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.

Arthas always had been a good prince, if you played the original WC3 you can feel that he truly wants to save his people, every chapter in the campaign he gets more and more desperate to save his people, no one but him saw what he saw with the plague, and worst of all no one believed him it was that serious, to everyone else he was just an amateur prince playing knight. He does sound mad when he wants to purge his city without any proof, and it seems like he just wanted to kill people because he's gone mad. But in reality it was the only way to save his people and no one was able to accept that fact but arthas. He always did what's best, sometimes he stoops low but it was all for a good cause. Until he touched the frostmoure, then there was no turning back. In the original WC3 the people in the city didn't seem sick, because of the lack of animation, they just seem like normal people, if only someone believed in arthas, he probably never would ended up on this path.

42: 55 Archimonde's speech in this cinematic: -
_-Let this scar signify the first blow against the mortal world, From this seal shall arise the doom of men, Who, in their arrogance, sought to wield our fire as their own. Blindly they build their kingdoms upon stolen knowledge and conceit. Now they shall be consumed by the very flame they sought to control. Let the echoes of doom resound across this wretched world, that all who live may hear them and despair. -_

Something very subtle, looking back. The only cinematic scenes that were properly redone were Stratholme, Sylvanas' death and this. Almost like it was tying into Shadowlands. They even bothered to animate Arthas unconsciously reaching for the sword. But most importantly. HIS EYES ARE GLOWING after he takes Frostmourne. Why is that? Oh, could it be. Domination magic? Tichondruis said that the first soul the blade claimed was that of Arthas.

WoW/Warcraft is the closet game to what we truly live in called -All of All-. King Arthas was born by the flat line and is litterely the Lich King & Linch king. In about two years we will all see that we've been living behind a sinister magic cloak and have been living in a 196 Centillion year old infinity existence.
You'll be suprised what the the devs and others know when they made this game as well as the elder scrolls.

Its a shame these videos dont show the romance and bond he had With Jaina, listning to the audiobook for the second time now and these videos while accurate, are a bit streamlined in the dialogue and also his thoughts are hard to show in a movie, such as when he goes into lordaeron and catches a petal that blackens, then he is thinking about Jaina and she would have been showered With petals if they had married

in truth Arthas actually saved Azeroth by betraying the legion. The legion were far more dangerous than arthas (arthas was more powerful than most demons) but he seemed to lack an interest in world domination. He wanted Lordaeron, and took up seat in Northrend. That sliver of him that was in there held the scourge back, and he forced the legion back.

Reviewing this during SL 9. 1. very intriguing. It would seem that the Lich King is playing the long game under the direction of the Gaoler in order to fight off the Legion once and for all. Worth the sacrifices. Sylvanas is caught up in something she never understood the scope of and the Old Gods are still around.

Arthas is realist prince, he not want to risk the entire kingdom to save several infected village, he not that naive. He know people have zero chance once infected and cannot be saved with normal means. Of course he search for a way to save them and he really desperate searching for saving his people.

sad to think the high elves at least could have resisted the Scourge for a while, even repelled them if they hadn't been so arrogant and been betrayed. it leaves one wondering how victory or defeat can sometimes depend on so few things.

I still don-t understand how they make insane cinematics for cutscenes and then abandon them upon release like how much would it have increased the price and the game would be have better care too

Hi. Question for the more knowledgeable people
Medivh is supposed to be a legendary wizard in Warcraft right? Did nobody recognize him at all? Was the gap between Warcraft 1-2 and 3 that long?

I thought Illidan was supposed to be in Kalimdor after Malfurion and Tyrande's Mission to awaken the druids? but here Arthas seemingly meets Illidan near Lordaeron. Did someone teleport?

Sylvanas' death and transformation into the banshee she became is now even more saddening with WoW: BFA in mind.
Sad because they ruined such an interesting character.

That Arthas vs Illidan fight.
Effects and facial animation are great. But the choreography is a complete disaster.
The original is short and snappy at least.

For me WoW has ended with the death of Arthas. It was a final conclusion of an epic journey worth of a lifetime. There won't be anything like that any more.
