Oh cool, so it IS a game.
This isn't going to be like one of those playable movies, this is going to be a game you can watch!

It's not supposed to show you plot and shit. That comes later. It's just a neat thing showing off the city.
Eh. Xmen and Spider-man; neither seems to get it right IMO. I so wish these were out of Singer's hands. He had his chance. However, the closer that I am to the source material, the less I seem to like the adapted films. Maybe it's just me.
And no matter how he tries, he'll never be as cool as his dad.

You mean the BLOCKED trailer?
I never get the whole, release a trailer, then have people host the advert for your film for free... then getting pissed off that somebody is hosting your advert for free...
I fixed the image and will work on finding a new video link tonight.
Yeah. I've also thought that it gave the studio an extra level of deniability about SPFX issues. "Well, of course it will look better when the real trailer comes out, this is just an inferior copy!" Elim Garak would approve.
Senator Vreenak will never believe them, of course, but there are other ways to deal with him.

Same here. I like Singer's X-Men.
haven't seen DoFP but X-Men and X-2 were fantastic.
The X-Men movies mostly had pretty good casting, too. Not perfect casting, but pretty solid in most roles.
I knew something was off in those Warcraft posters.
Just wait for the Orcs, it'll be skull central.

It's been a while since I played Warcraft 1, but I'm pretty sure the shoulders were just as big back then... it's just the rest of the armor shrank over the years while the pauldrons remained helmet-sized.[DOUBLEPOST=1436996280,1436996242][/DOUBLEPOST]Maybe it's a Warcraft I or II movie, they weren't as exaggerated back then
....one can hope ;(
Skulls. And Spikes. And fur. And furry, spikey skulls.

If there's no Alizeesque sexy-dancing in this movie, I'm going to be SORELY disappointed.
Night Elves are a long way off, I think. This is gonna be Orcs Vs Humans.

In that case, a mid-credits scene involving the hustle.
The movie is set during the first war, so no night elves.
I mean, technically yeah, this is basically the first game, I think. Blizzard will rewrite lore on a whim, though, so in reality all bets are off (as long as there's plenty of Orc-wank for Lord Metzen).
He's not the only one who loves orc-wank. Only, I like savage, brutal, bloodlusty, murderous orc-wank and not pseudo-tree-hugging shamanic orc-wank.
Besides, it's a film adaptation. It's not going to be the exact same as the games.
Yeah, I don't mind Orcs so much outside of the games, I suppose. In WoW, at least, there's such a heavy focus on them (and Thrall, especially) that it's easy to be jaded about them in general. Them and the Burning Legion, anyway.
Back to the preview, though, I think it was just a bit boring for now. I'm sure it's still early and they need to add music/clean it up/etc, so I'm not totally turned off. I'm definitely curious to see more of the Human side of things, though.
And only 4 characters will ever be on screen at the same time.
And perhaps he'll be cutting mushrooms. W1 was a bit more imaginative in some ways than W2 or W3
