World of Warcraft Trailer Online

Before you get all your 3 day old lucky raiding boxers and cheetos in a bind, this is the cinematica trailer for the World of Warcraft Game Expansion due out later this year. Wrath of the Lich King.

I love how the narrative is of the noble king and father of Arthus who is passing his wisdom on to his son. In the game storyline, that son is decieved by demons to take up Frostmourne, a sword that taints his Paladin upbringing and makes him into a servant of an evil undead sorceror. Eventually he becomes the Undead King of the Frozen Throne. I’d love to see that story told in film.

Even back in the good old days of Real Time Strategy games like the original Warcraft and Starcraft, the animated sequences between levels were something to raise an eyebrow to. I always wondered why they would restrict themselves to just games when they can produce segments as amazing as this.

The planned World of Warcraft movie has been hopping about limbo like a lost puppy for a while now. First confirmed by Legendary Pictures in spring of 2006, we heard that it would not be attached to the current game lore. Then later it was said to be a prequel to the events in the game.

I think it should have some sort of tie to the game canon. If ever there was a video game movie that had potential NOT to suck, World of Warcraft could be it. However, I think instead of the planned live action epic, they should really do it animated.

I’d sit through 90 minutes of THAT!
