评论来自 Killagon Warcraft the movie 2? 评论来自 Nicholas0606 Still don't understand why they thought it was a good idea for Dalaran to already be in the sky. Such a HUGE lore !@#$-up and for absolutely no reason at all. I honestly enjoyed the movie but that is just such a glaring mistake. It hurts. 评论来自 Swordart21 Loved movie :) 评论来自 Wraknar Still don't understand why they thought it was a good idea for Dalaran to already be in the sky. Such a HUGE lore !@#$-up and for absolutely no reason at all. I honestly enjoyed the movie but that is just such a glaring mistake. It hurts.\r

The rule of cool, a floating city is far more cinematic and a view to behold, than a normal boring grounded city. 评论来自 Spectrence Still don't understand why they thought it was a good idea for Dalaran to already be in the sky. Such a HUGE lore !@#$-up and for absolutely no reason at all. I honestly enjoyed the movie but that is just such a glaring mistake. It hurts.\r

because it didn't affect the lore of the movie. it looked cooler to have it flying. so, in the movie's lore, it was flying the whole time. it's a different thing, based off the games. not a direct copy. like it or hate it, that's up to your opinion. personally I felt they could've done better with the movie, but the flying city thing wasn't a big deal either way. it wasn't a mistake on their part, it was said they did it on purpose from the start. 评论来自 Rizbey Still don't understand why they thought it was a good idea for Dalaran to already be in the sky. Such a HUGE lore !@#$-up and for absolutely no reason at all. I honestly enjoyed the movie but that is just such a glaring mistake. It hurts.\r
\r
The whole movie hurt. It was almost as if they made a movie ripping off Warcraft. I didn't enjoy the movie at all and it wasn't true to the game and lore. Luckily it was a forgettable movie. 评论来自 Coldleo This is why you should start with Arthas -> Lich King for a story and not jumble as much of the original game and new plot line into one thing. 评论来自 HalcyonFury I thought the movie was a spectacle for sure. Even as a diehard alliance player, the orcs were leaps and bounds better than the alliance stuff. The alliance actors were just so so so so bad, as was the general writing, imo.\r
\r
Get better writers and much better live actors and I'd contemplate seeing a 2nd movie. 评论来自 Skrauhg Still don't understand why they thought it was a good idea for Dalaran to already be in the sky. Such a HUGE lore !@#$-up and for absolutely no reason at all. I honestly enjoyed the movie but that is just such a glaring mistake. It hurts.\r

But it's not set in our timeline. Therefore, it cannot be seen as a mistake because it doesn't clash with our lore. It has its own lore. 评论来自 Donhorn Maybe we could get a second movie as a direct to Netflix thing. I liked the movie and was really looking forward to them eventually doing an Arthas movie. 评论来自 Skullnbonerz For me the orcs were INCREDIBLE, but the humans were boring and terribly cast. Travis Fimmel would have made a great Medivh as he has the right balance of mystery and wierdness to him but not so much that it's annoying, but man he was just too tiny to be a warrior of legend like Lothar. \r
\r
King Llane was awful, the actor looks in no way like he could be the father of Varian, and he just looked so bored throughout the movie, someone like Jon Hamm buffed up would have made an awesome Llane and he'd have the right look for the Wrynn family line too. \r
\r
They also kind of messed up the visuals altogether because the orcs are too over the top and the humans are too underwhelming, WoW humans are not Earth humans, they are much larger naturally and have huge hands and chins, and then they make the orcs in the movie look like walking trucks on steroids fighting the comparatively tiny Earth human actors, the movie orcs seem more like ogres than orcs to me just by how ridiculously huge they are. In Warcraft universe orcs are bascally large humans with tusks, they aren't meant to be giants aside from Blackhand who is the Gregor Clegane of the orc world. 评论来自 AndrionJenkins Please Blizzard, give us a second movie! 评论来自 angeleyed I was really disappointed with the movie derailing from the lore and after reading this I understand that it was blizzard's call. They had to make room for the horde characters to be good too so that they appease half the playerbase. I am a horde player and I might say now that i wouldn't mind the movie to go according to the lore and depict the horde as evil, but who knows maybe I would. As for the minor (to me personally) changes like dalaran flying and garona's race I guess they happened as a retaliation of the movie creators to blizzard's marketing, so that people like me will go mad anyways.

One thing eludes me though. They knew their lore, they knew their characters and they know what got people hooked to warcraft in the first place. Why did they choose to create a movie around the first war? What were they trying to achieve? I mean someone might say they wanted to start from the beginning, but you have to consider the first war isn't the beginning of warcraft lore. Why didn't they choose the warcraft 3 setting or some world of warcraft expansion setting? Why didn't they choose Rhonin's adventures?

Anyways I am willing to forget everything as long as another movie comes out and they are wiser with what they show. After all it is us lore geeks who board the hype train first and everyone else follows.

As for the American sales its pretty obvious that the lore geeks rushed to bury the movie and the rest were like "this guy who is addicted to warcraft said it's bad, why would I go watch it?" 评论来自 DrGreatScott I feel like another issue lies in pompous movie critics. Truth be told in their eyes no movie is a good movie unless it's made by the big mouse himself. *cough* Rotten tomatoes *cough*. I'm not saying that there aren't exceptions. However, most articles tend to talk about how good the next marvel film is going to be and then turn around and talk crap about any other franchise before they've even released their first film. And this is coming from a guy who LOVES disney movies. 评论来自 Grortraugh Thank you for sharing the concept art 评论来自 Dakushisai I was really disappointed with the movie derailing from the lore and after reading this I understand that it was blizzard's call.

The lore geeks didn't bury the movie, it was the critics, and the American crowd when it comes to movies follows those critics blindly, in other words the average American movie goer is a brainless slave to those critics. Not to mention, I know the lore, and I couldn't care about the lore, it was about bringing a first movie that's relatively easy to understand on people not familiar with the franchise in general, it was supposed to entertain me for the time spent, and to me it did... I also think that if they went too deep into the lore, it probably would have performed even worse. 评论来自 Vibriss The film was genuinely bad. Even if you forget everything you knew about Warcraft and watch it with clear mind, it's still bad. The plot was bad and followed a beaten fantasy formula, was overload with clich\u00e9s, had predictable plot twists and added too many completely redundant things which only made the movie feel stretched. \r
\r
Garona's romance was absolutely unnecessary, came out of nowhere, didn't make sense and was impossible to empathize with. Lothar's son exists with the sole purpose of dying in the end so viewers would be shocked (to be fair, the nature of his death came out as a surprise to me, but the ultimate fate definitely did not). Alodi's scene felt like a robbery of time, with these mysterious, but completely meaningless words. I could go on.\r
\r
The film could've been better if it actually attempted to tell an original fantasy story instead of trying to shoehorn some "essential" story elements, exposition and the world (which viewers likely won't see again). If many of these scenes and characters didn't exist, they would have more time to develop actually interesting ones. The ending is essentially the deconstruction of the idea that good triumphs over bad, with most sympathetic characters killed off, treacherous Doomhammer in charge and Go'el's escape which only seems as something good for those familiar with lore and was added as a "to be continued" nod, because directors considered a sequel to be possible or even certain.\r
\r
FIlm's only saving grace were the visuals: absolutely stunning display of arcane magic, great-looking orcs (even though their CGI was showing sometimes) and plenty of picturesque moments which made great screenshots and wallpapers. Other than that, it was a cheap fantasy piece that doesn't really bring anything new to the genre. 评论来自 Ellore I thought the movie was disappointing. The orcs hands looked ridiculously plastic, and the pacing was erratic and poorly paced. I found myself not really caring what happened 30 minutes in. Please don't make another one. 评论来自 mageranger13 It left me disappointed seeing established lore vs the movie's interpretation of said lore. Floating Dalaran, Khadgar not aging, the way and place King Llane died...the list is as long as the movie is. However, there are a few things we forget here we should keep in mind. With the exception of the Lord of the Rings, typically movies are "based upon\/on" events, stories, or books. Often times the media the movie is basing it on tells it one way and the movie does it differently, that's why they say "based on\/upon" and not exact copy. \r
\r
The other thing to keep in mind here is the nature of WoW lore. We have literally hours upon hours of lore that needs to be compressed into a 2-3 hour movie. Not only that but the important components of the film need to be organic and flow from one point to the next. That is often very challenging when telling a story after having chopped up nearly 3\/4ths of it. Don't believe me? Take a book, any book, rip out 3\/4ths of the pages from it, now read it...it will make absolutely no sense, you have to create a short narrative between pages to explain the next set, kind of like a transition phase. Now because you tossed those other pages without reading them, you may come up with something entirely alien to what you had. Someone may come along read the pages, read what you wrote and go WTF mate?\r
\r
That essentially happened with this movie, why was the city of Dalarn floating in the sky? Because it was seen as a magical city and they needed a way to make it stand out without explaining why its a magical city and not having the time to explain it or Dalaran's true lore. At least they were faithful to the end result which was that Dalaran is actually a floating city much later in its lore. Do I like the changes? No, but I do understand their reasoning for them. Someone recorded all of Humans Vs Orcs on YouTube the entire game narrative...its just too dang long for a movie not to mention it does not fully explain a lot of what we know now either. Honestly I think the whole lot did a great job on the movie and I own the steelbox edition and watch it often. It isn't perfect but it works. I look for the day when fans can make a full CGI movie or work with Blizz for that. It would be nice to see a true representation of lore. That all being said, Stormwind in the movie had such a horrible district layout lol it had the general feeling of Stormwind but looked nothing like it. 评论来自 Truweil For me the orcs were INCREDIBLE, but the humans were boring and terribly cast. Travis Fimmel would have made a great Medivh as he has the right balance of mystery and wierdness to him but not so much that it's annoying, but man he was just too tiny to be a warrior of legend like Lothar.

King Llane was awful, the actor looks in no way like he could be the father of Varian, and he just looked so bored throughout the movie, someone like Jon Hamm buffed up would have made an awesome Llane and he'd have the right look for the Wrynn family line too.

They also kind of messed up the visuals altogether because the orcs are too over the top and the humans are too underwhelming, WoW humans are not Earth humans, they are much larger naturally and have huge hands and chins, and then they make the orcs in the movie look like walking trucks on steroids fighting the comparatively tiny Earth human actors, the movie orcs seem more like ogres than orcs to me just by how ridiculously huge they are. In Warcraft universe orcs are bascally large humans with tusks, they aren't meant to be giants aside from Blackhand who is the Gregor Clegane of the orc world.

Ok dude, you know the character representations we play in-game aren't exactly lore accurate, the orc are huge hulking masses that tower over humans, even exaggerated Azeroth humans.

I loved the movie, the only real problem I saw was they really didn't convey the pacing well, like Garona's broken English from 1 scene to perfect English in the next, the story just moved too fast to really have time for character development, which was really the only other issue.

If we get a sequel that contains Thrall, he has to be played by Ron Pearlman, I don't think there's a more perfect match.

Also, the concept are is amazing.
