I loved DofP and First Class but this XMen just doesn't look interesting at all. I don't particularly see that it offers any development to a franchise that I feel needs a progression of story.

With Warcraft, I think I have a pretty good idea of what I'm getting. I wish it'd be better but whatever.

Trying to decide on matinee movie tomorrow morning.

Warcraft is good. The pacing is rough sometimes but the CGI orcs are so well done it might be worth it just to see that technology in action. They feel real.

ETA: I've seen both and liked warcraft more.

If you've seen the first two, go for X-Men. It's not near as bad as the reviews would have you believe. The only people enjoying Warcraft are the fans.

This is a lie. Just look at the fan reviews on reddit for example.

Also the X-men movie he is talking about is apocalypse not first class. If it was first class you go first class all day everyday.

I'm sorry. Watching MSU's baseball game right now and it is a bit stressful was a tie game with bases loaded with AZ batting in the ninth.

I meant people who never played the game. Forgive me in this stressful time.

ETA: Regardless I have seen a lot of non-fans say they enjoy the movie. Now if you are a movie purest you will hate it. But if you are an average movie goer it is entertaining.

I would go turtles over Warcraft and Xmen over both. Though I saw Conjuring this weekend.

Having seen both, unless you are an avid WoW player that would enjoy the movie just because it's a movie about the game, go see X-Men. I think Warcraft could have been much better, but they really did a poor job casting several roles. X-Men isn't great, but it's the easy call between the two imo.

X-Men Apocalypse is the better film.

How is this even a question? The previews for Warcraft make it look terrible.

Well, for Appcalypse, I'm sick of wolverine, I don't like Jennifer Lawrence. I don't like the chick who plays Sanda Stark. I don't like the idea of the teenage XMen. I love Oscar Isaac and I'm worried about him looking ridiculous. I felt like first class and DofP were more adult comic book movies and this looks like it's going in the other direction. That's why I question apocalypse.

You haven't seen it but you already are wishing it was better?

I've seen them both and both were good movies.

Personally, I liked Warcraft slightly more because I am a fan of the games and seeing some of the places in the games brought to life was simply amazing.

I was not that crazy about how Apocalypse was portrayed. Honestly he was overpowered one moment and weak as hell the next. He really didn't do any of the stuff he did in the comics with his powers. It wasn't a terrible portrayal of him, it just wasn't what I expected.
