So I broke it down into the game's three acts with appropriate expansion of character arcs, empasizing certain subplots, etc. The main plot of the second game could be done in a single film, but it'd ignore the actual meat and depth of the game that is too interesting to discard. The structure of the trilogy there will be a bit more challenging to organize. I guess it could work as long as each film has a beginning, middle and end with a coherent flow. So how far do those 27k+ cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YM! Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Also @cookie Farmiga plays Mata, the no nonsense llama hearder, and the role similar to that of Pacha in the original movie in helping Kuzco back to castle.

The first film is the first act of the game, with a sideplot of the game substantially expanded into the main thrust of the first film and tied in a bit better with the overarching plot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the risk of the obvious connotations of this phrase....size doesn’t matter. It’s how you use it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta claim it in the franchise rights thread first though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 If anyone was curious to how AR would have gone... Mild Insight into the childhoods of Tarek, Ezen, and Naryani, and the gang that Aera tags along with saves the day. They go into hiding after the infinite blitz, and the film ends with her meeting a young Kozar. The fourth Spark film would reintroduce them and have them fight alongside our allies. In a way, it’s nice to not have this overkill of characters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
