Sony has just announced that a new writer and producer have been signed to create the EverQuest movie, which is amazingly still in production even after all this time.

 

Hmmm, not sure about an Everquest game. I mean, what's the story of Everquest?
Just hope it doesn't end up like this

 

Resident Evil was a good example of a game turned movie (even if the movie storyline didn't match with game's).....

 

I hope when it comes to DVD they have a Joke Subtitle set you can select like they did for the first IT Crowd Episode that was so funny!

"Start CH Rot on MT1 now!"
"Preist 1 your turn"
"Omg Wiz Over Aggro"
"Ranger WS Pate!"

 

All credit to the movie industry that they are trying to build bridges with the games industry. A bit risky taking on Everquest as a film. Afterall we already have the mighty Lord Of The rings, which people will bound to use as a reference. Let's hope it doesn't end up like Dungeons & Dragons.

 

Oh, god, please no.... I actually felt my IQ slip a few notches from watching it, and I didn't even finish it.

 

I know exactly what you mean. Watch the film in it's entirety and you WILL know what goes through a Zombies mind.

 

Well, to me a bullet usually goes through a zombie's mind! But I guess I game too much.

 

D&D1 the film should be erased from the records as ever having existed.

Dungeons & Dragons 2 was a hilarious film.

I was screaming at the Tellybox

"no no you idiots don't let the cleric tank the dragon" he then got eaten or frozen cant remember.

 

It's difficult to be subjective sometimes with fantasy films after having played so many RPGs. I remember seeing Eragon and thinking to myself, there's no way that kid could have levelled up that fast to be able to take on an end of movie Boss. Hacks TBH.

 

lol rofl lol...

DnD2 was hilariously meh. I liked it focused more around the group accompishing things. Cleric tank teh dragon - that was lol.

But tbh most vids turned movie have been meh. Worth a watch, but not like OMG OMG OMG r0xx0r. I thought that the first Resident Evil was good, and if they ever make a Half-Life movie, count me in =).
