sorry, this sounds pretty lame to me unless it's on an epic scale like lord of the rings...

I bet it will be as good as Dungeons & Dragons

this has been floating around for about 4 years..Blizzard is way involved, so, knowing their track record, they won't let anything get released unless it meets their guidelines..Legendary is the production house, and I like what they have done lately, so...who knows..I'll see it if/when it finally comes out.

at least Uwe Boll won't be directing it...
clicky

Whatever else negative you can say about Uwe Boll, one thing you can’t criticize him on is his strong love for video games. I mean, there may be over 200,000 signatures on an online petition asking that he stop making movies, but he clearly loves the gamer market, and at least goes into each project hoping to make good films for that fanboy community.

Right? Right?!?

“You go for it, to please the game fans, but on the other hand if you have the hard core gamers, they live in their own world. And you cannot fulfill their ideas from a video game based movie, it’s impossible,” Boll recently told MTV News. “And to be honest, the real gamers are the typical download guys, right? They don’t pay anything for movies, because they illegally download the movies. So why I should please these guys? I need the normal audience.”

That’s the Uwe Boll I know and love – the Uwe Boll who’ll criticize even his most ardent followers. God bless you, sir.

But if you’re not going to make a faithful adaptation, why make an adaptation at all? Apparently, the folks over at Blizzard wonder the same thing, since they practically laughed Boll out of their offices when he approached them about making a World of Warcraft adaptation, the director confessed.

“I got in contact with Paul Sams of Blizzard, and he said, ‘We will not sell the movie rights, not to you…especially not to you,’” Boll revealed. “Because it’s such a big online game success, maybe a bad movie would destroy that ongoing income, what the company has with it.”

A bad movie! He called his hypothetical adaptation bad. Awesome.

NICE!!!

Dont know how you could please anyone but the players for this game?

They should do it as more as a spoof like South Park did to it. Include a lot of the pop culture that came with it like Leroy Jenkins and the awesome Onyxia raid with the leader screaming.
