Well I will do further examination, since you seconded the motion.

My gut/off the cuff reaction was the CGI lacks the realism of LOTR. Maybe that was the look they were going for, because its a video game adaptation. Looking better doesn't mean better CGI per se. I realized I should have qualified that.

Anyway the Orcs/Tauren kick ass and thats all that really matters, LOTR didn't have Orc main characters.

Very interested in what they have put together after a decade of delays on production of this movie.

I feel like the CGI is appropriate for a "wow" movie. It honestly looks better than hyper-realistic effects which can be over the top. The action looks much smoother paced, and I do like the design of the orcs. Even if they are unrealistic. Etc... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Can agree with this.

Looking forward to see a few nods to the WoW community in the movie. Easter eggs and what not.

Never was into WoW, but this movie looks pretty sweet

If only EQ could've done something like this with the Firiona Vie and Iksar capture story

SOE could never have pulled a movie off. They fumbled and bumbled trying to manage and develop the success of EQ itself. They also abused their customers and community with an iron fist, whereas Blizzard fostered and developed their community with great management and community relations. A little good-will goes a long way. Night and Day difference.

Blizzard, they are not.

Trailer looked pretty good. Looks like a nice night at Alamo Drafthouse when this comes out. Not sure if there was any mention, hints of Medivh in the trailer, but only watched it a couple of times.

Anyone able to explain the likely plot we'll see in the film?

Not sure what storyline they're going for and I was never completely up to snuff on the WoW lore.

Will definitely be seeing this movie either way.

My theory is that it's Orgrim Doomhammer and Durotan trying to find a place for the Horde in Azeroth. Different ways to do it from both of them, and the Humans/Alliance figuring out how to deal with the orcs.

seems like its going to be copy/paste story from the first couple Warcraft games. which does make me think that if the movie does well we'll eventually see a warcraft 3 and frozen throne stuff.. my giblets are tingling
