Guildwars Movie

ok how would everyone feel if there was a guild wars movie.
I want all thoughts, ideas, opinions, suggestions, anything on this topic.

dont be afraid to say anything!!!!!!

I think it would be horrible, like pretty much every single video game based movie ever created.

A 55 monk farming trolls for 2 hours.

hey now, dont you remember how awesome super mario bros was?

come on guys give it a chance and tell me your thoughts, i think its an awesmoe idea, guild wars is one of the few mmos with an actual story

I'll stick to books, games, and maybe comics. Movie... wait a long while at least. I want a Diablo movie before a Guildwars movie.

Although having a movie of some lore-story of GW wouldn't be bad. maybe one of Abaddon fighting the True Gods and being imprisoned, or of Odran and his portals... the gods sounds better. But not of something that is based during the time of GW1 or GW2, or of the books.

I remember how bad it was.

Just because it has a story line doesn't mean it will be amazing. Lots of great games with story lines have been turned into movies, and most have failed.

hmm i smell epic trilogy(the possiblity is there w the lore for sure).......no wait thats only my socks.

so no one thinks this is a good idea, like maybe a promotional thing for guild wars 2 or sometihng along those lines

I dont know i think it would be cool jsut liek super mario bros yes that movie is good doom was good also i think it would be very cool if there was an elder scrolls movie would be cool also but yeah i think it would be kinda cool xD

cool thats what i like positive feed back, i think its an awesome idea, you guys should try to post ideas, and suggestions, and try to write more than like one line

I really hope they never attempt a Guild Wars movie. I love GW just as much as anybody, but there has never been a decent movie based on a video game, ever.(..and if you dare mention Tomb Raider to try and disprove me I will poke you in the eye with a very sharp stick ...) Video games just don't translate well into movies, especially MMOs. There's just far too "big" of a world here to cram into a few hours of film.

That being said, if they do end up releasing such a travesty upon the world, here are some ideas on who to cast.

Jora - Morgan Webb (from G4, am I the only one who thinks she looks like Jora?)
Gwen - Wynona Ryder
General Morghan - Morgan Freeman...obviously
Varesh Ossa - Rosario Dawson
Shiro Tagachi - Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa


I had more..but my head is screaming at me right now so I'll post 'em after a few Tylenol, when I can think again.

Generally, bad ideas tend to attract negative feedback a lot more than positive feedback. Don't take it personal, but it's been proven that video game based movies aren't the best ideas, many times.

Wow thanks for those great ideas you posted!

oh wait......

lol it wouldnt have to be the entire game and all its expansions, like maybe just the main game and perhaps one expansion like factions with the whole asian themed areas or something.

also i didnt thhink the first tomb raider was bad i thought it was pretty good,

Movie based on a bad setting with a company that can't write a good story = bad movie.

shaaaawing! x12

ok then what do u guys suggest along these lines, since my idea is apparently so bad but no one has any ideas or thought to help

its not a bad idea at all, reality is tho video game movies blow....except for double dragon (its all worth the alyssa milano can shot).

Video game movies are always 100% terrible. No exceptions.

Now, a cinematic released in theatres as a trailer . . . that could be good.
