It’s been six years since the first film was released. Is it time for Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Toby Kebbell, and Duncan Jones to shake off the dust and begin work on a Warcraft 2 movie? We certainly hope so.
11 Celebrity Gamers: Henry Cavill, Robin Williams, Vin Diesel & More
It seems like almost every gamer has a story that involves World of Warcraft in some way or another. Even if you’ve never set foot in Azeroth, cultural osmosis decrees that you’ve at least been exposed to the imagery of orcs clashing against knights in giant, flashy armour. Perhaps due to its massive popularity with gamers, and since the fantasy epic genre has proved successful in cinemas countless times before, Legendary Pictures thought that bringing Warcraft to movie theatres in 2016 would be a great idea. As it turns out, it wasn’t.
Like many other films based on video games, Warcraft ended up being a bland, humourless movie that never did much other than provide some scenes of senseless fan service. If you were to watch the movie without knowing anything at all about the series, you’d have a terrible time trying to make heads or tails of what the motivations for the many races in Azeroth are.
However, against all odds, rumours have been circulating about the possibility of a Warcraft 2 movie (possibly bringing back Travis Fimmel). Since the original film was announced all the way back in 2006, and it wasn’t released until a decade later, it might still be some time before we see any sort of Warcraft 2 movie being made. However, before we get to that point, there are some issues with the first film that need to be resolved if there’s any hope for Warcraft to become a movie franchise.
Some sequels can come back from disappointing first movies; one of the best examples of this is 2013’s The Wolverine, which fixed almost every terrible decision made in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. However, in the case of a hypothetical Warcraft 2 movie, perhaps starting the franchise all over might be the best route that the studio could take.
There’s so little material to build upon from the first Warcraft film that fans wouldn’t be all that bothered by a Warcraft 2 movie that completely ignores the events of the 2016 flick.
The best part about Warcraft is that the producers have a vast fantasy world to draw inspiration from. If the latest rumours are to be believed, Legendary seems to be aiming towards a soft reboot with the Warcraft 2 movie. Perhaps we’ll see more of Azeroth and its many civilizations in the potential sequel, or maybe we’ll get to see older versions of the characters from the first film.

The good news — pun intended — about Not Another Church Movie is that it’s nowhere near as bad as the Jason Friedberg/Aaron Seltzer atrocities that didn’t just kill the parody subgenre but scorched the earth beneath it for a while. Unlike sheer lazy garbage like Meet the Spartans, Johnny Mack’s Tyler Perry spoof has actual jokes, and not just recreated scenes from other movies. The bad news is it’s still not very well made — Mack’s genuinely funny script is let down by his own pedestrian direction. A former writer for reality TV and awards shows, Mack’s making his feature debut here (actor James Michael Cummings gets a co-director credit at the end), and unless the meta-joke is that it’s deliberately clumsily directed to reflect Tyler Perry’s early films, it feels very much like a first movie full of growing pains.

Up until very recently, it has felt like the X-Men were lying dormant. Right up there alongside Spider-Man for a while during the early 2000s, Marvel's resident mutants have been overlooked for a while due to them not being included in the MCU. That all changes this summer via Deadpool & Wolverine, and thanks to the combination of that movie and X-Men '97, the X-Men are back, and yet another Wolverine Funko Pop! to celebrate that is being released today.
