Trivia
It took 123 days to complete filming. See more »Goofs
The city of Dalaran is depicted as a floating city. Dalaran was not lifted up from the ground until after the attacks by the scourge and its destruction which occurred in Warcraft 3. The city should have been on land in the "Alterac mountains". See more »Quotes

Is The Video Game Curse Broken?
First off, i would like
to point out Duncan Jones has made another fantastic flick. Better than
source code, but me personally i loved moon so.... Warcraft isn't good
enough to beat it lol. So Everything about this movie felt right. And i
would like to point out this movie is about the warcraft storyline
(First game) Not World Of Warcraft. The acting was good, the pacing was
great. The CGI was amazing! Gul'dan was an awesome villain. Never heard
of Daniel Wu But i feel like he will be voice acting more characters
soon. I love how they wear that ridiculous armor that a normal person
can't stand up in. Lothar was an amazing main character, and I only know
Travis Fimmel because he's in the show vikings but i feel like if the
rest of the critics like this movie this could be his breakthrough
movie. If there is a sequel then i would definitely go and see it. And
lads, The Video game curse is broken! Hopefully Assassins Creed will
live up to the hype! Fans will love it, people who like lord of the
rings or the hobbit will love it, just regular people who has never
played WoW will love it! All in all, i think that the hype was well
worth it and it is definitely going to be a recommend for me! After you
have seen Captain America go see Warcraft, you wont regret it.
