Will Warcraft hit $50M?

Whatever it takes to get a sequel go fudging go!

Intro to Chinese version of the film had the following Universal China Film co ltd Tencent pictures Taihe entertainment production H.Brothers Legendary Blizzard Entertainment

51M is what it's projecting to do for the whole day? Or so far?

Sadly I've seen chats in the WoW community, many have watched it, but the high quality bootleg that's out there.. It's sad how so many Warcraft fans have streamed it instead of buying ticket

So has the international numbers been updated for this weekend yet? Or does the recent number include the second weekend of UK etc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ugh.. I hope a sequel happens, such a shame if it doesn't happen

I wonder what magic WW number it needs to get a sequel

But Canada counts in domestic no?

I'm kinda confused i know there are a bunch territories opening this weekend.. Can anyone make sense out of that

there was a total of 100 million paid unique subscribers during it's tenure. meaning that some played for months, some for years and there was a certain rotation. Also, there is the warcraft 1, 2 and 3 franchise that drew millions as well as Hearthstone that is based on warcraft that has 30 million active users. Just because someone stopped playing the game, doesn't mean that they don't want to see the movie. As far as the 5.5M subscribers, think about this, the game has been out for over 12 years and still has a freaking 5.5M subscribers! people were still using playstation 2 when WoW came out! ps3 didn't come out yet! tell me a game that came out at that time they have that many active players(let alone paying players)

we'll see lol I do think that everyone is completely underestimating the fanbase in the US. Also, Blizzard Entertainment has some of the most loyal fans you can ever imagine. they have 3 franchise games(4 now with Overwatch) and they have their own gigantic event called Blizzcon. No other gaming company has ever been able to do that. Maybe no one will show up.. I think it will open strong and perhaps fall quickly.

I enjoyed the movie. I wish Jones would have taken his time to tell the story. I think they didn't find the best way to present the world initially. It wasn't a problem with me cause I know the lore and warcraft so I really enjoyed it but I can understand how people can get confused and not get attached to the characters. I also think marketing wise, they should've done short stories weeks and months before the movie comes out to hype and give a little background on who the orcs are, where they initially came from, etc. same with the humans. It would've been a very unique way to market. I give it a B. I honestly think Warcraft should be a tv series if budget were to permit it, there is so much story and lore that it is extremely hard to put it into a 2 hour film.

Warcraft: $70M (yes I am going to look stupid, but Blizzard has a religious cult following lol sleeper hit) Conjuring: $31M Now you see Me: $24M
