- Duncan Jones has played the Warcraft games, World of Warcraft, and even Lost Vikings. He originally played Ultima Online.
- The Special Effects supervisor plays World of Warcraft and is level 90.
- Marketing hasn't started yet, so there isn't a ton to reveal yet.
- Jones liked the script, but it was very Alliance centric. He thought it would be better to make it about both sides and the original Warcraft.
- Jones turned down other films because he was really passionate about working on Warcraft.
- While working on Golden Compass, the special effects supervisor got up at 2 in the morning to do runs with his guild.
- Real actors will be used for the Orcs.
- Avatar meets Game of Thrones as far as complexity of visual effects with live action, advanced special effects, and motion capture on set.
- There is a lot of Warcraft lore, so they had to pick a certain amount of the lore for this movie.
- The team has to figure out which characters to shine the spotlight on.
- There is concept art for Draenor, Dalaran, Ironforge, Stormwind
- Making environments for the game has a lot of restrictions, but in the movie you can expand on the environment with less restriction and make it more grand / cinematic.
- Many locations in the film will be on built sets, like the Lion's Pride Inn.
- The most famous character in World of Warcraft is the actual world itself.
- Wardrobe and Costume design is being done by someone that has worked on Avatar.

- The story is Orcs vs Humans. [color=#ff0000;]Lothar[/color] and [color=#ff0000;]Durotan[/color].
- Durotan represents the highest ideal of the Orcs. He believes in his people and his future.
- Both want to do the right thing for their people.
- The games weren't the best way to tell this story originally, so the movie will be a great opportunity to tell the story in an even more epic way.

- Metzen would like to do a TV series one day. When they originally decided to do a movie, Game of Thrones didn't exist on TV yet, so most similar stories were told in movies. If everything goes well, maybe a studio will want to do a TV show.
- The Lord of the Rings movies inspired Jones to want to do this movie. He wants to match or beat them at making an awesome movie.
- Someone is working on the Orcish language for the movie.
- The movie will be PG13, but the PG13 rating is shifting. Batman movies are PG13.
