Am I the only one that was disappointed by the director? This is the guy who did Evil Dead, which pushed limits and was freaking hellarious, and then spent much of the rest of his career playing it safe. "I'm like a dinosaur. I couldn't change with the material." he says, after bombing a western.
Maybe, just maybe, if the Warcraft movie was his full focus, and the right risks were taken the movie would be great. But, this announcement suggest that the Warcraft movie will take a 2nd priority, and play things safe.
I guess it will be a long time before someone breaks the trend of making complete garbage videogame movies.
