Humans".  The movie will undoubtedly reference this far more than World of Warcraft.Because it's an established franchise AND a video game besides, the story can't have too complex or lore-ridden plot; the 'barrier of entry' has to be low, and the lowest barrier is your non-gamer type who's going to be dragged along with their kids.Avatar wasn't terribly complex but had that shiny new 3-D technology to bolster its (arguably) lackluster story.  The CGI of the Orc actors is phenomenal... but still won't be enough to get non-gamers to watch it.</blockquote>
