“The biggest change that we’ve seen over the last few years when it comes to video game adaptations is respect of the source material”
How did they go 30 years before trying that?

See: Uwu Boll and the horrible, horrible excuses for video game movies he put out.
Probably too many old fart executives that “know better”, plus directors or writers with a pet project that have to drop it and work on a “stupid game movie”
Also Uwe (suck my) Boll for tax reduction
Not sure if this is a rhetorical questions, but I assume a statement like that comes from examples like the “Borderlands” movie. I’m not a gamer, but I remember seeing a lot of talk around the casting not being true to the game.
🤮 Fortnight the movie is already getting shopped i guarantee it. Hell will there be microtransactions during the film.
for $100(+) you can have your player char show up in the big finale when the hero returns, like that medal ceremony from star wars.
You have a movie ticket and a deluxe movie ticket with special in movie content that only you can see with special AR glasses and instead of ads at the beginning of the movie. We shows ads all the time and they change based on what data we have collected from you.
Hollywood five years from now when they’ve milked this to death and have to try come up with original and creative ideas again: “Please save us! We’re in ruins!” And just like with the MCU, all of the people that were happy to cash out when these video game movies were at peak popularity will be blaming video game movies for being the death of cinema and art the moment one movie performs poorly.
Fall Guys The Movie 🤣
You say that, but the first Angry Birds was actually pretty good as kids movies go. It probably helped that there was an incredibly simple premise, and they got a not terrible writer to put something pretty good around it.
That’s a good point. I just saw a game with no plot and assumed it couldn’t be a movie. But a little ingenuity could make it work!
