From Cinelinx:
When I was young I was fascinated with video games. I still am to this day, but I had a passion burning that had me wanting to make games. I still dream of one day entering that E3 stage, but things turned a bit for me. I grew up during a time that was still developing game design, and programming. So I didn’t have a lot for me. What I did have was film, so I transitioned into making movies since I figured it was the closest thing to making video games. Yet to this day I still fight to bridge the two industries because the film industry simply does not accept videogames. This is why I believe video game movies are so terrible.
Death Whisperer Review: Nadech Kugimiya makes for a beefy protagonist in this horror movie that any and all thrills!
What Jennifer Did Review: Documentary navigates twists and turns of the story really well.
Anthracite Review: This Netflix thriller makes us go down several engaging roads and the twists and turns are delicious.
Because they get such lousy directors and feel like they can get away on the cheap.
Video games require creating everything from scratch. In live action film, you just acquire and manipulate what already exists. You can make all sorts of script changes in live action with relative ease, but any change in a video game requires a ton of backtracking. Excluding things like audio, where in a game you can animate a character to say whatever and change that at any time.
And in both cases - politics, politics, politics.
They are improving? LOL....are they hell
Untill the follow the source material they will never be good
Well the Mass Effect animated film was decent. Plus the Resident Evil CGI films were good too. I understand they are talking about live action but still...
Perhaps the upcoming Warcraft film will earn Oscar nominations?
