    So I am assuming everyone here has seen the trailer for the new upcoming Warcraft movie.

    What do you guys think? Looks great to me and I will definitely see it, the CGI looks amazing and the story(the classic orcs invade Azeroth from the original WC campaigns) as well. I feel like it will make profit from the gamers of course, but not too sure if the regular movie-goers will be that into it.

    Wait, what? Is this really happening? I thought that it was either rumors or a very bad joke/hoax. I will try and watch it.

    It has appeal. I agree, though, that I don't know how non-gamer will embrace it. They might go for it.....but I think most of the revenue will come from gamers who are somewhat familiar with the lore.

    If they worked it right, it might bring in "fresh blood" to the game itself, but I'm not holding my breath. Not on a franchise that has been around for a long, long time.

    It seems cool and I'll probably check it out, if not in theaters then at home. It'll be interesting to see some Warcaft lore in a movie.

    I like to watch movies although I am not that interested in this Warcraft movie that I will maybe watch it later home.

    It is appealing, hopefully the story won't be some sort of a let down, I would hate that! :D From the trailer the movie looks awesome.

    The new Warcraft movie actually looks really awesome. The guy directing is David Bowie's son, the same guy who made that really cool Jake Gyllenhal movie a few years ago. I have really high hopes for it. It's been a long time since there has been a good video game movie.

    West, I found out that Duncan Jones, the son of David Bowie, directed it back when he died. When I found out, I was so intrigued! I am starting to think that this might be the groundbreaking video game movie of our times.

    I'm not a big fan of the game but I thought the trailer was alright. It didn't make me want to go and see the movie but I think I'll probably still watch it when it comes out. The CGI looks a little bit off to me but I think it was intentional and I might end up liking it if the movie turns out to be good so I'm reserving judgment until then.

    You are probably wise to reserve your judgment @DeeDee I have this sinking feeling that I will build my hopes up just to have them dashed. The one thing that gives me hope is that when they brought back Dr. Who they did a great job. If that can be done, then we can certainly have a great WOW movie.
