4815162342 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 The idea of distilling a multi-season story into a 2-2.5 hour piece just kinda irks me. Instead of doing that, it's far easier to just develop your own original story that while it may have some similar premises or elements, is still completely your own creation.

CJohn Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) At one point, when I was thinking of doing inFamous, I had Andrew Stanton as director.I thought of Andrew Stanton, but I ended with D.J. Caruso because I liked Disturbia and I Am Number Four. But I may change this decision since I am planning inFamous for Year 8...

If I fail at doing that, then I will be laughed of the face of the forums.Also, the first film would be an adaptation of the first season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I mean making your own original story that has nothing to do with the show.If you want to make a film about a terrorist sleeper agent, by all means make it. But don't have anything to do with Homeland at all, make it entirely your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Then why would you call it Homeland?That's the point. You don't call it Homeland, because it isn't Homeland. I am telling you to avoid Homeland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunch Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I claim the rights to E.V.E. (which I think I had anyway from the previous CAYOM). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I'm giving up rights to Homeland, snagging rights for Sonic the Hedgehog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Don't tie in Sonic with the NCU. He's Sega through and through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Don't tie in Sonic with the NCU. He's Sega through and through. He appeared in Smash Bros. Brawl, so I don't see why not.Also being included:MetroidKirbyEarthboundStar FoxFire EmblemKid IcarusPikminIt's up to Impact if he wants to do Mario or Zelda. That will decide the fate of the NCU.

Blankments Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Let me put it this way: If you were making a MGS movie, you wouldn't tie it into Smash Bros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Just saying: Sonic is a guest fighter, and if you're doing Smash Bros. movies, the first one should "based" off the original Smash Bros. Wait for the third movie to get into Brawl characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Ugh, if an admin can delete those...Anyway, I wouldn't say it's just your creation if I was you. This game thrives on group calaboration, and usually the BP winners get advice from other players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Yep, cOllaboration is key in this game. In fact, Spark wouldn't have been as good as it was had I not sent a first draft to riczhang and for feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank actually just read my draft for Last Ditch Effort and gave me some really good advice. Oh, and there's a press release coming about the movie soon. Probably tonight.

Impact Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Well I had trouble in the past with it...I also would ask for help on my films in the old CAYOM but people wouldn't help me...(Just users like Ry and others they would help...)

Impact Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I am doing Mario and Zelda.Also-Fox is iffy, it works better animated.(I did do a Star Fox trilogy in the old CAYOM)And Pokemon would work better then Pikimin but 48 has the rights.Hunch has the rights to Metroid.
