    If we do agree that Warcraft "flopped", then its really sad Toby ends up in 2 movies that flopped.

    At least if we do count Warcraft as a flop. We all know it wasn't taken by storm, so there's that XD

    I was shocked at how much I actually liked the movie. And was even more shocked to find out my girlfriend and her kids who have zero connection to the warcraft universe absolutely loved it as well. They want a sequel, it was hard to break the news that one is not likely especially with baby thrall at the end.

    It was in fact a decent movie. I know a bad movie when i see one and this was not one of those cringy movies.
    I will never understand the hate of social media.

    Bunch of pretentious bastard snobs who hate the videogame industry.
    It should be written on paper that this was the best videogame movie to date. There is no competition whatsoever.

    Remember the movie is coming out on Digital HD TOMORROW in the US

    Same here. It's obvious as hell that Warcraft had its own flaws and problems (included reasons tied to the studio's decisions) but I wonder if anyone saying that Warcraft is an outright "bad" movie watched an actual bad movie ever.

    There are bands of movies based on the budget. Live action parts of Warcraft are definitely not in $160M range. Not even in $60M. Moreover, it is not a masterpiece of a director's work either. It is mediocre, and I don't have any idea where the money went, as acting and props are on par with Uwe Boll's productions (no joke here). I highly doubt "stars" like Foster, Kebbell, or Patton require high spending. Most likely it went to CG to create hires orcs which looks fake like hell despite that, because their design is retarded.

    Any attempts to blame the mismanaged budget on studio demanding editing are inane searching for excuse. A lame script and an unexperienced director are what doomed the movie (and the entire franchise, it seems now).

    Yeah, the one who gave a 4/5 to Dragon Ball Evolution.

    And as expected, the heroic Tackhisis was triggered. Too bad he's ignored. Such a pity.

    To be fair, it wasn't the same person. The "Battlefield Earth of 21st century" came from the "indie" guy.

    Not from what the box cover or back says so nope.

    Wonder how limited that "select" version is? I looked up a picture of the box art but didn't run across that. Nice find for those that intend to buy it and play some blizzard games.

    Because it's an extra package either attached to the box or given on checkout.

    Meanwhile, BDRIPs have been available for a while. The subtitles have quite a number of errors, though.

    - - - Updated - - -

    The DVD extras are quite disappointing: gag reel is mostly about mocap actors having fun and the Westfall scene in particular. Most extras are in the movie too.
    In the beginning, we can see a bit of Terry Notary as a peon, and Durotan kills one Dark Scar as a test of entry. (2 mins long)
    In Ironforge scenes, there are more lines about Dwarven steel ploughshares and warrior's curse.
    In Lion's Pride scene, there are some placeholder gryphon CGI and a bard singing that song.
    Then there is a throne room scene, starting with "The Black Morass." and ending with "He's more powerful than you think."
    The meeting scene has one extra line of a delegate saying "Floppy-eared fucks" aside.
    The market scene features Metzen selling aphrodisiacs, blue background and Patton in her natural color.
    The inn scene has extra part when Garona hits Lothar a couple of times and then he's trying to take her on a table. There was also a parting scene, but it's not there.

    There is extra part with Antonidas and Khadgar forswearing the Guardian position. There were a scene of pissed Khadgar leaving Dalaran, but it's not there.

    There may be 9 minutes of new footage.

    For someone who hates this movie, you shouldn't bump the thread.

    LOL
