Second movie I'll read a review about where IGN wanted to give it a -5/5 rating.
I'm ready to lay bets.

Book adaptations are nice and all (when it's done right*), but I'd rather see something new. To quote my sister, "Come on, people, be a little bit more original!"

*I consider Haruhi to have been done right.

Well I mean original thoughts are what we have good film makers for.* We got studio guys to take care of all the really shitty stuff. Hollywood is on a current trend of being afraid of good film makers, because all the good ones currently are some of the most influential and generally don't like the studios. But I mean studios don't really care about the artform, they're a business first.

Guitar Hero = $$$ in the VG industry = GH Movie = $$$ in the film industry

That's the thought process of a studio film maker. That's how it's always been, and weird enough it's usually been wrong. There's a reason B Movies of the old days are the ones that are still remembered today.


*See the Cohen Brothers

Edited out the Ratner jab, I misread it like an idiot.

Well Ratner is also planning on doing Conan. Unfortunately for fans of the Howard stories, he seems to be sticking to the Schwarzenegger style! WTF. The written character is so much more robust, awesome, and INTERESTING.

Someone should assassinate Ratner and get someone like Peter Jackson on Conan.
