Add a CommentI was chatting with someone in PR prior to going to see a screening of Warcraft yesterday and he said in a comforting tone “It isn’t as bad as they say.” Considering it’s at 18% n Rotten Tomatoes, it would have to be pretty bad indeed. Maybe it was my lowered expectations, but I […]
A *mere* five million paid per month players means at least a bililion per year in revenues. And I believe there’s other ways to spend real eorld money within it as well. Not bad ‘tall.
I think this is a film made by a fan for fans. Therefor the reviews by anyone who’s not a fan are pretty much useless. It’s a very devoted fandom as we saw in Jamie Lee Curtis showing up at a premiere as an Orc (IIRC) even though she wasn’t in the film.
I’m guessing it’ll do very well in DVD sales too
Iain,
If you’re making a 150+ million dollar movie, it can’t just be for fans. And films needs to be their own satisfying experience, whether you’re among the most devoted or not.
Duncan Jones begged to make this movie? Danny Cannon begged to make ‘Judge Dredd’ back in 1995, and its failure derailed his career for years.

WoW moved off paid subscription, so those 5 million aren’t necessarily paying customers. It’s not small fry, and I’m sure they make a mint, but they left the paid subscription model like everyone else.
It’s not a fan only movie.I had no idea about it and I got immersed in. I really can’t understand the criticism on this and I’ve seen it three times the third one to nitpick.
Only thing I got was:I Want it longer.
@Iain:
“Therefor the reviews by anyone who’s not a fan are pretty much useless”
Not for people who aren’t fans who are curious about the film. Actually, Heidi’s review is the first thing I’ve read that’s made me think about seeing this.
World of Warcraft is not the only Warcraft property. The earlier RTS games that came before are clearly what the games are based off and where more similarities are found. Easy to forget when zero research is done I suppose.
I agree that the cgi character were more compelling than he human actors. Lots of great detail on chi but the props and costumes looked fake and cheesy. Was hoping for better writing and dialogs. It would help to explain to casual fans and newbies why some orcs are brown or green. ,
“having women casually involved in the story would shrivel the genitals of the boys who want to see the film”
There’s a reason Gamergate originated from nerds and not “jocks” or successful men. Nerds hate women more than any other group.
