I've never played this game and have no interest in it, but I am definitely looking forward to the movie. Now that the Hobbit trilogy is done, I need a new fantasy film franchise. :tgrin:

[MsMarvelDuckie]

I played through all of one week of a free two-week trial, and that was it for me. I enjoyed Runescape much more- and that game is FREE. I miss the days of just plain Warcraft.

Damn Paula Patton, what's up girl! Sisters in green paint, yes, yes, and yes.

I always back CG as the better way - but, this. looks. terrible. I know the argument that it's not final, etc, but there's no reality to anything at all. The designs are great, but the cg just feels so, cartoonish.

I never thought I'd be the one to say it, but I really think this would have been the right film to go with with practical effects. I don't know. Feels like the quality of CG has been gone down hill in Hollywood since 2012.

And this is the issue. The Orcs look like direct rips from Warcraft, almost exact in proportion and design, but the humans are all real actors. If the whole movie was CG, it would feel right, but it would alienate the audience who would avoid a 'cartoon'. If there are live actors, then it's just the next summer blockbuster CG-fest. lol

As a Vanilla raider, I'm pretty stoked for this.

[TigerClaw]

I never played the Warcraft games, but anyone noticed the Orc baby appears to be green, but the parents are all brown, whats up with that?

On the face of it, yeah, you'd think maybe CG was the way to go...and I don't think the design is bad - but, the look and feel - the render, it looks like PDMT did - cartoonish and terrible.

somebody, somewhere is making the wrong call. Cg can look photo real. Something is up.

I don't know enough about the game to really comment on much else - but once again it feels like they missed the mark.

Then again, this doesn't look to be any better really. Guy in costume is still a guy in costume. He does look like he's physically there, but there's no invocation of the suspension of disbelief.
Hollywood needs to work on it's magic. Maybe they can start by paying out more money for effects than the "stars". Spending 10 million on effects, (hundreds of people) and 15 million on one actor is idiotic.

Not sure. Maybe that's the green character Played by Paula Patton?

[NinjaPug]

I know nothing about Warcraft but I like Duncan Jones and the fantasy genre so I'm interested.

What's the overall story of the game?

[PangolinFeets]

That's baby Thrall!

[TigerClaw]

That's baby Thrall!
Yeah, That's what I read, But dont know why the baby appears green, I'm not familiar with Warcraft lore, so I'm sure there is a reason.

Exactly my point. They were going for this weird thing in-between matching the style of the game, but completely neglecting that for the humans. The orcs look identical to in-game or Blur-cinematic orcs. The humans are live actors, which only emphasizes the odd choice.It would have been interesting to see a more realistic take on orcies, or just a whole CG movie. This is a bit jarring.

It doesn't look as awkward when everyone is bulky and toonish.

Well, there's a lot to it, but basically green-skinned orcs are orcs that have either been corrupted with the blood curse from drinking the blood of Mannoroth or have just had exposure to fel magic. The natural color of orcs is the brownish color. (And then there are fel orcs, which have bright red skin and eyes from 'overdosing' on fel magic.).

Warcraft lore is worse than Star Wars. It's so friggen in-depth and crazy with a million expanded universe stories an characters and timelines and...guh. It'll make your head spin.

I just wonder why this is the new trend. Unrealistic CG in a live action world is kind of pointless - if it's not integrated into the shot 100%, it breaks the illusion, like a bad street magician.

Ted is obviously not a real effect, but they make the effort to sell the gag.

There hasn't been a good fantasy movie in a very long time - Guardians was the closest we've had, and obviously that's the wrong genre.

Was sort of hoping this would be it.

I guess we'll see. I'm still stuck on everyone's shoulders being so flipping tiny. And I was kinda hoping Garona would look a tad more Draenei for the movie. =/

Warcraft has an impressively expansive universe and cast of characters for story-telling. I just hope that is going to get across without making me roll my eyes too much. Either way, Durotan's story isn't the one I'm interested in. I want this to lead to an Arthas movie or one starring Thrall.

Lol, this must be how my GF feels when I talk TMNT. I don't have a clue what you're talking about with those story lines - :lol:

A friend of mine was a big fan of the game years ago - would go on and on about how they need to make a movie, etc... which is why i thought this was going to be an epic film.

Googling Garona - yeah, I get that she looks really human - (It's hard to mind much when it's your Hollywood crush). If I knew more about W.O.W. I'd be pissed too, I think.

I thought there were more races though - aren't there tiger men and tortoise people and wolf people, Elves, Panda men, etc. etc ... looked like the trailer only had Orcs and Humans.

[PangolinFeets]

Well yea. Warcraft is another one of those rabbit holes. (And this is just lore, not even touching on actual gameplay. XD)
For example, the ongoing joke is that WoW shoulder armor is always comically large. So when movie poster were released, some players 'fixed' them.
http://blogs-images.forbes.com/erikkain/files/2015/07/Warcraft-Shoulders.jpg
Totally accurate proportions.

Its ok for her to look human, because she thinks she's half-orc/half-human for a while, but she's actually half-orc/half-draenei. I'm just a big fan of the way Draenei look so I was hoping we'd get a bit in the film.
http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/4/46/Draenei_female_uncorrupted.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20070124023606
Standard female draenei.

The main WoW races, as per the new expansion, are as follows:
Horde- Orc, Undead, Troll, Goblin, Blood Elf, Tauren.
Alliance- Human, Dwarf, Gnome, Night Elf, Draenei, Worgen (Werewolf).
Neutral- Panderians.
There are hundreds of other races including ogres, pig people, hyena people, cat people, bug people, centaurs, walrus people, different kinds of spirits, naga, fungus people, ents, murlocs, energy people, frost giants, demons, dragons and it goes on and on. And even within the non-playable and playable races, there are different kinds of factions/tribes of those races that interact with you differently based on your own race and faction.
Then again, this story is a pretty early one in Warcraft history. If you're talking World of Warcraft, well, Thrall is the leader of the Horde by then. And WoW has always done a good job of leading into nastier baddies expansion by expansion. Take Burning Crusade:
IBHL_-biMrQ
You have Illidan Stormrage as the final boss. He's stupid hard and most players don't even get a chance to fight him, let alone beat him, due to the coordination and man power required to run Black Temple. Needless to say, pretty difficult boss.

Then came Wrath of the Lich King as an expansion, starring Arthas.

BCr7y4SLhck

And when this was announced, players were pissing themselves. Because Arthas is able to smack Illidan around like a little bitch, as illustrated in Warcraft 3:
eB82pF_64mw
So if they keep making movies, we're in for some amazingly epic showdowns.


TLDR: I hope this movie does well. Because as far as I'm concerned, it's just a beta test.

[Commenter 42]

...

Awesome. This really helped me -read it all - thanks.

So basically, I'm not wrong - There's a huge world of fascinating creatures and lots of places for the films to explore.

I'm interested in the larger idea, sounds great, and could be amazing done right.

Thanks for taking the time.


Ok - so if she's part Orc and Part Draenei or a Blue person - why is she Green? - the magic blood thing? wouldn't she be greyish or maybe kind of purple?

Box Office Pro has posted a long range forecast prediction.

They are predicting it's going to make $35M at opening weekend and gross $78M in the US.

http://pro.boxoffice.com/long-range-...aft-now-see-2/

Warcraft (Universal)

PROS:

– The Warcraft video game series the film is based on provides a potential built-in audience for the film, especially on opening weekend.

– Director Duncan Jones has built up a fanbase with 2009’s Moon and 2011’s Source Code. Jones’ involvement with Warcraft should help build further anticipation for the film.

– In comparison to The Conjuring 2 and Now You See Me 2, Warcraft will have the added advantage of higher priced 3D and IMAX admissions.

CONS:

– Warcraft has been performing modestly on Twitter as of late and its recent tweet levels are running significantly below those of both The Conjuring 2 and Now You See Me 2.

– Warcraft could be arriving a few years too late. In addition to the film being in development for a very long time, the Warcraft video game series isn’t as popular as it once was.

– The competition the film will face from The Conjuring 2, Now You See Me 2 and the weekend’s major holdovers.

I'm surprised this movie is PG 13 because of the brutal moments, Orc green blood being spilt and a neck snapping moment. I also heard there is an Orc sex scene in this.

On what do you base that? Eventually, a video game movie is going to be a major hit. So far, Warcraft has me interested as a non-gamer. It looks much more interesting than Assassins Creed... maybe that's just me.

Warcraft is doing well in Europe

http://deadline.com/2016/05/warcraft-opening-weekend-international-box-office-1201763736/

Legendary and Universal Pictures’ Warcraft is off to a game start at the international box office, with No. 1 openings in its first 11 markets. The total through Thursday is $9.3M. The adaptation of Blizzard Entertainment’s juggernaut video game franchise is bowing in a total of 20 overseas plays this frame. Notably first out of the gate were Germany, Russia and France. The strong start points to a $30M+ bow this weekend, blowing past earlier projections in the $20Ms.

It's also doing really well in pre booked ticket sales in China.

Saw Warcraft today, it was good but wasn't really exciting probably because I knew the story anyway. I loved the special effect and the score as well.

[TigerClaw]

Saw Warcraft today, It was pretty good, I think a lot of Fantasy movies should take notes from it, this movie does Orcs better then the Lord Of The Ring movies. :)

That just wouldn't work for LOTR. Not for me atleast. Warcraft did it really well though.

[Vicky82]

If this gets a sequel and I bet it will as it's doing so well overseas. I like to see Tauren, trolls, gnomes and night elves in the next movie.

Probably won't see undead and blood elves until the 3rd or 4th movie.

This one looks promising.
So I will see it.

The impressive success of ‘Warcraft: The Beginning’ at China’s box office is currently under scrutiny following claims that Chinese conglomerate the Wanda Group may be fiddling the figures.

The allegations surfaced as the film’s worldwide box office total broke the record set by 2010’s 'Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time’, making it the highest-grossing video game adaptation of all time.

Chinese conglomerate the Wanda Group is the focus of the accusations, which have primarily been made on social media (via China Film Insider). The company, which bought 'Warcraft’ production company Legendary Pictures for $3.5 billion in February, also owns a large number of cinemas in China.

A whopping 82 of these cinemas appeared in the top 100 highest-grossing cinemas in China this past Saturday, which fell on 'Warcraft’s second weekend in theatres. Typically, the number is around 40.

This led to accusations that the numbers had been manipulated. Wanda released a statement on Monday explaining the situation, claiming it attributes to the nationwide promotional campaign Wanda has laid on for the film, which lead to “record numbers of consumers”.

As surprising as ‘Warcraft’s success in China has been, it’s not a complete shock. The game on which the film is based - ‘World of Warcraft’ - is enormously popular in the country.

Around the world 'Warcraft’ has been less of a success, especially in the US - where the film tanked on its three-day opening weekend.
