Ubisoft Launches a Movie Studio

[General_Potatoes]

Movies of games don't really work.

eh, im on the fence for this. if it works, it could very well start having good games turn into good movies (sort of like comics) but it could also turn out bad movies...which are fun to laugh at

 

[spielberg11]

Wow. Did he just compliment the Prince of Persia film?

Excuse me while I go on a mini-rant here, but it was ultimately pathetic. The only good bits where with the parkour, because then I could squint and pretend I was watching Assassin's Creed.

...apart from that, if they're as good at making movies as games, then I'm happy about this.

Can I just say that I like this a lot. Hopefully will be successful I am rooting for these guys.

I guess they also are tired that movie studios are destroying their IPs.

And halfway through the movie the cinema will loose internet connection and the movie will stop.

 

[TheGuy(wantstobe)]

Oh this can only end badly

 

[Blazeaga]

Ok...I shall be optimistic and hope this works out well but for the love of god MAKE MOVIE BOB SOMEWHERE HIGH UP!!

eg: A councler or supervisor or something ! he has best of both worlds ^^!

 

[manythings]

Not Movisoft? They missed a trick there.

Looking forward to an Assassins Creed movie property...I need another mindbending, trippy Inceptionesque film in my life and the religious establishment is getting lazy without another movie like the Da Vinci Code to rile them up.

wonder if the movies are going to have DRM?

Sure you have just made my day.

Perhaps the movies will freeze or have you have to scan your ticket into the barcode reader they will have installed into the cupholders so that no one can use it without paying.

Don't you mean, Sir?

 

[DTWolfwood]

well heres hoping they treat the franchises they make movies of with some reverence. Its their game, they should know what is and isn't important from the game that needs to be translated into film right? ...right? <.<

 

[The Sane]

Yay. This is just what we need for 'game films'. I'm glad the people who are going to be making the films will have a much closer relationship with the original game than usual, and hopefully have a lot more respect for the ip's.

Am I the only one hoping for CGI movies out of this rather than live action? The first thing I thought was "Rayman movie? Fuck yeah!" But then I guess most people don't realise there was a time when Rayman was about the Glade of Dreams and not about stupid f-ing Rabbids and shitty minigames. Seriously, the Glade of Dreams would look so freakin' amazing on the big screen. Oh who am I kidding, they'll obviously go for mass appeal and I gave up on Assassin's Creed after brotherhood. We're never going to see an end to that story now that it's been franshised.

If this means that they could make anything like Assassin's Creed Lineage then this could be a great idea.
