Because making cinematic and making full length features are radically different processes and Blizzard can't afford to fun a feature without putting the company health in jeopardy
Tbh I didn't consider the fact that the people who are doing the movie paid for the right to make a big advertisement that was doomed to fail.
I still doubt blizzard-activision is in a position where they couldn't at least make a direct to DVDs style movie but obviously I don't know their financials personally
Oh they could talk to Netflix about it
Because money!!!
The same reason other adaptations get made: already existing consumer base and a lack of creativity
I'm glad my beloved Bioshock franchise didn't get tainted by the filth that is game to movie adaptations
The best thing that came out of Bloodrayne was Blubberella which was shot at the same time with most of the cast from Bloodrayne 3.
IIRC the bloodrayne movie had the female terminator from T3
she's nice to look at
and for the record let me just say that I enjoyed the first Resident Evil movie because it had so little to do with the game. I feel like once video game movies go the fan service route they go to shit.
I wouldn't mind seeing a movie set in the same universe as dark souls but you better fucking not name drop solaire

Probably due to them not giving a rat's ass about the source material, like Uwe Boll movies.
Also Uwe Boll is the worst director ever!!!
The 1st one did but the sequels changed the actress!

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
You shut your pasty white ghost mouth

I really don't understand people who say that working takes more of your time than college. Work you are done with when you leave the building (for the most part), college takes up as much time as it can with zero cap and varies depending of the time of the semester and professor

Teaching has you working at least 2-3 hours at home every day including weekends, also often with unpaid overtime at the "office"
Work takes more time than college imo. I have no time when I get home from work.
Yeah teaching would definitely be an exception (aside from summer)
What do you do? Rn I have 6 hours (or more with less sleep) to do whatever when I get home
that sounds nice. on average I get maybe two hours of free time a night on non-school days

They are publicly traded. Their net income in 2015 was ‎$892 million, this movie cost about $200 million alone including marketing.
here's a direct review quote:
Yeah that's why I didn't work and go to school at the same time. Obviously you don't have a choice though (if you want to do school and continue to have your career)
At least you'll just end up with one of the two
the worst part of the warcraft movie is that it is directed by Duncan Jones who also directed Moon. which is one of my favorite movies
after warcraft I suspect he won't be getting much work :/
I like making the money that I make at my job so I won't quit. But it is quite a hustle to do both things.
I'm infinitely grateful that I didn't have kids during this time though. There are some people I have class that do the full time work and school thing and have kids. I feel so bad for them.

Doing videogame adaptations is usually a way to say goodbye to your career lol
why would the son of David Bowie do such a thing.... smh

I don't think it's necessarily that. There's actually quite a few reasons as to why so many video game movies just don't work. And it usually either involves taking away the playable dynamic when transferring the game medium to a non-interactive one, or...well...the fact that many of the stories the games have are highly derivative works that have been mined from more popular series. You'd be surprised at how many games have ripped off elements of the Alien franchise if you took a closer look.

Do they do inline skating?
is he hot?
Lol its not the end of the world. He will probably work on lower budgeted films for a while. If he does better films he may get another chance

Wow, Adobe.
You are fucking dreaming if you think these are reasonable per month prices.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised in the slightest. Like, not at all.
I hope so. I guess even the most artistically talented directors want a piece of that hollywood $$$ sometimes
like when Darren Aronofsky made that Noah movie.....

he had a pic on a skateboard so I hope he's on the cool end of the skating spectrum.

Get Phil Lord & Chris Miller, kings of making shit that really shouldn't work at all turn out amazing, on a video game film
If anyone could do it, it's them
Or Edgar Wright
EDIT:
Ask him to do like a sick 180 kickflip or something

I mentioned Netflix before, they were willing to give Adam sandler 80 million dollars to make a movie when his films are only profitable due to product placement.
Other 3D animated movies including despicable me and cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2 seem to be in the 50 to 80 million range pre marketing
Also blizzard already has more natural marketing than most Netflix movies even have marketing on top of a marketing budget for games already that they can cross promote.
It would be a way safer bet than the film that did happen (preferably with some external funding ofc) but I guess whatever company who made it was probably just throwing money at the wall and it wasn't a big deal if it failed miserably

I'm done with Adobe.

Halo, mass effect, star craft and a lot more have pretty interchangeable plots.
Ancient race that shaped the galaxy is trying to destroy certain life with the species they control which are actually mutated species of other types
I think Legendary's willing to try anything once. Good or bad, their movies are usually fun to watch.
Still haven't seen Trick 'r Treat. I'll take a look once I find it.
just get on with it and get some D before you combust
