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.

What… uh… I can’t imagine this movie being weird enough to feel like a movie based on a FROMSOFT game while still being accessible to the wide audience needed for a big budget fantasy movie to make money.

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

The 2023 movie is forgettable garbage.

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

I kind of hate Elden Ring. I've played plenty of these games, but I've died easily like 2 or 3 times more here. And, more often than ever, I don't know what to do next, which is easily compensated with another couple of deaths. Nah, I will never watch this.

Silent Hill

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

Its funny in this case because not "fucking it up" effectively means making a movie that's barely related to the game outside of the basic setting.

Hope they make something trippy like The Green Knight

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.

The last of us was great too. Not a movie still. But .

"A24" is the only thing here that gives me a tiny bit of hope.

I really wish studios would just start hiring writters and making original content. Im so bored of everything being ripped from other media.

I think about this a lot

I love the idea of media expanding on the lore, but needing to insert a plot could ruin it

My only "solution" is a TV series instead of a movie and every episode should be a separate story

That one got a lot of hate, but I actually liked it. Not so much the second one, though.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

i agree i immediately do not care about franchise products these days
