Blizzard making a WOW movie, is anyone surprised?

Blood Rayne 1 failed in epic proportions.

IMHO if they're going to make a movie, a starcraft movie would be much better than a warcraft movie. IMHO.

100% AGREED!!!!

that's what I was thinking!
it would be pretty pimp, too, with all those marines etc...

but it might be ghey because they might choose to put all the zerg in the dark so they don't have to work as hard on the zerg models

which is kind of what happened in the DOOM movie (actually i lied i didn't watch the doom movie but am guessing that's what they did)

But still nothing about a half life movie.. I think it would be a great Idea to make one because it's a good story. I'm sure it will become successful not just with the fans of the game but with general audiences to, just like Resident Evil and Mortal Kombat turned out.

we can be certain of one thing though: the experience wouldn't be complete without the crowbar.

The problem with videogame movies at the moment is that they aren't created as per the criteria for a decent film. It doesn't matter if the film's premise is totally crap it will get a green light based upon the success of the videogames franchise, not the films own merits. Of course the directors don't give a shit because making a poor movie is easier than making a good one and they get paid either way.
What came first, the spamming or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids reading thousands, literally thousands of posts about anime, 4chan, flaming, goatse and emos. Did I make terrible posts because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I made terrible posts?

WOW?.. doesn't it say Warcraft movie?

there's alot of history in warcraft, that's one of the things that makes it so great + there has been written a couple of books about the warcraft history too. so that makes it a pretty good thing to make a movie out of

still, it would be pretty shitty because they would have to CGI in all the orcs because they are so fat -- the costumes would have to be hugely expensive
as opposed to lord of the rings orcs, which were doable
