  • Blizzard feels the team has done a great job with the movie and that everyone is in good hands with them.
  • There is a scene where everything is burning down, Durotan is in his tent with Draka.
  • The visual effects are very realistic. Motion capture was used, the team worked with ILM to make it feel as much like live action as possible.
  • Effects are Avatar and Lord of the Rings at the same time.
  • Very detailed sets were built, such as part of Stormwind's main street.
  • Camera operator could see the digital Orcs in real time when capturing the footage.
  • There was training on how to physically act as an Orc.

    Duncan tweeted aboot the old having trouble catching up with the new- While I
    wouldn't call Blizzard the most modern, they know how things work for stuff like
    this. But movie exacs?

    So, no. It hasn't been explicitly stated either way, but it seems an easy bet to blame
    Legendary.

    Well if it is Legendary that just shows how clueless Blizzard has become. Remember when they were shopping around the idea for a movie and stated that they would only work with a studio who allowed it to remain their project. Guess Blizzard as always has bitten off more than they could chew.
