Movies cant adapt video games, but video games can sure as hell adapt movies

[@TrentM03]

XRazer5 I don't completely agree with the first part, but the second part, frick yeah.

[@mathunit1]

Jack Roche You forget that 10/10 videogame to movie adaptations are garbage. So yeah, video games can sure as hell adapt movies.

[@jackroche2065]

@@mathunit1 the problem with video game movies is that there is a fine line between taking too much from the source material (stuff like the Mario brother and shit) and more commonly, the ones that take very little (assassin's Creed [which I still believe could work as a rennisance set tv drama], the tomb raider movies (except the new one which was alright) etc.)

Pokémon: Detective Pikachu, The Angry Birds Movie 2 and the Sonic movies (both 1 & 2 in 2022) are the only video game film adaptations that have a fresh Rotten Tomatoes Score each, so that means something.

[@welcometothemetaverse2523]

And they came out a couple years after this video was made, so the prediction was right!

[@tokuelite5554]

Ironically angry birds 2 doesn’t follow any of the game’s story, it’s a new one. (Yes I play angry birds, I know that only Rio, Star Wars, Stella (it counts), and maybe space, have a different “story” than the rest discounting transformers and go)

[@Yosi-Berman]

To add to the "this one wasn't that bad" comments; The first 'Tomb Raider' wasn't some filmmaking masterpiece, but it was a good adaptation of the source material. Complete with the puzzles and action of the games, even the story. To add to the "this is also a good example of video game elements in non-adaptations" comments; 'Dredd' is built with literal levels the hero needs to overcome, with mini-bosses on the way, and the big boss at the end. 'Snowpiercer' has a slimier structure, but also explores it's world like a videogame where every new level expands our understanding of this world in a bioshock-y way

Cutscenes of video games are basicly like the movies them selfs right so why don't studios just follow them has blueprint to Create there movies

[@w.2665]

Because some, perhaps even most, directors are so pretentious. They direct and/or write video game movies, yet act as though the source material is beneath them. Same goes for comic book movies. Like Nolan pretending he had never read a comic book in his life even though his trilogy is lousy with plot elements, obscure characters, events, and even some lines/dialogue from the comics. But then again, who cares if he's a liar. He makes good movies. Edgar Wright is a very capable writer/director who doesn't take himself too seriously. He's very creative as well. I think he (or someone like him) can make a decent video game movie.

[@willordordona5429]

I AM Uhh THE GENUIS no it was a game first, the original silent hill was a game made in 1999, the first novel was made in 2006

Mortal Kombat is a guilty pleasure of mine. I know it's bad but I still enjoy it.

[@llhaken]

It's not that bad. It's more dated. It was good by 90s standards. Part 2 is a whole different story.

[@cats3332dblueshadowalpha1]

[@center4nerds]

Mortal Kombat was great but in its own way. It was such a controversial game it would of had to of been a cinematic masterpiece to of made a dent in movie purist opinions.

You know how there's B-movie cult classics? Like they suck and you know they suck, but whatever, you still like it anyways? That's exactly how I feel about Mortal Kombat, Super Mario Bros, the first Tomb Raider, and the Tron reboot. Everything else is unbearable brain-bleaching garbage though...

Assassin's Creed movie was not bad. Though the story was different, they captured the elements of the games. A second part is in the works, hope it will better

[@killiancraftofcraftyworks975]

I liked advent children.

[@Enderia01]

Killian Sebastian Craft As did I. It was an amazing use of animation to tell a compelling “after story” of Final Fantasy VII. Also, come on: who doesn’t love Sephiroth vs. Cloud? Those battle sequences were amazing

[@rbraunbeck96]

Advent Children is a sequel to a video game, not an adaptation, there was no Advent Children video game prior to it's creation. It's simply an original story thay continues the story from a video game

[@Raven_Redacted]

yeah, so have I. But i have never touched the video game sequel to advent children, Dirge of cerberus sounds weird, but its like what sega did to shadow the hedgehog. they took a character who is all edgy and dark, and made a shooter out of it, and the game itself it not great, the story had almost nothing to do with the og final fantasy 7, and the only part that interested me was genesis from crisis core is still alive. The other then that, it sounds dumb!

[@mattwo7]

[@dj-chemicalz811]

Although you do have to give it to Doom the Doom movie wasn't half bad some of the characters in it were cool and fun to watch, Karl urban and the rock were great in that movie and some scenes like the first person sequence, the fight between Karl urban and the rock and the first shot fired by the BFG have stuck with me for years. it gets a bad rap but it it's actually pretty decent and much better than things like the tomb raider movies. Silent Hill sucked but I actually quite likes the original resident evil movie plus apocalypse along with mortal Kombat but I could just be looking back on them with rose tinted nostalgia glasses

Why do gamers have a blind spot to the fact that most games are poorly written (and don’t even get me started about the “ACTING” lol) when compared to good movies?

[@γιουργια]

I mean, some games have great stories and are good written (eg mass effect trilogy, knights of the old Republic, Arkham series). But thing is most video games adaptions have tried to adapt the most popular games and not the most "cinematic" games

I think if Hollywood wants to make an effective video game movie they must choose a property that's not convoluted with plot elements. Video games such as Punch Out and Rampage could work for they have little story beyond what's presented, allowing directors to expand as they see fit.
