Then I re-watched it in English and for whatever reason it was like it morphed into the worst movie ever.

DILLY-DALLY SHILLY-SHALLY.

Yeah that catch-phrase can go die in a fire, I don't mind watching that movie in English though.

You lost me reezy.

Like I said in an earlier post. A CGI movie like the Final Fantasy ones would have been a lot more fitting

idk, those were pretty bad too imo. Souls Within had a leg up in that it was really the most impressive CG movie at the time, but the actual content of the movie wasn't that great.

I saw Advent Children first in Japanese with English subtitles, and didn't think it was too horrible. Then I re-watched it in English and for whatever reason it was like it morphed into the worst movie ever.

I only watched the Spirits Within to be honest but didnt mean that the quality should be the same. I meant that the CGI style would be more fitting to the ME universe than the anime style.

Gotcha, and on that we agree. the re-take Earth CG trailer that had Shep and Ash fighting the reapers was beautifully rendered, and I'd watch a movie made in that style.

Exactly
If the would release a movie in the style of the "Take Earth back" trailer I would buy it right away.
*sigh* Well maybe in the future

You do know that trialer, and all the high quality CGI trialers, cost hundreds of thousands of dollars for that short ammount of time right?

Maybe when technology advances to the point where the cost become managable, but right now a full length movie would cost tens, or possibly hundreds of millions.

That voice-over is probably the most rediculous sounding thing I've ever heard. I thought it was a joke at first.

EDIT: . . .and why anime? Are there no other forms of animation nowdays?

Well I wasn't expecting high cinema from something revolving around Roll Fizzlebeef.

Yeah.  My interest disappeared as soon as I heard who the main character would be.

Would you care to name one movie based on a video game that met with critical success? Only a few have been financially successful and many have been financially disastrous.

Most of the video game movies are financial successes in theaters like Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Prince of Persia, Silent Hill, Street Fighter, and Mortal Kombat while the rest break even other then the Uwe Boll movies.  You act as if comic book movies are having an easy time even when they're in the same boat as video game movies.  Most of the successful comic book movies belong to Marvel while the other break even or lose a lot of money.  You should do the proper research before someone makes you look like a stupid jackass.

How about you actually read the post you quoted and answer the question? I hope you realize that the fact that you felt the need to resort to insults over something as trivial as this does not exaclty reflect well on you.

You asked a question and I answered it while you shouldn't play the victim based on you were being a jackass, which isn't insulting at all.  

Apparently you still haven't found the time to read that post. You did indeeed answer a question but it wasn't the one I asked. Again, why the insults? Why are you taking it personally that I am saying that video game movies aren't very good?

True. I believe the last attempt to do a full length "realistic" CGI movie was the Final Fantasy movie that came out several years ago. It looked great but took forever to make and ended up losing money. Since then most full length CGI movies (Pixar, many Japanese films, etc.) have gone with less "realistic" artwork that is cheaper and less time consuming to produce.

Yet you forget that Capcom and Square Enix built their visual studios from the ground up while Namco got Bandai's studios from the merger.  The closest thing to a realistic CGI movie is Avatar and its an American, which is leaps and bounds ahead of everyone.

No. I asked you to name a single video game movie that was critically successful. In other words, I would like you to name a movie that was well received by critics and reviewers. I am quite certain that you will not be able to. The reason for this is that an inherently interactive work like a video game does not translate well into a non-interactive medium such as film.

Simply looking at the financial results of a film does not tell the whole story. There have been many awful films that have been very profitable (the original "Mortal Kombat" movie you mentioned comes to mind) and there have been many great films that have not made money (Citizen Kane lost money at the box office).

Except that it's not a full length CGI movie which kind of precludes it from being in the discussion.

Mass Effect is changing its target audience, and I'm not in it. What started out as a thoughtful sci-fi setting with music designed to carry the Blade Runner vibe and dialogue that Picard could've spoken now became a goddamn Power Rangers episode full of space ninjas, space marines, anime and cringeworthy oneliners.

Enjoy selling to the 12-18 year old male demographic, Bioware. You are doubtlessly shifting your focus to this easily exploitable market because of your boundless artistic integrity.

Now after viewing this sad farce, may I ask why in the world ME3 "prequel" has to be an anime? I just never thought ME needed to have a anime, especially over backstory from a relatively uninteresting character IMO.

Ah well, I'll just stick with good anime. You know, the ones with good drawings/animation and writing?

Yet you orginally stated critictally successful based on finacial revenue while you changed your mind based on the facts.  I really cold careless what critics say with any movie whether its a video game or comic book movie based on how they both get equal hate and praise from certain movie critics.

The purpose of success in the box office is by making more money then your overall bill, which Mortal Kombat did.

You would be surprised on how much is digital in Avatar based on how realistic the CGI is in it.

This thread just triggered RE films flashbacks.

I'm pretty sure I can get some money for pain and suffering.

Hey im 18 and i still love mass effect but the anime is not going to be for me. and i am still enraged by the endings.

[What a Succulent Ass]

Yo, you know you have achieved mediocrity when your film should be called Bad Cosplay: The Movie.

[Xellith]

I just imagined playing all 3 mass effect games... but instead of Mark Meers voice.. we have the guy who does the voiceover for the anime... /cringe

I think you are exaggerating a bit here.
Yes, CGI movies are more expensive to make. Especially when you compare them to low quality anime like this Mass Effect movie that looks like a 80's children cartoon.
The take back earth trailer is of extremely good quality. But you can make a CGI movie that is almost as good without spending "hundreds of millions".



But take these movies for example:


Starship Troopers Invasion trailer. The quality and animation quality is good enough.

And the best example:

The Lord Inquisitor Trailer

Made by ONE person. In his private free time. If he can do this, im sure Bioware can make a 90min CGI Mass Effect movie happen as well.

It's not even nearly as bad as the DA anime... CGI.... thing.

The true question is, how do they both compare to the Dragonlance animated movie?

That's really the nadir of the animated talent pool as far as I'm concerned.
