Because Metzen is ass mad he didn't write the original warcraft. He just put his name under it.
Ian Thompson
Nobody cares about Dalaran. Ner'Zhul will probably show up later. Khadgar is fucking cute AF.
Luis Barnes
another gripe, why the FUCK is doomhammer a centralized character in the movie when blizzard killed him off like a common peon in WoD?
Luke Cooper
Plot changes weren't what was wrong with the movie really, I mean, they suck but who cares.
The movie was just really boring, the acting was all around bad to terrible and there was honestly nothing good about the film. It was mostly boringly average with a fair few "wow this is shit" moments and nothing else.
Luke Wilson
>warcraft 3 >wow >original games
Ian Brooks
You have some serious comprehension problems.
Ryan Garcia
Movies about video games are bad
Video games about movies are bad
never forget this advice.
Anthony Wilson
warcarft 3 was good, stop being a hipster faggot.
wow was good up until black temple, again stop being a hipster faggot.
dalaran was a huge part in arthas's story. if Ner'zhul gets introduced later, i have no fucking clue what they're gonna do with him. he was the one who originally opened the dark portal. he also became the lich king.
blizzard fucked this movie up royally.
Cooper Fisher
Riddik?
Gabriel Price
These Warcraft threads really show the pleb status of Sup Forums >Plebs Talk about muh DnD ripoff lore >Patricians Talk about pacing, performances, dialogue, aesthetics
All you fucks can talk about is the rape of what's already shitty lore constantly being rewritten and made up on the spot while you fags don't bother talking about the awful script(worse than regular blizzard writing), bad acting and stupid looking designs that carried like glowing eyes and giant pauldrons
Lincoln White
>complaining about minor autistic details when the entire movie was shit and there will never be a sequel
Dylan Myers
>wow was good up until black temple
you are 100% the hipster faggot if you think TBC didn't enhance wow in every way
Hunter Brooks
I don't get why make some orcs sympathetic early on. Normies like pretty things, plus orcs=bad guy is more or less inside a normie mind.
I'm still so fucking mad about the Arthas Ner'zhul story fuckery in WoW. Whole Warcraft 3 TFT was about either Arthas becomes the new vessel for Ner'zhul or the both merge into a new being. And they change that into muh daddy issues Arthas FUCK METZEN.
Chase Anderson
>Arthas literally, LITERALLY rips out his own heart IN THE SAME EXPANSION to show there is absolutely no hope of redemption and that he is completely gone. >NVM DADDY I FEEL BAD! I DID BAD THINGS AND NOW I FEEL BAD AS I DIE! >TURNS OUT I WAS HOLDING THE UNDEAD BACK SECRETLY >OH, AND I GOT KILLED BY A CHARACTER WHO WAS A LITERAL WHO UP UNTIL THE XPAC, NEVERMIND THE HUGE DEVELOPMENT AND BUILD-UP I HAD TO BE KILLED BY JAINA OR EVEN SYLVANNIS
That was when I knew, without a doubt, that Warcraft was not worth getting upset about and beyond all hope.
Eli Morgan
>up until black temple
everything before it was awesome. sunwell was alright, but black temple was SHIT.
Michael James
lets not forget >you put on the LK crown to control all the Undead like did they forget Ner'zhul was the entire armor?
Robert Cruz
you should see it now
>the legion is eternal and spans across time and space
>WoD takes place on an alternate draenor from a different yet similar timeline
>gul'dan is now resurrected and confirmed to be the big bad for at least the next expansion
pandas who were barely even represented in WC3 got a whole expansion about them solely because of the popularity of kung fu panda. yeah thats right i fucking said it. kung-fu panda is the ONLY reason mists of pandaria was allowed to leave the conceptual stage.
Jackson Bennett
Oh you haven't heard? In some book, Arthas mind-killed Ner'zhul after the events of Frozen Throne. There's no Ner'zhul left.
Ayden Cox
>why the fuck is blizzard trying so hard to ruin everything that made the original warcraft games good? user, this movie is actually quite close to the Orginal game: Warcraft. The RTS game. It(s what the movie is based on, not WoW or Warcfaft 3.
Dylan Anderson
>In some book, Arthas mind-killed Ner'zhul after the events of Frozen Throne
>strong willed warlock who deals with demons and control undead with his own willpower Vs some rich kid tool >arthas won Metzen please.

but its not

.
Angel Nelson
reverse corruption?
Daniel Rogers
It's a 2 hour movie, did you really expect all that shit? It's already bloated for those who don't know the story as it is. The point is the core story is intact.
Samuel Harris
warlocks were a core part of the orc storyline. gul'dan was a big part sure, but he was mentioned mostly in the background. WoD succeeded(albeit really shittily) in turning him into the big bad for the rest of the game's life.
Death Knights(not the WOTLK ones) were one of the major reasons the orcs/warlocks even posed a threat to azeroth.
paladins were a key part in why the humans were able to drive the orcs back.
mannoroth is the whole reason why orcs were green in the first place.
It's a terrible movie; not for the reasons you listed, but because of typical video game movie flaws: bad acting, poor pacing, mess of a plot, hamfisted scenes (Lothar+Garona), and cheesy dialogue that tries overly hard to be serious.
Them not getting the lore right is simply after the fact.
Zachary Butler
>crying about the story in wow >pretending he wouldn't get upset over it you are whining like a little bitch fuckboi
Levi White
>Them not getting the lore right is simply after the fact. them not getting the lore right makes the movie even bad for hardcore fans that care about the lore
Aaron Cook
>bad acting Because it doesn't feel like Titanic?
>poor pacing So it is loyal to the games?
>mess of a plot? See above.
>hamfisted scenes Nice buzzword
>cheesy dialogue that tries to be serious And then you complain about the acting.
>did not get the lore right Are you one of the faggots that complain about anime because it's not loyal to the manga?
Jayden Scott
What are you supposed to play WoW for? The gameplay? LMAO!
Jaxson Hall
Never link that faggot again.
Zachary Anderson
>not getting the lore right It's an adaptation you nigger, it doesn't and can't have to follow to lore 100% doesn't work that way you idiot.
Brandon Powell
titanic was bad, stop it with the retard comparisons overall gr8 b8 m8
Asher Gutierrez
why you don't rike him?
Blake Butler
One word: Metzen That movie was not about a struggle between orcs and humans, it was about the struggle of Duncan and others trying to save the movie from Metzen's stupid shit. They lost.
Carson Baker
Because I'm not 13 years old
Alexander Gomez
>Gul'Dan cheats! This honour duel thing is sacred!
But it's okay when Thrall does it in Draenor.
Landon Cooper
Would you question Moses?
James Myers
you are a legit retard lord of the rings was an adaptation too, did they change shit in the story? did they have gandalf be a warrior instead of a wizard? did they have pippin be the ringbearer instead of frodo? was sauron a woman inside of a cube?
people always say shit like "you can't expect the story to be the same" why? why can't the story be exactly the same?
why did orgrim and durotan have to be from the same clan? why did lothar need a son? why did they have to leave out the drinking of the blood of mannoroth?
you can't name a reason why the movie couldn't have held true to current warcraft canon
Ryan Ward
Doomhammer was very important... in the original timeline.
Khadgar didn't even have a beard until he was cursed to prematurally Age
Ner'zhul is solely a Warcraft 2 character.
Dalaran flying is stupid though.
Carson Ortiz
>did they change shit in the story? yes, they did, retard
Dominic Diaz
There was nerzhul with the other warlords. He grabbed guldans staff in one scene.
Jason Harris
Of course. The bastard would win his honor duel by whipping out nine plagues.
Zachary Torres
>Ner'zhul >was the closest thing the orcish race had to a single leader prior to the foundation of the Horde
William Evans
the Women inside the Cube was Medivah's Mom, a real character.
Warcraft 1 is so vague in story telling it is very bendable, the only events that are concrete is that Stormwind eventually loses, and Llane dies to Garona.
Luis Price
no they didn't other than leaving out tom bombadil, the story was the same
Lincoln Davis
>bad acting >Because it doesn't feel like Titanic?
What kind of shit argument is that? Most actors have either a vacant look on their face or they look like they could burst into tears at any seconds. The king looks like a fish and 50% of the time an human actor open their mouth to speak, the scene turns into a cringe fest. The acting in this movie was not only bad it was fucking abysmal.
Brayden Baker
kekckaroo... kekeke... kekeeeee
Landon Jenkins
Ner'zhul is back on Dreanor, just as he was in Warcraft 1 and 2.
Brody Foster
>Khadgar is fucking cute AF I knew I wasn't the only one Khadgar was literally the only thing I liked about the movie
Charles Mitchell
yes? and he sit all of Warcraft 1's plot out, he appeares ONLY in Warcraft 2, and leads from Dreanor and doesn't even enter fucking Azeroth.
well Doomhammer offically leads anyways.
Jaxon Wood
>the Women inside the Cube was Medivah's Mom, a real character. that was never explicitly stated, the only name given was alodi, which wasn't medivh's mother, it was the name of the first guardian >Warcraft 1 is so vague in story telling it is very bendable in warcraft orcs and humans, the videogame? yes guess what bozo, since then the story has been told in more detail read the last guardian read rise of the horde we know tons of details about the first war, and the corruption of the orcs
Alodi is the cube itself, the lady in the cube is Medivah's Mom.
Alodi is real too, in game universe.
Aiden Garcia
The orcs want to have a word with you.
And turns out humans are not really expressive in real life, the movie is realistic. Again, not everything is Titanic.
David Green
leaving out things =/= making changes now go back to sucking your boyfriend's cock
Jose Butler
1. either way, they made a person, alodi, into a cube, which is a change to the story, nutgobbler 2. the woman is never stated to be aegwynn, you waste of space
Nicholas Edwards
>wikia Niiiiiice soooource.....
Blake Richardson
changing time, setting, characters, motivations, events, histories = changes to the story = making changes
please try harder, you're not trying harder
Austin Ortiz
why would aegwynn live inside a cube?
Jaxson Davis
You don't know the lore, try reading the books.
Aaron Smith
>changing time, setting, characters, motivations, events, histories none of that was done but even if, that would just make the lotr films just as shit
Liam Robinson
Why would you live inside your basement?
Eli Flores
except it was, sorry to tell you
Chase Parker

Adrian Edwards

Christopher Turner
gr8 b8 m8 everything I said is true alodi was a person, and the first guardian of tirisfal, not a cube wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Alodi
aegwynn was a person and didn't live inside of a cube
Ryder Kelly
Once again, try reading the books instead of restraining yourself to a wikia that I can edit at any moment. The movie makes a valid interpretation. You don't know that because you are a poser.
Jayden Adams
to fuck your mom
Luis Wilson
>not naming any examples the bait is strong in this one
Ayden Hall
Not a good movie? Maybe.
Best vidya movie yet? Yes.
Caleb Ross
Then why are you still a virgin?
Julian Diaz
I did read the books imbecile your bait doesn't work
Nolan Cook
google it, lazy
Blake Reed
I'm not I fuck your mom every day
Jason Williams
All I can think then is that you didn't pay attention, and screaming "BAAAAAAIT" doesn't really make you right, a lie doesn't become the truth even if repeated 1000 times.
Honestly you are in the worst position to watch the movies. It is either for people that don't know anything about the lore, or for people who know a lot. You are in a middle position where you don't know shit but you think you know a lot.
Xavier Diaz
Why are you still a virgin then?

now thats autism
James Moore
I really liked the movie, I don't know why some other "fans" of warcraft doesnt like it. Yeah non-fans wouldn't probably get half of the stuff but if you consider yourself a fan, you should've been at least enjoyed the movie..
Chase Davis
...
Jack Adams
Pacing was fucked, but there's 40 minutes of cut footage so that's probably why. Performances were complete garbage on the humans end, Kadghar being the only acceptable one. Dialogue was okay, Gul'Dan had the best lines. Aesthetics were probably the movie's strongest point, everything looked great aside from some scenes and the elves. Why were their teeth pink?
The lore changes were annoying, but I know it was so the movie progressed in a certain way. Following movie formula more properly. WC1 lore is a clusterfuck anyhow with changes happening since Lord of the Clans.
Brandon Sanders
game universe =/= movie universe
if thrall cheats in a later movie i'll edit this.
Lucas Taylor
Please, original mortal Kombat was more enjoyable
Aaron Howard
Except for completely cutting out the Scouring of the Shire.
Joshua Morgan
Aladdin for the SNES is pretty fucking good Also Alien 3 for the SNES Motherfucking Riddick A bunch of Spiderman games Even the Wolverine by Raven Studios is better than the damned movie
Anthony Thomas
>Even Sup Forums thought the movie was 7/10
Just further proof Nostcucks like to shit up anything Blizzard related.
It's a movie made for gamers that gamers did not like, and average moviegoers thought as cheap, and the only ones who enjoyed it were entry level geeks like myself that now about the campiness of WoW but never invested in it, because it was always kinda lame.
Easton Roberts
W1 didn't have paladins, death knights, mannoroth or archimonde you piece of shit.
