gow Wyck Godfrey talks about Gears of War Movie

Time and time again I’ve harped on the fact that gamers are still waiting for a mesmerizing adaptation of a film spawning from a video game.  Wyck Godfrey, producer of the Gears of War film, took time out of his schedule to talk about his ideas.

While many still remain pessimistic that the film will butcher the video game, it is a bit comforting to see how the film will unfold.  For the video interview, please read on.

I think we want to focus on a world that’s running well, *snaps fingers* and then it’s emergence day.

In the past, we’ve seen films try to recreate  video game plot lines that turn out to be quite terrible.  Utilizing the film to shed more light on the events leading up to the events of the first game will be interesting.

Not to mention, capturing the people’s reactions during the ensuing 48 hours will be quite a challenge.  If done correctly, it could potentially catapult Gears of War into new heights and design a successful film to video game structure.

Right now, little is known, but Len Wisemen, director of the Underworld films, is suppose to direct.  Here’s hoping the movie turns out to be a smash hit.

    audio is broken

  2. Works for me Ferahtsu. I’ve stopped getting excited about games-to-film adaptations since the reign of Uwe Boll.

    Len Wisemen, director of the Underworld film? Aaah shit! I predict moving pictures well worthy of the Razzie Award.
    @ Simon Jones: Yeah, being a German I really feel constrained to say sorry for letting Uwe Boll out of the looney bin that he pretty sure has been held in, been given only water and bread and no talent.

    Hmmm… Ferahtsu, the video works for me, but I too lack audio.

    Is this going to be a CGI film? or are they just going to have ridiculous props?
