World of Warcraft movie has a director



Duncan Jones is making the jump to big-budget tentpole movies, signing on to direct Warcraft, Legendary Pictures’ live-action adaptation of Blizzard Entertainment’s video game universe. Jones made his feature debut writing and directing 2009's Moon, the well-regarded low-key indie sci-fi drama that starred Sam Rockwell and cost around $1 million to make. He followed that up with Source Code, Summit’s 2011 time travel thriller that starred Jake Gyllenhaal and cost around $35 million to make. Warcraft is expected to have a budget north of $100 million.

Legendary is keeping its script, written by Charles Leavitt, under wraps. The Warner Bros.-based production and finance outfit is eyeing a fall 2013 start and a 2015 release.

Not sure if want.. Honestly, not sure if I want a movie at all, but this is a strange choice for director. Could be amazing. Oblig, I played MoP, hit 90, got bored of dailies and quit.

But does it have an audience? That can physically leave the house and go the theater?

And fit in the seat?
superdogbiter 31st-Jan-2013 03:39 am (UTC)
or fit in a car?
ritzyroxie 31st-Jan-2013 03:40 am (UTC)
That insinuates that they own a car, tho
angelmonster 31st-Jan-2013 03:42 am (UTC)

Don't you like fat boys though?
dravvie 31st-Jan-2013 04:10 am (UTC)
If you would like to assume that most of the people who play WoW are fat fanboys that never leave the house, by that logic you should assume that most of the people on ONTD are unwashed fangirls who spend all day reading fanfiction, getting drunk, doing drugs, or having anxiety so bad they can't do anything.

Both assumptions would be wrong.

As a fat shut-in that still plays WoW sometimes this comment and replies are kind of bumming me out.
kytele 31st-Jan-2013 08:22 am (UTC)
lmfao

You're obviously stupid and ignorant. Sorry your life sucks, tbh. A lot of the people who play that game probably have more friends than you irl -- as I can't see anyone wanting to be friends with an ass like you.

/just assuming all of this like you did

That stereotype is so old and played out.. what are you, 50? Go back to your coupons, mom.
vickyblueeyez 31st-Jan-2013 03:38 am (UTC)
I haven't played WoW since 2009 and have no plans on going back. I actually enjoy Aion. Even with that said, I'd probably see a WoW movie since I always tldr'd the WoW lore and what not.
kytele 31st-Jan-2013 08:24 am (UTC)
ah damn, i really tried getting into aion, and i got my sorc up to 38 before just getting tired of the grind. it's a gorgeous, beautiful game but yeesh, was it grindy.

WoW sucked me in for like 3 months a few years ago, I was legit addicted. I haven't played it in forever though cuz it was pissing my husband off.

I love him but I don't understand World of Warcraft.

I am such a bad nerd.
angelmonster 31st-Jan-2013 03:42 am (UTC)
Source code was so bad, this will be worse.

ah nevermind
ladyofmachinery 31st-Jan-2013 06:16 pm (UTC)
I love Source Code so much. Judging by a couple of comments like yours here I thought Rotten Tomatoes has lost it by giving it 95+% (if I remember correctly) but I loved every damn second of it. Especially since I studied some of the things/theories they brought up (physics student here). I thought it was thoroughly entertaining. And I generally bitch about scientific inaccuracies all the time (like Looper....fun...I guess....but so dumb and irritating at the same time)

ladyofmachinery 31st-Jan-2013 06:17 pm (UTC)

justpeachythnks 1st-Feb-2013 12:15 am (UTC)

Blizzard games are hardly a bastion of feminism, but there are some great female characters, imo. Jaina Proudmoore foreverrrrrrr.

christoph 31st-Jan-2013 03:53 am (UTC)
