Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Xbox 360| PS3 | PC | Wii U

With Oz: The Great and Powerful set for a March 2013 release, World of Warcraft fans hoped that director Sam Raimi would be moving on to direct an adaptation of the massively popular MMORPG. But in the two years since it was announced that Raimi would be directing the film, there has been no solid developments, and things weren’t looking good for the adaptation.
Now a new interview confirms every World of Warcraft player’s worst fears: Raimi is not directing the big screen adaptation, a film that has been stuck in development hell for a very long time.
