Duncan Jones Handles Awkward Warcraft Interview Questions With Class

“Were you the wrong man to make the film?” he asks.

“If you’d concentrated on the Orcs… would you have been able to deliver a film that was more coherent?” he adds.

The confused exchange of glances at the end of the interview as Rosser ups and leaves is priceless.

Indeed, the 'Warcraft’ movie has not done anywhere nearly as well as expected at the US or the UK box office, and it’s been roundly panned by critics.

But it’s going absolutely great guns in China, where it’s had the biggest debut weekend of all time.

So far it’s made a staggering $156 million in just five days.
