- I waited this film for decades... I cant say, that I'm satisfied. Can't say I'm dissapointed. It was a good show, but I was expecting a bit more, after so many years of waiting. But I'm glad that they made the movie. And I'm waiting for the next one!

When you pull too much, but level up in the middle of battle
That's what it feels like to chew 5gum
LMFAO
This is so accurate I had to like it again several years later
This movie was much better than critics reviews. The parallel sacrifices of the orc and human leaders was brilliantly done.
The problem was not with the movie itself - it was well done and very accurate to the game. The problem was that most of the critics never played WC or WoW. They ware constantly comparing this move to Lord of the rings ,how the orcs look different here (not like the LOTR). The problem is that they look just like the game , which is perfect but not for them.
The other problem is that they tried to put to much story in a short movie and didnt have time to develop the characters completely . Like the Dalaran scene -why would the Kirin Tur give access to some low lvl mage to the forbidden pleases just like that (they didn't explained it). I think that if the movie was animated instead - it would of had much bigger score.
Yup problem of any movie made of a source that is from outside of the movie industry or is simply unknown to most people. There already goes over the critics heads the pros like movie staying true to the source material cause they simply wont see it.
But there is also an interesting case coming that is kinda reversed. Cause when the witcher tv series will drop people will compare it to the video game cause thats what most critics will know, meanwhile they are non canon to the plot of the series and has 0 influence on it, even if they were (being set way after the books plot). It's gonna be funny to see those reviews as wel.
Professional critic is a nice way of saying basement dwellers. The movie profit margin was positive that’s all that matters even though they twiggled a bit with a lore such as, not showing that Garona was the agent of guldan, that llane wasn’t murdered in the battle but in the stormwind keep and that khadgar didn’t age, it’s fine I don’t care I fucking loved every bit of movie
I'm not into games, so I never played WOW - I didn't even know that it is about Orcs and Humans and Mages and so on. But I decided that the idea of making a game into a movie sounded really cool and due the fact that I like fantasy I thought I might give it a try.
It was - for me - absolutely worth it. I loved the actors, I liked the plot a lot, the music was brilliant and the effects/CGI were sometimes kinda 'special' but they fit the movie veeeery well, and I (even thought I new nothing about WOW) did understand most of the movie just perfectly, even without any WOW knowledge.
Sure - I've no idea who or what Kirin Tur is/does/mean. And I don't understand why there is only 1 apprentice to the greatest mage of all. The idea of him living in a tower sure has a reason, which I didn't catch and I'm unsure what exaclty the (sry) kind of swimming-pool-power-bar in that tower is.
BUT - all of that didn't give me trouble understanding the movie. And that was great. Cause all of the WOW players know the stuff I'm writing above and it's just fair that they know and understand and maybe dwell on the fact that this and that detail found place in the movie. Cause after all this movie was inspired by a game. A game that only became so pupular because of all its gamers.
So...I'm still looking forward the part 2 and 3. Maybe in vain. Hopfully not.
@@mowtow90 agreed!! If the movie is a free adaptation (like RE, silent hill etc) most fans would ne disapointed, but if they made it exactly like the actual game, critics whose never played the game would've said its a trash movie... I played wc2 - wc3 and tought this movie was accurate enough for hours of campaign story gameplay crammed into 120 minutes movie, what more can we expect....
I really like how they portrayed magic or at least its use on film. The special effects for the magic was fantastic.
The most realistoc magic ive ever seen in CGI, as far as magic can be realistic.
@@Mediados What do you mean? The magic in this movie sucks as hell. This is far from realistic and it's just like childrens fantasy. Ridiculous.
@@user-qj9ho2xf7u Well thats your opinion, but they really put some great effects in there, we think. But i mean there isnt much to debate about since we can only say "i think its realistic" and "i dont".
Its actually quite hard to come up with arguments regarding what looks realistic and what not.
@@user-qj9ho2xf7u bcuz magic is realistic xD
@@user-qj9ho2xf7u It's a world of warcraft move you twat. He's saying the special effects were done so well that the magic was believable
I never understood the grief that this movie got from people, I am a die hard fan of this series and have digested FAR FAR FAR to much of its lore and yet I loved this movie and I'm not afraid to say it! The TLC thrown into every scene, the little easter eggs for people to find... it all so lovingly done,I cherish this movie and i PRAY they deem it worthy enough for a sequel some day.
For me (as a lore fan as well) that in, lies the problem. There won't be a sequel because they crammed SO MUCH into this and therefore unless they go into a different section of lore... They won't continue. This had so many changes to it that altered the real lore and because of that, it would be hard to keep going.
Shame, I was really excited for and still enjoy it for the effort they put in. Overall, it's a gorgeous film. The details and iconic images made me gush when I saw it in the theater... But the things they changed made me disappointed.
only problem is that we got 1 movie rather than 3 and you should understand that as well :D
@@hotarushidosha that's why if they ever do make another it would most likely be about Arthas. It's what I'm hoping anyway.
@@NordicJarl27 well let's hope if they do, they do it right.
@@hotarushidosha yep definitely. I agree with everyone. It's a good movie imo it's a great movie. But as someone who loves lore and been learning about warcraft lore for a couple of years they definitely tried to cram alot In this. When they could of just made it into a trilogy like lotr or Harry Potter.
The lore may not be accurate like in the game and books but I don't really blame them for altering some stuff due to some of the viewers being newcomers but also trying to appeal to those who played the games and read the books.
5:05 Khadgar literally levelled up 😂😂😂
he got class upgrade :D
Lothar: "OH GOD, WHAT SHALL WE DO? HE'S TURNING INTO A DEMON!"
Khadgar: "Hold my mage water!"
Mage water? U mean Mana potion ?
@@Arhentir Mage water. Period. :D
@@R4Y2k I guess its a bit of Sunwell water and some of Khadgar's personal DNA mix.
Yo mean Mana Puding :D Water is around level 10 ish :D
The only real problem with this movie is it didn't spend enough time explaining anything hardly, a lot of it assumed you knew of warcraft lore beforehand, and other stuff that wasn't really explained well
LOTR did a very good job of explaining the backstory in the movies, Warcraft didn't say anything
@@craigscott849 a difference in playtime really opens up for that stuff.
Well the game is like that too gotta play like the 2 and 3 to have a good understanding of the storyline
They should've done Arthus/Lich King movie. Would've been better.
It would've explained that Arthus a prince is out to solve whatever's happening on the countryside or whatever (I forgot the story...)
The undead turning up in the village being fed rigged foods which turns them into undead. And it would've been a better storyline/movie.
Even then, as a veteran from the second Warcraft game (really the first but w/e ) I was so confused for most of the movie. They changed the story so much that I got lost 3/4 of the way through.
The spells cast by possessed Medivh are golden and look much more precise and refined than the rest of the arcane-blue-ish spells cast by Khadgar and normal Medivh, I'm guessing this is what titan level of spell casting looks like in the cinematic universe. Awesome bit of detail and lore right fucking there.
Is probably the more advance form of fel
That was Sargeras
Gonzalo P in the game, golden color spell represents holy light magic, which is used by priests and paladins.
@@gamer7916 ANd titan magic
@@williamschlass4598 its called arcane magic and its represented in blue and purple
I love the fact that the golem is constantly speaking.
Forget about the humans. The CGI was amazing. Esp the ORCS and the magic.
And human soldiers' animation, and the griffon in particular, is insane. 100% lifelike.
Exactly
Khadgar.. giving hope to all college dropouts
😂😂😂
Pretty much his main purpose in the blizzard universe now that you mention it
When there are No Healers around to Purify, The Mage was Like “I have to Do Everything Myself”
So Khadgar leveling up (5:06) made Deadwing Pass dead huh? That's one heck of a ding.
I think the fel made it dead, he just removed the fel and the dead is all that remained... but yeah, I love the level up scene!!! I was half expecting Lothar to say "grats" when he walked up to him 😂
@@sundorlawrecki3499 I think it was pre-alpha level up effect actually (Khadgar was one of the main testers). Blizzard patched it pretty quick tho, since obviously it was nasty bug. Data remained in the files tho, since it was such a bad bug, Blizzard couldn't completely remove it, so they just renamed it "Fel" and added it in the lore so that it wouldn't be too odd to see things being blown up by those rare pre-alpha testers who actually managed to get level ups... 🤔
(Yeah, not the best joke, but hey... 😅)
@@finnishfatman haha you had it in the beginning, then the joke kinda whitered... but I still laughed, so 10/10 😂
5:05 did he like level up XDXD
Nah, it was an Achievement "Duel-icious".
Yup he sure did! Which is why he didn't have any corruption!
Roman Semenov yup, which if anyone knows their lore, was an avatar of Sargaras.
DING!
/g Gratz!
So this was the scene where Sargeras have a full control of Medivh's body.. If only the majority of people knew the Warcraft's lore, they'd really appreciate this movie like I do. Fantastic movie.
Best way to catch up on lore?
@humonquly100 there's videos on UA-cam and stuff to read on the WoW Wikipedia page
this movie is not accurate to the lore. i have played warcraft 1 2 3 . story is far from good anc accurate.
never noticed... did Khadgar level up while he was draining medivh? :P
Guilherme Padilha canonically yeah
Guilherme Padilha khadgar jumper a shitload of levels 1v1ing medivh
Lol just noticed this, that was totally the ding animation
Holy Magic...pretty clear...
Yes, and got his health and his mana replenished.
In the original story, Lothar decapitated Medivh, so the decapitated golem did make sense for a cinematic version of this. Another detail Duncan Jones got right in his own way.
This movie was honestly pretty good. There were some things that weren't correct with the game's lore, and that did disappoint me, but overall I enjoyed a lot more about the movie than I disliked. This fight was easily my favorite part.
Well, it's an adaptation. Things ARE going to be different. If it's exactly like the source material, then there's no point in it being an adaptation. You want exactly the same thing as the games...then play the games.
@@domidium there's no reason for it to ever be different with the level of technology man has achieved. No fucking excuses man.
5:04
I'll never forget seeing this in the movie theaters opening weekend and having some asshole yell "DING" in the background.
LMAO
I never saw that scene before, wtf
I guess there are different versions, cut scenes etc
5:21 that was the perfect moment for Khadgar to start aging. come on, what a wasted opportunity-
3:56 I can't stop watching this part its just badass
Which idiots calls this movie terrible?
It was beyond awesome
It isn't terrible - but could've been better. The story was fine as it mostly follows the lore, but the live action sometimes didn't look very good, and blizzard has always been known for their cinematic looks. Battle for Azeroth (and all the cinematics before it) look amazing, the CGI is beautiful - but the live action aspect I feel detracts some from the majesty of the CGI.
I thought the story kinda feel to short and less action scene, with cgi like that they can maximized the action scene and bring back LOTR vibe. Its was really good live action movie that adapted from the game.
@@tink5488 I agree with this, If they had done humans with cgi as well it would have looked better as a whole.
Those 'idiots' probably see how rushed it is, how boring the characters are (save for Durotan, maybe) and how much crap the lore had to take to make it happen.
All for some pretty picture, which is more or less all this movie is about. Which isn't enough to even call it good, let alone 'awesome'.
That infernal looked terrible tho
There are two things keeping this movie from being fantastic: the first one is a bit of context about what's going on. If someone is unfamiliar with the lore, he will scratch his head to every little thing happening. The second thing, of course, is the contemporary trend of unnecessary, cringy constant sarcasm that producers think that people find funny.
Agree. Some preposition about the Burning Legion or Sargeras would have made Medivh's sudden turn to evil and his metamorphosis less confusing.
It’s missing midhv’s flashback story of how he became possessed. And how his mother sealed away that demon (forgot his name).
But I like the mystery aspect of it.
This movie needed another hour tbh. I kinda wanted to see the horde overrun storm wind.
5:47 -5:53 idk if that sort of thing is considered overdone but omg I just love it, so badass I remember that was the first snippet of WARCRAFT I saw before the trailers came out and I thought it was just SO badass seeing him jump off and onto that gryphon
This movie wants me to play Warcraft again
Let me get this straight. Medivh gets possesed by Sargearas, then Sargearas goes on to make Illidan a Demon Hunter, Then gets imprisoned by Illidan and Illidan steals sargearas’ eyes?
w o w
If anyone is wondering Medivh was possessed even before he was born by Sargeras whom his body becomes a physical manifestation for at 4:02. The poor man never had a chance.
Ah the Blasted Lands/Deadwind Pass creation. Really nicely done.
Just casually runs up the stairs and jumps off a building onto a Griffin b barefoot like a badass
gryphon is a more correct term in warcraft lore, though it is the same
The animation and effects in this movie is insane.
And thus, deadwind pass was created.
The level up with proper animation and colors, very well done Movie
5:05 Your character level increased to 60
05:06 that effect is the same one as when you level up in WoW
We want Warcraft 2 - The Movie !!
2:23 Lothar slapping Kadgar causing his tooth filling to pop out
I can't believe this actually happened in New York.
New York...? Oh, you mean Deadwind Pass.
@@gandalf8216 I haven't been there in a while, so I have no idea what they actually call New York anymore.
5:13 all the trees around Karazhan got burnt from Khadgar's fel spell much like eternity's end campaign on the games where Archimonde exploded, all trees around Nordrassil got burnt
It's the loneliness that makes us weak. My God, I can relate to this!
1:24 Lothar using a ranged pull and then a taunt.
3:04 - Medivh so relaxed. ))
When you need to shut some one up and you have magic powers.
“Anyway I started blasting”
The CGI in this is amazing
"We need to shut him up"
''Ideas?'
*casts spell* : *"SHUT UUPP"*
This theme feels like a typical boss raid in WOW, with Lothar tanking, & Kadgar as DPS, but where's the healer.
Henry Yeh they are hardcore people
They are fighting old content, didn't need one. >.>
healer afk'd to open door as soon as they entered instance.
@@ladyangelus24 curse words on the com panel x@*#
karazhan is soloable now haha
5:08 this is how Deadwind Pass was created, np kids.
Thought it was Deadwind
@@AnimeViewer181 It is, my apologies. =)
I think we all knew full and well that warcraft lore would have to be drastically restructured to adapt to cinema. For what they had to work with this movie was actually pretty good. Although I'm sure that blizzcon redshirt guy would adamantly disagree.
Ahhh my favourite form of Khadgar, the [4K] form
This was where this movie didn't cut it. The beginning of the movie was very promising as his face was telling the audience that he's been through many moments of despair, and when we reached this part, they shifted gears from serious to a slight comedic vibe.
Well said, although I thought the beginning was the weakest and most disjointed part of the movie (sans the orc stuff). There's just too much ground to cover and the beginning rushes from one point to another.
I'm a Warcraft and WoW fan. And I read some of the books. So I freaking loved this movie. But I do understand why people who didn't play any of the games and know nothing about the lore and the universe of wc at all, were confused. Personally I think, that Thralls story would have been a better entry point, because of all the character development and hints you could have put into that movie and then making this movie as a prequel and then going on either with thralls storyline, rising of the horde, or Anduin Lothars story. Still I hope they will make at least one more movie in this universe.
Im sorry, not everyone's got the time to bother playing games when they got family, work, and other things to worry about.
I rarely play Warcraft and WoW but I still know some lore. Mostly Arthus/Lich King.
Exactly the setting and the story of this movie is before everything that really makes wow, wow! I woulda rather went with thrall story so then comes thrall, ILLIDAN,even GARROSH ( woulda been way better of a warchief than the one they got in this movie), arthas, REXXAR, SYLVANUS and many more important characters than guldan
It's too vast. A Warcraft intro movie would have to be 4 hours, then this movie, then maybe 3 more movies.
Lothar forgot to equip boots
That was the strongest spell I have seen, and it looks cool
FROM LIGHT COMES DARKNESS AND FROM DARKNESS.... LIIIIIIIIGHT!!!
/jizz
Imagine if they make a timeline for warcraft in movies it would be awesome
0:51 sha la la?
NChibi7 It's "Shalaros". Now that I realize that he intended to throw that destructive spell into Lothar when they first met. :v
It's the same shiet that Voldemort makes that fucking weird noise when fighting against Dumbledore.
Shalalalala shalalala in the morning oh~ oh~ oh~
😂😂😂😂 fck im dead xdd
I believe he says "Shut up". Thus Medivh's answer: Very impressive, now try shutting HIM up.
The people in the comments discusing about the movie. Warcraft universe deserves its own show like Game of Thrones or Wandavision.
We need more parts of this story, the games are better sure but many people need to see this storyline without playing it :)
love how Lothar goes to put his hand over medivhs mouth lol
3:56 "Whatever you plan to do, kid... DO IT NOW..."
It’s sad how we’ll never get a sequel sad face.
really? source? they put cliffhanger for Thrall's story in the end so it's still possible.
It’s been 3 years
It's better if they did Lich King/Arthus
Its been 7 years...
Congratulations, you have reached level 100!
When I first saw this movie, I didn't think too much but at 5:05 the creation of Deadwind pass is actually awesome.
Warcraft still has humor like 1 and 2 :D
Still waiting on that 'warcraft cinematic universe' announcement
*Ermac has glicthed into the movie*
I was happy af for this movie I'm prayin they make a part2,3,4,5,6,7...
Underrated movie
The most problems I had with this movie came from comparing it's lore with the main timeline.
Legend has it he’s taking the the hobbits to Isengard...
The actors in this movie deserved so much better.
I guess you cast arcane missiles or arcane explosion saying sha la la
I'd say its arcane missiles, albeit a very sloppy one. But hey, still learning and all.
He said Shalaros! You would know if you knew anything aboit warcraft.
@@AbsentCrysisX where can I see these spells name?
Shalamanca?
4:57 imagine ur gf's reaction if u shouted that crap as finishing :D
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
imagine your fleshlight's reaction
People who like this usually have to imagine their girlfriends too
That's one big pool of mountain dew
medivh was possessed by sargeras...the real villain of warcraft....really big foreshadowing hehehehe
Khadgar pretty much dispelled Medivh from his debuff.
5:05 DING!
I don’t understand how medivh was possessed by a demon and killed when he’s the one that’s supposed to be the one to eventually bring the horde and alliance together to fight the burning legion. Or am I missing something?
Joshua Nash that happens much later
The evil Medivh dies which is the one we see here in this movie. After he wakes up from a 20 year coma, that was induced at the age of 14, Anduin Lothar and Khadgar kill him in Kharazan for bringing Demons back to Azeroth after they were defeated during the events of The Sundering and the Night elf campaign against the legion 1000's of years ago. (Also the Legion wants to eradicate all life in the universe) So then Aegwynn, his mother, hears of her son's death and uses the last of her power to bring Medivh back to life but this time he's not possessed by the Demon Lord and Khadgar goes around destroying dark portals. All of this is Warcraft2-ish era. In Warcraft3 he returns in his alternative form and brings Jaina Proudmoore, Thrall, Cairne and Malfurion together in a successful military campaign against the Burning Legion and defending the World Tree, which is the source of the night elves immortality. He then disappears after these events and no one has heard of his whereabouts in all of Azeroth for a long time leaving some to speculate that he may return in the future. The online RPG, World of Warcraft, starts after the Lich King returns to Northrend incase you're confused so this movie is actually showing events that occur before the games take place. But then later adventurers find that the Old Gods had influence over some of the events we see here in this movie.
I definitely have a big chunk of lore I’ve missed out on I’m more knowledgeable WC3 and after that, I use to read the book that came with WC3 that had a lot of the lore written down been a huge fan of the game and history ever since,
Medivh is already possessed before birth, see the wiki for more lore (that was damn long lore)
2:27 dat face tho
I wish some of the spells were more like wow spell effects
I keep coming back to this movie for the orcs.. They were amazing.. All of em!!
It's the Wooden Humans who let the movie down sadly.
I hate current Hollywood but remaking this like every single other movie wouldn’t be such a bad idea
I don't understand why they rushed the major plot lines. They could have easily made multiple warcraft movies out of this one, highly condensed movie alone. Character development was rushed. I mean with the extensive lore in WoW, they could shoot a series that would span 4 or 5 seasons. Easily. Then they still have the lich king & legion to expand upon. Warcraft could probably last 20 seasons with the right writers. Then you still have expansions they're currently working on which would be done & explained by the time they even got to it lol Such a missed opportunity for a quick buck. I mean it's a decent movie but damn.. warcraft lore gets pretty deep. Y'all didn't use it to it's full potential.

OOPS...wrong franchise
Rock: demon or no demon still a mortal beneath my weight.
Al Bundy: you don't say
So this is when Deadwind Pass got created,
i saw this in theaters in Denver was a great time
So... wait... did Khadgar really defeat Medivh with a TP scroll???
and thus, deadwind pass was created lol...
And that's how Deadwind Pass was born
Chest event phase 3 (secret phase)
I don't blame him for Using that powers its kinda cool 😅
I dont know but medivh looks like illidan when possessed
Thats sargeras. Illidan got his new power to the eye of sargeras. Thats why they looked a like. Srry for the splling of the name.
Didn't Illidan got his power from the skull of Gul'dan? He stole the eye of Sargeras and tried to destoy the frostthrone including the lichking with it? (Warcraft 3 RoC + TFT)
Movie had so much potential. It needed a stronger cast and better CGI. Other option would have been to do the whole movie like the cut scenes in the game.
Oscars for all of them!
after missing his wife so long
" its the lonlyness what make us weak "
Fun facts he's ragnor lodbrok
Please make a movie based on Warcraft III.
I need that Lich King movie though.
Agreed
5:49 "Can't do that while moving"
Oh, hello, Sargeras.
