Not to hijack - but I just bought Starcraft II and have been playing the shit out of it. Can't wait for the 3rd one to drop in a few days.

Will the main Orc be Thrall?
And why are some orcs pink and others green? |

I think this movie can safely count on at least 10 million people seeing. It'll probably be way more than that. 10 million people is like, what, $150,000,000 box office?

Some orcs are brown, others are green. Different Orc tribes. There's a reason some tribes are green and some are brown, however i'm not nerd enough to know the lore behind that.

It looks better than I could of imagined. Reminds me of Avatar, they probably make a billion easily.

This looks like it belongs on Syfy. HARD PASS.
And this is coming from someone who plays WoW every day still. |

I love the lore of Warcraft, I revisit the game every now and then for a month then I stop after I've gotten my nostalgia fill. There are so many story lines and if this movie does well, then there are soooooooooooooo many movies that can be lined up just off lore alone. I'm not a fan of the size of the orcs, its like the Michael Bay Ninja Turtles where its just too much, bigger than humans? Sure. That big? No, it makes it seem like the humans have no chance against orcs that can easily take hits and rip them apart. If you want to watch some YouTubers who're lore experts, there are lots out there, but the most detailed is Nobbel87. His accent isn't for everyone, but his thoroughness and love for the lore is really good. Last edited by Gravedigger; 11-09-2015 at 01:10 AM.. |

That's good information. Thank you. I watched like 3 hours of Game of Thrones lore on YouTube a few weeks back so I'll check this out. How come Thrall is green, though? |

I read a Warcraft trilogy back when I was in high school. One of the books focused on Thrall. I remember his master mistreating him, the girl helping him escape (and subsequently being killed by the master), and I remember Grom Hellscream and Orgrim Doomhammer because they're awesome ****ing names.

I want to say Thrall found a clan and became a shaman or some shit. He was a beast in battle, he could read, he was compassionate, and he practiced magic.
He was basically the perfect Orc. |

Orcs become green when exposed to fel magic. It's genetic so it is passed down to their offspring.
