If the Assassin's Creed movie does well do you think it will give rise to vidyakino? If so what games could handle the transition to film?

S.talker would be great as a film
it wont do well tho
assassin's creed will not do well
there will never be vidyakino. videogames will continue to be in a juvenile cultural ghetto just like comics have been for the past 80 years
almost no videogames would be worthwhile to adapt cinematically. most videogames are already extremely derivative of movies.
Mortal Kombat is still the best vidya to film translation to date
Halo
Sleeping Dogs
Uncharted
Heavy Rain
The Last of us
Minecraft the Movie.
Ryan Gosling as the autistic main lead.
he just digs and stares a lot, just like the people who play it.
You can't make a good videogame movie. You just can't, They are two entirely different mediums. Imagine trying to make a Dark Souls movie. You can have the best sets, best effects, best costumes, best music, but at the end of the day, it's just a fucking fantasy movie with names slapped on. The whole point of Dark Souls is the fucking gameplay, the exploration, managing your stats, learning boss movesets, learning weapon movesets, piecing together a story from bits and pieces that you have to search for yourself, you can't replicate that in a movie. Control is the key element and you don't have control in a movie. The exact same goes for this movie and all other videogame movies. They're a pointless exercise in cash grabs.
A move that had the potential was the wow one, it failed. Nothing else, especially AC is going to change anything.
I would watch a movie about Bloodborne if it was made with love, time and money and if they use the waking out of the nightmare arc. Also probably The last of us if they focus on the cinematics of the post apocalyptic aspect and lots of kinoporn shots. I would also like to see commander keen children's movies.
i don't think jj abrams will ever actually get the half-life and portal movies off the ground and i am grateful for it
Movies based on games will never really work well.
They either change the script drastically to be very little like the game in order to capture the normies or they cater to the gamers (who are notoriously fickle and tribalistic)
I have a friend that is a huge warcraft fan, he refused to see the movie due to issues he had with the game (some private server shit). That's how stupid gamers are and why movies aimed at them is a mistake.
not counting silent hill
Do you even know what a derivative is
lmao
you're mom is derivative
Mass Effect
Red Dead
Fassbender will save video games
It's incredibly hard to do because videogame stories are already depicted in visual mediaform. So the movie will just spawn a conflict of interest.

I think the biggest problem with the transition from vidya to film isn't just writers' attempts to draw in a larger audience. It's not just a matter of converting from one medium to another. It's about revoking the sense of control that players have over their environment. When making a film adaptation of a book, you can just do the plot of the book, maybe make a few changes here and there to make it more screen-worthy. Comic books are a little trickier, since you're really working with more of a mythos than a simple story, but slap an origin story, a few plot points from several storylines, and a big baddy together and you've got yourself a box-office hit.
With video games, however, it's a whole different ballpark. By adapting the story of a video game directly, you're just remaking that story, except depriving the audience of the one thing that makes video games special: controlled outcome. So that's pretty much off the table. So you make it a whole different story! But wait... can't do that either, because then it's just another fantasy/sci-fi/whatever movie with a name brand title slapped onto it. The only video games that could conceivably make good films are open-ended ones like Starcraft or game franchises with established mythos like LoZ or even Mario, but even then you'd be dealing with the baggage of trying to craft a narratively fulfilling, narrow story in a canon with endless possibilities, most of which will not have the chance to be included.
But that's just my two cents.
Civilization directed by Terrance Malick when?
So many game adaptations are in development hell.
>Uncharted
>Halo
>Mass Effect

The studios are just sitting on the rights waiting for vidyakino to be the next big trend.
Assassin's Creed is going to bomb
>opening a week after Rogue One
>Passengers opens same week
If they could turn Battleship into a movie then they can pull this off.
Pitch Black came before the games.
Brilliant.
>those non-existant biceps
I'm 100% sure it won't do well. Both critically and boxoffice-wise
That movie did not fail. It was super popular in China.
>mfw it's actually true
Super Mario Brothers. This time, make it 3D animated.
Absolutely plausible.
Would be Max Payne'd.
Alan Wake would be popcorn-core
Not for anything, they could make pic related into a movie.
