They were all blood elves, right? Do you recall seeing any night elves?

I kept wanting to see a Tauren or a goblin. I'm surprised they didn't include a Pandaren for the Chinese audiences.

not familiar with the races, but looking up some pics, i can say:

-the elves looked more like night elves (purple with glowing bluish/purplish eyes)
-no tauren as far as i can tell; would have definitely noticed if a big ass bull-man was in that mix
-pretty sure no goblins
-no pandaren but one of the elves at the end was definitely asian-looking and most likely a chinese actor.

They were high elves, the night elves aren't in the story yet.

Someone must have killed off the rest of the murlocs while farming.

Another fantastic review, this time by Filthy's nephew:

I saw it last night, and I liked it. Was very cool to see all those locations made real. 2 questions though:

1) What is Garona a 1/2 breed of? It sounded like she was half orc/human, but I didn't think there were any humans on the other world at this point in the story yet?

2) What was that gift that the guardian gave Garona? Looked like a flower ... I was expecting something to come from that, but was it just a flower? Seems a bit lame

I watched it today and didn't hate it. Certainly not as horrible as I was led to believe. Very flawed but I have seen much much worse. Hearing Dominic Cooper speak with his normal voice is weird. He sounds like he has the voice of a 14 year old.

I liked it alright. It was a little confusing at parts even with having some idea of the back story.
The lore is pre-WoW so i dont know it as well. I'd love to see a movie of the Arthas story line. the book of his story was decent
