Kill 6 billion demons could be agreat show.

Two games should be made into movies -

Interstate 76

Full throttle

Probably dating myself with those suggestions. Another wildcard game that should be made into a movie - MechWarrior - whatever version.

THE DARKNESS 3

Blueballed for 15 years.

Ringworld and its sequels The Ringworld Engineers, Ringworld's Children, and the Ringworld Throne, with some less-dated attitudes. I mean I'm not totally opposed to rishathra as a concept, but just a few tweaks here and there to catch up with modern attitudes.

If money really wasn't an issue, the entire "Known Space" series. A chance for some really good CGI with Pierson's Puppeteers, Kzin, and all the specialised post-human races living on the Ringworld. And Thrint, Slavers, Outsiders, and so on.

Then there's the first-contact "The Mote in God's Eye" and its sequel "The Mote in Murchison's Eye" AKA "The Gripping Hand". Another opportunity for some interesting three-armed CGI aliens.

Oh, and "Footfall" - an alien invasion story. These aliens look somewhat like baby elephants 😲

I'd fund A quality Fantasy MMO rpg so it wouldn't ever have micro transactions and would also scrub all guides about it from the internet in an attempt to bring back community based progression instead of 'why no meta bro?'

Mmmmmmm me likey.

GIVE ME BACK ASHERON'S CALL!!

Patron/vassal pyramid scheme experience gain system that incentivized helping out less experienced players because you got a % of their XP (at no loss to them) and their vassals, etc etc...

Back in the day when you didn't have an online guide for everything. World was HUGE and there was no real fast travel, but there was a crazy portal network. Random portals in the middle of nowhere that would dump you out at other random parts of the map. Portals exiting dungeons randomly take you somewhere else. I had a spiral ring notebook of portal coords and sometimes to get somewhere it was 7-8 hops through a few dungeons... Or hours running across the map trying to not get janked by high level mobs or other PVP players.

That era of MMO will never live again, and it's a damn shame.

Maybe a slightly different take but… I always thought the Queensrÿche album Operation: Mindcrime could have been an interesting movie.

I’d probably try to get that made/fund that as a project.

Xenosaga remake incorporating the plots all the way through Xenogears and a sequel.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Eternal Darkness sequel / remake on modern hardware & VR.

A Freddy Fazbear's Pizza restaurant that turns into an escape room after you eat.

Custom Robo as a Gatcha game. (This one prints money)

Any game with almost realistic graphics that is somehow capable of running at 60fps minimum at 1440p on ultra graphics with a simple Intel Graphics Igpu thanks to the power of optimization, in order to let the world know how garbage modern AAA games are.

I would like to make a movie where I talk to my friends and we hang out and cook and eat and maybe do some fun and nice things in the community, like talking to people we don't know and getting them to join us. I don't really care how the movie turns out though, it just sounds fun to make.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Buy the Starfield IP from Bethesda, and remake it with a different engine. And generally improve upon it a lot. The game had a lot of potential to be great, but Bethesda couldn't deliver unfortunately.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Call of Duty type game. Remove sliding, tac sprint, bunny hopping, EOMM, and microtransactions to bring back a true casual fps game.

Game: Prince of Persia Half Life 3 😂 Dune RTS

the people who made arcane would get all my money and as much time as they need to make more league shows.

Definitely Scavengers Reign season 2. That show is so unique and refreshing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Neuromancer, with out updating it for technology. I want that phone bank scene.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (3 children)

I'd make a My Summer Car movie.
(In case something like this already exists, let me know.)

World of cultivation, I’d fund a donghua for that book so fast

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

A proper movie adaptation of the hunger games books. They currently lack so much depth and detail that makes the parallels to the USA clear. Also actual young actors, people don't realize how young the characters are supposed to be.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I would acquire the rights to Tales From The Afternow by Sean Kennedy(The Fucking Man!)

Make a proper hbo quality(westworld level of production) out of it.

Then pay the author to write something that could be turned into a trilogy based on it, but set a thousand years forward.

And create a video game series using the main charqcters various life extensions set between the original series and the new trililogy, where hes on the same space ship but its like the outerlimits and you never know if the next episode is a continuation or a different era because the ship, much like in red dwarf, is essentially an immortal unchanging character

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

A sequel to Blood Wake or at least a spiritual successor.

Not many people know about this game but I feel it would do somewhat well with online multiplayer. I was in it for the single player story. I’m still intrigued by the world they created.
