I think ultimately the mistake they made with this movie is kinda like if they started the Lord of the Rings movies at The Silmarilion because it's the events of the first game retold and the story isn't really that nuanced or the most interesting until Warcraft 3 and after, and these events are 30-40 years ago in World of Warcraft and I think work better as tragic backstory than having to watch a tragedy in motion

I support this fully

Still waiting on the New Orc City one shot.
Summer Tribe
sounded like it gave caldwell some psychic damage as well
Jessica Olsen
Not to dwell on the birth scene anymore but the warlock orc just pulled it out in front of everyone and god??? She was wearing pants??? The baby was very dry??

See I was thinking of Bill and Ted but when Napoleon goes to the ice cream place, not any Station scene

"Okay Caldwell slide your D in some good pudding" gave me psychic damage

A weird dank cellar, y'know, for Instagram

This movie is actually based on the book The Last Guardian. It makes more sense if you've read the lore. But it's still not that great of a movie. The book is better. It also introduces thrall as a baby and you find out about his story in the book Lord of the Clans.

I actually really like this movie. But I am bias as I am a fan of World of Warcraft. I felt the group relied too much on comparing the film to LotR; or the idea that this film should have "conformed" to some standard of a non-existence fantasy guide. I whole hardheartedly disagree with them on their opinion on the visual s of magic in the film. I felt this movie showed magic the best in any other fantasy film. But if anyone else has a another example I would gladly like to hear about it.

for the love of God I desperately need y'all to run a game of New Orc City

i finally listened to this and then immediately rented this on prime video. currently watching it, almost done, it’s legit everything discussed. i also am watching it on a 4k tv, so i feel the pain there haha. what i can’t get over is preacher and tulip as king and queen i. their terrible wardrobe. absolutely hysterical!

Can someone post the patreon link for New Orc City, please... Take my money, it's yours, just make this movie!
Josnak
Solid rating! I personally gave it an E. It didn't make me wanna play the game, but it did make me want to look at the game cinematics.
Gareth Bryceland
Listened to this once having never seen the film. JUST finished watching it and listening again. Also I'm sure the orc baby dick was an umbilical cord.
Jackson Paine
Please do new orc city!!
Alex aka Zol Ark
Um this is weird because I got this post card after re-listening to 8-bit book club... it says “Sonic misses you from love from your friend from hell” and on the other side it says “Welcome to Metal City!”

It was an H for me - Moonshine

Oooh! Thanks!
Josnak
There are green orcs! Afaik those are the ones infected with the fel magic.
Brandon Rodriguez
That orc baby is thrall
Jordan D. Johnson
I love this so much. Legit, I could imagine in my mind every single scene they made up about New Orc City. Please let it be spelled "New Ork City" and the trailer shows an axe or something flying through the air at a New York city sign and it goes through the "Y", making it disappear.
Emily
Ok, I have so many things to say, I can’t order them in my brain so let’s just go with “New Orc City sounds amazing! It would be SO funny as a one shot! I’m just picturing Emily as a pregnant orc and laughing so hard!”
Emily
I’m SO confused! I went onto IMDB to check out the film and Garona’s a half orc and green but none of the full orcs are green?!? What?
Jesse Wallis
I didn't think the movie was as bad as they seem to. It wasn't great, I wouldn't even call it good....but it was an ok watch, had some good parts, had some bad parts...but overall, I'm not sorry I watched it.
Jacq Attack
omg, yes
George Ko
I have never been more inspired to watch a movie than after the 13th mention of "pregnant orc" and "orc baby dick""
Josnak
But what would you rate it on a scale from A-J??
Jesse Wallis
There was an Adventure module, called “It’s a Half-Orc Life”...savage humanoids that had been sent to a civilized orphanage. Like a monster version of ‘Annie’. It was fun. I played a hobgoblin ranger.
Jesse Wallis
YES!!! Please write the “New Orc City” script.

I love 8-Bit Book Club...
Cecilia
I love this so much. I’ve missed 8 bit book club.
Will Brannon
You guys have to do something like this for the Game of Thrones finale
