So you don’t have taxis driving on sidewalks or motorcycles speeding down the wrong side of split avenues and you STILL have about the same road deaths and injuries per pop as Taiwan?
The irony is, something like this probably would have been a lot less expensive to make, while also appealing more to fans. It’s funny how so many people in the movie business are not very good at, you know, the movie business.
It’s just your typical meme-movie that nobody really asked for, they gather a bunch of classic game tropes and shove it into a movie and then max out on publicity like “Haha look, so funny and recognizable Minecraft stuff. Are we right, fellow kids? We totally get you!”.
They probably could’ve gotten away with it if they just used 3D characters like the Mario movie too and it would’ve worked fine for younger audiences. It probably still will work fine for younger audiences but it feels so terribly forced.
I think they’ll get away with it because they’re deliberately marketing it the way so many similar movies are managed: formulaically for kids, but with some actors and writing meant to give ‘the adults’ something to watch too. Unfortunately, ‘the adults’ are almost always assumed to have only a passing familiarity with the subject material, and I have a feeling they’re going to write the ‘for the adults in the room’ jokes with that assumption in mind.
It feels like it’s being written on an outdated manual, ignoring the fact that there’s a very sizable core audience of 20 and 30-somethings they could tap into. My guess is that everything they tried only tested well with children in focus groups, since apparently they were dead-set on a live-action format from the very beginning. I hate to be so cynical, but it’s possible they decided to go all-in on kids because they can hit the appeal without worrying as much on the production standards.

The live-action fairy has these Hollywood execs in a trance.
To this day I don’t understand what made Disney swap all their lovable animated characters for photorealistic-lion.fbx and make a Lion King “”“live-action”“”
This isn’t going to be fixed. It would take too much work to actually fix it. Maybe they have enough time before April 4, but that is extensive reshooting. They’d pretty much have to trash all of the video and keep just the audio probably.
From the trailers it even looks like the story is gonna be super linear and boring. At that point they’d need to rewrite the whole thing. Even the most ambitious studio is gonna have a hard time committing to that.
I‘m somewhat sure the person who made the trailer will make a version of the film out of pure spite that works exactly like this and its going to be the best thing ever, maybe even shaking the movie industry.
Seems like a bit of a reach in wishful thinking lol
Nobody is going to spend that time on a ‘fixed’ version of the movie, let alone have access to everything needed to even do this. It’s more likely that someone will make a fan-made movie with audio from the original.
ContractVille is a pretty similar game except it’s also open world and coop. It has its fair share of performance issues and bugs though, especially when you’re playing coop as a non host.
It’s worth noting that the link he provided is a decent overview, but it’s also really outdated as far as the decompilation community goes. If you’re at all interested in getting involved, and not just mildly curious about the high level stuff, most people start with one of two discords. One for decomp.me and the is the N64 decompilation discord.
The turn-based with real-time elements reminds me of Sea of Stars and Shadow Hearts, which are both excellent titles in my mind for this game to associate itself with. Looks really flashy too with the menu, camera movement, and slowdown effects (hopefully that wouldn’t get old with too much repetition).
