It might not be known to everyone but to the fanatics that play it around the world, Warcraft is a big deal, and the movie version has just hit the big screen.
Warcraft is set in the human world of Azeroth, which becomes a battleground when Orcs invade the peaceful realm to flee their dying home.
But when it comes to Orcs we did it first -- and best -- with Lord of the Rings.
It's something not lost on the film's director, David Bowie's son Duncan Jones.
"We tried to make a film that would measure up to that giant in fantasy," he says.
And he gives it a pretty good whack.
Cast member Travid Fimmel says filming was a lot of fun.
"And you get paid for it," he says. "You get free food. You're riding horses and using swords."
But it wasn't as easy on set for everyone
"We were working really hard, calltime 6am, up at 4am, you go in, you shave and have a coffee," says Rob Kazinsky.
"And then you see Paula [Patton] was there at 3am, three hours of make-up then walking around in the middle of winter in Canada in a loin cloth."
"The first day I had to go to work and everyone was clothed and I had to go out there," Patton says.
"I just had to go screw it, let's do it."
While Kazinsky didn't get to wear the skimpy outfits, he does have a greenstone necklace gifted to him by Sir Peter Jackson.
"Actually I'm on an NDA about it, I cannot talk about [it]," he says.
"Peter is a great dude and I can't talk about the project, but when we parted ways this is what he gave me as a memory and I'm forever grateful."
Secret greenstone aside, for all fantasy fans Warcraft is a must, and it's in cinemas now.
