Masi Oka and Chernin Entertainment are producing Fox's adaptation of the Capcom video game.

>Video game Mega Man is heading to the big-screen with Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, the filmmakers behind the documentary Catfish, in final negotiations to write and direct.

Chernin Entertainment is producing the project with Heroes actor Masi Oka. Twentieth Century Fox worked for two years to acquire the rights for over two years, finally closing a deal earlier this year.

>The video game, first released in 1987 by Capcom, centers on a robotic lab assistant created by a scientist named Dr. Light. Light is betrayed by a colleague, the disgruntled Dr. Wily, who reprograms a line of robots in order to take over the world. The lab assistant, nicknamed Rock, then upgrades himself into combat mode in order to save mankind.

Joost and Schulman made a splash with their debut, Catfish, the 2010 controversial documentary about online relationships. The filmmaker team catapulted into narratives when they were hired to direct found footage horror movie Paranormal Activity 3 and followed that up with Paranormal Activity 4.

>They last directed Nerve, the 2016’s thriller that starred Emma Roberts and James Franco that also dealt with the online world.

How can Mighty Gunvnolt / Mighty Gunvolt Burst be such amazing games. Whereas Mighty No. 9 is so damn awful?

Even with their simplistic graphics, Mighty Gunvolt is something I could have gladly have funded with the same energy that drummed up Mighty No. 9's success.
Meanwhile Mighty No. 9 had all that funding success, and ended up a complete disaster.

There is something very sad and yet very ironic about how the small spin-off is everything I ever wanted out of the original. All while the original ended up every bit as bad as one could have feared.

>How can Mighty Gunvnolt / Mighty Gunvolt Burst be such amazing games. Whereas Mighty No. 9 is so damn awful?

Those were 2D handheld games, which is Inti's element. They have tons of experience. MN9 is full 3D, and built in Unreal Engine. They had no idea what they were doing. They were also asked to make 10 versions of the game, and decided to build them all at once instead of finishing one version and then porting from there. And stertch goals like Online added huge technical problems. It's a game weighted down by technical isuses when a KISS approach would have been best.

Igarashi and Ben Judd used the same model for the Bloodstained project, and they've had to since hire entirely new teams who know how to use Unreal engine. This wasn't part of the design at all.

Dwayne Johnson should be Proto Man.

>>384493212

It fits what we already know. Namely that:

1. MN9 is horrendously programmed. Extremely inefficient, prone to crashing, it even locked WiiU's on release and required a hard reboot.

2. They used Excell and Unreal Engine builders to make the game and plan the levels. This was shown in the documentary.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri4bV3Z186Q

3. The programmers for the project seemed to have little experience as shown on mobygames:
http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/mighty-no-9/credits

All the post is doing is explaining some of the backstory. That they didn't value programmers and thought drag/drop GUI programms could do the job just as well.

They can make shit up to fill out the rest, like they are robots at all but people wearing powersuits. The robot masters are just angry nobodies Wily recruited to take over a city with their own little back stories.

>>384494929
Just make it Pinocchio with Wily and the robot masters as tangible threats

>>384494491
If Astroboy can have a movie/story. Megaman can too.
Not saying that it should, but it most certainly can.
