I never understood why people who were into video games or anime were always so desperate for Hollywood to adapt what they loved into a live-action movie.
Growing up my friends were always like “Wouldn’t it be awesome if they made a Zelda or Metal Gear Solid movie”, and I was always like, fuck no. Who wants to see what some Hollywood hack (who probably thinks it’s stupid) mangles the game you love into?
There was a time back in the late 80s and early 90s where the now conventional wisdom didn't exist, of live action adaptations being universally shit. Most of the consoomers that buy into this shit grew up in that era.
To be fair, even though the live-action stuff was goofy or cheesy at times, it was at least entertaining and sincere, like Masters of the Universe, The Punisher, and Judge Dredd.
Or Dredd, which is actually a good movie.
Just keep Kojima away from the production or you'll end up with a 15 hour documentary spliced with real-life historical footage from Vietnam, a young genetically modified super-soldier's coming of age story, a romantic subplot that takes place entirely over the radio, and nanomachines son.
Don’t forget the otherwise attractive love interest having body deforming scars and injuries while also having a weirdly plane backstory.
Does that happen? I just see paid shills and ideologues who pretend to praise it for political purposes.
Yeah, it used to happen, but now these modern adaptations are almost universally reviled and rejected except for those access media shills.
I think Silent Hill was the best one.
