TheGhost47 Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 I watched the new trailer and i just can say: WOW! I want more stuff like that. So why not making a movie to this game? Story would not be the problem. Even actors. So why not?!
Zwier Zak Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 Because it's a bad story and the main character is fundamentally unlikable. Also George proved with the prequels that he should never make any movies at all. Not to mention any Star Wars movies.
TriggerGod Posted June 13, 2010 Posted June 13, 2010 Story would not be the problem. It wouldn't? Even actors. Actors, maybe not. But the characters? Bleh So why not? Because it's a bad story and the main character is fundamentally unlikable. Also George proved with the prequels that he should never make any movies at all. Not to mention any Star Wars movies.
JediSithLordAdas Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 well it could always be a Star wars animated movie like the clone wars series now on, plus i really hope they fixed up the Jump problem as well, which was hard to pull off when tryin to reach some of the Holocrons, be nice if they made a patch available for x360 an other consoles that had that prob of reachin those hard to reach holocrons, an prob could have put in a Super Force Jump to reach them
SW01 Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 well it could always be a Star wars animated movie like the clone wars series now on Please...no... George proved with the prequels that he should never make any movies at all. Not to mention any Star Wars movies. QFT.
LordOfTheFish Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 Welcome to LucasForums TheGhost47! I have to disagree with you though, in my opinion this story isn't good enough to produce a movie out of it.
truJedi Posted June 14, 2010 Posted June 14, 2010 Dont think the story timeline would really fit in, but maybe a movie about what happened after ep VI (return of the jedi ) that could be cool
Shem Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 Because it's a bad story and the main character is fundamentally unlikable. If you're talking about this upcoming game, then you just gave it a premature judgment since nobody knows the story to the this game, but if you're talking about the original game, then you're totally wrong. There's a reason why the first game won awards for its storytelling. Oh, and most people like Starkiller. Get used to it.

I think it would be cool if they did make these games into movies. As long as they add in the different levels from each version.

There's a reason why the first game won awards for its storytelling. Oh, and most people like Starkiller. Get used to it. It won awards because there was no real competition in 2008. And don't get me started on awards. The game also won an award for "disappointment of the year". I get the impression that people like what he does and can do with the force, not who he is. I also noticed on many forums that a lot of people hate him. Unless you can show me the "most people" who like him I'm gonna stick to the fact that he is a wooden, flat and unlikable.
LordOfTheFish Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 but far better then the prequel trilogy:D No, not really. what a comeback lol i totally agree with you schem, i dont get why people are saying it was a bad story and whatever. Like you said, theres a reason why it won awards It isn't a bad story, just not a story worthy of being made into a film.
Astor Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 I didn't think that the story of the first TFU was bad. That said, it wasn't good, either, and was largely forgettable. And using a trailer as a premise for an entire film doesn't seem advisable. The one advantage of a trailer is it that it's short, and can largely ignore complex things such as plot. Extend by an hour and I don't think it would work.
jbc218 Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 actually there is a link... http://www.forceunleashed.net/force-unleashed-2-media/teaser-trailer/ no one understands it...some big rancor mixed with ur mom... 2 lightsabers. its like wtf. i didnt get all the talking either. or that electric move cause that would hert him more than the rancormom
Qui-Gon Glenn Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 What about Marek is so unlikeable? I found him to be a sympathetic character, and the storytelling to be decent enough. The gameplay needed work more than the story, IMO. Just judging from this thread alone, it would seem that more people have a positive opinion than a negative one, ZZ.
Zwier Zak Posted June 19, 2010 Posted June 19, 2010 With all I said about the TFU1 I would like to note that I am quite interested in the second one. Hope it will be good and develop Galen a bit more. Sam Witwer is a good actor and he deserves a second chance.
MAN@ARMS Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 this would make an excellent movie and the story is the best thing about it. The games story won awards for it (not that thats always a good sign) but it was well deserved.
JediAthos Posted June 20, 2010 Posted June 20, 2010 I've got to inject a bit of sense into this...have any of you watched a movie made from a video game? They are 98% horrible films. Horrible scripts, horrible stories, horrible acting(doesn't matter who the actors are), cheezy special effects. There is a laundry list of bad movies made from video games and frankly imho SW has enough problems without one more bad film being added to the franchise. The story may have been good for a game...but inevitably it would translate into a horrible movie.
workshop777 Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Force unleashed should have been made a movie rather then the animated clone wars crap. I think the fans would have rather seen a canon story of what takes place between episodes 3 and 4 (like the formation of the rebellion!!!!) rather then the filler that took place between 2 and 3. JMO.
