Now as long as they don't let him anywhere near the writer's room, this movie might have a shot at being good. Been a few years since we've had a really good sword and shield fantasy movie on the big screen. Cool!

"Warcraft" is a series of games that tell a story that, for the most part, abruptly ends with WoW due to the lack of ability to tell a cohesive story in an MMO.

The term WORLD refers to the type of gamrplay not the story line. There both the same thing hence WORLD of Warcraft. The term WORLD refers to the type of gamrplay not the story line.

Blizzard has never referred to it was a "World of Warcraft" movie. They've only ever said "Warcraft." To me, there's a huge difference. It's a Warcraft movie, not a WoW movie.

Great series and perfect for a movie adaptation. I just hope Sam Raimi stays out of the writer's room. He really screwed up Spider-Man last go round when him and I think his brother wrote the movie. <br><br>Setting up a good storyline is key for sequels. Few series get the trilogy plot arc right, and only one has really moved beyond three movies successfully (Harry Potter). The Matrix, Batman, Superman, Pirates of the Caribbean, these have all had mixed success in sequel-ville. I've played WoW, and all the Warcraft games (save Warcraft 3).

Well I trust in Blizzard...I'm not playing WoW but I still love their franchises...wouldnt mind a Diablo or Starcraft movie either. But anyway I'm sure they already have a good Idea which can provide a nice Movie as well as a nice flow of money for them and WB :D<br>At this point im not expecting it to create a magic on the screen like Lotr had. I really was like lost in those movies...forgot the world around me and that I'm just watching a movie...and I felt so sad at the end of the third because i realized there wont be another one next year...even if it just would be Frodo taking a crap i would have watched and bought the extended version!<br>But Im very interested in Warcraft and gonna watch it on the biggest screen Berlin can offer :) Yeah the popularity is pretty much the same.
