roadrunnertwiceThere was a link in one of my Discords to a list of supposedly in-development video game movies, nearly all of which seem like terrible ideas. (Call of Duty?! Come on!!! 😩)
Mega Man was on there, of all the fuckin things. Here’s what I had to say about that.
Mega Man has potential but only if you turn the wheels 90° and go hard off-road, which seems unlikely
Imo the mega man legends series had dense enough lore and flexible enough structure that you could do something really interesting with it!! But that one wasn’t popular enough to get the crowds showing up 🤷🏽
And anyway if you’re gonna go that far off the critical path the REAL move is to do an animated Tron Bonne heist flick.
Her Servbots were the original minions and everyone loves those guys, and “wacky heist” has plenty of quality movie-format prior art to draw on, unlike other kinds of game adapts
Anyway probably time for yours truly to finally replay the MML games
