World of Warcraft Movie

I just found out they are making a World of Warcraft movie!!1 :oooooooooooooooooooo

Some more information:
The film was originally set in the era of Warcraft: Orcs and Humans. This was scrapped, however, as there were notions that it would be too similar to Lord of the Rings and that Warcraft had reached its current level of popularity through its MMORPG, rather than the previous RTS games.[1]
As such, the movie is set one year before World of Warcraft and will primarily told from the Alliance's point of view, though Metzen says his heart lies with the Horde. Characters such as Cairne Bloodhoof, Thrall, Sylvanas Windrunner, and Bolvar Fordragon are likely to make appearances. Arthas is unlikely to appear.[1] At BlizzCon 2007, Chris Metzen said that the main character is set to be a new hero described as a "kick-ass Human" and an "Anti-Thrall".[2][3] This new character in the movie is not same one as in the comic (now known to be Varian Wrynn).[4]

Metzen also stated clearly that lore would be bent for the sake of the film, Varian Wrynn might have a twin.[3]
Interestingly enough, the film is described as the "first film", raising obvious possibilities as to future installments.[3]
Concept art of Teldrassil was released in relation to the film, hinting that at least some of the film takes place there, and perhaps by extension, in Darnassus.'

    I've rid myself of that e-heroin many days ago. Phew! The clinic moved me to e-methadone aka Counter Strike Source. I still can't let go. :'[

  19. I don't have a lot of faith in a live action WoW movie. I would much rather see a CGI film made, especially considering that the CGI cinematics are more epic than most movies I've ever seen. Anyway, nice blog, followed
