    Super Mario Bros. (1993) was a cult classic.

    The 2023 movie is forgettable garbage.

    The Sonic movies are fun though. Knuckles TV as well.

    The Hoper Mario is something - it's so off the rails, that it's crusing on anothet track.

      Sorry, best we can do is having the audience dodge roll every scene.

      Didnt the John Wick movies usee the role effect? Using this one to introduce the dodge role would be funny.

        Doing Edge of Tomorrow style Progression where one actor plays different classes and steadily progresses could be an option. Explore the world from a changing perspective.

          I’m cautiously optimistic. The lack of a plot in the game leaves a lot of creative room for the film and the deep lore gives them a lot to work with. Also it’s Alex garland and a24 so like. I’m in.

          But also adds more chance of the movie to fuck up the lore for the sake of the movie's plot.

              Wreck It Ralph doesn't count because it wasn't based on an actual video game, but on video games in general. But it was indeed great.

              I don't know, just because the video game isn't real doesn't mean that the movie isn't based off of a video game. I think it just shows that the reason most video game movies fail isn't because the movie is bad, but because the fans are too harsh. If Wreck It Ralph replaced the main characters with characters from Mario but still had the same basic plot I don't think it would have been as well received.

                Personally I'm keeping my expectations low on this one. Game adaption to movie seem to always go to shit. Though personally would love a movie about the Bloodborne universe. I imagine a horror mystery movie about it.

                    I'm sure they'll fuck it up.

                    Name one good (serious) videogame movie. One.

                      Never played. I always thought it had horrible story telling intentionally. From soft games feel like reading a redacted report.

                        It could absolutely be a dumpster fire but I trust a24 to not fuck it up. They have a great track record and I think the whole minimalist storytelling thing is right in their wheelhouse. Time will tell though.

                          First, it's A24 and they put out amazing movies .

                          Second, Detective Pikachu, Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Bros Movie, and I'm not sure if it would count, but Wreck It Ralph are all good video game movies.

                          You just listed a bunch of animated children's movies?

                          If you're looking for actual examples there's Silent Hill, Fallout, or The Last of Us.

                            I don't think I'd consider Detective Pikachu or Sonic to be animated. Just like I wouldn't consider Fallout or Last of Us to be movies.

                              Take any trending media in the public consciousness and make a movie based on it. Minecraft, mario, whatever blah blah blah. I'm sick of it all. Don't disturb me I'll be napping

                                The original Mortal Kombat movie. The newest Sonic movie was also pretty good imo.

                                But yes, this can probably go very wrong.

                                Lol it may be an unpopular opinion but I don't think we can call mortal Kombat objectively 'good.' It's a cult classic for sure and a fun watch, but for reference it aired at Quakecon's Master Pancake sat night event one year with the MST3K folks and well.. they don't typically do blockbuster hits

                                  Can you make a movie out of pure lore? Maybe a prequel, like The Fall of Hoarah Loux or Ranni's Rebellion? Will the audience be required to parry things?

                                  If I were tasked with this project I'd probably make the plot about Vyke. It would mirror the tarnished"s journey enough.

                                        I have no faith that Hollywood will be able to actually capture the soul of the game's world and story. It's gonna be full of exposition.

                                          Season 1 was good. Season 2 is pretty terrible.

                                          Haven’t seen season 2 yet
                                          That’s disappointing
