What ever happened to that EQ movie?


That was canceled after SOE tried to pay the producer and staff with LoN boosters and lifetime subscriptions of every game on their current roster. In which the producer replied "No loot cards?"

Tend to? Is there one that people can honestly say doesn't suck?  I suppose there's always a first for something though.

I still say in the right hands Half Life could be a badass movie but after seeing what Hollywood usually does with these movies maybe it's better they never tried.

Since Blizzard said the Movie will take place After WC3 and before WoW, this seems to suggest the Story line of the Scarlet Crusade and Argent Dawn, which was both born and fractered during that period. The Ashbring hit the spot duing that period

True that, it's a Warcraft movie, not a WoW movie, at least for now.

We just got heads up for who will be in charge of the story in the 'Warcraft' movie. Yup! Blizzard's big bad game is moving on to the big screen. Director Sam Raimi talked to MTVNews about how he will tackle the 'Warcraft' movie and who will pen the story, while also giving us an idea of the overall process as of now:

"We want to be really faithful to the game…to the Horde and the Alliance and the mythology that takes place in the game, and the archetypes that the game presents. I think we would try and find touchstones within the game to make it accurate and true and choose one or some of the lands that are portrayed in the game with as much accuracy and authenticity as possible.

"But we would have our writer, Robert Rodat, really craft an original story within that world that feels like a 'World of WarCraft' adventure. Only obviously it's very different 'cause it's expanded and translated into the world of a motion picture."

Robert Rodat previous work was 'Saving Private Ryan' and 'The Patriot'. He had this to say about writing for the 'Warcraft' movie:

"I've never made a video game movie, but my approach would be to work with the best character writer I can find, which in this case is Robert Rodat, and tell a great character story within the fantastic environment of the world of WarCraft, while staying true to their mythology."

Well there you have it, either some of you are going to sleep happy or will be raging on the internet. I think this is a wonderful choice for the 'Warcraft' movie, but still videogame to movie usually tend to suck.

 

 

If it stays in line with the game, does this mean the movie will go from beginning to end in 5 minutes very easily? Will we see characters bunny hopping across the screen and ninja looting treasure from one another? Or arguing about who gets the treasure? Will the character's be yelling Leroy Jenkins or making constant boob and Chuck Norris jokes?

 

Just curious.

Don't be confused. I don't hate the game, I hate the community it spawned.

If you knew I wasn't serious, then why respond with that comment? Oh I forgot, your forum name gives it away.

I'm finding WoW players are much like religious fanatics.  One track minds and you can't have an opinion on anything outside of their way of thinking or else your wrong and bound for hell. =P

It will be intresting how they actually film the movie. Will they have cartoony looking costumes and landscapes? Will they use decent actors and actresess? Intresting to see. If they go "regular Look" it'll turn WOW fans off. Im keeping my eye on this one.

About a warcraft movie, I just have images of the Dungeons and Dragons movie and Dungeon Siege.


 

Yeah, I had a feeling someone might mention that one.  I didn't care for it myself but to be fair it certainly wasn't near the suckage the D&D movie or especially the Dungeon Siege movie was.

That "In the Name of  the King" movie was the pits.  I'm still trying to fathom how they duped Ray Liotta and Jason Statham to be in that.  I know Statham takes some real questionable movie roles at times but sweet jesus was "In the Name of the King" a stinker.

The Hitman movie wasn't a bad game to movie adaptation, but for the most part most game to movie attempts are pretty sad if not out right bad.

Any movie based on a video game that does not involve zombies and people eating each other are always bad.

I can't say anything about the Warcraft RTSs but I enjoyed Diablo and The Star Craft and so did a lot of people a whole lot of people.

If you hate everything they do why don't you go check out some other games and play them rather than waste your time hating. 

I know I hate sports but it would be a waste of my time to go to a basketball forum and tell them that their game sucks.

Why waste your time go do something fun.

well wouldn't the scourge be like zombies?

not to mention it is Rami...so bruce campbell could be like arhas or something j/k lol

i hope they just make a movie and don't try to incorporate game stuff into the movie like they did with doom...first person view for the loss.
