This is genuinely, very cool!

I always wondered if Stormwind was intended to have a bigger part to play at soke point in production - there was clearly so much work and love put into the sets!

I’ve spent some time hanging about Stormwind I can tell you.

Did you find Mr Bilbo's funny old ring?

Your storage locker is like narnia for nerds. Does that make you Mr Tumnus?

I like how the map itself subliminally told you to to put it in storage and not throw it away.

Very cool. I still think Warcraft was underrated.

manmademoon.bsky.social•101 days ago

Me too! 😂❤️

My wife and I saw it together. We both loved it. Very cool maps.

I was a WoW gamer many moons ago and I did enjoy the film.

My kid loves Warcraft.

So very cool.

Good prompt for a rewatch, I'm about due another.

You have any Labyrinth props?

Loving how on the Eastern Kingdoms map there’s no way Stormwind harbour can be in the south, but on the Stormwind city map it’s in the south.

Seeing that map is making me feel a bit nostagic for the old vanilla gaming experience of WoW, especially some of the epic battleground fights that lasted multiple hours before the expansions ruined them...

The Gate section has Jay Leno’s chin!
Frame them.

The handwritten notes are greatly appreciated. How else would we know the swamp of sorrow is a swamp?

Did you ever consider using maps in the movie to show where the characters traveled?

mordim.bsky.social•101 days ago

These are awesome!

spiderkav.bsky.social•101 days ago

Those are so cool

My favourite prop item was the sketch of the Troll in Khadgar's book. But that was bid waaaay outta reach in the auctions, sadness! (They are my favourite character race from the game, The orcs after that.)
Was there ever a plan to have them in the movie?

manmademoon.bsky.social•101 days ago

Yup. There was a whole Troll assault on Stormwind sequence that would have played as a flashback, and showed Medivh's first public use of his powers. Not unexpectedly cut early on due to budget. 😂

maybecabers.bsky.social•101 days ago

Ahaaa, fair enough! (but darn I would have loved to see it. :)) the CG work on the Orcs was so good. I don't suppose any models/tests were done for the Trolls, then, given the "early on" cutting, but I had hoped! 😁

go back to 2006 and 13-year old me could rustle you up a dozen of these in five minutes
