World of Warcraft Movie in Development
The game you pay $15 a month to play can now be the movie you pay $10 a day to memorize, as Blizzard Entertainment and Legendary Pictures team-up to bring World of Warcraft to the big screen:
The companies are teaming to produce a live-action film based on Blizzard's award-winning "Warcraft" video games, with Legendary acquiring movie rights to the "Warcraft" universe. The movie would not follow one of the games but rather be set in the epic fantasy universe, which includes orcs, trolls, elves and the undead.
This is probably a good thing for the six million people that play World of Warcraft, who now might finally have the motivation to leave their homes. The promise of human contact has obviously not been enough of an incentive. I expect the film to be pretty exciting for the first hour, then boring for the next 22 hours as you "level up."
