More Warcraft Please...

With the weather being so crazy here in Nothern California, it's been tough to get my quality time with the WoW toons. My poor druid was tossin' back some brews in Ratchet's ye old watering hole for far too long. And my Shaman has no doubt slit her wrists watching absolutely nothing happen in Sun Rock. Poor toons... I need more hours in the day.

Speaking of obsession... two major ideas to report:

1) I am currently leveling 4 classes (Warlock, Shaman, Druid, Paladin). This will bring my collection of 70's to 9. I already have a Rogue, Mage, Hunter, Priest, and Warrior. Not to mention a NE Rogue at 64. Once I finish all the classes Horde side, I'll shift to the Alliance. With any luck, I'll have all the classes on both sides complete before the expansion.

So you're probably thinking, "Why?" I can only respond by saying that leveling all classes is now the only appealing part of this game to me. Running around at Max Level for the chance at marginal upgrades is boring to me. Ever since I quit raiding, I basically PvP on my Rogue for Season 3 gear and volunteer my Warrior for tanking duties with various guilds who need some 16k unbuffed loving.

I even made a guild just for my Army of Alts. It's so nice to have my own guild bank. It makes moving mats around almost too easy. However, Blizzard... damn you for making each guild tab in the bank so damn expensive.

As for the second idea, simply put... I want a Warcraft movie. A series of movies (a la LotR) that tells the story of Warcraft lore. I'm sure plans are out there somewhere. But it needs to be well done. I don't want a silly amount of CG or poor acting. Although not a huge fan of Hobbits, I really felt the LotR series was well made. The cinematography was fantastic, the music kicked ass, and the acting was really quite good. Yes, I will admit the 3-hour ending was a bit much and the Hobbit gay-porn romp was kinda funny.

I was struck with the idea as I tried to drift to sleep last night without having had a chance to log in. It just seems like a natural transition. And given the huge player base, I'm sure the movie would be a smash. Admittedly, most video-game base movies fail at life (Resident Evil, Doom *giggle*). But the lore of Warcraft is deep enough that you could make a real story without the typical "shoot'em up" plot usually found in these movies.

So TDQ readers, share your thoughts! Which do you enjoy more, leveling a toon or running around at max level? Warcraft movie. who's with me on this? I've got like $20 bucks I can contribute to the budget! Let's make it happen.
