Previewing

A few interesting updates on the menu today…

Sam Raimi was yesterday announced as the director for the upcoming Warcraft movie once he’s done with Spider-Man 4.
This announcement is certainly surprising.
I’m not sure how one can adapt a game like World of Warcraft though I’m here on out assuming that every news outlet is wrong by stating that this is a World of Warcraft movie adaptation, rather it is more of a movie based on the Warcraft mythology.
The Warcraft world  is comprised of two factions pitted against each other.
On one side, the Alliance with the Humans, the Dwarves, the Draenei, the Gnomes and the Night Elves.
On the other, the Horde, with the Orcs, the Forsaken, the Tauren, the Trolls and the Blood Elves.
There’s also the Burning Legion, the Scourge, the Goblins, the Ogres and the Naga.
For more on this, check out the detailed Wikipedia article on the Warcraft universe.

It’s like Lord of the Rings meets Dungeons & Dragons.

And since back in June I showed you Mickey Rourke as Whiplash in Iron Man 2, it’s only fair now that I show you the rest of the cast.


Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff aka Black Widow


Robert Downey Jr. as Stark


Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts


Don Cheadle as Col. James Rhodes and Sam Rockwell as Justin Hammer

Oh, and did I mention that the Alice in Wonderland teaser is out?
Feast your eyes on this:

Hell yes.
