Snippets of Warcraft
The first TV commercial for the upcoming Warcraft movie has arrived, and it’s packed full of neat new footage and all the stuff I love so far.
Still looks darn sweet! This is gonna be a hella cool movie. The CGI looks great! The Warcraft world looks great! You can see elves, Dalaran, orcs, Thrall; man, this is gonna be good! But here’s hoping I don’t reignite my World of Warcraft addiction after seeing this film.

The Warcraft Trailer With Original Game Sound Effects
The geniuses of the Internet have done it again! Here is the Warcraft movie trailer with sound effects from Warcraft II. It’s sublime.
This genius comes from Youtuber Robert Mermet. My hat is off to you, friend. This was masterful! Zug zug, indeed!

The Warcraft Trailer Again in Super High Definition!
I was in England when the Warcraft movie trailer hit the Internet, so I wasn’t able to share my thoughts — good thing I randomly stumbled upon this super high definition version yesterday! You’ve got to use the little gear button in the bottom right corner, but you can set this trailer to play at 1440p! Apparently that’s a thing now, and it’s beautiful!
The trailer looks amazing! The detail, the imagery, the iconic characters, beasts and locations, baby Thrall! I think Warcraft has become my most anticipated movie of 2016. We all know that Captain America: Civil War is going to be awesome. Warcraft is more of a gamble, and I like that. A gamble that looks like it’s going to pay off!

The Orcs are Coming! (Update!)
Update: Check out this sweet new poster that was just released today! So good!
The first trailer for the Warcraft movie is right around the corner. It’s going to debut at Blizzcon this weekend, and hopefully it’ll arrive on the Internet soon after. Granted, I’ll be in London, so I might miss it! But Empire magazine was kind enough to tease some screenshots from the movie.
Behold, Durotan, father of Thrall and Warchief of the Frost Wolves Clan!

Good times, that Durotan. Personally, I would have made the first movie about Thrall, but the filmmakers decided to go all the way back to the first Warcraft game and start the lore from the beginning. Mad respect for something like that. Let’s hope they can pull it off!
The Warcraft movie will be out next year. And be sure to watch the trailer as soon as you can!

Announcing World of Warcraft: Legion!
The new expansion is World of Warcraft: Legion! When the Tomb of Sargeras is opened, the Burning Legion invades Azeroth with armies of demons! No new races, like I’d hoped, but there’s a new Demon Hunter hero class! And a bigger focus on classes, including iconic weaponry.
Check out this pretty cool announcement trailer!
Looks pretty neat. Everybody loves fighting demons!
You can read a ton of info at the World of Warcraft website. They’ve got a whole shebang to show off about the new classes, weapons and fancy pants stuff!
I’m not quite sure if this is going to be enough to get me back into the game. I put out a whole list this week of what I wanted to see in the next expansion, and I don’t think I really get anything that I want! But hey, any new adventure is cause for fun, right? This Demon Hunter hero class could be cool, and it’ll give me something to do with the Night Elves, finally.
Overall, I’m still not sure. I think I’ll let this announcement sink in and see where I am in a few weeks. I’ll still need to buy and play through Warlords of Draenor, and this game won’t be coming out for at least a year, probably. So I’ve got time to think, save money and possibly even finally cure myself of this maddening addiction!
But a Night Elf Demon Hunter is starting to sound pretty cool…
