Dunno... did you watch the Trailer? I think this one looks really good And, with Spielburg interested in producing a Fatal Frame movie, this could be the start of a new trend? Like what X-Men did to comic movies?


But yeah, games don't inherently lead to good movies... The whole spot structure and execution of the story don't lend themselves to movie translations well. Especially with people like Ewe Boll putting out shitpiles like Bloodrayne... But I liked the RE movies. The first one was fun, and I actually thought the second one was kinda good...

Meh...the way I see it is the originlity is completely gone from Hollywood and they are fishing for ideas. Just so happens they are relying on video games and a slew of remakes to tide them over until something else comes along. I don't see it as a very good trend at all myself, and it makes for some shoddy acting and storyline also.

Well, that more a side effect of us being in a profit-driven economy


Also, I hope they can capitalize on this game's use of environment and suspense instead of gore to illicit fear :happysad:
