Blizz. destroyed Warcraft movie for me (ok, so they did't)
The soundtrack of WoW is also a large part of my enjoyment of the game.
I never played the original trilogy of Warcraft games, so I don't know much about their soundtracks.
However, I just listened to a track from the new Warcraft movie, and saw who wrote it.
It absolutely cut all my excitement for seeing this film.
I hate that they contracted this hack composer to do the score to the film. He totally destroyed Pacific Rim for me, along with Clash of the Titans. Two films I SHOULD have totally loved.
I am a very sad Blood Elf right now.

I assumed chatter about the Warcraft movie would be on topic.

Unfortunately, due to training, I hear absolutely every misstep in music, every awkward moment, all sorts of details that more casual listeners might not get.
In the case of Pacific Rim, it was enough to draw me out of the film.
Like I said, I hear things differently from the average listener, simply because it's what I do for a living.
The game's soundtrack is so beautifully put together that I think it's an awful shame they couldn't have used the same composers for the film.

Absolutely LOVED the movie. I thought it was fantastic, and am now dying to see that extra 40 minutes that was cut from the film. I hope they release a director's cut.
The music was not as bad as I was afraid it might be, it only dragged me out of the film a few times. This guy seems to have exactly ONE thing for action sequences, and it's incredibly annoying and clichéd.

Re: Blizz. destroyed the Warcraft movie for me
In the game it would be unrealistic to have to walk for a day to get from one town to the next.
In a movie it would be unrealistic to have two towns sit 30 seconds from each other.

I even noticed the shop that has the guild vendors in Stormwind, at one point.
I was really blown away by how the film-makers brought the geography of the game to life. It was beautiful.
