One of the complaints about the film was directed at its fast pacing and editing problems. Some viewers suspected that a lot of footage may have been deleted in post-production (possibly on studio orders), which would open up the possibility of a director's cut. Director Duncan Jones has acknowledged the problems, and stated that his initial cut of the movie was about 40 minutes longer. However, he denied that cutting out those 40 minutes were solely responsible for the pacing issues, and has put rumors of an extended version to rest: "Trying to make a movie like Warcraft, [...] you get killed by a death of 1,000 cuts. Not just editing cuts. [...] You go through a writing stage right up to the deadline of shooting the thing. [You lose] ideas in the writing process. Then sets change for whatever reason and notes come in. You're changing things around a three-and-a-half-year process. You get these little changes which are constantly course correcting you. [...] When you make a little change it doesn't seem like a big deal. When you keep making those little changes, [...] suddenly you're basically spending all of your time trying to work out how to patch up what has been messed around with." As a result, a lot of scenes ended up not being filmed or omitted in an early phase: "They cease to exist because the effects work never gets done. Some of it's not even at that stage. [...] So there is no possibility of ever being a director's cut. It's purely in my head." Nevertheless, Jones is "equally proud and furious about Warcraft", and would be open to the suggestion of a sequel.
