That article is nearly 2 years old. It talks about how Warner Bros. put up money for the "upcoming film" Superman Returns.

Yeah, this was announced awhile ago. Not much news since then.

It's going to be a live action film supposedly, but I was hoping for a complete cgi film with the style they used in the wow and burning crusade trailers.

Considering the Halo movie couldn't even get off the ground, I doubt this is going to happen.

I've thought for years that Blizzard should make a CGI animated film, Warcraft or Starcraft... I'd actually prefer something based in the Starcraft universe, but since Warcraft is their bread and butter, I'm sure that if they really did someday make a movie, it would be that.

I couldn't find a previous thread for this...
Sam Raimi to direct.

^ Same here, I've always loved the designs/themes for World of Warcraft, but never got into it. I have hopes for this one though, especially with Raimi behind it.

They should charge by the hour and use cgi to continually re-arrange the story elements in a slightly different way..the RPG people would never leave the theatre!

"Yeah, but these are slightly bigger wolves, and in a different shade of brown!"

Blizzard could take a couple of months worth of profits from the game and just bang out a $200 million dollar epic.

I can't wait for the scene where the protagonists attempt to trade for something and get inundated with messages about Anal [Fishing]...

Well the ultimate fight is against a greater evil, that both the alliance and horde have combined to fight against (The Prince Arthas, Lord Illidan, The Scourge)

Sam Raimi? I look forward to the scene where the Lich King gets an Emo haircut and "struts" down the street.

Oh yeah this was one of the better porno parody movies based off of a game. The zelda porno was better.

Hey, the Horde has elves, too! I know, I'm a nerd :lol:
This could end up sucking, or be pretty good. I wonder where they will start from. There's so much story to be told.

He already has a girly man haircut, so it might be an improvement.
