Why did they never make a warcraft 3 movie?
Warcraft 1 flopped so they didn't do Warcraft 2
>>222589686Maybe they thought chaos and the void demons and all that shit was a bit much for audiences who didn't already know the story? Maybe the Lich King and his army of skeles was a bit too outlandish? All that stuff plus including the night elves would have been too much for one movie.
>>222589686
because video game movies are all shitno exceptions
>>222589830>best character>best story>best expansionhe'd have also been the best intro to normies for WoW movies. chaos, void demons and orcs are a bit much. anyone can understand a fallen prince story. cast a big titty blonde for jaina, some grey haired oscar winners as uther and terenas, and youre good to go. then you can start spoon feeding audiences the weirder shit
Arthas was just a ripoff of Sephiroth
>>222589686Warcraft 2 > Warcraft 3Orcs are demonic mongols, not noble savages
>>222590203The MCU actually did this right. First they did Iron Man, Hulk, and Iron Man 2. Grounded, simple stories contained on Earth. Then they branched out into some cosmic shit with Thor, the first Captain America and Avengers. It wasn't until Phases 2 and 3 that they really started branching out into stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy and Doctor Strange.
>>222589686Warcraft 1 bomb, but despite how goofy the movie looked, I still enjoyed it when it came out. Even if they went with a more “realistic” art direction the movie still would’ve bombed anyway. Blizzard should’ve had their animation team work overtime to make an animated film, would’ve translated a whole lot better.
>>222590473fans have been asking for a full length cinematic movie ever since BC lol. never gonna happen
>>222589830I had never been involved in this universe before watching the film, not for a single second (and I still haven't), yet I really enjoyed it. Monsters go smash and humans in medieval armor, of course I'm in.
lich King is a shitty overrated villain
>>222590521https://youtu.be/YBn8RB2kxRk?is=pUuZtye1Tojfv3L0I know Blizzard is just a shadow of its former self, but it’s crazy how all these years later and something like this still holds up
>>222590715they got even better at it too. i quit after Cataclysm but kept up with the lore. some of the cinematics from expansions like Battle for Azeroth were very impressive (visually only, of course)
>>222589686Because "muh faction balance" completely destroyed the first Warcraft movie in it's crib and made any future Warcraft movie impossible. Blizzard is too brain-broken by their MMO. Maybe we get one, once Blizzard is bankrupt and WOW shuts down, so we can get someone else picking up the pieces.
>>222590737yeah but that's the point: visually all of the WoW shit is great, but it lacks any form of depthWC3 was peak. This right here is the best cinematic Blizzard ever made, and that was 23 years ago:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErAXL5pspP0Most war
>>222589686because frozen throne is cringe and killed the ip
>>222589686because they screwed the first one up, just like they screwed the games up. honestly i hate wow. They should have just made warcraft 4 and let us play as the lich king
>>222590003kek this tool me a sec. Totally forgot about this.
>>222590594Yeah ok but do you remember anything from the movie? I watched it and it wasn't bad but I can't remember a single scene or what the plot was about. It wasn't about the WC3 story, that has about a dozen more characters and multiple other factions that were never introduced. They wouldn't have had any time for "monsters go smash" if they needed to include all the things from WC3
>>222591039>play as the lich kingThat's not how strategy games work, MMOtard.
>>222590203yeah you're forgetting about the other 3 whole factions full of characters that are in the game
>>222591147>Yeah ok but do you remember anything from the movie?Evil orc boss feeds on the "fel" that destroys every living thing, uses it to teleport the orcs to the human planet, then it happens that not all orcs are bad and they kinda want to team with humans to defeat orc boss, and orc bimbo is hot as fuck. Am I good?
can they do it
>>222591289Yeah that sounds familiar except the part about the orc being hot
>>222590269>He didn't play the wc2 expansionYIKESIKES
>>222590473If the live-action movie bombed, an animated high fantasy movie would've bombed a hundred times worse. Massive box office hits in animation are almost exclusively four-quadrant films targeting all ages and genders. . Little girls and their families are not going to show up for a CG animated WarCraft movie. And Make no mistake, a 90-minute movie in the style of Blizzard's cinematics would need a massive budget.
>>222591300They'd have to make a movie of this before anyone makes a 40k movie or it will be laughed out of the theaters
>>222590269>the game that is mechanically inferior in every possible way is the good onenostalgia is a hell of a drug
>>222589686Probably would have if that first Warcraft movie hadn't flopped.Honestly I thought that movie was alright. I guess the plot was too convoluted and it had a lot of flat acting.
>>222591324This one.
>>222591403I don't like women with man faces
>>222591430>I don't like womenremove yourself from the conversation bud
>>222591452whoops you seem to have stopped reading after a mere 4 words. I understand it must be a lot of effort but keep at it. You'll make it to the end of the sentence one day, I'm sure.
>>222591375W2 has better music, graphics and art direction. Professional pixel art mogs the shitty low polygonal models. W3 was a shitshow.
>>222591894I don't believe you were alive when wc3 came out. It was fucking incredible.
>>222590003Funny thing is it just came out that all of this shit was false accusations ,was made up and lies.
>>222592037It could be incredible only if you were a kid or an easily impressed retard.There's a whole generation of DirectX 8 games suffering from horrible 3D graphics, Gothic, Warcraft 3 and Morrowind being the worst examples of it. This downgrade, compared to the quality of 2D and pre- rendered 3D, was unbelievable. I was so angry that I stopped to give a damn about new games for years. The last straw was Max Payne 2 with its downgraded graphics and gameplay changed from corridor shooter to arena shooter.
>>222592243Almost all women reporting crimes like this or rape are just fabrications.They dont receive punishment.Their targets never get repaired reputation.
>>222589686that warcraft movie came out and the jews were too focused on trying to make a cinematic universe so they thought they had to start with warcraft 1 and a story with character nobody gives a shit about. it obviously flopped hard. if they would have just made a movie about arthas going evil the movie would have made billions
>>222591403couldn't have made an uglier female orc if you tried, it's like the soul had been completely stripped from the franchiseevery aspect of the live action of this movie was a humiliation ritual
>>222592506True, and if it was successful they could have later made Warcraft I and Warcraft II prequels.
>>222592401>horrible 3D graphicsthis is how I know you weren't alive. You had nothing to compare them to to make that judgement. You're speaking with the benefit of hindsight.
>>222589686Blizzard killed turtle wow and for this they will never be forgiven
>>222592591octowow exists
>>222592544Seeing a decade of games and the slow progress of graphics, from 2D and pre- rendered 3D to real 3D backed by hardware accelerators (yes fucker, I managed to get a Voodoo 3DFX in 1997) allows you to make a perfectly objective judgement about graphics in early 2000s. The games I mentioned sucked. Hard. Even sellouts from the press noticed it.So which one were you at the time? A dumb kid or easily impressed retard? Are you even white?
>>222592591>>222592628>playing WoW in the big 2026it’s time to let go, that feeling will never come back, you know the one, we all know it.
>>222592628For how long? I had hand of rag for a week before they got shut down I’m not playing on a server that isn’t going to get blizzard buttfucked and go through all that again.
>>222592833I don't see anyone playing wc2 today. Meanwhile I can still find custom games in wc3 even after the Reforged debacle. Not to mention the constant whining from people that want to play wc3 but have some weird hangup over reforged. People are still playing and talking about Morrowind and Gothic too. The only 2d games from that era that are still played are the absolute classics with great gameplay.
>>222592861The last stage of grief is a private WoW server
>>222592960OK, I get it, W3 is the baby's first PC game. Of course the baby says it had the best graphics ever, because there was nothing before W3.
>>222589686Because Blizzard fumbled the bag hard and now nobody cares about Warcraft.
>>222592861Warcraft has had massive influence on fantasy for better or for worse. It makes sense that people don’t want to let it go especially since Blizzard has raped it into irrelevance
>>222593056I haven't actually mentioned anything about graphics, that was all you. My first post explicitly stated the mechanics were better in every way, which they were, and that's what makes a game good. It's fitting that you're here instead of on /v/ because you seem to care a lot more about watching games than playing them.
>>222591353They really aren't that similar at all.. Terran pulls from Starship Troopers more than anything. Sure, they use space marine armor, but they are also disposable soldiers and not unstoppable killing machines like 40k.
>>222593247Starcraft was supposed to be based on W40K. The lack of license made them go for an original setting.
>>222593247Nobody unfamiliar with both franchises is going to see that. They'll be too busy looking at the zerg-tyranids and the eldar-protoss
>>222592481>Their targets never get repaired reputationLikely a facet of the great injustice of our justice system>sexual assault is a criminal issue>hugely popular rape cases posted all over media>charges get dropped due to no evidence>police either don't investigate further, find no evidence to depict false accusations, or encounter some other investigative issue/negligence >it is now a civil matter to get your reputation back>notoriously expensive affair>after a person's been publicly ruined because at least 60% of the population is too god damn stupid to wait for evidence before forming a solid opinion>probably out of work and barely getting by because nobody wants to hire a liability and potential rapist>no money for civil case>no recourseGG. Devs have left reality P2W for ages, and it only ever gets worse. >>222592628The PVP server desperately needs more population. I refuse to play PVE pussy servers, especially when they have gay crossfaction bullshit. Tel'Abim's pop was already bad enough, and Yshaarj has half of what TA's was.
>>222589686What happened to Arthas? Hos mouth looks weird, did he get vaxxed?
>>222593247>not unstoppable killing machines like 40k40k marines are slightly less disposable soldiers the universe is so absurdly power scaled
>>222590003>>222592243I mean when I heard this story I though about my wife and I when we had our first kid. In no way would you ever convince my wife to pump at work or more importantly put that milk into a company fridge. Not to mention my wife was off on maternity leave long enough to transition our kid to formula. It always sounded like a suspect story even at its height.
>>222594041I mean you should have told all your reddit friends that. I mean why didn't you. I mean you knew it was bs. I mean come on I mean
