Warcraft - Caravan Of Garbage

WAR. And craft. Well I've never heard of such a thing but regardless let's get into the 2016 Warcraft film adaptation directed by Duncan Jones. Acting as an origin story for the conflict between the orcs of Draenor and the humans of Azotha it both sides this epic conflict with more motion capture than the average brain can possibly comprehend.

[@SuzakuX]

I don't know if it could have drawn enough at the box office to warrant a sequel regardless of how good it was, so doing it in two parts would have been risky. It does suffer from being essentially two movies in one, though, and to me it always felt like the human half of the story was sort of half-baked and phoned-in. Kind of a feat that the orcs feel like the more real characters -- pretty stacked cast of mocap actors, too. The human half is also where the story more significantly deviates from the source material.

[@masonclark531]

Did they say it was badly made? Don't really remember that. Maybe you're just going off the title of the video series. They specifically called it out as not really fitting that label.

So many video game movies up to this point had such clear CONTEMPT for their source material -- Doom, Super Mario Bros., and so on. In recent years with Sonic and SMB Hollywood has FINALLY learned how to not be embarassed of the property it's adapting. But at the time this came out, WoW fans just wanted their favorite game to not be pissed all over on the big screen. I remember being in the theatre when the Murloc made its iconic gurgle, and i was like "Ok. This movie might actually like its audience! This might be cool!" and i still think I was right. it's a real shame they didn't let Duncan do another. It would have made a fine trilogy, or more. Lord knows there's enough source material to make as many movies as they felt like making (which sadly turned out to be ... one.)

@@bluecanine3374 They want to have their cake and eat it too with the Orcs.

But then they did an entire expansion where the premise was garrosh traveling back in time to stop them from drinking the blood of mannaroth and becoming rage-fueled slaves to demons. but they STILL try to ruthlessly conquer azeroth even without being controlled by the burning legion. so they were ALWAYS bad. their treatment in prison camps was 100% justified, the humans would have been within their rights to just wipe them all out but they chose not to

Fun fact: to power the opening of the Dark Portal, Gul'dan, the first orc warlock, and the one responsible for creating the Horde in the first place (albeit through his puppet Blackhand), had to suck out the souls of hundreds if not thousands of draenei, using them as fuel for his magic. The draenei (who look like blue humanoids, with males having face tentacles) are not native to Draenor, but instead to a world called Argus, which was dominated and broken by the Dark Titan Sargeras (who incidentally is the one possessing Medivh by the way) as he expanded the Burning Legion. The draenei (Exiled Ones in their language), led by the Prophet Velen, were able to escape Argus with help from angelic beings called Naaru, while most of their people, the Eredar, were transformed into demons by Sargeras. The draenei fled from world to world until reaching Draenor, where their dimensional vessel crashed. The world, by the way, is named after them. Gul'dan came into contact with the Eredar demonlord Kil'Jaeden the Deceiver, who is the real one responsible for the creation of the Horde. Kil'Jaeden was once Velen's dear friend, and has been hunting the draenei for millennia. This is why the Horde was especially cruel towards the draenei, even paving a huge road from their bones, which they called the Path of Glory. Anyway, the fact is that this backstory is why the initial drafts of the Warcraft movie was called "Blue Harvest".

In one of those Q&As I'm standing in line to ask my question (this was ages ago, I forget what I was asking about) but as my turn comes up, Todd Pawlowski who was the Customer Service VP decides to "guess my question" and proceeds to hijack my turn to "ask" about the Warcraft movie and then the executives took several minutes to talk to us about how the film was progressing. I didn't give a damn about the movie then, and I'm pretty sure none of the other hard working CS folks there cared much either. We were more concerned about silly things like pay & compensation, growth opportunities, problems with the game that caused us a lot of stress, etc. I did eventually get to ask my question which was mostly brushed off, but for several weeks, everyone who was in that Q&A when walking by me would ask if I wanted to know about the Warcraft movie.

@user-oc6on9nv1x I can only assume this comes from some supplemental material? From the sprites in WC1&2 and the models in WC3 and WoW, they were never even close to that big, at least when it comes to regular grunts and peons. Combine that with how small actual humans are compared to your average WC human, and it's a crazy contrast. Personally I think they work better at a smaller scale.

[@button9]

If you watch all their cinematics, they're about 7-8ft tall consistently. I think in game they kept them a bit smaller - but watch all the cinematics from Legion, Draenor and BfA and they're all pretty big/tall hunched over. They seemed to make them less hunched in the movie so they seem taller sometimes.

I really enjoyed the Assassin parts of Assassin’s Creed. Everything else was not good, at all. Looking forward to James and Maso (probably) ripping it apart

[@Daniel.Baxter]

As someone who's never played WoW or the original Warcraft (though i do like Diablo 3), i can say that my wife and i really enjoyed this movie and still do. It's a nice, high-fantasy film that actually has a budget and good effects, and doesnt take itself too seriously.

I'm sorry, are we just going to let this small mention of Warhammer just slip by or.......

[@jon471000]

I played Warcraft 2 and 3. And for someone that loved the lore and old games damn did I want these films to work

[@gregc8831]

I'd like to point out thousands of hours of warcraft didnt destroy my life it merely delayed it about 15 years

[@jesterbomb6763]

One of the very few KZbinrs that make me laugh out loud. The editing in this one was so funny ffs

[@BennyCo.Skateboard]

I saw this movie in the theater, no idea why. Never played any of the games, I had no idea what was going on.

[@zmandaragis]

Orcs were neat on this film

[@Tyler-Thompson]

Mason learned how to be a regular man from his dad, Bob Iger (a very regular man)

[@SmehmahhKamma]

Maso looks like a guy who lives in lighthouse repair shop with a two monitor set up. You can decide for yourself if that means he’s normal

[@firestar070]

Mason asking commenters on KZbin to tell him if he’s not normal is a bold choice

[@ShatteredAutomaton]

I was always a healer in World of Warcraft. Always nice to give people that Res-erection.

[@Keque]

Weird how people who arent fans just hated it. Its very highly regarded by the playerbase. Whatever though

[@ChristianKarhan]

Orc Twitter is gonna end you for this video

[@jed_the_artist]

I don't think mason is regular man or non-regular man. but even something in-between that.

[@TheEmptyBiscuit]

Love how Doctor Who is just quietly creeping into the language of these edits, peak taste

[@AT1972ASDF]

They should make a film based on the Blizzard cinematics. They're always so good

[@stoffelthedestroyer3741]

We get so FEW good fantasy movies, since Lord of The Rings nothing decent ever came out. People begged for a Warcraft movie for decades! The Blizzard CGI is world renown. Yet everyone became professional Roger Ebert critics at bashing this movie as if it was The Room or Assassin's Creed. As if it was a Steven Seagal movie. Any hope for a sequel, TV series or franchise was drowned in your toxic vitriol. Since then we haven't had anything Warcraft, thanks a lot. You give a chance to various hollywood slop, you eat up yet another Marvel garbage but here you don't give a chance? Then you cry why we can't have nice things. You all are at fault.

It's interesting to hear a breakdown by people that haven't played WoW. I played WoW for years, but didn't see the movie until recently, and I really enjoyed it. But I always thought that the lore dump and sheer number of characters with goofy names would be off-putting or confusing as all hell for non-players. But I guess I was wrong...I never considered that, I only paid so much attention to the lore because I knew it, and that ultimately, it didn't matter much in the scope of the film.

[@SwagBroPlays]

Having Paula Patton as a tiny half orc instead of a buff orc warrior woman was cowardice of the highest order

[@damien2729]

TLDR: It's a poorly made movie with good CGI, if you played any of the original warcraft games, read the books, played the highly successful MMORPG game World of Warcraft, you love this movie, if you didn't, the movie really speeds through a lot of things, and if you don't know the Lore or basic characters, you're left going ok....and...who is that....why should we care etc etc. It's a type of story meant for television, spread out, Game of Thrones style, you can't possibly make a movie and cram enough in it to make it watchable, the story is so lore rich it needs tens of hours to unpack everything.

[@rayymond73]

The editing on this video is top tier

[@asherglory]

The Warcraft movie is a guilty pleasure for me because as a fan I enjoy the Warcraft stuff, the orcs look great, and I like how they stylized the human armor. But also as a fan I realized, “They can’t make a sequel,” because the humans straight up lost the first war and the second war is a follow-up to Stormwind being burnt to the ground.

[@manoelheitor9514]

For the last few weeks, I see the movie they're watching and think "Imma skip this one, not really interested in this movie", but than I come back and I have a great time hearing you guys.

[@cole8834]

A big problem was that instead of it being the plot of "Warcraft" they wanted it to be a "World of Warcraft" movie with the plot of "Warcraft." Spending half the movie with Orcs was a waste of time, and would be more important for "Warcraft 2." More time was needed for Medivh which they spent on the Orcs. While there will never be sequels now (lol), Medivh comes back for "Warcraft 3" so spending more time with him would've been intelligent. They really wanted to shoehorn orcs all over the movie as part of the "Horde vs Alliance" marketing which they thought would appeal to players of the MMO, instead of establishing humans, azeroth, you know, the world that's supposed to matter. The Warcraft RTS games and novels actually have a very coherent and interesting story that they could've easily stuck to but didn't because marketing + the MMO lol. Also people in green makeup would've looked fine for orcs. no one would care. That, or the whole film should've been cgi like the Warcraft cutscenes.
