    Default Warcraft movie announced

    Lay your eyes on this baby:

    Contrary to popular belief that WoW sucks, I am actually looking forward to this, especially because it's done by Legendary Pictures.

    This has the potential to be awesome, and the probability of being very bad.

    Video game movie adaptations...ehhhh.

    Based on previous game-movies.


    It's going to suck.

    However, a lot of people will probably go to see it.

    Eh Usually Game's made into movies suck because the director etc sucks but this guy was the director of The Spider-Man trilogy so it might turn out alright, we'll see

    Cool. Hope its on the whole lore of Warcraft. And mostly people from WoW will watch. An offtopic thing I wanna say is that, everytime people hear "Warcraft" they automatically think of WoW. Sometimes people mix up the RTS with the MMO. Hate it when I say I play Warcraft when someone says "OMG you play WoW you nerd."

    Lol, I heard about this like a year ago. Still, I agree with Nuferex, Warcraft 1-3 is 4000x better than WoW, but people still think they are the say.

    Me and my cousins are gonna see it xD

    From what the articles says, they're bringing some competent people to the project.
    So hopefully they break the terrible streak of shitty Video Game-to-Movie-Adaptations.
    If not. Well, it will just end up being one more thing to look down on for those upon the "Warcraft / WoW Hate Bandwagon."

    bricks were shat, i love warcraft lore and i cant wait to see it on the big screen

    the big question though, what part of the lore will it be about? arthas? the dark portal? thrall's beginnings? king varion? malfurion stormrage? so many possibilities

    As soon as I saw "movie".
    I screamed "NO" in my head.

    There's a big chance its going to suck. If they were to make a Warcraft movie, its better to keep it 100% CG.

    um,,,im pretty sure it will be based on its lore/story more then on which specific game and if it were to be based on any of them what in the world makes you think it would be wc3? it would undoubtedly be about wow, but in anycase it won't be based on either it will be its lore.

    lotro has alot more lore than wow, btw. and was written by an epic fantasy author. . .all they had to do is fill in a good cast, get a director who knows what they are doing and follow the goddam book.


    I doubt WoW will be better.

    This.

    If people are going to continue to make books into movies then they need to follow the damn original. (Harry Potter 6)
