Originally posted by Blazeyer I agree, so good! And when you're done with Moon, watch Event Horizon if you haven't already.
And last, after watching Event Horizon, turn off lights in your apartment, turn volume up on your headphones, start up Dead Space (Game), and prepare to shit your pants!

Originally posted by Goll25 Spoken like a true WoW kid, congrats. (If you don't want animosity, perhaphs you should get our your high horse hmmm?) As another person already stated, there are way better IP's that could be made into movies. We all know that this is just another cash grab for the blind followers. (Yes, I too am allowed that thing called an "opinion" wether you like it or not). Nonetheless, have fun with your movie. Maybe people will end up subbing to it if it turns out better than the game itself (oh wait, it won't have to try to do that unless they try to make the CGI like the game.. what a cringeful thought) :) |

Players come for the game, but they stay for the people- Most Devs have forgotten this. |

The talent involved so far is pretty respectable. While it may not be Oscar material there is no reason to think at this point that it won't be good. |

Originally posted by Razperil Oh no, everyone is entitled to their opinion, how ever there isn't a better IP in the MMO market that should be transferred to a movie. The huge sub base nearly ensures that the movie has a potential huge profit to be made. I'm not going to argue whether or not content within the movie will be good, nor if the lore of warcraft is good or not (It's personally my favorite having read over 10 of the novels so far and still going) because those are opinions. However looking at the MMO market and deciding which game should be funded into a big budget movie, you would be hard pressed to find a better fit then WoW. Why? Well for one the only point I was trying to make is popularity, it has a very big target audience. Next, the expanded/depth of the universe that the novels have created, and the warcraft games up too now - It's big and actually well drawn out (opinion). Yeah, I play WoW, I have since 07 and your attempt at an insult by calling me a "true WoW kid" only further proves my point when I talk about the animosity towards wow shown in the general MMO community. Anyways, I do not only play WoW nor was it my first MMO, my first MMO was tibia back in 2000. Also what High horse are you talking about.... I can't find it, I for sure wasn't sitting on it - I don't even own a horse! |

Apparently they have already cast the main lead and it will be Hugh Jackman. His character is to be a Grizzled war veteran Paladin by the name of xxLegolazzmusdienoobxx

Good one Mael. :)
Anyway brief synopsis of film First 30 minutes is Hugh jackman running around azeroth gathering up 39 other peoples Brief bit of exposition then its off to the frozen north to fight some dead emo dude About an hour of fighting stuff to reach him Then the climax, battle with arthas himself. After that there's a coda lasting 90 minutes where all 40 get to argue over who gets to wear the now properly dead dead emo dudes trousers. |

In 2006, when the movie was first announced, it had the potential of making a huge profit... not today. If it were to be released tomorrow, it *might* turn a small profit. Not enough to justify making it and surely not enough to support idea of a sequel. Take a look at South Park, they did a spoof of WoW when it was very high in it's popularity... if they did that today, people would go... "What's WoW?" Timing is everything. The timing for this movie is way off... they missed the boat. It's been 11 years... you probably have another 5 years to wait... if it ever gets made at all. |

Who did wrong? The advertiser hired to sell the game or the consumer who put faith in advertising? |

Awesome now we get to hear every wowbaby shout about this till it dies , which can't be to soon. Blizz is finding yet another way to milk more cash out of a dying horse.

Originally posted by pmiles I would argue that more people today know about WoW than in 2006. Random people know what WoW is these days, even people that don't play video games. If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game. |

I would be suprised if
-Main character wasn't human -There wouldn't be any corny jokes of gnomes and undeads -There isn't dungeon where group of heroes are going to find some crazy thing -There wouldn't be common enemy that causes both sides to work together |
