There is probably no name more reviled in the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] realm of film than Uwe Boll -- he's the world of warcraft gold man behind such horrible games-to-films as House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark (the latter of which, I am somewhat embarrassed to say, I tried to watch). And while it isn't really news that Uwe Boll isn't directing the World of Warcraft movie (we already knew,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], from back at Blizzcon,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that Legendary Pictures is handling it, and Boll usually uses his own financing and production companies), but this is too great a story to pass up. Apparently when Boll heard that a Warcraft movie was being made,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he actually went to Blizzard to try to get it done, and they told him straight up: no, never, not in a million years.
Actually, Boll himself tells the story over on MTV Movies as "we will not sell the movie rights,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not to you.... especially not to you." Which is pretty hilarious. He himself also says that "because it's such a big online game success, maybe a bad movie would destroy that ongoing income, what the company has with it." So yes, he pretty much guarantees that any movie he makes would be a bad movie anyway.
So there's at least one great thing we can say about the Warcraft movie so far: Blizzard at least cares enough about the quality of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the flick to not let Uwe Boll make it. This doesn't guarantee us a good movie,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], of course. But it's nice to know that the higher ups at Blizzard know to keep their property away from this nut.
