    Most games that turn into movies are terrible. Final Fantasy the Spirits Within is perfect proof of that.
    But, then again most movies turned into games are even worse. ET anyone, it was so bad Atari put them all in a landfill.

    I want to see the world come alive. Bad or good, just need to imagine how the world would look and feel. Final Fantasy did with Advent Children and Kingsglaive and it was good treat for the fans. Eso would look amazing in movie form.

    You don't want to see actors in cat costumes and glued on whiskers? Like a certain Broadway production?

    The cynic in me suggests that they would decide to make a $100 million movie, fund it for $50 million, and release the movie incrementally over the next few years by adding to it and rewriting parts of it quarterly. :smiley:

    I don't OBJECT to the idea of an Elder Scrolls movie, but as many of you have already said - I would have concerns about it being good. In addition to the usual moviemaker track record for making bad movies out of video games, half the fun in Elder Scrolls is the ability to wander around exploring - something you can't really do in a movie.

    And right before the climax of the plot they'd end it, unless you paid for a movie subscription or access to the locked movie content

    I though the WoW film was good.

    The issue with the WoW movie was the sheer amount of character and lore they tried to cram into a movie. It lost so many people. But I really enjoyed it.

    I vote for a ESO movie with Forum users and the developers playing the characters.

    Wrobel will play Molag Bal

    @ZOS_GinaBruno will play Lyris Titanborn

    @ZOS_RichLambert will play Mannimarco

    @ZOS_BrianWheeler will play The Prophet

    @ZOS_MattFiror will play Varen Aquilarios
    Conan, what is good in life?

    If they set the Story in the TES world, then yes.

    If they try to play the game as the plot of the movie, then no. Besides, no one wants to see a Grind Montage.....

    lol- i can see the longline : "the story of an elves journey thru an arena of death called the maelstrom arena, which he runs over and over and over again in order to acquire the mythic sharpened two handed sword of maelstrom! leaves the door open for 1000 sequels )

    Yes please their Morrowind cinematic was so good. Give me a movie. It HAS to be live action though. I also want an epic fantasy book series a la LoTR based on Elder Scrolls lore.

    Umm...
    The Infernal City & Lord of Souls by Greg Keyes; Allthough from memory at least a third of it feels like what inspired ESO provisionning, ROFL. Clouded Dreggs in Bouillabaisse anyone?

    If based off elder scrolls lore, then sure.

    If based of actual story lines from the games, then no. You can't fit 30-50 hours if content into a 1.5 hour movie.

    Though I would love to see a xp grinding montage.

    I quite liked Spirits Within, personally. Advent Children was ok. Could have been much better. Big part of it's problem was that it was catering entirely to fans of FFVII. Anyone who hadn't played that before would be completely lost and wouldn't enjoy it at all.

    Movies based on video games are often maligned but I think the ESO movie will be the best of the genre. Also this movie will break new ground by discarding the traditional frame-rate of Hollywood movies (24 frames per second) and instead having a variable frame rate that will start at 30FPS and then dip down to 8FPS during intense action scenes for increased realism.

    Coming to theaters SOON (No ETA)

    A live tv series would be better, where you can tell stories from each race and cultural point of view.

    Which would take multiple seasons.
