The fact that they show a Dark Souls poster and proceed to describe an Elden ring movie is very funny. Like the producers don’t know the difference.
glitchdx@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
they’d be proud of the fact that they never played video games, let alone the source material.
look at interviews surrounding halo paramount, “we want to tell our own story in this setting” then proceeds to make garbage that actively disrespects the source.

“We didn’t look at the game. We didn’t talk about the game. We talked about the characters and the world. So I never felt limited by it being a game.”
The quote is amazing.

They need to combine forces so Studio Ghibli makes a Dark Souls/Elden Ring movie, and Fromsoft makes a game about Howl’s Moving Castle or something.

I absolutely hate this, but can’t deny that it’s accurate

Tbh, i’d love a dark souls movie with Jack Black and Nick Cage.
moody@lemmings.world 3 weeks ago
Jack Black as Solaire would work. I can see the jolly cooperation now
Gullible@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
And a shaven Adam Sandler as patches. This would truly be an awful film. I’d see it. Not in theaters, certainly. Not even my own streaming subscription. But eventually I’ll be on someone’s couch and exactly drunk enough to dare them to put it on.

You’re on the money, Cageman is who this movie needs

Nick Cage
Ew.
I’m on board for Jack Black though.
Hubi@feddit.org 3 weeks ago
That actually sounds incredible lmao

Honestly, anything w/ Jack Black is incredible.

That was unfortunately a Jack Black of a different era. This one abandons his lifelong friend to be as hollywood safe as possible for saying meanie-bobeanie things about trump (as a comedian on a stage that is known for political jokes)
Maalus@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Yup. Most that you can fault it for, is the mechanics later in the game, which try to teach you how to play multiplayer, getting too repetetive.
Because of course the game had PvP battling with music stages as bases.
Blackmist@feddit.uk 2 weeks ago
I think the main issue people had was it had lot of RTS sections further in.
They weren’t actually that bad, but the demo gave no clue that the main chunk of gameplay was going to be running around issuing orders rather than the basic heavy metal themed hack-and-slash it pretended to be.
xspurnx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Pretty good soundtrack too.
JokeDeity@lemm.ee 2 weeks ago
Movie is called Dark Souls, plot is Elden Ring. Hollywood on par for the course.
VitoRobles@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
Reminds me of the director Jon Peters who wanted a giant spider in Superman and was shot down. So he got Wild West and put a giant spider in there.
Hollywood does whatever Hollywood wants.

You know, I don’t think I’ve ever heard that song in full. Apparently the dogs are metaphorical

AI will create this movie 20 years from now, I hope you’re happy.

I’m predicting 20 months

Final shot is Jack Black clumsily wading through a poison swamp, “not again!”

The swamp itself farts with every green bubble that boils and pops on the surface.
vestigeofgreen@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
Just a matter of time until this trailer gets made. I remember the Oppenheimer one and now that we’ve got the AI trailers, you don’t even need an actual movie to use as source material this time.
GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
Hell, the mortal kombat fan trailer was fantastic. There are some talented folks out there.
mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Fond memories of some redditor recreating the Terminator 2 trailer with video AI, back when it was impossibly primitive… eighteen months ago. Total gloop. Panning across a guy and a kid on a motorcycle, to the same guy and kid on a motorcycle, to a third copy that’s upside-down.
HalfSalesman@lemm.ee 2 weeks ago
Well, I know people would watch it.
I did not watch the Minecraft movie myself, no desire to experience a full theater of people throwing popcorn around screaming chicken jockey.
Movie industry is fucked.
ace_of_based@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
i enjoyed the Minecraft movie. i wouldn’t say it was great, but i was watching it with my nephews and had fun. it helped that mamoa and black were clearly having fun doing it and had good chemistry together.
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
I watched it this week, no popcorn was thrown. The movie was a solid 5/10, and was only carried by JB being JB.
HalfSalesman@lemm.ee 2 weeks ago
I’m still sore about Jack Black being a coward and throwing Kyle Gass under the bus so IDK how much that would help with my enjoyment.

The amount of stupid dumbasses in the comments who’d be willing to watch this rotten pile of garbage is enough to justify why Trump was elected. You Americans are brain-dead fucks.

Jack Black being in a movie is not a positive. Like any movie with The Rock or Ryan Reynolds. Instantly on the no watch list.
TachyonTele@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
The whole thing is a joke…
OccultIconoclast@reddthat.com 3 weeks ago
I actually really like Ryan Reynolds, if he’s in a movie I’m excited about it. Like Green Lantern.
chrischryse@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Same sure he isn’t the best but he isn’t bad, imo tho he’s more of a comedic person which is why I enjoyed Deadpool more than his other “serious” movies lol

GIve me Jack Black with either of those two and I’ll probably enjoy it. It’ll be a bunch of stupid comedy, and sometimes I’m really into that.
