Another crappy video game adaptation movie confirmed.
Current gaming platforms - Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, New 3DS, PC
I would love this to be THE VG adaptation that proves VG adaptations can be good movies. But I'm always skeptical about these things. They are giving it a good chance at success by having ND people heavily involved in the writing.
I don't have a problem with a direct adaptation of the TLOU story. After all, only about 4.5 million people have actually played this game. So there are millions of potential movie goers who will only have a passing knowledge of the story, at best.
Just whatever you do, in the marketing of the movie don't say it's based on a video game, loads of people will not go just because of that fact.

Bet with Adamblaziken:
I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

This! They can rename it for all I care. People associate movies based on video games as always being bad. Keep that info as hidden as possible.

TLFU I think would make a really good movie as the story already is excellent. I just recently bought it and its as amazing.

I think it depends on the rating. I hope the team behind TLoU movie doesn't make the film to attract teens. I'd rather them instead opting to focus more on the elements that made the games atmosphere seem so brutally realistic yet deep within the emotional realm as well. Depends on the actors as well. This is the type of story that will require really good acting, anything less and the movie will feel lost and awkward. I hope they get a bunch of no-name actors that can play the part good like some other movies have done like District 9 or Inglorious Basterds. This movie so far has a great team behind this project.
Maybe this is why Amy Hennig left...
