[Movie] Warcraft (June 2016)

[Tackhisis]

On other News is that there's a new Narnia Film in the making.

Do you seriously compare the Anglosphere bestseller, Narnia, with a computer game, Warcraft?

No they are not. They are stating that another sequel is coming, despite the latest movie being a failure (as you keep saying)

Do you realize that Narnia is in order of magnitude more lucrative franchise than Warcraft?
Do you realize that no one will care for Warcraft anything in 2021?

Hearthstone alone is probably making more money than, well, any book out there.

Why the hell am I replying to you?

For whom? o_O

As for books, it makes more profit to license the imaging rights for a bestsellers' new edition, than spend money on tie-in writing that will not likely sell.

Guys, please stop replying to this troll. Put him on ignore and he'll eventually stop posting. Thank you.

If only half of the people posting would asked this very same question to themselves.

For cheap entertainment.

Those people are retarded, anyway. She's not an orc.

And Draka is definitely no beauty.

Draka is more beautiful and strong than I could have imagined, she is no beauty pageant for sure but from an orc POV she is beautiful. She aint not human pretty.

Hearthstone alone is probably making more money than, well, any book out there.

The Harry Potter franchise is worth $15 billion. The books alone have netted Rowling over $1 billion, and the Deathly Hallows sold $15 million in the first 24 hours - it was selling 15 copies every second in the UK.

Hearthstone, in conjunction with HotS and Destiny, has netted Blizzard over $1 billion, but we have no idea how much it has made alone.

Apples to oranges, but books still sell to a very broad audience and make a significant amount of money when they're popular. Games like HS have ongoing sales components that continue to make them money over time, while books are more like a B2P structure.

Not to mention the Bible probably makes more money every year than is even fathomable, it's just not earned for a single publisher/author.

Chronicles of Narnia, its a book series with 2/3rds the same following as LoTR.

If it has even remotely half of the LoTR following i should of heard of it before no?
Why is it even been compared to anything its 2 completely diffrent things..

[Zulkhan]

Yeah, knowing nothing of Narnia can be considered more a feat than a standard.

[pateuvasiliu]

LOL comparing Narnia to Warcraft. Warcraft makes more money in 1 year than the whole Narnia franchise.

[Tackhisis]

The most recent movie was released in 2010... maybe you've just had your head in the sand?

As with Carroll's Alice, Narnia is virtually unknown outside of the English-speaking world.

Warcraft makes more money in 1 year than the whole Narnia franchise.

And? There are 10 times more people who heard of it, unlike Warcraft anything. No Warcraft book or movie can have the same appeal.

Yeah gonna have to call bullshit on this one.


People didn't know about Narnia when the first movie came out. It's been downhill since.

[Ebalina]

How would we know what you've been doing the last 50 years? Narnia has had been adapted to live action more than once with the fourth movie in the series on the horizon. The most recent movie was released in 2010... maybe you've just had your head in the sand?

2010 ? That is 6 years ago.
Even if i had heard something about it back then the fact that i can't remember a single thing about it speaks volumes about the quality of that franchise.
My head is where it has always been on my shoulders just because i don't go to each trend and be excited lil girl like most of the world doesn't mean jack.

Again narnia who i mean after all the last thing was 2010 and if it was so good there should of been hype still about it right?

I guess it's time for a weekly reminder about USA not being the whole planet.

Also, I've heard about Narnia the first time from The Lonely Island remake of Lazy Sunday song several years ago.
Still haven't watched any Narnia-related movies or read any books about it. Just not interested.
