New Movie Trailer - War is Coming
Legendary has released the latest Warcraft movie trailer that that utilizes some of the same footage from an earlier trailer along with never-yet-seen images in the one minute spot. The movie is set to be released in late May in the EU and mid-June in North America.

It looks like a 100% forgetable movie to me.
Don't get me wrong I love Warcraft but this movie is 5 years too late for anyone outisde of Warcraft fans to pay any attention too, It might be a good movie but it's going to be box office flop.
All due respect, a Warcraft movie at any point during it's timeline would have been of interest primarily to Warcraft fans. So I don't think it's 5 years too late, I think it's actually very timely. You've got the Warcraft user base (old and new, subscribed and unsubscribed) who will probably go see it. Then I'm sure they're hoping that they'll be able to increase interest in the game with the movie. That's inevitable, but to what degree?
Also, it doesn't really have a great deal to live up to when it comes to movies based on video games

Hodor!
Well... Because your brain is designed to pick up on things that stands out from the norm of what you expect to see, it is survival tool.
That is why fantasy creatures rendered in live action tend to stick out while the same creatures in a full CG environment tend to stick out less and instead things that are supposed to look "real" come off as odd.
Simple answer.
This have been a good conversation
Meanwhile, I would love to see a full CGI Diablo movie.
I'll def be going to see this one in theaters, I don't expect it to be anything other than popcorn fun and that is 100% OK and worth my time and money.
cute logic- but no.
lord of the rings had done an amazing job. harry potter, Pans laberinth...
this just looks like 1981s Dragonslayer movie...who knows maybe thats what they were going for...
She's supposed to be a half-orc, half-human character. Therefore, it's not a fail.
I expect that her character will personify some sort of moral message about different ethnic groups uniting and acting together - against an enemy that does ISIS-type things!

Because she's a half-breed, Einstein.
Plenty of things look off in LOTR series. If it doesn't you were looking at a practical effect or great makeup.
You're 100% right!
It's human nature to believe. That's why it's so easy to fool humans. When we're idle, listening, watching, if we've decided that it's going to be horrible, then we'll be able to looking for things that are bad. Each of the movies mentioned had various scenes/characters with horrendous CGI. Actually, I think that Harry Potter had some of the worst CGI. However, if you're invested in that world, your brain automatically looks over that because you're invested. Same goes for video games, or just about anything else that people want to make "realish".

But that was a tiger... something we can spend a great deal of time to study and body map.
Anyway... Opinions are opinions... Good or bad i have stated the few facts we have on the matter in my previous post and if you feel it looks shite then that is your opinion. My opinion is that it captures the Warcraft world very good so far.

True. pretty much like it captures it in their current game engine.
