So apparently there is a movie coming out based on a popular video game. Currently, I have no opinion on how I feel about this yet. (Positive or Negative) ? The studio making the movie showed a snapshot of a character with a Great sword (field manager). Sure it looks authentic, but I fear the graphics beinf disappointing because movies based on video games and anime have a history if not doing well. Foe those who are aware of the Monster Hunter franchise, what are your opinions? ?
And for those who are unaware, its in the 3rd person roleplay action genre. Its basically you (&3 people possibly) hunting monsters . Pretty fun
I love the game, played it since MHF2. Couple of pictures I've seen released from the set of the movie look kinda generic though. Trying to keep my expectations low so I don't get disappointed
My expectations are somewhat low because making movies with living things that look real enough to please an audience is tough.
Everyone has a different play style, sooooo all that really matters is you have fun with what you play.
The game was great; the plot, not so much. My expectations are low, but it’ll probably still be a fun movie to watch.
They MIGHT be able to make it a good action flick, borrowing from the various hero movies as a group of hunters are assigned to each other for a couple quests and learning how to cooperate with each other. It would likely need to be at least 2 hours to be decent and have enough time for both action and story. The real question is what monsters they'll start with. Personally, I expect them to mention weaker monsters first (Jaggi, Ludroth and the like), group them for a Rathalos, encounter an invading boss monster then deal with it. That said, my expectations aren't exactly high either but I know their potential to get it done right is a bit higher. They should take a page from Jurrasic Park and just use a rig for most effects. On the other hand, full Computer Generated Images would better lend itself to the total fantasy and reduce some of the other problems.
