How do you go about making a Dark Souls movie?

You don't.

You make a story about one of the many stories you pass over as you kill lots of undead.

You don't.
Edge of Tomorrow was kinda that

Without going for an Edge of Tomorrow style time-loop, it would basically be Vampire Hunter D

Silent, short film about a knight wandering a castle, after fighting one of the demons of izalith he lights a bonfire at the end but gets killed by another knight who helped you kill the demon but he became hollow.

It's just impossible: gameplay and story are fused up to a point that they can't be set apart.
It's like making a film out of "Le città invisibili" or "Ship of Theseus" (that I'll confess that I haven't read): basically, they start by BEING BOOKS, aware of being books. Only then they go on telling their stories.
The same applies to Dark Souls.


Anyone trying will just end up with endless minutes of silence in a gray prison, ending with a hollowed man asking to another:
>«Do you remember anything?»
Fifteen more minutes of silence intercut with beautiful shots of snowy mountains.
>«A name, maybe»
Then a sequence that follows an ant down, from the top of a tree branch to the depths of the cell.
>«Your own?»
A five minutes single shot of a hollow slamming its head into the wall.
>«No. I don't think so.»

Something like Black Angel. A full-length version is under production. mite be cool
