  1. About the title... by i+kan+reed · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Why "World of" warcraft? Is the plot of the movie going to have the inherently global scope that an MMO does? Does Warcraft have a seriously different name recognition from "World of Warcraft"? Does it mirror the "plot" of the MMO? Or does it just take place in Azeroth?
