Warcraft, the upcoming adaptation of the massively successful World of Warcraft MMORPG video game, has a new trailer! Due to the insane cost over time, I have never played Warcraft. However, like any good MMO gamer, I know about Warcraft, and from the trailer, the movie looks interesting. What stands out the most is that the Orc part of the movie looks exactly like the video game cinematics from Blizzard, but that is exactly why it looks so out of place compared to the live-action parts. It looks like this is half animated and the other half live-action. Maybe future trailers will show scenes where the two blend better but the CGI design is too animated to believe. But who knows, maybe the finish product will look a lot better. Considering that Warcraft was pushed out of December thanks to Star Wars, maybe the extra time will give the animators the ability to add greater details. Otherwise, I absolutely love high fantasy and I want this movie to be great, because high fantasy is in short supply after the end of the Middle Earth saga. Also, if you watch Vikings, you know that Travis Fimmel is great in this type of setting! What do you think of the trailer? Are you interested? Please comment below and let me know!

LOTS of Lord of the Rings influence in this, huh? That makes it interesting to me, even though all I know about the video game is that ... it's a video game. :P It looks like a solid movie to me. We'll see, but maybe it'll be the first actual good movie to come out of a computer game!
ReplyDeleteYes, very much inspired by LOTR. Haha, I don't know anything the story either. I certainly hope it is the first good one!

This movie will certainly be different. It looks very video-gamey right now, maybye the effect is intentional. P.S. What MMO do you play? I used to play LOTRO and now I play SWTOR.
ReplyDelete"very video-gamey" is the perfect terminology. And maybe it is intentional. I am curious as to how it looks on the big screen. And I also play SWTOR and Guild Wars. I am not a hardcore player or anything, but I enjoy playing through the story and PvP. And I have a character on both sides of SWTOR on the Ebon Hawk server.
