Warcraft

In the film’s climax, King Llane chooses to sacrifice himself by telling Garona to kill him. His hope is that by doing so, Garona will earn the respect and trust of the orcs, helping to pave the way for peace between humans and orcs. This act of self-sacrifice is driven by Llane’s belief that true understanding and harmony can only come if leaders on both sides are truly courageous enough to make such sacrifices. As Garona kills Llane, she gains the admiration of the orcs, which might help to bridge the divide between the two races. Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Durotan, a noble orc leader, confronts Gul’dan, the corrupt orc shaman, in a duel called a Mak’gora—an orc tradition. Gul’dan cheats with fel magic and kills Durotan, but his dishonorable act doesn’t immediately turn the orcs against him. Later, another duel unfolds when Lothar defeats Blackhand in a Mak’gora, and at Gul’dan’s command, the orcs are about to kill Lothar, but Garona intervenes and speaks to the orcs, earning their respect and stopping the violence. The movie’s ending hints at the future of the Warcraft universe with the birth of Durotan’s son, Go’El, who will eventually become the famous orc Warchief Thrall, laying the groundwork for the Horde’s rise. The closing scene shows baby Go’El floating down a river, with Durotan’s voiceover, foreshadowing his important role in the future stories of the orc race. The ending also reflects the larger themes of the story—conflict driven by misunderstandings and the hope that compassion and bravery can lead to peace, even amidst endless cycles of war. The film diverges from the original game plot in some ways to focus more on character development, but the core themes remain: the possibility for peace between different races, and the costs of leadership and sacrifice in a world torn by war. Ultimately, these events set the stage for future conflicts and the legendary figures that shape the Warcraft universe.}
