Warcraft Movie Slated to Bomb in North America

Will you see it opening weekend?

So far the only hype has been "The Serbian people reacted positively to it". USA buzz is nonexistent outside of the niche nerd community. The budget is 160 million dollars and going up against X-men, Alice, and the Conjuring 2.

If you have to reach to Serbia for movie feedback about your movie, it is probably not a good sign.

Quote:

Variety reported that the film is generating only moderate interest among U.S. moviegoers, which could possibly hurt its box office performance stateside, with poor reviews and competition from the aforementioned films and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (released the week prior) also affecting its performance.

Serbians cited here as a measuring stick of yay/nay:

Quote:

During the first ten days of screening in Serbia, 50,000 people saw it in the cinemas across the country and overall reaction of the visitors was positive

So, are you going to do it Serbian style and see the movie opening weekend? Or are you feeling more Western European, and going to catch this one in a couple months for free?

IM hoping its terrible. Becuse I Know no mater what it is, its going to end up being the highest grossing movie of all time.

And I would prefer the worst movie of all time was also the highest grossing.

It would make a lot of sense, its basically how we vote in america.

I kinda expect it to be a mess, but I'm gonna see it anyway. I like the Warcraft lore, and Blizzard's in-house cinematics have always been some of the best in the biz.

much like the game, you shouldn't pay for this movie

SPOILER ENDING!

For The Horde!
Edit: I'd rather they just made a full length cinematic movie with 0 real life actors.

For The Horde!

playing through that Great Mother quest line in Nagrand and seeing that fight sort of re-enacted in game was one of the best parts of TBC

It bombed in other countries so bad... Movie theaters here in California are only showing like 2 per theater... As oppose to 8 like Starwars did.... Yes, I will see it opening weekend though.
