  • World of Warcraft the Movie

    I sincerely hope that it will deal with the main story line and contain the big lore heroes and not be a story about 5 noobs going into a dungeon to kill something set in the warcraft universe (which is a really generic fantasy universe).

    No matter what happens it has to be better than Dugeons and Dragons movies..

    Looks like the WoW movie can actually become something good. (Moon director and Blood Diamond writer)

    What I think will make or break this movie for me will be the music. If the music is not up to snuff compared to Jason Hayes early Warcraft music, then i doubt I will get the nostalgia-induced-nerd-frenzy that I'm hoping I'll get from this movie.

    I'd hold on the criticism before we could actually see or test the game.

    Also, I wouldn't get my hopes up because one producer from a game you love is working on this.

    The game is a WoW clone. yet another one. Kotakus article where the designers tried to defend it as not being a WoW clone was laughable.

    it's quite sad, really.

    whatever, just leaves the gates open for everyone else who wants to do something cool.

    Neat trailer, though it was all over the place.

    You mean this article? http://kotaku.com/5918689/the-el…-you-might-fear

    Why not a new zelda rather than an upgrade of the lighting engine ;(

    Why not both? (They said they are making a new zelda, and while we're waiting for it we can play this HD remake).

    Quote from Dark

    WTF was that? Looks like all the money went to the actors; so they grabbed the old GJ JOE script and a few department store looking CG film artists and made a movie.

    This actually reminded me more of the second half of The Rock.

    I guess I should be looking forward to this, then?

    I could only watch 4 minutes of that. The camera cuts just made me uneasy watching it. Maybe I'm growing old

    Quote from Izuno

    Blizzard would have to produce/exec produce the entire thing and get a Hollywood studio to handle distribution...and that's it. The minute you get Hollywood exec producers involved in the creative side it would go to utter shit. (No offense, Hollywood...you can make good movies but movies based on video games that you make are shit.) Now, how many studios with big distribution experience would line up to work with Blizzard and not get creative input? Nice round number.

    This all assumes Blizzard could find the right person to write the script and the right director to make it happen. Without those things it would probably be crap with or without a big external studio meddling in.

    I couldn't agree more. I was simply talking about hiring a good writer as a blizzard employee. I don't think they would need a high profile director as they've clearly shown the ability to produce some quality shots. An engaging story is what they need the most to pull this off imho.

    Its a good point, but collaborating with a decent writer should not be a problem for blizz when making a movie. Just as long as the cinematic department at blizzard creates the damn thing

    That being said, the prequel novels for starcraft 2 by Christie Golden weren't horrendously bad either, so I guess she could try to write a screen play at some point.

    Why blizzard isn't making a movie is beyond me.

    Now this is a bit ridiculous:

    Meh. Its ridiculous to act on it, but I have no problems with that being in the EULA.

    Just finished the 14th and final book of the Wheel of Time series.

    [Blocked Image: http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1336055749l/7743175.jpg]

    The book was over 900 pages of pure awesomeness. So much happened in this final book that the ending left little to be desired. I am extremely happy with the job Brandon Sanderson did on this series after Robert Jordans death.

    Darksiders is a horrible God of War copy imho. It has everything that god of war has, but just a touch worse implemented.

    That being said, God of War is such a great game that even a horrible copy as Darksiders is, its still fucking awesome.

    I love Knoxville in jackass. I cant stand Knoxville in movies. Except jackass movies.

    java is unfortunately everywhere. Only thing i need it for is my online banking. If it hadn't been for that requirement then it would've been out a long time ago.

    Thanks guys

    Work is progressing and we got it to run on our ouya dev station . Just had to turn off a lot of things like the hose (it was running 10 000 physics calculations per frame, which turns out isn't such a good idea).

    Finally up to date with Game Of Thrones...

    I thought you were the kind of guy who would read the books?
