New Warcraft TV Spot: Close up look at a Dwarf

[Techno-Druid]

Thought this was especially interesting, largely because up to this point we've only seen close shots of humans and orcs. There were elves in the background within a few frames as well as two dwarves, but it's cool to see one up close now.

Any prediction on what role helfs and dwarves will play within the film?

I like how he looks different than a straight up lotr dwarf. But also in that tv spot, we see what looks like a redone version of the scene people were teased at comic con years ago!

Yeah, maybe that could be a first encounter type scene within the film.

Also, Ironforge is absolutely beautiful...will be let down if we don't see at least one gnome

I'm not even sure if it's redone, and I wouldn't necessarily count on it appearing in the final movie.

Though, as I recall, the original mood piece sounded more like it was set on Draenor, with green lightning in the sky and such.

Is it me or does the CGI on the orc not look as good as the CGI we've seen in earlier previews?

Makes the humans look even more out of place... they should have just delayed the movie another year and redone the humans as CG characters right over the top. Would go a long way in improving the movie's look.

And that human actor looks horrible, like what is he even doing in this scene? His face looks so stupid. Like he was just copy and pasted into a CG cinematic and has no idea what he's doing. Just awful.

You see dwarf hunters CAN use pistols lol

Agreed, but people won't go see that unless it's some Pocahontas rip-off.

I would have been fine with a movie fully rendered how the game trailers are.

I think the dwarf looks fine, it certainly has a more authentic feeling than a lot of other movies that were heavily CGI based.

I think it looks great and I'm sure the graphics will be polished up a bit when the actual movie hits threatres.

It wouldn't have made a dime if they did that though.

Or it totally would have. The amount of warcraft fans going to see that alone would have made a profit.

Also anime is totally in right now.

[Lochton]

Still love the face of the human/man, as if the dwarf just used his gun on something/someone he shouldn't have.

I'll just point out something, 'Bottoms Up' as well a few others were quite popular. I don't think it would be a movie thing, but could easily see it sell online.

Well, if you are eager to wait for an 2025 release of the film I'd be fine with that too.

[Benomatic]

Is the dwarf Magni?

[Lochton]

It looks like lothar just lost a bet.

"bet you cant hit that breadsellers loaf from this spot!"

Hah! Someone else is on the note as me!

Sounds like testosterone deficiency.

My thought was he was actually showing the humans gun technology. And Lothar is seeing it for the first time.

It's a snapshot taken mid screen. It's not a poster. It's not supposed to look good taken out of context like that.

Take a video of yourself talking and divide it to individual frames and see how those look like.

You know, something has felt off about all of the recent things I've seen of the movie, and I haven't been able to figure out what it was until now. You're right: real humans look really out of place in the Warcraft universe. All the CGI looks great to me, but when you drop an actual human actor in the scene, it just makes everything else look ridiculous. They really should have just made CGI Blizzard-style humans.

I'd be ok with that if it didn't look like such garbage.

Also if the movie was made like that it'd have plenty more artists working on it.
