if i understand i think that ubisoft meant that they will always make more money with games than with movies. even if the movie underperforms it will be good enough for marketing their games to the general public.

This would explain why game company's dont realese good movies. because they would have to change the story to fit into a good movie narrative. But to them its more important that its a good 2 hour commercial for games. i guess its the same with Warcraft.
 
Not to go too off-topic, but a The Witcher movie would be fantastic! Or rather instead of a movie, why not an HBO series? They have to do something in two years when GoT ends. The Witcher universe is practically already on an HBO level och characterisation and plots.

I just saw that on Facebook, and holy crap did it give me some serious anxiety.

I really hope this one is good.
 
Can't believe they actually did that, that is insane.
 
Meh, pick your game up Fassy, Tom Cruise would have done that himself. :oldrazz: :woot:
 
I think this will be good, looks like a decent video-game adaptation. Especially with Fassbender and Cotillard as the main cast.
 
It's disgraceful that the Academy doesn't have an award for stunt teams. The stunt actors take the majority of the risk, they die, some get severely injured, they get maimed, bruised, battered etc. The planning and execution of a stunt takes skill and know-how and precision. And in return the stunt crews get hardly no recognition for their important hard work and dedication.

Agreed
 
It is really ridiculous that they dont acknowledge stunt teams.

I feel like I go on this rant at least 3x a year now. It's ridiculous. I'd imagine the Academy's reasoning is probably that it's not considered a "creative" field, but that's BS. It takes A LOT of creativity, talent and ingenuity to coordinate great stunt sequences. They're probably afraid of losing their "prestige" factor if they're caught giving an Oscar to a silly popcorn flick or something like John Wick. Because giving one to Sam Smith for garbage he scribbled down in 20 minutes - or to Judy Dench for 8-minutes of looking queenly - was totally not embarrassing at all.

Case in point. Stunt woman Olivia Jackson injured on the set of Resident Evil : The Final Chapter. Was in a coma for two weeks and eventually had to have her left arm amputated.

If Hollywood can do Oscars so white Hollywood can get these people the respect they deserve too. They put their lives on the line so that the audience can derive some enjoyment and entertainment through the magic of cinema.

Come on Academy, give these men and women some love.
