Pfft. You guys are crazy. That movie looks sweet as hell. I\'m going to walmart so I can get some supplies and a tent. If you need me, I\'ll be in front of the cineplex waiting for it\'s release.  8)

Ow. My spleen is throbbing in pain from the mass amounts of sarcasm.  :(

Seriously though; My point lays basically in the fact that if a game is good enough, you don\'t need a movie for it. Small animatics, cutscenes and other videos all can be emotionally gripping and exciting when pulled of right and put in the right places. Halo, Grand Theft Auto, and of course the Final Fantasy series (although the series was still pretty spectacular without them previous to VII). We shouldn\'t be blaming just Hollywood. We already expect them to be money grubbing scoundrels with a blind eye to the feeling of common gamers (and people in general, really  :rolleyes: ) . We should however be placing our blame on developers and other owners of the creative liscense for letting these things become reality, AND for making terrible cutscenes and putting them in the wrong places in the first place.

On a final note, I think the main inspiration for this was in Mortal Combat\'s runaway success way back when. It\'s success is truly an enigma. Well then again, it was somewhat entertaining after I ignored the massive cranial hemorages... :O

EDIT: On a final FINAL note....


BOOBIES! Wewt!  :P

Good News for Metal Gear fans.

MGS3:Subsistence will have 3 discs and the third one there will be a 3 hour long movie edited from in-game cut-scenes and new material directed by Hideo Kojima himself. :)

Yeah, FF Spirits Within. What a total failure that was. Never heard of FF: Unlimited, but FF7: Advent Children was, thankfully,  the redeemer of the rubbish Spirits Within turned out to be. Advent Children is teh worthy of the Final Fantasy name. :]

spirts was a decent movie if the ff tag wasn\'t attached to it. unlimted, well, was a poor licencing choice, and it was run over roughly 13 hours rather then the 2.
may laanx frighten the shadow from my path.
hardly because the shadow built the lexx.
the shadow will frighten laanx from my path.

This makes me so mad. They ruined Tomb Raider, they ruined Spirits Within, they ruined Doom, and now -this- looks like an absolute massacre.

No wonder non-geeks think us geeks are such... geeks. They take one look at these \'movies\' of the games we love so much and think \"who the f*** would like this rubbish\".
