if you cut out khadgar being like a patronized 20 year old, the constant repetition of trying to explain everything to the audience who never played any of the games, and then cut out the confusing story jumping and the romance

then you'd have a pretty good warcraft movie

maybe they'll do like a 'tolkien edit' of the film for true fans, except it'd be about 39 minutes long

I enjoyed the premise of a Warcraft film but felt Moses the Orc was played out. I would have rather watched giant ogre sword fights and straight up troll piracy TBH.

My favorite part was how everyone kept whispering about the Fel like there was some big puzzle that needed to be put together but we knew literally everything we needed to know about the Fel from the first five minutes of the movie.

So the evil orc wizard Rasputin makes a magic portal powered by death that lets the orcs come to the human world. The orcs are fleeing their dimension (planet? It's not clear if the orcs live on another planet in our universe or a parallel version of the human world) because it was too polluted by death magic to live in anymore. Then like a bunch of fighting happens because the orcs make war on the humans. Nothing else is important in the movie.
Oh and the good wizard is actually bad.

i cant remember the word used but yeah i noticed they refused to call it fel magic and just move on, they kept re-inventing it and re-explaining it for like a loving hour lmao

FEL MAGIC, GREEN MAGIC, LIKE NECROMANCY OR BLACK MAGIC EXACTLY FROM 2000 YEAR OLD STORIES, GOT IT was all they had to do

if the magic is white = healing, dark green goo oozing out of someones head = evil, plz we get it, i swear we get it

The Sylvester Stallone Judge Dredd was dumb fun that was so stupid it was good. The Warcraft movie is poo poo garbage that's been carefully focus grouped to polish out any possible hint of cheeziness that could be enjoyed ironically.

Don Tacorleone posted:

Every line of dialogue made me cringe. The characters all talk like it's old times, but they also possess a sense of postmodern irony that comes across really awkward and out of place every time it comes up. The acting is terrible and the cinematography is almost, but not quite as slipshod as the Last Airbender movie. Characters keep running from place to place and scene to scene and it feels like the majority of the movie is them rushing to get to a battle, then rushing through the battle as quickly as possible so they can visit the next location. The foreshadowing that the kid wearing the bath towel is going to be the next boss wizard is so ham-fisted it's a wonder why they even bothered to dance around it instead of just having Merlin say "the kid with the bath towel is going to be the next wizard" directly into the camera.

Also, why are all the female orcs skinny supermodels with tiny teeth? I mean, I know why, because fanservice, but come on. I love fanservice and I hated this because it looks like crap. It's lazy. Lazy and lovely. This whole movie is a disgrace.
