I've been playing World of Warcraft for about 6 years now. I know what's happening and who the major players are, but I'm not a lore geek by any means. I'm looking forward to seeing the movie this weekend. My partner, on the other hand, made it up to level 8 on a new character - with the Recruit-A-Friend XP bonus - before giving up. They just couldn't get into the game and went back to playing LOTRO. They like fantasy films; they know there's orcs and dragons but couldn't tell Sargeras from Deathwing. I'm curious to see how our feelings on the movie differ.

It's worth noting that the primary purpose of the Warlords of Draenor expansion was to introduce the eponymous Warlords, as they are important characters in the movie that casual WoW players would have likely not known otherwise. That didn't work out well due to movie delays, and most of the Warlords are pretty generic.
