's worth the watch, but it's nothing to write home about.
>>341828251
I liked the orcs a lot, everything with Humans was shit, I giggled at their costumed. Looked like plastic child toy's (because they were)
Somewhat better than I expected, I was pretty high when watching it though, inb4 LMAO weed.
Lots of retcons, more or less the same story though.

No, in TBC they changed their model to make them fit as a playable race, that doesn't mean they didn't exist before.
>>341852425
I think the Karazhan mission in WC was done by a troop of regular soldiers. Lothar had to be rescued from ogres in Deadmines.
It felt like Travis never quite got out of the Ragnar role, but he certainly wasn't bad. But in the age he is, he must have had Callan when he was 10 or something.
>>341843846
Garrosh as warchief was entirely the product of Kosak
From him becoming warchief, to him dying as a raid boss, all Kosak
Metzen had made mistakes, big ones, but do not blame him for Kosak's mistakes, Kosak shouldn't be able to dodge the blame
>>341828251
It was a shit movie, and that RT score is pretty spot on.
However, I still enjoyed it for the Orcs. Thought it was cool to see them act and see their internal conflicts. The humans were pretty boring, everything about Medivh was shit too.
Also
>that last scene at the portal
>that duel
Hahahaha
>>341853206
I'd say Callen was played by an actor who was too old, rather than Anduin being played by an actor too young
Callen should have been 15/16, but looked 24/25

My best friend watched it and told me it was really entertaining.
From what I get from the thread it alters several events but it kinda is a decent action movie?
>>341854317
modern day people who play WoW can't be classified as WoW players any more, you need to have a mental capacity for that
>>341828251
i didnt expect much after hearing so much bad
but it was a great movie i had just a good time with it, there was a lot of action, some mage stuff, demon shit, cool effects, i just had a good time
>>341854524
Regardless of the game being shit/oversimplified, if you don't play it right now you are an ex-WoW player, it's just a matter of terminology :^)
Good and ending might be better if they let stormwind destroy.
>>341854723
Actually, right now it's wow" not wow. If we use the accurate terms you're a "wow"-player now.

Yeah, that was back when it opened in China, thinking that box office would mantain itself, but it has had one of the biggest box office drops in history there.
BvS 2.0, they went in for the hype, abismal word of mouth started spreading, and it killed it's earnings, not to mention the massive flop that it was domestically, where it's not even going to reach 40 million on a 160 million budget, and worldwide it's going to make less than Prince of Persia, not to mention how hard it was critically panned and how the two most important markets dropped it, or never gave it much money in the first place.
Now you have Duncan is in full damage control mode begging people to watch the movie on a stickied tweet.

Everyone markets their own movie, whether it's done well or badly. That's completely normal, not DAMAGE CONTROL. That tweet is innocuous as fuck.
The fact that this movie is flopping is terrible news
I would rather we get less over-saturation of super hero movies, not more, but if no other big budget action movie with CGI out the wazoo can pierce the box office, we're just going to get more and more shitty movies like Batman v Superman
>>341860926
>it was projected to make 5 times less than it's budget domestically
So they were already accepting it was a flop?

Yeah, let's replace shitty movies like Batman v Superman with shitty AND cheap-looking movies like Warcraft.
>>341839608
+Awesome orks
-Awful actors
+awesome VFX
-awful dialogues
+Awesome Gul'dan
-terrible Medivh
+Superb wide panoramic shots
-Terrible montage
The whole movie is like a rollercoaster of emotions. There is alot of cool shit but also alot of things that disappoint you.
7\10 as an old Warcraft fan but this movie desers something like 5-6\10 if you are not into Warcraft.
>>341861132

Outside of orcs it's absolutely fucking horrible.

Shame the rest of the flick looks like a TV show.

sequel is as good as confirmed, dude
>>341861279
Nah magic was preddy good except maybe wall of lightning.
>>341861279
Magic is done pretty well imo
>>341861279
Why isn't it a tv show?
Warcraft would work really well as a tv show, especially if they ever get up to WC3

What is wrong with that tweet?

Yeah, back when people thought it would make bank on China when they have already dropped the movie.
They are going to grab the cash and run.
>>341861374
Damage control tweet once he saw how horrible the USA box office was.
>>341861370
are you from 1999? tv show cinematography has been good for a pretty long time now

>prestige dramas everywhere
>cinematographers moving between tv and movies
Yeah, a pretty long time. Don't be posting pepes when you have no clue what you're talking about.
I went in with absolutely dismal expectations and came out pleasantly surprised.
It wasn't a good movie in any technical sense, but it was really entertaining, especially if you like orcs or warcraft.
All the scenes with the orcs were just fantastic, and Durotan's fight with Gul'Dan was great.
Also ben foster has a sexy voice
I've seen it twice now, and really enjoy just looking at the orcs in the background just to see who I can recognize
The most obvious ones are Grommosh and Kargath bladefist
>>341861849
I recognized those skull dudes in a few scenes chilling out, forget what their clan was called but it was neat
>>341861759
>tv directors becoming movie directors and vice versa constantly
>cinematographers moving between tv and movies
And that's the reason we have movies that look like TV shows.
Shame there's no TV show that looks like a movie.
>>341861516
Yeah, right after he saw how bad it's doing everywhere and how the only market that was giving them money dropped the movie.
>>341828251
I really liked it except
>durotans face looks way too human like
>everything about garona
Rest was great
>>341828251
Horrible, shilled to death videogame movie.
Saw it with gf and it was pretty bad. Not worth the money. It made her play wow for a few days, that's about it

>>341861978
There's plenty of TV shows shot like movies, lately. It's not a one-way street either, you have the likes of Fincher, Fukunaga, Soderbergh, Scorsese, Campion, and the like doing TV shows.
There's a reason the last 6 or so years have been called the new Golden Age of Television, there's a shitton of great stuff out there thanks to the crazy competition.
9/10 - it's ok.
>>341862228

these guys look pretty baller
As someone who only played WC3, WC3: TFT, and WoW up until Burning Crusade...
Can someone give me some deep brief on WC1 and 2 on the plot? I'll be honest, I didn't even know Medivh was from the earlier installments until I read about it in a wiki a few years after playing WC3.

Don't pretend True Detective wasn't a fucking gorgeous looking show, I'm just grabbing random screencaps from saved episode of stuff here. And no, GoT isn't a "great" show. That's like saying Avengers is a "great" movie.
>>341862292
GoT isn't shot like a movie.
>>341862518
How do they film these scenes where the camera looks into a mirror?
They just CGI the camera out?
>>341862430
They are! You should try World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor(tm) if you want to see them in action! ;)
>>341862592
Could be a one-way mirror
>>341862430
yeah they are epic as f*ck xD
>>341862595
shut up bitch
>>341862689
shut up bitch
>>341862595
What? They aren't in WoD, only Durotan is in WoD, the rest die far too quickly to pretend that they're actually "In WoD"
If you want to see them in action, play Warcraft 2: The Tides of Darkness, a far better game
>>341828251
3/5. Human side was cut and had no emotions. Orcs were top tier.
I can't tell if the movie is doing well enough or not, since I seem to only read either
>Blizzard is the worst fucking company ever, the warcraft movie is worth than cancer and it made a collective 5 dollars worldwide. I hope blizzard and everyone that has ever worked there dies.
or
>The warcraft movie is amazing, at the very least a 9.99/10 and made trillions of dollars in Somalia alone! Blizzard confirmed the next 20 movies, trust me, I'm Chris Metzens dog.
>>341862982
What? You are telling me you didn't like the epic and intense fight with Kargath Bladefist? Or the deep and emotional character development of Grommash Hellscream? You must be trolling.
>>341862982
Blackhand was pretty kick-ass.
The mythic fight was fucking amazing, one of the best wow fights out there.
>>341863154
It's a pretty bad movie to be honest, but it's entertaining enough.
It's just a shitty popcorn flick.
>>341861565
lol i thought it was because somebody felled all the trees and only the big ones were left so the local tree hugger elves got mad or something and evolved into those monster things

This mavie (movie) is FUCKING epic!!!!!!
Watched it with my fucking friends and they fucking loved it!!!!!
God damn what a movie!!!!!!!!
>>341863337
oh, I saw the movie and enjoyed it for what it's worth, but I can't tell if the movie did well enough getting it's money back or not.
Did they break even? Or are they in the red? I keep reading conflicting things.
>>341843806
they fucked up thralls face. he looks like a retard now
>>341863529
I heard they did amazingly well in China but kinda flopped in the US i think
>>341863679
No he doesn't, wtf
>>341863679
not to mention he went from being a warrior shaman to being some hippy fuck
they really should have killed him off in the siege of orgrimmar patch or something
>>341834373
>so many people fall for the bait
its a fresh pasta can't blame them.
My friends enjoyed it
I certainly didn't. What the fuck. Atleast try to stay a little more true to the actual game
>>341846220
I think hes talking about the alliance with dwarfs and other shit.
The human side was completely awful, acting, characters, story, etc.
Orcs were pretty good though.
>>341837251
The "I didn't see the movie", the post
>>341861849
I'm with you here. I went in expecting it to be completely raping the lore but I was pleasantly suprised, couple big things bothered me like the demon blood/fel thing and stormwind not falling.
And then there are actually some changes that I thought were better especially since its a movie not a strategy game.
CGI was better than I expected along with the human/cgi interactions. Looked abyssmal in the trailers but didn't even notice while watching the movie.
Though the plasticy armor of Loathar bothered me a bit.
Really enjoyed some details in the movie that I didn't expect to be there.
Pleasantly suprised /10
Best video game movie I have seen /10
>>341842008
You can't just post that crop without linking a source m8
>>341864127
>best videogame movie
>not Prince of Persia
It even has based Jake Gyllenhaal, it was entertaining plus it had an actually talented actor in it.
I have never played a warcraft game. I liked it. It was interesting, fun, and made me want to go deeper into the lore. They were handing out full copies of WoW out with every ticket too. I want to go and play the original warcraft now so I think their marketing worked.
>>341838185
My friends and I were shitting all over this movie, but watching Doomhammer (Orc or weapon, you choose) hit someone was always satisfying.
Average at it's best, painful and cringeworthy to watch at it's worst.
Wouldn't recommend it to anyone aside from someone who just likes laughing at movies.
>>341864127
The main thing that bothered me was everything garona being totally changed for the sake of moviie cliches and how it can't tie into WC2 without retconning a fuckload of stuff.
>asian high elf
JUST
>>341864620
>It even has based Jake Gyllenhaal, it was entertaining plus it had an actually talented actor in it.
Didn't like it, felt pretty medicore. Also It raped everything the original creator of prince of persia wanted to be the movie like.
>>341865107
We will see if we ever get a WC2 movie. They will probably change a lot of how the plot goes in that too for the sake of the movie.
>>341865763
I think the plot of Warcraft 2 would work really well coming off of this movie
Especially the whole Alterac business
>>341865763
Feels bad, wish they would just 100% CGI everything so the humans feel warcrafty instead of out of place.
>>341865763
>they will change Arthas' story if that movie happens and make it shit
mark my fucking words, once metzen gets his corrosive talons on anything, the bad writing will erode through the entire thing
>>341866075
I will never understand why Metzen gets all the writing hate when the majority of offensively bad writing in Warcraft came from other writers
>>341866347
thrall is one of the shining examples of bad writing, and he's metzen's baby.
>>341863154
it's bombing in the us and breaking records in china. worldwide its doing so-so, but given the ip and budget it should by all rights be making twice as much money as it is now.
closest comparison is pacific rim, which got a sequel

>ben kingsley just there for the free check
>set pieces and time of day jumps more often than an episode of Spiderman on fast forward
The movie was shit, I'm sorry. Ass Creed will be shit too.

why would the ip help? It's a video game movie. Video game movies have an awful reputation

>>341867176
desu they could have just made a slightly diagonal sword and went full star wars poster with it, feels really lazy.
>>341828251
its a great movie if you like sweaty orcs bashing things, but the rest of the movie is irredeemable garbage. went in with low expectations, and it managed to still disappoint.
it wants to be taken seriously but then commits some of the most egregious story and pacing crimes ive ever seen. its a handful of story arcs that bumble along and then go nowhere. for fans of the lore, changes just enough to make the outside knowledge unreliable. for the uninitiated the plot can only be understood by identifying which basic fantasy trope each character is supposed to be, rather than the action on the screen.
easily one of the worst movies ive seen. 3/10, its the best i can do
>>341835401
How fucking fat are you dude?

How did they open the portal again after Medivh got killed?

Not at all.
>Doomhammer is part of the Frostwolves
>Frostwolves were part of the Horde and not told to fuck off as soon as they crossed the portal
>Orcs were corrupted by Gul'dan's fel magic, not demon blood
>Thrall was stillborn due to the portal, saved and made green by Gul'dan
>No shadowmoon or Ner'zhul
>Gul'dan is in-charge, not Blackhand although he does manipulate Blackhand later in the movie with fel magic, though that should have been done at the beginning as Gul'dan manipulates and puts Blackhand in-charge in the game
>King llane asks Garona to kill him so Blackhand doesn't have the honor and Garona can be a hero among-st the orcs
>Doomhammer is called the betrayer because he betrays the Frostwolves
>All the clans turn against the Frostwolves instead of each other
>Durotan and Draka are killed separately, Draka after she sends Thrall down the river like moses and Durotan in Mak'gora against Gul'dan who uses fel magic, instead of being assassinated by Rend and Maim Blackhand
>Lothar defeats Blackhand in Mok'gora instead of Doomhammer
>Stormwind still stands
>Medivh implies he is Garona's father
>Dalaran is floating, when that doesn't happen until WotLK
>No undead of any kind, there were skeletons in WC1
>No necrolytes or other orc warlocks
I dunno, it's the movie universe and movies always change shit. But I can't imagine how the story is going to go with all these changes.
>>341843869
I don't see how it won't be greenlit, Michael Bay movies always get sequels.
I went in with no expectations and found it to be pretty good.
I liked it better than the last Hobbit movie. Gul'Dan's scenes were easily the best part of the movie. The pacing is the movie's biggest problem. Scenes just randomly jump from one to the next with no indication of time, such as Garona magically learning the human language because the movie forgets to tell the audience that the Orcs have been on Azeroth for a few months.
Just saw it. Acting was absolutely horrible. Khadgar was ok, but the rest were awful.
I can see why people who aren't familiar with the story would feel completely lost. There's no real attempt to explain anything, and a lot of the time things seem to only be there as a pointless shoutout to the game. The King hanging out in Goldshire for example seemed to be there for not other reason than having Goldshire in the film.
Garona's teeth were weird. A lot of people say they make her hard to understand, but I didn't find that was the case at all. I could very clearly hear her and my hearing is generally shit. They looked so bad though. There were so many times when she opened her mouth and you could see how poorly they'd been placed in there.
Gul'dan was great. Easily the highlight of the movie and worth seeing just for him.
>>341828251
It wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either. It was very lukewarm and I think that was why it's panned so hard here in the west. There's no humor and it's very fast paced and serious while expecting the viewer to understand and know everything the characters are talking about.
It's not good for outsiders of the franchise, and it's not good for fans of the franchise because of all the changes. But ironically, the CGI Orcs had more character and depth than the real life human actors. Holy shit they were awful.
>>341828251
Yeah me and my friends all loved it.
>>341869139
>Gul'dan was great. Easily the highlight of the movie and worth seeing just for him.
True dat. The guy who played Gul'Dan stole the show, his voice was so awesome.
>>341869139
>"She begs you to spare the life of her son"
>"I need him. I need all of them."
>>341828574
>No Mannoroth's blood
>The "fel"
>mum walk in when gul'dan drains the deer and breathes like into the blue baby thrall.
>sits down and watches the rest of of movie without asking dumb questions
>raises eye brows at the fem orc but that was it
I am so proud of my mum lads,she basically came away from the experience thinking Gul'dan was like a midwife for the horde so no matter what else he did that did not matter to a mother.
Gul'dan has milf fans...weird times.
>we dont know if stormwind is being sacked or not
Llane DIED in the fall for stormwind not at the portal. They just changed it because normies dont want to see a movie where the good guys lose, when by all accounts they did.
>>341869305
>dat scene where he went shirtless for the mak'gora and he was beefy as shit, with bone arms sticking out his back
>>341828251
I've seen movies less entertaining and more offensively badly made.
Take that as you may.
>>341866943
because of the sheer number of tv and movie choices available to people now having a name people recognize, even if they've never played the game and have little understanding of the source material, is huge. having a devoted fanbase that can spread word of mouth interest is also big.
>>341867176

I like how his voice wasn't especially evil. He sounds sort of tired, but determined in everything he does.
>>341868849
you forgot Khadgar didn't get cursed with old age
>>341829645
This is pretty much my opinion, although I think some of the lore changes, while they made with normie accessibility/movie-only continuity in mind, were pretty stupid.Medivh implied to be Garona's father was the worst offense imo.The stuff with clan composition or the manner of Durotan/Draka dying wasn't awful in comparison.
>>341870296
I'm guessing every crosswalk had very specific burnouts across them to deface the symbol of pride.
dunno what's more pathetic, the city for spending that much to make such eyesores, or the asshole who was so offended he had to deface every one.
>>341870631
His charisma is shown, which is great. You can understand why the Horde follows him
I'd definitely say he was the best portrayed character in the movie
>>341868849
It would be impossible to portray all of that and still make it have sense for normies.
>>341870773
>Not defacing libshit propaganda for the lulz
>MUH RAZING OF STORMWIND
>>341870934
are you 12?
>>341868849
Stormwind still stand, but I imagine if there is a sequel it will start with Stormwind falling.
Remember, Stormwind falling only becomes important in Warcraft 2, and a downer ending would have sort of ruined the movie.
Also, I actually quite like the corruption coming through Gul'dan instead of from drinking demon blood, especially how it's used across the movie as the Horde slowly becomes more green and less brown, up until the very end when the only brown orc left is Orgrim
>>341871018
I bet you're fun at parties
>>341870640
Yeah, I don't know why they changed that other than to keep the same actor. Maybe the curse is really slow or something?
>>341828251
Why did WarCraft need a movie?
>>341871674
Same reason every other franchise needs a movie. Merchandising.
did'ey fug?
>>341828574
Breddy aggurate. The most notable thing is that the designs were barely changed at all. They didn't Hollywood re-imagine shit. It looks like Warcraft the game
>>341871898
>asking if Ragnar mother fucking Lothbrook plowed some bitch
Your damn right he did
>>341871898
No. Garona tries to kiss him when he's drunk and crying about his son but he doesn't and just kind of holds his face close to her in the most spaghetti inducing scene ever.
>>341871898
Garona was confirmed to be the Universes bicycle. Brutally raped by orcs for years and wanted by every human that met her.
>>341871674
What else is left. WoW doesn't need a new expansion. Maybe they'll bring back Warcraft... They won't through
>>341872191
Do you think orcs have giant dicks or are they like gorillas with relatively small penors.
As a warcraft fan, i enjoyed this movie a lot and so did mygirlfriend.
It got slow during a few of the human segments. Fuck 4chan, just watch it and see for yourself
>>341872383
I like to imagine they have small dicks which causes them to get really angry and violent in bed
>>341828251
decent
lorewise : what the fuck did you do to the lore you fuckers !
>>341871993
>It looks like Warcraft the game
Orcs looked great, I really loved the scenes where they smashed the shit out of things with brute force.
Humans looked absolutely silly, I get the warcraft aesthetic but a lot of the armor looked very plastic (because they were). King Llane's crown looked like a tiara from Disney world or some shit.
I'd also imagine people who are not familiar with the world are going to dislike the movie a lot more. They really explain nothing about the world, they'll have no idea about the relations of the places to each other.
Wasn't this, like, 6 years too late?
>>341872748
also : llane is supposed to be the most charismatic leader out of all 7 kingdoms yet they choose a guy who look like a freaking victim
>>341872906
His wife was more charasmatic than him
>>341828251
Nope.
It's just like every other video game movie but with a bigger budget.
Also pure sequel bait with no real resolution but by the end most people realized it was a hopeless mess so didn't care.
>>341873061
Is there any way they could give it a good conclusion though given that in-universe orcs are still fucking things up 30 years later?
>>341873061
>the beginning
>not expecting the ending to open for a sequel
>>341873338
I pray to god that the sequel opens with Stormwind being razed
I also pray that it has a lot of Zul'jin
>>341835991
>They dared to imply and avatar for sargeras.
And no it IS diffrent that implying an avatar in books, that was a step too far imo.
>>341873338
They left you hanging.
They should have dedicated some time to the forming of the Alliance instead of having characters just shouting "FOR THE ALLIANCE" and then cutting to black during a funeral.
The ending is just trash and doesn't do anything to conclude what we just saw or even setup what we're about to see.
>>341871898
since you have a SS...
does that mean there is a good quality version...?
>>341873478
dis
was auh land
>>341873770
when he shouted for the alliance i was like : really ? your fucking alliance is supposed to be born when your city is on fire
hell im surprised that stormwind hasnt been attacked in the movie considering we saw the orcs attack the redrige mountains and westfall
>>341874013
I think the movie forms the Alliance when the human nations came together.
>>341843296
>hey we have this demigod that's mad because we cutted some trees

>garona is a slave and not an assasin
>stormwind doesnt even fall
>Orgrim plays a minor role, he isn't even leader of his own clan but a Frostwolf under Durotar leadership
>Blackhand dies at the hands of lothar instead of Orgrim
>No mention of other warlocks, not even foreshadowing Ner'Thul who is probably even more important than Gul'Dan later in the story.
The movie was complete crap lorewise, but at least wasn't as bad as most capeshit/videoshit movies.
Special effects were really good and I hadfunwatching it.
>>341874315
and years later :
>i need to go attend the spirits
>i could make this noble blood elf that wish peace warchief or my old tauren friend or my loyal vol'jin
>nahh instead ill put the son of my retarded friend that started war in charge , no way he gonna turn out like his father right ?
>>341874497
Orgrim was never the leader of his clan though.
Not until he backstabbed Blackhand.
>>341874497
the thing is that we saw the other warlords at some points : grom , killrog and kargath
and yet they are given only small screentime

I don't really have a problem with Garona
Mostly because Blizzard has a serious problem with all their characters being mind controlled or corrupted, and by having Garona as a slave instead of a mind controlled assassin, that's one of those all-too-common cases of mind control/corruption removed.
Also, why should they mention Mannoroth? The only orcs who knew of Mannoroth were the shadow council
Now, granted, there should have been more of a shadow council instead of just Gul'dan, but I don't see the lack of mention of Mannoroth as a problem
To this day I still hold hope that someday they'll make a W4 and will retcon everything WoW did as if it never happened.
It'll probably be shit too but they can't fuck it up any worse.
i gotta say tought i love more the way gul'dan look in the movie than ingame

>That human soldier getting jiggy with it
>>341875284
The orc on the right doing the Orc racial dance
>>341875284
I saw the movie yesterday, that scene and the entire movie didn't look nearly as this bad. These are probably using pre-release footage or something
>>341870640
Wasn't that first in warcraft 2?
>>341875284
>the delayed snaping
>the two soldiers to the right who do nothing
>the small orc on the left casually strolling
>the orc on the far right literally just casually jogging past EVERYTHING
>that orc in the back banging his chest for no reason.
>the orc who looks down at the guy he punches
>THE GUY ISN'T THERE
BRAVO
>>341875284
orc punches a human then stops doing anything
orcs behind the punching orc and choking orc are just flexing
footman has parkinsons
neck crush just looks wrong
>>341875284
>help me you fucking fag !
>nope ! /dance
>orc : /dance
>fucking hell i hate you all
seem like your average pvp game for me
>>341875472
The only thing I didn't like was his eyes.
>>341875915
nope first war when they kill medivh
>>341876096
i actually kinda liked the green eyes for him , it make him more warlock looking like this fucker is plotting so much with the burning legion that he is corrupted to the core
>>341876136
Of course. I begun mixing it up with the closing of the portals for some reason
He grows old when he kills Medivh
who/what was aloris?
Uther
>>341876865
its supposed to be alodi the first tirrisfall guardian but in the movie they made him into an old woman spirit for some reason
>>341842008
FUCKING
SAUCE
>She even has the Asian dyed bangs
>>341877013
I wish when the movie makes it to 3 they have that Glad You Can Make It Uther scene
it'll be like a /v/ version of big guy for you scene
>>341877196
and then i want to see made into a sad moment uther realising theres no hope saving arthas when he come take his father ashes
>>341875284
I didn't realize the orc on the right was dancing too.
>>341877303
There's a lot that could be done with Warcraft 3
Probably too much, it would take 3 movies to get through it all
It would definitely work better as a tv series
>>341841043
>aliens
i wish people would stop saying that. They're from earth. It's an ancient race, not aliens.
>Gul'dan incapable of controlling the orcs and becoming a saturday morning cartoon villain "OBEY ME"
>Garona choosing to assassinate Llane instead of getting mindfucked into doing it
>Gul'dan actually fighting and killing Durotan in front of everyone
>Doomhammer not killing Blackhand
>No allahu akbar Stormwind
>Llane is a complete pussy and looks at Lothar for help constantly
>Lothars son plotline
>Medivh coming back to Stormwind and getting Lothar thrown in jail for obviously pointing out Medivh is evil
I missed like the first 20 minutes but I don't recall Sageras ever being mentioned either, which I thought would be a real simple dream sequence to have towards the beginning with Gul'dan.
>The shitty CGI infernal at the end
I don't think they could afford the green fire.
I just don't understand why the Durotan and King Llane storylines even had to meet. If they had been kept separate it would've saved like 40 minutes of movie time with no damage to the overall plot.
>>341880886
I'm not sure your first point holds.
The whole thing with the orcs in Warcraft 2 is about the conflict of interest between Orgrim and the shadow council. Gul'dan could never control the orcs directly.
>>341828251
>-
Plot twists you could see from miles away
Really awkward segues (like from talking about sex to talking about CHILDHOOD SUFFERING)
Draenei look gross and unwaifuable
Blackhand constantly waffles in the movie. That's his defining trait
The King's strategy involving Garona was pretty dumb and convoluted
Babby Thrall
>+
Orc girls are cute. CUTE!
All the girls are generally cute
Action scenes aren't too bad
Based Gul'dan
>not mentioning the asian Night Elves
The other races weren't even involved in the first war I thought, yet it showed Dwarves n shit at a council meeting in SW.
And I thought NEs didn't ally themselves with anyone until WC3.
>>341882079
They didn't seem to get along too well in that council meeting. Pretty sure it was meant to show that humans were more or less on their own, and the dwarves would only loan them some guns, while still establishing the fact that there ARE other races, setting up for it to be eased in for a second movie. But that's about it.
Also
>Anyone complaining about baby Thrall ever
Just get the fuck out, holy shit.
>People believe this is the end, this is all the money it's going to make
Reminder that Blu-RayDigital//DVD (lol) sales play a big factor as well. There are several movies that did terrible in theaters, but made bank on sales, that got picked up for sequels as a result. Generally CGI spectacles like this do tend to play well on Blu-Ray as well.

The artist is Ellowas, he nuked his tumblr when Blizzard started cracking down on Overwatch porn, but the uncropped version should be up on his mega.

I watched it because my friends invited me and I don't know shit about Warcraft, never played a single game
Can I get into it or is it too late? I liked how campy everything was, it was so generic that it was actually unique
>>341837251
Nigga wat?
Have you seen it?
99% of the orcs are green
Also every pther clan is mentioned.
They even show Grommash even if they don't mention him.
Any lorefag knows why Khadgar transforms fel into holy?
Does it make sense lorewise or they just pulled it out of their ass?
Next movie will be priest paladin focused for sure, who would you cast as Uther?
Here's a (You)
>>341879182
The game's cutscenes are about 4 hours if I remeber correctly.
Cant tell if Frozen Throne counts or not.
