      @@mathunit1 the problem with video game movies is that there is a fine line between taking too much from the source material (stuff like the Mario brother and shit) and more commonly, the ones that take very little (assassin's Creed [which I still believe could work as a rennisance set tv drama], the tomb raider movies (except the new one which was alright) etc.)

    To add to the "this one wasn't that bad" comments; The first 'Tomb Raider' wasn't some filmmaking masterpiece, but it was a good adaptation of the source material. Complete with the puzzles and action of the games, even the story.
    To add to the "this is also a good example of video game elements in non-adaptations" comments; 'Dredd' is built with literal levels the hero needs to overcome, with mini-bosses on the way, and the big boss at the end. 'Snowpiercer' has a slimier structure, but also explores it's world like a videogame where every new level expands our understanding of this world in a bioshock-y way

      @w.2665 6 років тому +4

      Because some, perhaps even most, directors are so pretentious. They direct and/or write video game movies, yet act as though the source material is beneath them. Same goes for comic book movies. Like Nolan pretending he had never read a comic book in his life even though his trilogy is lousy with plot elements, obscure characters, events, and even some lines/dialogue from the comics. But then again, who cares if he's a liar. He makes good movies. Edgar Wright is a very capable writer/director who doesn't take himself too seriously. He's very creative as well. I think he (or someone like him) can make a decent video game movie.

    S6 Finale: Battle for Earth.
    All they'd have to do is make the sidequests more flushed out for filler, and write a better ending, boom, you have a series. Maybe give Shepard the Colonist/Ruthless background, so they can have development and a character arc through the series.

    Here is what I have learnt while playing No Man’s Sky and listening to this; with the right writer and the game devs and not produced by a major company, they could make No Mans Sky into an amazing movie with all the lore and characters. (this is just my lesser opinion though, so don’t take my word for it)
    Edit: I capitalized No Man’s Sky and I would like to add that it will take place across multiple movies if they want it to make the story and characters better

    Can't believe that the first video game he mentioned... Was the one that seals the fate of Video Games Movies for decades.

    Although you do have to give it to Doom the Doom movie wasn't half bad some of the characters in it were cool and fun to watch, Karl urban and the rock were great in that movie and some scenes like the first person sequence, the fight between Karl urban and the rock and the first shot fired by the BFG have stuck with me for years. it gets a bad rap but it it's actually pretty decent and much better than things like the tomb raider movies. Silent Hill sucked but I actually quite likes the original resident evil movie plus apocalypse along with mortal Kombat but I could just be looking back on them with rose tinted nostalgia glasses

    I think if Hollywood wants to make an effective video game movie they must choose a property that's not convoluted with plot elements. Video games such as Punch Out and Rampage could work for they have little story beyond what's presented, allowing directors to expand as they see fit.

    Why video adaptations suck: Writers/Directors/Studios have no concept of nor respect for the core content that are supposed to be emulating. Then they want to put that own "mark" on the product, leaving movie-goers with nothing that anyone ever wanted to see.
