This movie will be such shit. It will tout "most popular movie of the season!" strictly because it will rack in that odorous autism bucks from the barely breathing community, even though they will probably hate it too. Regardless of the bad reviews, the ticket sales will count.

The entire theme is as fucking basic as it comes, even if it didnt have the brand name attached.

We've been over this.

Video games are a lower art form than movies, in the same way that movies are a lower art form than books.

You can make a good movie out of a book, but not a good book out of a movie.
Just like you can make a good video game out of a movie, but not a good movie out of a video game.

I saw the preview for it when I saw Star Wars.
Some guy in the back yelled "For the Horde!"

I almost died of second-hand embarrassment.

I never understood why Max Payne was so hated.
I felt that it was mostly true to the main game, and was awesome to watch.

Granted the use of Valkyries wasn't really great but then at least we didn't lose a third the movie to Mark As Max running along a blood trail in complete darkness.

Oh look, its another one of these pretentious cunts.

Also, you have no idea what you're talking about. You can adapt any piece of work from one medium to another provided that you understand both mediums and what makes them unique from each-other. Its kind of like translating something from one language to another, you have to make some changes in order to have things make sense in the other language.
