It's the last of us.
It seems like The Last of Us is on a mission to promote the idea that games can have real stories and video game adaptation can be good.
The Last of Us to Empire is the greatest story that has ever been told in video games according to writer Craig Mazin.
I think there is some debate to be had, even if you are promoting your own adaptation of the project, because it is a very good video game story. The Last of Us can break the curse of bad video-game adaptations, according to a new interview with Neil and Mazin.
There was a time when the video game adaptation curse was in place. We had a lot of bad things, like the Resident Evil movies. There were failures like Prince of Persia. Peter Jackson's Halo and Gore Verbinski's BioShock were canceled.
In the last year, we have seen at least one great video game adaptation, or at the very least, an adaptation of the world of the video game, if not the exact storyline. We've got it.
There is a show called Castlevania.
It took a while for people to notice, and by the end of the series, it was one of the best game adaptions in history.
Ryan Reynolds voiced Pikachu in Detective Pikachu, which took Pokemon to live-action, global box office success in a charming package.
The story of the beast.
Henry Cavill is a huge fan of the games and credits his performance as Geralt as being influenced by the games themselves.
After its initial trailer showed a horrifying looking Sonic, the film didn't seem like it would work, but re-animation did it wonders, and it spawned a sequel.
It is arcane.
It was one of the best shows to air on TV that year, animated or video game based.
The blockbuster that audiences loved and became a global smash hit for Sony was a decade in the making.
The Edgerunner is a cyberpunk novel.
The story of Cyberpunk Edgerunners was so good that it actually sparked a resurgence for the video game itself, as it rocketed to the top of sales charts.
I bet that the Super Mario Bros. movie will make a lot of money at the box office when it is released in 2023.
The Last of Us is going to be great. It could be the best live-action video game adaptation to date. It is disingenuous to act like it is breaking a curse that has been broken half a dozen times in the last five years.
