The story of wow will be shitty in a movie. It's too complicated for the big screen imo.

There's a lot of moving pieces, in HawkEye's defense.

I feel like it would be a better experience if its on HBO and has 10+ seasons... There is so much info that they csnn pull from.

Big budget with a great cast. Has a chance to be massive but it could also flop pretty hard

for WoW to be a movie it would have to be multiple movies like lord of the rings, only more.

Even though I love warcraft, I honestly think the movie will suck. I expect it to fall in a category with such recent films as Seventh Son, Jack the Giant Slayer, Snow White & the Huntsman and maybe even be as bad as Prince of Persia.

I think it is just an excuse to capitalize on a known brand with action scenes while showing off some CGI monsters. I can't imagine a 2-hour film being enough to give the characters any depth, especially considering how vast the Medivh's backstory really needs to be to appreciate him.

I have heard that they want to try to make it into a successful series of movies, and I think that's why they are starting so early in the story. If they were making it a one-shot deal, they probably would have cashed in the Thrall or Arthas stories since they are much better.

I find it impossible for the plan to not be a series

There is enough content for 10 movies, but they can't keep making them unless they are profitable
