Resident Evil, as a game, was Survival Horror when it came out, and it was extremely successful.

In my opinion though, the problem that the Resident Evil movie series had stems from the movie niche it was trying to fill in relation to creating sequels for said movie title. (Ironically enough, it just finally hit the bottom of the mountain that it stood on top of with the release of the final movie.) Well, in that same vein of genres, there's also the Resident Evil movie series, but let's be realistic after the first one (which was really well done as a "spin-off" of the original games), it just went downhill from there when it tried to be more of a Matrix knockoff than a series of survival horror films, and then incorporated the characters from the original series in a horrible fashion instead of keeping with original characters. especially a movie incorprating the title of a game, that did not suck. Or I could just be talking out of my Wayfinder and have no idea what I'm talking about.ĭrahliana Moonrunner wrote: There has yet to be a game based movie. Absolom, meanwhile, would be much more difficult to portray, as there are much fewer places that mix up as many elements, without resorting to filming exclusively indoor scenes or narrow/slum scenes in environments you can easily control. As such, with Varisia's and Cheliax's big cities having a spanish/italian vibe to them, it would be easier to find real locations period accurate enough that, with a bit of camera work and editing it can be made to feel like part of Golarion. The premise for the city, as understood by a DM whose players really only visit it to shop for magic items, is that it is a great clash of culture, which is an awesome concept! However, to conserve on costs or to add a feeling of depth and realism, I have found that real environments and sets usually do a better job (hardily a film buff, mind ye). save the small screen for Game of Thrones people!Īs for why I tossed in that Absolom would be CGI. Showcase the whole farmboy to demigod thing D&D/PF does best.Īh, I seemed to have derailed a thread again (Puts on a construction Workers hat, an train engineer's overalls, and holds a directors scene-take-clip-thingy) Alright people, back on topic, we're making movies here. Same characters, seasonal story arcs, overall metaplot.
#Pathfinder movie tv#
I've said it before, but I'd love to see a multi-season big budget TV series taking a campaign from gritty goblins in the sewers adventures all the way up to high-level extra-planar craziness. I think that a TV series would be better for Pathfinder in general, but that's not this forum, just my 2 coppers.Īgreed with that last bit. If they do end up doing the pulp pathfinder feel as mentioned by Pan above, I think that Eando Kline's adventures would work the best as many of his adventures had definate beginnings, middles, and ends while he went for a bigger goal.
Looking back at the comics line, condensing those into a movie can work well too, although I feel like alot would end up being cut or rushed through. Movies based on their apperances in the AP stories. The novels line would be a good series to make movies, especialy Varian and Radovan. Either way, I'd limit the number to 6 or so as to not crowd up the screen or story with names and subplots. Sadly, not many have this beginning element.Īs a followup question, where in Golarion would be the best place(s) for the film to be based on? What nation or territory is interesting enough to stand out but familiar enough to relate to larger audiences? Personaly I'd say Cheliax or Varisia, as Absolom would involve too much CGI cityscape (or outrageous sets).Īlso which Iconics? The usual lineup for the comics could work well, but maybe the movies will follow an entirely different lineup of Iconics. But if they do, they should make the first movie based off an adventure path whose beginning can stand alone without a sequel and then create the rest of the movies depending on how well it does. My knowledge of actors is dismal at best, and I'd be hesitent to have it follow an adventure path (movie should have "Spoilers" written on the poster if they do). Sadly I agree with Moonrunner, but like the dream of flight, you cannot succeed without a few crashes.
