There’s a story of the fbi magic squad too. The elf is Mike Lowry, and the other guy is Marcus.Yea I dont think most people paid attention to the underlining social commentary but the movie hints at all these things. First thing I thought of when they went through the Elf part of the city was "they're pretty much Jews"
Orcs are like Native Americans/Aboriginals in Australia to me. It's crazy how they were even slaughtered back in the day by humans too in the movie.
The back story with the orcs/darklord/elves kinda resembles the bible though especially with references to the darklord being defeated 2000 years ago. It'll be interesting how they spin it for the sequel.

Yeah breh, it was entertaining. They are not speaking shakespearing English usually associated with this type of film but the film was ok.

It had pacing issues but I liked the take on the lore of King Arthur. Guy Ritchie planned it as a trilogy I would have liked to see his vision come to fruition.

I was thinking they were immigrants, especially since the Orc clan leader said he was born in the strong Orc community in Miami before he moved to LA.
The head racist cop said that his ancestors killed thousands of Orcs in the war against the Dark Lord in Russia 2000 years ago. So I think the Orcs were like the Mongol or Hun hordes from Asia invading Eastern Europe.
That would also explain why black people in the LA of this world are like black people in the real world:
I think the US developed pretty much the same way (colonization, slavery, etc) in this universe, then later on in the 20th century Orcs and Elves started immigrating from Eurasia. First to the East Coast then heading west.
