Cock ring duel in a dark alley confirmed
Get hype

Does he make money at the box office at least? Why is he allowed?
If the film was set in the original Thief universe at least I'd be exited since the atmosphere is goat tier. I'd always wanted an animated Thief movie actually in the style of the games cutscenes since they are so well done.
But the new reboot universe looks shit.

Calling it now.
Save this post.
I expect the highest quality.

What the fuck is this.

The directors previous work.
>>330728840
Yeah, let's make one of the most esoteric and complex stealth franchises into a mass-marketable hollywood blockbuster.
Fuck this industry so fucking hard.
Also, this confirms we'll never get another good Thief game.

This is fucking cringe-worthy.I hate capitalism.
>>330729837
Under Communism, you wouldn't get any shitty profit driven movies and thus wouldn't be able to cringe at them.
Capitalism wins again.

You mean producer? This guy must be a big fan of the games to produce two unrelated Hitman adaptations, yet both of them were terrible and didn't resemble the games in anyway.
>>330729940
I didn't say anything good about communism though.

I don't get it. How did that faggot pull it off twice and fail twice?
Reminds me of how fucking bad the Max Payne movie was.
Why is there no Call of Duty movie?

Square Enix has just entered my shitlist.

I'm just glad we basically have a never ending steam of quality fan missions being slowly released. The Thief community is so fucking based honestly.
There are enough good fan missions out that would equal the length of at least 2-3 more full length Thief games. We basically don't need a sequel at this point. And in the hands of fans you know it's safe and will be treated with respect.

It already is a blockbuster movie, they literally get hollywood screenwriters to write COD games plots, been doing it for years now. Only difference is between COD and action movies, in COD you can participate yourself in the shootouts between set pieces. A COD movie would literally be a downgrade at this point.
>>330730272
So Tomb Raider Reboot, Hitman Absolution, Nosgoth and Thief Reboot were perfectly fine, but a Thief movie is too much?
>>330730029
Just an alternative to consider.
