      Movies have been doing tie-ins for decades. It costs a lot of money to release a game and they probably had feelers out months before the release.

      Yeah this movie is going to be hot garbage. It’s the classic “oh video game made money so movie will make money” reaction from execs who think that all popular video games are just Minecraft and therefore it’s a film cash cow

    The video game was a delight! I’m hungry for more games from them after my spouse and I played their whole portfolio.

    Curious how a movie adaptation will turn out.
