Why would you want to see a video game adaption? There's never been a good one in the history of cinema, probably because video games are an inferior storytelling medium
>>70635416
WARHAMMER 40K
even though its tenuously connected to video games
Clint Eastwood from his Madison County Bridges-Unforgiven years would be perfect for RDR
but he is far more interested in chasing his themes now than making easy films like them
>>70636083
Make it symbolic scenery porn and not a goofy action movie about monsters and shit and it would be fine, just a walking movie exploring themes of decay wth a few fight scenes here and there. Also dont give the character much dialogue, if any. Thing is, if you did this the majority of the brain dead twits that play this will say its boring with not enough action.
>>70636151
You could literally record the game, cut out the gameplay footage, screen it as a normal CG movie, and nobody would bat an eye. Prove me wrong.
Am I the only one who would like to see a movie based on Claude Speed and gta III
>>70636178
>inferior
No, just different. This is like saying film is an inferior medium because there are so many poor adaptations of good books.
If someone actually took the time to try, and wasn't just going for an easy moneymaker, they could make a good adaptation.

Do you want to see a GTA V bank heist movie as well?
>>70636178
I somewhat agree, storytelling isnt the point of videogames, its being in the story that is what makes games interesting, these stories that games tend to have are utter shite when presented without the gameplay, with a few exceptions. They always adapt the schlock games that dont actually have a definite or interesting story where the actual gameplay is the appeal and not the story, which is odd.
>>70636297
Art influences art influences art. To say it shouldn't is silly. You are saying to not be inspired (adaptation is one such) because it has already been done did better (to your taste).
Stop being so closeminded!
I would definitely dig film of CJ and Claude
>>70636008
They could do 1. It's a simple and light-hearted adventure story, although I don't know how they would play around a big plot twist about Revan, or would they even do it, considering everyone fucking knows the story.
2nd, certainly no. Story would get watered down or thrown out of the window completely.
>>70636348
1 was literally what the prequels should have been more or less
2 didnt even do itself justice
>>70636348
'story' 'writing' 'plot' is secondary to directing and quality of writing in general, how it is done - not what is done
>>70636315
that because they are cashing in on the ip
but basically good games dont need a good narrative, thats why crossovers suck
>>70636293
The problem with videogame adaptations is they try to have a twisty plot and introduce fucktons of characters with lots of scenes of talking and "acting". Make a simple plot and Mad Max it, make it all action with nice set pieces around a basic plot. 40K could just be that some Space Marines are sent to help a front like of Imperial Guards hold off against encroaching Orcs till backup arrives. You dont need to go off and explain the entire universe and the characters, focus the plot and focus on whats good.
Starcraft if done right could be epic.

Unless its about early Ryan and building rapture or the civil war, it would be retarded. Jack's story would be so gay to see on screen especially if you played the game; any movie based on a game with the same plot would be.
>not wanting a Bioshock cinematic prequel that leads up to the start of the first game with Pierce Brosnan as Andrew Ryan, Bruce Willis as Frank Fontaine, Steve Buscemi as Sander Cohen, Cate Blanchet as Brigid Tenenbaum, Glenn Close as Dr. Langford, and John C McGinley as Dr. Steinman
>>70636391
Then it's another argument for 2nd game to not get an adaptation - the best thing about it is a depressing atmosphere of a galaxy ravaged by war, where Republic barely holds together. I wouldn't expect Disney to greenlight a dark and gloomy SW film.

this. what makes most good video games good is the fact that, for the much-longer-than-2-hours they take to finish, the player is essentially writing the story themselves. sure, many games are still fairly linear in nature, but sandbox games are designed to not play the same way each time - unlike a movie, which is exactly the same every time you see it.
i think the only way a video game movie could possibly work would be to make a movie that ends just where the video game starts. that way, the characters and atmosphere would be related to the game, but the movie wouldn't be attempting to re-create the gameplay itself.
tell the story of releasing diablo and the journey to tristram - don't tell the story of the battle of the tristram dungeons, one that I can play myself.

It was 'my first shooter'. The level of 'interactivity' in Bioshock is significantly less than in previous better examples of the genre and it is utterly dwarfed by even its own predecessor.
The reason you feel clever playing and masturbating your interactivity bullshit all over here is because you are a retard.
>>70638967
You seem upset friend. You must be one of those marvelkeks who can't handle vidyakino's inevitable rise to power :^)
>>70639036
Bioshock would probably make a pretty good film for the exact opposite reason stated. It has an interesting visual hook, a nice scenario and a built in excuse for some ridiculous CGI action if that was the route they wanted to take with it.
It was barely a game to begin with.
I do like my Marvel shit though, wish someone would make some games with those characters.
This right here has a remarkable potential for a pure kino, with deathly elegant scenery, cryptic clues, Dark/Light/Fire symbolism, heavily relying on music, costumes and artwork
Just as the game is considered hard, a film adaptation will be incredibly difficult to pull off, but immensely rewarding. Greater the challenge, greater the victory.

as much as I love TES, they wouldn't make good movies because the things about TES that make them good are the open ended exploration, not the main storyline.
>>70635725
For the most part yes, but I think they could make an interesting Mass Effect movie, the writers could just make choices that aren't necessarily canon just to make it more interesting.
are they still going to make a Deus Ex: Human Revolution adaptation?
Actually the main problem with vidya adaptations is that the screenwriters haven't played the games or even read the plot of the games they just know the basic premise, so they're never faithfu adaptations.
Resident Evil flicks pretty much have nothing to do with the games aside from some of the characters and there's zombies.
Assassin's Creed, which people wanted a film adaptation based on liking the plot of the first few games, has very little to do with the games, the animus is different, the setting different, different characters. They're just adapting the premise not the plot.

This is the problem, games borrow heavily from already existing movies and genres so MGS would feel like a mission impossible / generic spy movie ripoff. Most video games are movie genres that have been done to death, but video games allow greater exploration and immersion, which is their appeal. Plus calling people a faggot in real time as you noscope the,m
There are no original video game storylines that studios would be interested in making except as a cash grab (ala assassins creed / warcraft ).
That being said, I would watch a Final Fancy 7 movie if it was done right. Directed by, say, Gilmo delTorbo
>The World's a Dying Cow
>>70644104
They could never do it justice. It would take too many great actors. It would take too much effort to make the setting work and look good, without it diverging into cartooniness. Just look at warcraft and how they fucked over the look of that movie. Finally the grand plot of the horus heresy is just too patrician for current Hollywood, literally. There are virtually no women involved and a huge cast of mainly white men involved in a giant political space drama and eventual rebellion. It could never be done in this day and age, and probably could never be done in any age, because 30k/40k will always be a nerd setting that will never reach normie status like Tolkien or Harry Potter, because it is too grimdark/violent, too male oriented, too crazy/nonsensical, and based on a miniatures game for autismos that make video game 'nerds' look like athletes.
