The studio made Batman begins. I was hoping for a full CGI movie but the chances are slim that will happen now...

Just get all the races right please.
I dunno about that...there's full blown college classes dedicated to studying the whole mythology behind the world that Tolkien created. It actually goes quite a bit past what you get presented in Lord of the Rings. Albeit, Warcraft has a nice backstory, but Middle Earth has a whole mythology with different languages and back-stories and cultures.

They're both pretty awesome though. I love the Warcraft stuff.
