Randoman Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I saw this on GoNintendo and I felt like I had to share it. Greg Silverman’s Stampede has announced that they'll be producing a movie based on Konami's Dance Dance Revolution. In a synopsis that is both horrifying and amazing at the same time, the DDR film will "explore a world on the brink of destruction where the only hope is to unite through the universal language of dance." Stampede will partner with producers J. Todd Harris and Marc Marcum of Branded Entertainment, as well as Konami, on the film. So what do you guys think of this? Part of me cringes at the very idea of this, but the other part of me can't wait to see how ridiculous and amusing the movie will be.

Jingle Jangle Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 It's time to D-D-D-Duel, I only played DDR once. Strange making a movie off a rhythm game. These days anything will be a movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last I have heard about the Tetris move was several years ago. That somehow it will be a trilogy, I kid you not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leading up to the big crossover in the puzzle cinematic universe. Edited October 2, 2018 by Jingle Jangle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francie Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 As an active pump it up player myself, if it's an apocalypse movie where everything is solved by DDR it'll probably be terrible. If it's about the competitive aspect of it like a sort of, sports movie structure then i'm excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interdimensional Observer Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 This is going to be atrocious. Konami, why? Critics and the masses alike are going to step all over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DanMan Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 This reads like a joke; people always want to go overboard with movie adaptions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Tetris'D (and it's sequels). And the (actually pretty fun) game based off Tetris'D. I wouldn't consider a Tetris movie that out there, although it would work better as a short film more than anything else. As for the topic itself... Honestly, my first thought jumped to this: But seriously, it sounds like the kind of film that runs off cheese, and no one is supposed to take it seriously.

That's something they'd cut out, considering she's basically irrelevant to the entire story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Branniglenn Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 This isn't just the most brilliant premise for the film, it's probably the only one that could work. And I firmly believe you could make a good movie out of any topic if your premise is solid and everybody making it is on the same page.

Arcphoenix Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I actually can see this working, believe it or not, if it takes itself seriously. Sure it will probably spawn a bunch of memes and have gosh darn cringey lines out of context, but by this point movies have been made out of pretty much anything and worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I will count it a success if I can sit through it without walking out. Signed, An active DDR player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
