Shuz Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 That sounds great Yohein, to see that scene in full cinematic splendour would be so beautiful *tear*. also need to see The Corpse Bride soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpicus Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Yeah, I really want to see that film too. Looks uber good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glastea Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Likewise with the Corpse Bride. However, Grim Fandango as a film could be a good or bad thing. For instance, they could make a new story line that bodges it up completely, or the medium they use could bodge it up. If I had to say a medium, it would have to be the animation they use in the game, with the same voice characterizations, the full fandango (no pun intended), and even then, it might not be as good. Make it faithful to the game, with the same animation and voices, then yes. But personally, no offense Scorpicus, I think that plasticine is a bad idea. Also, how would you get all the bones to be separate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpicus Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 I'm still favouring the real people way to go, but I think plasticine over computer animation. Why? I don't really know, I think if you did it using 3D animation it would seem too much like the game. Also I don't think 2D animation would be too good neither, since its been pretty much replaced by 3D animation- when was the last succesful 2D film? Back in the 90s. Audiences expect more from the animation nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought about that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpicus Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 There are two directions you could take a GF film: You could play up the humour and aim it more at familys, or you could play up the drama and aim it at adults. I guess if you were going for oscars you might go for the adult audiences, but then again you don't want to cut off the kids who play the game... I guess the real beauty is finding the middle way inbetween *sudden relisation of going in a circle in thoughts* Wohoo! Pointless post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohein Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Exactly. Just like the game does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Virago Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 I think it would be a pretty good idea, as long as it has a good story and you forget it's based on a videogame while your seeing it (all vg based movies that avoided this failed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
