At least the D&D movie had Jeremy Irons.
I'm excited.
You sure do spell Thora Birch funny.
I'll wait to the day's end when the moon is high
And then I'll rise with the tide with a lust for life, I'll
Amass an army, and we'll harness a horde
And then we'll limp across the land until we stand at the shore
+1I was hopping the movie would be animated like those amazing trailers they make
HEY! You take that back! I love the D&D movie, it's one of the most unintentionally (well okay, Jeremy Irons knew damn well what he was doing) funny movies I've ever seen in my life. The movie does absolutely nothing right, yet still managed to emerge as a beautiful butterfly of absolute awfulness. It's the cinematic equivalent of Hitler In Springtime, and it is GLORIOUS. There's no way you can watch this guy in action and not literally ROFL, unless you're a communist or a robot.
I would love to see a full featured film like Lord of the Rings with a real live cast, but if blizzard is involved and it is animated it will be just as good imho. If nothing else it will have a huge nerd showing. I'm already looking forward to it!
edit: Not sure why folks are comparing the D&D movie to something like World of Warcraft. Many, many other films have been developed from fantasy. /shrug
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not.
I hope to god that it is animated. I don't have much faith in companies bringing game/animated series's lore to life in live action anymore after seeing how terrible the Dragonball Z movie was. I still can't believe how bad they screwed the pooch on that one. All they had to do was have the Wachowski brothers make it and use the same type of fight scenes they used in the final battle in Matrix: Revolutions and add in beams/waves/energy balls/etc.
Playing - Minecraft, 7 Days To Die, Darkfall:ROA, Path of Exile
Waiting for -
Talk about pressure putting out a release date before they have even gotten the movie production started more than just a script and a director.
You could hope for a good movie but im very sceptic, havent seen if any good movie script been made after a game.

The movie had nothing to do with "WoW" its a "Warcraft" movie likley going to focus on passed events.
"Chris Metzen, Blizzard's VP of Creative Development, stated that the "Warcraft" film was originally set in the era of Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, however that idea was dropped. It was believed that the story would be too similar to "The Lord of the Rings", and that Warcraft had reached its current level of popularity through its Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG), rather than the previous Real-Time Strategy (RTS) games. The movie will primarily be told from the Alliance's point of view, though Chris Metzen says his heart lies with the Horde. Metzen said that the main character is set to be a new hero described as a "kick-ass Human" and an "Anti-Thrall"."
