Its because most directors arent part of the gamers gerneration. Thats why I think comics are starting to get a lot better. comics been around a while and folks grew up with them and know what to expect.
Thats just my theory.
Good Vid. Wish they would hurry up with Episode 3.
Most people will tell you, with a just the slightest sense of overall technical quality in films, that video game to film adaptations suck! Most adaptations of books, cartoons, anime, etc., blow! The reason for that, though, is because Hollywood thinks they can handle this on their own pretty well. As far as they know, they usually do achieve their goal, they make their money, and then go home. They don't care that they just crushed thousand's of fans pride and joy in the fiction, what they've spent countless hours and dollars devoting themselves to. Hollywood always hands these things to the wrong people. The Wachowskis aren't Hollywood, Christoper Nolan is not Hollywood. Hand these things to the right people and it can work, they don't even have to be big names, many prolific screenwriters and directors that have simply never had their names at the top, and everybody has their start somewhere.
F*!#ing Hollywood! (As a side note, I hope to write and direct in the future, hopefully as my main profession.)
