Born in 1975, the product of two beautiful parents. Raised in West Baltimore—not quite The Wire, but sometimes ill all the same. Studied at the Mecca for some years in the mid-’90s. Emerged with a purpose, if not a degree. Slowly migrated up the East Coast with a baby and my beloved, until I reached the shores of Harlem. Wrote some stuff along the way.

Or not. Wow.com sums up what we know about the Warcraft movie which, basically, is not much. I wish Arthas' story wasn't so ripped from LoTR and Star Wars. Icecrown is a disgrace on that count. I can't see them going with the standard Lich-King story, though they claim Thrall will make an appearance. Be nice if he were the hero.
