Monopoly

[Bishop2]

So where's the Uno or Scrabble movies?

I think games like these would be great as a comedy-style approach. Portray them as an amazing underground crime world like The Fast & The Furious.

"The tiles are light. The board is slick. When you Scrabble, if you ain't OUTTA control, you ain't IN control."

Everyone who's bashing this just shut up. This is a cool fresh idea in a sea of sequels and derivitave garbage...



Sorry but it has to be said.

I'm sure glad they're taking a CHANCE...

thank you... thank you... I try.

 

[The Chairman]

I suppose Stratego: The Motion Picture never quite got off the ground.

I have to agree. At least it's not a sequil and something orginal in a sea of rehased ideas.

I think you guys are getting a little too goofy about it. Coming up with random board games you know damn well couldn't make movies. Monopoly has always been based in the corporate world, only somewhat exaggerated. It's like people that talk about when movies like Tomb Raider and the upcoming Warcraft..."what's next, Pong the movie?"

Who would play paddle 1?

Passing around balls. That's right.

 

[Artos]

I am honestly interested in where this project goes, however you have to admit that pretty much everyone's first reaction was WTF?

its nice that they at least have talent on the project... thats never a bad thing

This is true. I mean it's Ridley Scott, not Uwe Boll. It's going to be very interesting, I'm looking forward to more development.

[SapphirePrima]

Is this gonna be a comedy? Cause I can see this working better as a comedy. If it's gonna be a drama movie then it should be about John Rockerfeller IMO .

 

[OptimusCannabis]

Here's an idea. Make a movie called 'The Nothing Movie.' The entire movie is nothing but 2 hours of a blank screen. Spielberg can produce it and Tarantino direct.

How's that for originality? I think it has Oscar potential.

Why Lara Flynn Boyle?

 

[xwolverine2]

LMFAO!!!!

too serious!!
t: t: t:

 

[terry78]

With Ridley Scott directing it just may very well be that serious. Like I said, Wall Street.

 

[The Shredder]

Heh.

I basically expect a Scott-directed Monopoly film to be more along the lines of "Matchstick Men" which was often comedic, than something more akin to that of Wall Street. But we'll see.

 

[lollycop]

first they make cartoons into real live action movies now board games?WTF?

This is going WAAAAYYY to far...

 

[xwolverine2]

if they go the serious route.. i think theres an 80% chance it will suck

 

[OptimusCannabis]

I have to agree. At least it's not a sequil and something orginal in a sea of rehased ideas.

Hmmmm, here's an idea...

After the first Monopoly movie they make two more. One is a sequel set in the distant future and is titled Monopoly: 2150. The third would be a prequel titled Monopoly: The Begining.

 

[Tissues]

Or, Monopoly Junior!

 

[Mr. Socko]

With Ridley Scott directing it just may very well be that serious. Like I said, Wall Street.

I liked your idea.

 

[terry78]

Point blank, if they can turn the Pirates ride into the franchise it is now, surely he can do the same with Monopoly.

 

[xwolverine2]

but still... why serious?...

the Clue game was about murder... and it was a comedy! lol

somehow i think ridley might go the serious route... as are all of his other movies ... but for now im just glad they have talent on there
