They'd have to clean up the script a bit obviously, but I think a gritty war movie set in that universe could be interesting if it were taken seriously and budgeted properly (which is why one will never be made).

2 was bad bad. 3 was a hilariously awesome kind of bad, plus they got Casper van Dien to reprise.

I'm pretty sure someone at Bungie was watching Roughnecks when they started the Halo franchise, to the point I'm pretty sure the character design / warthog is an homage to the show.
Second the idea that after the original movie you should ignore the sequels and go to the cartoon.

I thought the CGI Troopers movie was actually good, better than 2 and 3 was just... odd? but at least 3 advanced the plot.

New TV spot released today. Sorry, my embed skill is not maxed yet.

Looks much better in my opinion, the CGI has definitely improved, but may still be improved a little before release, especially how lighting appears sometimes different on CGI characters and human characters.. The dwarf looks a little plasticy and a few Orcs here and there as well but this definitely gave more of a Warcraft vibe, especially the intro.
I see people complaining about how Garona looks weird because she doesn't look like other female Orcs in the movie, but they probably don't realize or remember that she's half Orc half Draenei and is supposed to look different (may be too human in the movie though, we'll see how they handled the hooves, I expect her not to have them at all).
I liked the Knee Slide Castration move at the end, I kinda want that as a talent for my warrior now.

lol, all this time I'd thought she was half-human, which I always thought didn't seem possible considering her age and how long the dark portal had been open.

I'd argue that there is something refreshing for the masses in seeing a medieval fantasy movie in this era of constant super hero movies. Back in 2005, Warcraft movie would have been on the tail of Lord of the Rings (and paled immensely in comparison after the acclaimed ROTK), and there was also those Narnia movies and a few other medieval fantasy franchises.
Now, this is pretty much the only one coming this year except maybe Snow White and the Huntsman sequel, and there is still a pretty massive fanbase for Warcraft (not necessarily people who play WoW).
