Duncan Jones' Warcraft - Part 1

[Voltron]

I'd be great if Travis Fimmel's character get's a big role in this.

 

[redhawk23]

I'm excited to see Ben Foster. He's one of my favorite actors. I've always thought he deserved better roles.

I've never played Warcraft so I don't know much about Anduin Lothar but it looks like he's being promoted as the main/lead actor in this. I think he will get plenty of screen time.

I hope it goes well for him though, huge fan of Travis and Vikings.

 

[Voltron]

I don't play it too, but I'm a fan of Vikings and Ragnar. Travis' acting and Ragnar has grown and improved so much if you compare the first and last seasons of Vikings.

I'm sure Travis' Lothar will be great where he definitely has the intensity and that medieval look down.

 

[Tim_Riggins]

Lothar is one of the big leads, if the movies follow the story closely, then his part will be even bigger in the second one.

 

[Voltron]

^^^ Good to read.

I just checked out the game version of Lothar, and Travis looks nothing like the game's version! Not sure if gamers find that a problem or not.

I don't know. When I look at Travis with beard he looks like young Lothar to me. I cannot find any good WarCraft 1 image of him, but look at this... It's like the same man in two different ages.

Someone like Vin Diesel would visually really stick out, but Travis looks great as Lothar, imo. Do you have any images of Lothar from WC1?

 

[Consona]

Was looking at Blizzcon schedule and there's no WarCraft film panel

Loved the music to the teaser trailer, wonder if it's original since I don't think I've heard it before. .

i think the music is from 300 Rise of an Empire

 

[dark_b]

I don't get the complaints that the orcs look too human. They might not be green-skinned and red-eyed, but they still look like orcs to me. They look a lot less human than the LOTR orcs (who also looked awesome).

i think they are green skinned when running over the snow.

 

[GR8GODZILLAGOD]

i think they are green skinned when running over the snow.

For those who aren't aware, the orcs were brown before they drank the blood of Mannoroth. Not all of them drank it and either stayed brown or turned green as well from being near fel energy. You can see green orcs in the trailer and they were green as well in the comic con footage. Ogrim even pointed it out.

No image from WC1.

Yeah I thought they'd cast someone older in their 50's.

Nice, I'll check it out.

No film panel, but this is what World of Warcraft's official Twitter page said regarding the trailer:

It will probably be on Legendary's YouTube page at the same time or shortly after it airs at BlizzCon.

 

[Consona]

But I was looking forward to some chit-chat between Jones and Metzen and actors... hm...

 

[Consona]

No image from WC1.

Yeah I thought they'd cast someone older in their 50's.

Here are some WC1 images of him and you're right, he's much older in the games.

 

[The Face]

I'm really excited for this film. I know little to nothing about the game but as a fan of fantasy (film, television, literature) this movie looks distinct (a very bright colour palette rather then the shades of black and grey from a lot of modern fantasy) while also being tons of fun.
Can't wait!

 

[Rowsdower!]

When does the full trailer premiere?

 

[Silvermoon]

When does the full trailer premiere?

I've been hearing some say that the trailer will kick off the Blizzcon 'opening ceremonies' at 11am pacific (just a little over 3 1/2 hours from now).... don't know whether that's true or not (or if it will simply be shown 'at some point' during the opening of Blizzcon)

 

[Rowsdower!]

Cool, thanks.

BlizzCon live stream site.

3 hours to go.

^^^This looks more like Travis' Lothar. The movie went with this younger version.

Man, I can't wait.

 

[Silvermoon]

About 1 hour to go until the start of Blizzcon

 

[Silvermoon]

Okay, this is what happens when I start to watch things over and over and over....

Anyone else notice that this guy is barefoot?

 

[terry78]

So are we supposed to have this thing yet or what? I suspect Spectre may have it attached.
