Naw.

Imagine a movie where the shop owner from a city in Skyrim or WoW, suddenly realizes what he is. . .Ralph and Felix are in a world where all the game characters are fully self-aware.

So Waititi is just an actor in this one? Has my hype down a little.

The writer's and director's credits are nothing to write home about.

But it has Ryan, Taika, and Channing.

It's going to be good.

I mean they both involve characters in video games. . .other than that, they are nothing alike.

. . .and this one has a chance to be watchable, unlike Serenity

That’s like saying SyFy “just did this” when they released Pirates of Treasure Island right before Pirates of the Caribbean or Transmorpers before Transformers.

He's either vampire food, werewolf food, or bankrupted by a Kahjiit thief.

I told you in that thread

The most cliche Lifetime movie ever made was more enjoyable than Serenity.

My wife and I have been waiting to watch serenity at home.

I just watched Serenity on a flight to Bahrain. It was very thought provoking. For hours after, I was able to stay awake and think nonstop about different things about the movie, the acting, and the dialogue.

One of my most prevalent thoughts was, “If this flight crashes, I won’t be able to save my wife from wasting a couple of hours on this movie.”

It would be amazing if this movie ended with a player character suddenly coming into the game and killing everyone.

I figured they could cover that quickly by saying the crazy school shootings are because of this.
