[Movie] Warcraft (June 2016)

[Deleted]

That is actually gorgeous. Wow!

[Leodok]

Everyone is talking about "Lothar's son", did I miss something? I didn't know he had one.

Exactly. And the general audience wouldn't either :P

[Zoaric]

Fan made artwork. However, with Drew Struzan-levels of quality, I think this would
be a perfect Blu Ray steel box cover.

Lore-wise he doesn't, as he's the last of his line. In the movie, it seems he has a
son named Callan who dies to the orcs somewhat because of Medivh.

This is also a beautiful shot when it isn't taken from a video

Oh my god, these are all so beautiful. So... Why exactly are we getting worse quality in the trailers? Hopefully that wont be the case with the movie.

He'll have one in the movie, which makes sense since Lothar is quite younger (much like he was originally in WC1).

Saw this artwork on twitter an hour ago, amazingly done

[Zulkhan]

Seems like you cannot link the photos directly, oh well

It was this one

Jesus Christ, the lighting is so much better. And that wolf...look at that wolf!

Old and unfinished shots, YouTube being crap when it comes to high-quality CGI, etc.
Who knows?

[Soulwind]

Some harsh words for Warcraft.

And presumably, they're still working on it. It could get even better.

It should be recreated using official assets (or some Blizzard artist) and be used for the DVD and Blu-ray covers!

that would be a pretty powerful motivator going into a second film to...it also explains in that pax east trailer where he's holding his son's shoulder through the lightning (the look on Lothor's face is pretty powerful even in that shot...its like he is unable to stop his son from going or something)

[Zoaric]

Often a later US released movie will look better than earlier foreign releases due
to continued polish. (Fel, there's been Marvel movies that had extra scenes in the
US release that were shot too late to be shown abroad.)

Ugh ugh ugh... I just keep thinking why people expect Warcraft to be bad... a lot of times their reason is being that it is a video game movie... I can totally see why it being a problem, but I personally feel that, from what we've seen so far, the way the movie is being made is just so much off how a normal video game movie would be like.

On another note... I think that a lot of people is seeing Durotan as the main protagonist, with Lothar being more of a support character. I can also see why, but it is mostly because we haven't really seen what the deal with Lothar is yet

I don't think too many people can even tell Durotan or Lothar apart from any other random orc or soldier. If you don't know who these characters are supposed to be, it's hard to tell which ones are important with such fast paced, action focused trailers.

Also, WE know more about this movie than what the trailers show, we've seen interviews, we've seen behind the scenes stuff... Most people have only seen two terrible trailers that give them almost no information about the movie or the characters.

They simply have no reason to be excited for it beyond the CGI and the action, Universal hasn't given them any.

warcraft lore rivals the depth and breadth of lord of the rings lore. theres just this massive universe that I hope we see more and more of. they don't need to do trilogies...they could simply just keep making warcraft films much like how star trek used to be. could you imagine seeing arthas on the big screen? illidan? seeing the other races of azeroth? my god!

I wonder if reviews will be affected when they find out

that the humans don't actually win in this movie. this is definitely the 'empire strikes back' type of scenario and I wonder if that will affect how the average movie goer enjoys it

I hope the reviews get affected, and positively. Honestly, if anyone downgrades any movie in their book because of what they consider a grim ending... Well, they should just grow up.

[tangocash]

How would they know? I mean the general audience doesn't know Durotan will die, even though we have actually already seen him laying on the ground for a split second? In the second trailer



If people haven't noticed that, they would not know that his son is gonna die. If you ask me XD

How do you know that's Durotan? Don't make me cry.

[Tornwar]

I dunno if it is him, but other people said it was, so... XD
