Movies Will the American movie industry be able to ruin Battletech?

[Nizam al-Mulk]

That is the only American IP out there that is not adapted they managed to not downgrade or ruin so far. I doubt they will ever get their hands on Honor Harrington without brand control form the creator / creators.

What else is even out there to ruin that was never on the tv / movie screen and is kinda a big brand besides Warhammer?

 

[PurpleStorm]

Absolutely.

They ruined Star Wars.
They ruined Marvel.
They ruined Star Trek.

They'd look at Battletech and barely see a challenge.

Considering development time i am not that sure since just because the trades said a bailout is a possible for the industry there is no way politically for that to happen.

I read this sentence three times and I still have no idea what it says.

Run it through the translation software again......

I'm more surprised that you think Battletech wouldn't be ruined. One of the most impossibly difficult IPs to effectively translate to film. I hope it never happens.

Disney was given a Goose that laid golden eggs (Star Wars)

Then they beat it to death, under cooked it, and threw it in the dumpster.

They could've printed money by useing the right people who knew the IP and the fanbase.. instead the somehow managed to ruin a sure thing.

Ruining Battletech would be a cakewalk.

I think what he attempted to say was that the Movie Industry may looking for a bailout and that Battletech is unlikely to be ruined because it will never get made.

Battletech is so relatively unknown to the general public they could make some woke trash Anime version of it and nobody would probably know that's what they did to it so it would be pretty easy.

Is this a correct translation?

Not exactly, but close enough.

More unknown compared to Warhammer?

I love how everything is “ruined” for all of you. I’ve got news for you assholes: You’re just getting old. They simply don’t make movies about children’s toys and comic books for you. They make them for the younger generation. You’re just out of touch. Believe me. I’ve been old for a while now. It isn’t that everything sucks. It’s that I just don’t get it anymore.

It is downgraded and ruined for the IP holder also.

Is there a reason not to make it for us also? Human lifespans have expanded, it is not the 40s.

What is exactly hard to get about todays movies and tv series?

Because there is more money to be made at the box office from 18 to 40 year olds than old dudes with kids in most cases.

Yeah. They want to fucking make money. And the people writing it are all younger than us. So their sensibilities are just different.

It’s just source material for the people making it. It holds no sentimental value for them. The canon means nothing to them other than that it provides more source material for them to mine for the story.

Also, they know you motherfuckers are going to criticize it no matter what they do.
