Hmm how about Video Games and Movies?

So my last blog was about how movie makers sell the rights to their movies to the video game companies, who usually make some crappy rush job game from it (my own opinion of course). As i was writing that blog i started to think about the opposite in which writers are making movies based off video games. This is an interesting new genre for movies, and they usually fall into the broader genres such as horror, drama, or action based on the type of video game. I feel like this adds another aspect to the film world.

 

Just like my opinion on how video games made from movies such, i feel the same way for movies that are made based off video games. Every one that i have seen has been cheesy and usually low budget. Video games are sweet, and movies are also very sweet, however the mixture of them together just does not seem to come out very well. I do have to say that one of my favorite game series is Halo, and i have constantly been hearing about a movie being made for it. Despite what i said and my opinion i am extremely excited to see Halo the movie when it finally comes out. I hope maybe that film will change my opinion.
