every WoW expansion game intro was more epic than this. i'm not feeling it.

can imagine that too many "regisseurs" work on all these scenes. They differ dramatically in terms of design and graphic. Arguable!
Besides that so epic and i hope they are able to compete with Lord of the Rings (reasonable the movie to compare with). But: consider! Lord of the Rings has a good and easy story: is World of Warcraft capable to deliver that to a for example 50 year old mother who got forced by his child ! Does she understand the (World of) Warcraft story? Other than that it would only be fighting, but if I see the history of (World of) Warcraft, there are more things to consider (important persons) or so, which many people forgot. Dont forget: the movie is called Warcraft, not World of Warcraft. I assume we see more expensions? Would love to see a flyer (handout) in the cinemas to understand the story behind Warcraft (many people dont or didnt even read and play dialogues or RolePlay or quests/small movies and skipped it)
If only humans were CGI ... looks epic,but humans should be CGI.
Will you get someone dressed exactly? No. Close? More likely, which leads to a better immersion. I can tell that dwarf is fake, hell, trim the hair and starve him for awhile, and you got Dobby from Harry Potter.

Oh god I get it now...
This is going to be the WoW communities "Twlight".
Even if it gets horrible reviews, it'll still make a profit.
I await the spin off "50 Shades of Green"
3rd tv spot is on

marketing hype!
damn this looks so cheap --- anyone know what the budget for the film was?
It's stated to be at 100mio, but in the articles it was described as "nort of 100mio". Universal considered it to be a problem movie because it has such a high budget, which feels weird. 100mio doesn't sound a lot for a fantasy epic movie. Hobbit was somewhere between 200 and 315mio, the latest Star Wars was 200mio.
I'm honestly afraid they'll end up saying the movie is 100 minutes long in the end. That would be a problem.

known actors alone took a lot of the budget, i dont know how much Ian took, but for example RDJ alone took 50m budget from the avengers and iron man 3
you can create a whole movie with RDJ budget.
warcraft dont have any super high budget actor, so lots of the money is going on the production rather than actors or director
I look forward to the movie when it comes out. Hope we dont get too many trailers revealing too much. its not like we dont know how this will all go but i'd rather the journey there not be spoiled.
That's very true. Harrison Ford took 20mio alone from the SW budget. I honestly hope Warcraft movie ends up being good, wouldn't mind this going into a trilogy, but I feel that everybody - meaning fans, studios, critics - is expecting it to fail miserably. Underdog movie of 2016 for sure.

And I agree, the movie would look better if the humans were CGI, but it wouldn't do better, since fully animated adult movies are very niche and not blockbuster material.
Between making everybody a human with a costume and having a movie that looks NOTHING like Warcraft or making everybody except humans CGI, I choose the later.

Man, are you in for a seriously rude awakening. Love how you've already setting up an escape clause for your outraged denial once the movie flops as badly as it is going to flop though. But it's cool, we all know you guys need to maintain the sense that you haven't wasted the last ten years of your life on a shitty franchise. We get it. (Doesn't mean we're going to stop laughing, of course, but we get it.)
