I like Legendary Pictures but not sure about this.

The Humans in WarCraft world are far different then real world actors physically and it just looks odd. Besides if they don't have a sub-level 15 killing 100,000 boars to level up it will loose its authenticity

I'll still watch it.

I don't like it, I find the hybrid between real actor and CGI is weird. About the same complaint like Good Dinosaur.
Either with full CGI ala their game cinematic or live action with non-fantasy CGI tone.

has nothing to do with WoW though.

WoW began after the end of Warcraft 3. This movie is about Warcraft 1 story.

Even the main hero in the movie is already long dead by the time of WoW (you could visit his legacy statue in burning steppes)

made me smile : ) there is a deep truth behind your words; WoW has always been about the grind. This is where GW 2 wins.

I keep wishing there'd be a WarCraft IV which would be RTS again instead of more WoW-shit. Not interested in watching this. But I am for
Assassin's Creed.

Naaaah most but not all.

Resident Evil (1) was a pretty strong showing for a game > movie conversion imo. After that it went downhill really fast.

Did you watch Silent Hill? It gets frighteningly close to the game too, acting not top notch but for horror that's more a staple than anything else

Tomb Raider also wasn't that bad, high Hollywood factor but still.

Hitman, I am not entirely sure what to think, but Agent 47's actor looks like a gaylord which is a shame. They should have gone for Christian Bale or something, not some random n00b who looks like he just learned how to count to ten.

However I am still miffed that there isn't a Mass Effect movie release yet. That universe is just *screaming* for a full trilogy, or even as a full blown series. It has everything including boatloads of interesting characters and lore, moral and ethical dilemma, etc etc etc.

I would rather that they remade Warcraft 1 with a modern engine. Awesome story IMHO but, I don't exactly want to play a game in DOSBox. :)
