You know I really think it could work better for them if they did what Pacific rim did and have mostly no names as the main cast instead of A listers. They then could use the money on the sets etc. *shrug* I dunno sometimes okay a lot of times no names do better jobs then the big wigs. That's just what I think.

Well cow, they're not catering to 'mainstream' like Pacific Rim did. They're catering to us WoW fans. So that's something to keep in mind.

Rofl. Johnny Depp as Medivh would be hilarious.

I know that's why I said it >.> I was just saying that because big names are not as good as no names a lot of the time more so for things like this that are not for "mainstream"

I'd rather big names than nameless npcs. Like if they ever do a sequel to include Warcraft 3, Chen Stormstout and Rexxar and Rokhan? YESPLZ

OHHHH! Woopsie. Total misinterpretation on my part then. XD Yeah, I'd be okay with actors not being the big name people too long as they do a good job.

Done. If they put Tom Hiddleston as Medivh I'd cry with happiness. Johnny Depp wouldn't be bad but we all know Tom has experience as a magic wielding crazy man... Whom I LOVE. >.>

As great as Tom is, he's a bit too young for Medivh.

in other words, this won't be a "WoW" movie. it will be a Warcraft movie.

and please, NO Johnny Depp.. am SOOOOO sick of him in every other movie. him and Samuel L. Jackson. If neither of them ever made another movie, I'd be happy.

A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

The trick for me isn't who the actors are, it's 'can they make me see the character, rather then the actor.' though...I'm not a fan of Tom, he is a good Loki, but he's...greasy looking...to me.

Hmm, this is interesting. I'm glad they are going back to Warcraft for it, there is some great lore from that era. However, it depends on what they include.

While I agree with Makoes that it is more important to see the character and not just the name behind them, I can't help but wonder who will play Uther.
