#warcraft movie
So I saw Warcraft in theater and because it’s getting so many bad reviews I wanted to do a little post on it.
I really liked that movie. It’s not the greatest movie of all time, far from it, but it’s fun, original and beautiful.
I’m not a gamer, I’ve never played Warcraft or WoW, so I was going unaware to see it, I wasn’t 100% convinced by the trailers and I was happily surprised.
It’s a basic plot (it’s the beginning of a war) but we haven’t seen a story like that often in movies. The characteres are witty and fun, the landscape and various places are beautiful, I LOVED the way they showed magic, it’s so cool, and again I had never seen that in a movie before. The fights are really good, the cast does a really good job.
It made me think a lot about Willow (The Ron Howard movie), not that the story is in any way similar, but in the way it tells a simple story of adventure, magic and wonder. I’m absolutely sure that kids are gonna love this movie. Again it’s so much fun. They have a griffin. A GRIFFIN, it’s so cooooool !!!
I really do not understand the backlash this movie is taking, I feel like people forget a movie can just be 2 hour of pure entertainment and joy.
It’s a perfect movie for a summer afternoon or a rainy afternoon (and it’s raining a lot in France lately, great time to watch movies) ans just … enjoy. Enjoy the nifty fights, the wonderful landscapes, the crazy CGI, the beautiful wardrobe, the amazing magic sequences, the fun dialogues, …
Designing for an orc character not because I watched Warcraft and definitely not beacause I loved their designs…….
“Shalaros!”
Imagine Lothar just. Loving all of Khadgar’s baby fat. Pinching his cheeks. Smooshing his face (Khadgar is not amused). Hugging him tight because he’s just the right level of squishy. Giving him loud, smacking kisses everywhere, and making Khadgar laugh.
I wanna wrap up in this and roll around on the floor forever oh god
During the ceremony at the end of the movie, Khadgar hands Lothar Llane’s sword. There’s a moment of hesitation on Lothar’s part until Khadgar nods at him, as if to say “you can do this and I’ll be here for you.”
Then he takes Lothar’s place by the young king and his sister, as if they’re a family.
In which Khad fantasies about that desk scene.
