Nothing new on the movie production after BlizzCon 2011
November, 1. 2011.
So, one more BlizzCon is behind us but this one was different. Usually they would atleast say something like - we are working on it (movie), but this time nothing, not a word about the movie production.
They announced the new expnasion for WoW - Mists of Pandaria, but also introduced interesting offer - if you sign for 12 month subscription for WoW you get Diablo 3 (digital version) for free, pretty cool mount and sure spot for MoT beta testing. Its good offer for ppl who will play WoW anyway and wanna get Diablo 3, like me ie. :)
What made Blizzard to make such a deal, I would say a few game competitors that will be out in next 6 months. How to keep ppl on paying list so they dont put their accounts on hold for few months while they try out new games - simple, give them free Diablo 3. Even those who would play only Diablo 3 would prolly stop WoW for sometime, but this way you get D3 for free and Blizzard gets 12 months of sure subscription money. Its a brilliant move, I can give them that.
Its pretty obvious that WoW is declining, I am a big fan of Warcraft universe and play WoW for 6-7 years, but the new expansion announce didnt really make any emotional response from me, I was just - yeah, whatever. I will buy it even thou from the first look doesnt look too much promising, but time has its toll on WoW and now they are pissing off fans with no new info about movie.
They are teasing ppl with movie for like 4 years now, I think its time they start working on it cuz they will miss the peak of the WoW interest among the players. I'm running a WoW movie fansite and I'm losing interest ffs :P
Ahh, just my two cents....

Movie work is heating up in last few weeks. After little info coming out about project now we finally get some real info.
There have been a lot of stories going around about the World of Warcraft movie from who will be directing the project, to who will be starring in it. It was initially claimed that Sam Raimi would be at the helm but since he left to do his Wizard of Oz prequel it was believed he would no longer be involved.
Hot, upcoming actor-screenwriter Mark Hildebrandt has discovered his warrior within through film fighting training with Bob Goodwin. In about four sessions per week for well over the past year, Mark has honed stunt fighting skills that he plans to put to good use in major lead roles in a truly impressive slate of upcoming feature films. 



For months there have been a few celebrities who have openly revealed in interviews they would love a role in the upcoming Warcraft movie , to be directed by Sam Raimi. The first one was Brandon Routh (Superman Returns), and now an actress has done so. A few days ago, Michele Morrow revealed to Fangoria during their interview her interest in the Warcraft film. I reached her to learn more about her career, and her interest in games. I was surprised to hear she is a guild leader in World of Warcraft and currently tackling Saurfang Jr. in the Icecrown Citadel.
