I like movies but I haven’t been excited about a new movie in a really long time.

Nowadays, it seems the best stories are coming from video games. And I don’t say this lightly.

Movie theatres are way too reliant on the same tired franchises. And they keep churning them out like a factory.

Now over-reliance on franchises can be a problem in the video game world too. But you also get moments like Elden Ring, Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical, and Stray.

You don’t get those kind of moments in cinema anymore.

I’m also noticing that more movies and TV shows are a spin-off of video games. Twisted Metal and Gran Turismo are cases in point. M

But these aren’t even video games I would want movie adaptations for. I think they make for a pretty poor movie premise.

Here’s a better movie adaptation for a video name: Hotline Miami. A Hotline Miami movie would be incredible. If someone makes such a movie, I’m buying a ticket.

Or how about a Metal Gear Solid movie?
