This really needs a live-action series adaptation, with Henry Cavill as Arthas! But for the love of god, DON'T MAKE A MOVIE! DON'T DO IT! Imagine if they tried to fit all of Game of Thrones into just one 1. 5 hour movie. It would never work! Instead, do it like a series. And take it slow. Use the first 3-4 seasons to describe the Arthas plot as a human paladin until he acquires Frostmourne. And do it sloooow! Take your time to flesh out the Arthas-Jaina love plot, introduce the characters like properly, like Antonidas, Terenas. Spend time on the court intrigue at the Lordaeron court between Terenas and his advicers, the political relations to Silvermoon, Gilneas, the Arathor kingdom and other human kingdoms, the Dwarfs, the troll savages ravaging the lands. Take your time to flesh out the lore.
And introduce the threat of the Cult of the Damned and the scourge plot as a mysterious, eerie slow threat as first, that nobody really knows anything about at first, and people maybe even don't want to acknowledge/talk about seriously (like how the White Walkers threat in GOT was introduced in series 1-6, but without dropping it all on the floor in season 8. And then slowly scale the threat upwards, until Arthas begins to loose his mind and culls Stratholme in Season 2-3.
But whatever you do Blizzard, DONT MAKE A MOVIE! Make a series like the Witcher / Game of Thrones, downplay the fantasy elements as much as possible, and DON'T name it -Warcraft-. Make it accessible to the general public, like naming it -Fall of a Kingdom- or whatever, so the name of the series don't immediately direct non-fans' attention to 30-year old guys sitting gaming in their mothers basement (sorry but it's true.
If done right, as a series, I think the Arthas plotline of Warcraft could be a massive commercial success. But only if done right.

What I don-t get is what happens to Arthis after this and before the undead campaign. There were 10 royal guards and Arthis had only 2 undead guards with him. By Warcraft standards, that-s only enough to hold off for a few seconds. 3 against 10 isn-t good math even in WC3. On top of that, he-s in the middle of the royal castle and it-s not unlikely he would be overwhelmed by all the other guards inside.

OK, unpopular opinion here, but the scene where Arthas picks up Frostmourne is pretty decent. The shot at 5: 30 is actually exactly the kind of work we expected for all cinematics, and the music sure helps. If that quality was kept in all cutscenes, this would be a different game. At least for the campaign.

Did you happen to use a Warlords battlecry 3 audio file in 2: 55? The ghostly scream is very similar, if not itself, to the sound produced by the undead's -halls of death- when clicked. (I think that was the name of their town center)

World of Warcraft was always too cartoony to me like the character look like cartoons compared to the rendered cgi scene and that really turned me off to world of warcraft.

Just took me a while to realize why everyone hated the remastered when they prefer the version Blizzcon showed 2 years ago in the cinematic terms, although the models are ok

I dunno what all the fuss is about. This looks perfectly fine for a $30 remake to make. I think people had higher expectations for this than what was reasonable.

I didn-t think a remake would make a game look way worse than the original but yet again Blizzard never fails to disappoint its fan base.

This is still one of the best cinematics in game history, second only to the StarCraft 2 Kerrigan cinematic.

Why does Arthas look like a soyboy/femboy? He doesn't look like a man anymore. Even Muradin's model looks goofy.

This game is the very definition of half-ass.
Especially considering the money and resources blizz has.

after those years still the same cinematic, that's already a really good reason why this reforge is trash
