My other half downloaded a dodgy copy of it over the weekend, we decided the quality wasn't good enough to want to watch it that way (rather see the details properly!) but we saw enough of the scenery to totally agree there, it looked amazing, and much of it was totally recognisable :-) Karazhan was a bit bigger and more impressive than I imagined, but otherwise pretty much everything we saw while skipping through and not really watching (trying to get an idea of the scenery without spoiling everything) was accurate, and loved the murloc ;-) Hope the DVD comes out realtively early, I want to watch it now but hate crowds so cinema isn't ideal, plus from the clips we saw half the actors seem to mumble most their lines, so I'll likely need subtitles to actually follow it properly (part of why I don't watch films is I can't follow half of what's being said and I can't figure out who's who... it's hard to enjoy a story when you've no idea what's going on :-P ); I'll very much buy the DVD though, seeing the game come to life is pretty awesome, whether it's a great film or not. I saw a video clip of Chris Metzen wandering around in Stormwind a few weeks back, that must've been amazing for him seeing the world he created like that!
