[Movie] Warcraft (June 2016)

[lonely zergling]

I'm holding off final judgment till I see the movie, but I expect a slave to look pretty damn roughed up. Maybe Orcs treat their slaves nicely, lol.... idk.

Maybe they treat female slaves better.

If I remember well she has some scars on her skin, and she has the scars all around her neck, but I agree about the teeth

If she's been magically aged in the movie (which we don't know), there would be no reason for her teeth to be decayed, right?

It's a shitty excuse, this is something Hollywood does in pretty much every movie. A guy gets beaten up, but half an hour later he's perfectly fine again, and teeth are only ugly in movies about pirates. A whole life of torture and slavery won't ever stop a main character from looking pretty.

Yeah, Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games is supposed to be starving and in poor conditions, yet she is a little chubby and with super white teeth. It always happens in movies

This is probably Antonidas played by Toby Kebbell.

He indeed kinda looks like him

[Zulkhan]

You guys do realize that this happens to literally every big movie, right?

And? How does this change the whole point?

Kuwait release hype

Any Kuwaitans wanna tell us how it was

So the title is out today. No wonder you can rate it on IMDB. Without even watching it.

330 votes, 7.6/10. Hard to imagine if 15 out of 330 actually saw the movie.

I'd like to think the 4-8 scores are real.

If you're a fan, you vote 9 or 10, if you're a hater, you vote 1 or 2, but why would anyone vote "lacking", "average" or "good" if they don't have an actual opinion?

But scores without reviews don't mean anything anyway. Reviews like the ones we've seen the past couple of days are the only thing anyone should care about. At least the indecisive people who do trust scores this early will see a positive reaction, even if it's not a sincere or informed one.

Hello, currently deployed military member here. I can confirm Kuwait is showing Warcraft.
The base with which I am stationed at is showing Warcraft tomorrow, May 20th. I haven't been following the movie much, but I had assumed that the states already had the movie. I know that the theater here received Deadpool, Captain America: Civil War, and a couple other movies before the states. I did not expect Warcraft to be here early.
I hope that I get to see the showing on its release day as other popular movies had been sold out the first three days that they had showings.
On top of that, OP really underestimates Kuwait in terms of its economy. 1 KD (Kuwaiti Dinar) is worth $3.31 (USD). I had the chance to go downtown and wander around in the Kuwait City mall. The place is freaking huge, incredibly westernized, and unsurprisingly pricey.
Cheers!

Antonidas? The wizard with the magnificent beard? Man I sure hope not.

[fakaroonie]

No fluffy white long beard = not Antonidas, sorry I so hope he doesn't look like that.

Hard to trust, why kuwait ?

But if that's true, that means we could start to get some review today or tomorrow.

Those chinese promotional pictures were all very weird. It seems they took unfinished stills and added most of the effects and colours with photoshop. Who knows what he'll end up looking like in the movie.

Antonidas is the old wizard at funeral scene.

How are they going to get mass appeal from audiences without making the movie feel like it's just for geeks?

What kind of a silly question is that? How do any SciFi or Fantasy movies do it without making it 'just for geeks'?

FFS, people on these forums...

So what youre saying is most people out there watch twitch streams. Therefore most people wont have a problem sitting thru a two hour video game in the theater.

MMMKay.....

I'm not even sure if this question has any sense to begin with. I mean, that's the exact way you're going to appeal the general audience, without making a movie that feels made only for geeks.

Because we all know movies like Star wars or Civil War are not the geekiest thing out there?

First I'll chastise you for putting words in my mouth as I haven't referenced Twitch nor watching hours of video games. I can only imagine you think your being clever. Meanwhile the rest of us who have seen decades of Sci Fi and Fantasy movies, derived from many different sources, know exactly how movies cater to a wide array of audiences. Did only book nerds go see LotR? Did only book nerds go see Blade Runner? Did only comic nerds go see the Avengers? Did only music nerds go see Straight Outta Compton? Did only boxing nerds watch Creed? Like...really? Is this real life?

I can't tell if you're being willfully ignorant or it's just inherent.
