Today’s zoom call about that video game feature adaptation went well. I’ve got 2-3 weeks to come up with a killer take that will blow their socks off. I could probably do it in 1, but I don’t want to seem overly eager. There’s a lot of world and a lot of story to cover in a single movie, but you can do it with: 1) a concise focus and 2) a character-driven narrative with heart and humor that pays tribute to the source material. I know, I know. Respect the source material? How positively antiquated of you, Joe – especially in an era where adaptations are often so far removed from the I.P. that you’d swear the writers never even watched/read/played the original. But let’s see how it goes.
The future looks increasingly less promising as time wears on…
I’m going to need a top up before I tackle the next draft…
In the event you’re going in for surgery shortly…
And today’s Yes/No…
