A cult game from a leader of gamergate is going to get a moving picture adaptation (hopefully not shit as usual)

Yeah, right? I can't really think of a single video game that turned into a good movie/TV series. The ones that did trace back to a book or something. Yet they screw those up now too, e.g. The Witcher.
I do think that Detective Pikachu and Sonic The Hedgehog bucked the trend of generally disliked video game movies, which isn't to say that they're good, just that quite a few fans of those franchises seem to like them and they saw some success.
That seemed to be a bit of a "catching
lightninga spark in a bottle" event though. The former movie benefited from memes about Danny DeVito, the latter from Sonic's initially ugly face and Jim Carrey. Both also had very low expectations and are aimed at a young audience.Yeah, had zero expectations for sonic but ended up enjoying it after a referral.
