OK, so I'm a bit miffed. I'm cutting out my fabric for McCalls 4306, view D, and 2 of my bottom 3 strips I don't have enough fabric. I check and re-check that I'm cutting for the right size, the right fabric/pattern layout for my size, and I bought what the pattern called for.
This is a bias cut skirt so the grainline arrow makes the pattern pieces lay diagonally on the fabric. Each strip has 2 pieces. See scan of the instruction page:
So, I fume a bit but then I just cut 2 of each piece, fabric laying right side up. My question is, and yeah I'm going to do it because I've cut already, is will it make much difference? I have cut the 2 pieces with the grainline horizontal on the page, when the instructions have one horizontal and one vertical.

Calais crisis: Migrants stay in British hotels at taxpayers' expense
MIGRANTS who have smuggled themselves into the Britain from Calais are staying in hotels at the taxpayer's expense, it has been revealed.
Hundreds of stowaways are receiving three cooked meals a day in hotels boasting gyms and spas – along with £35 a week in spending money.
They have been spotted smoking cigarettes and talking on mobile phones in the hotels by holidaying families.
One migrant, identified only as Adam, was taken to a hotel in Lancashire after arriving in Britain stowed away in a lorry.
Adam, from war-torn South Sudan, said: "The situation is really good here, much better than the situations we have been through."
He is now waiting to be given a lawyer so he can make a formal application to claim asylum in Britain.
The Home Office pays private companies a whopping £150million to to find asylum seekers somewhere to stay.
But companies have turned to hotels because the country's immigration centres – built to house 1,200 people – are full.
Tory MP Alec Shelbrooke said: "It is outrageous that asylum seekers are being put up in hotel rooms at public expense.
"It's this sort of soft touch that makes this country so attractive to migrants. The message should go out that they will be detained in disused military camps."
A Home Office spokesman told the Mail on Sunday: "Decisions on the use of hotel accommodation, including which premises are used, are made by individual contractors.
"We have made clear to our providers that the use of hotels is only ever acceptable as a short-term contingency measure.
"We are taking steps with providers to ensure that this is the case."

Change Teaching by Changing Grading
I have made a few changes in my chemistry class recently that came more out of pragmatic necessity than anything else, but these changes have caused me to revisit grading...again. Ultimately, what caused my change was the expectation of having three graded assignments put into the grade book each week. That's three for every student,Read More

We have a saying in the science department here: students lack mental stamina. They are faced with problems, and instead of working together to find an answer, they give up entirely.

text: The Buddy Foundation is a no-kill animal shelter in the northwest suburban area of Chicago. We had been donating to the shelter for many years, and then 2 years ago when our own dog passed away, we adopted a Golden Retriever from The Buddy Foundation. We were immediately impressed with the quality of care that they give their animals. Our dog had a hematoma on his ear and they made sure that it was surgically corrected before they released him to us. They are also extremely careful in their selection process to ensure that their animals are going to a protective and caring home.

- Language and Experience
(E-bog, ePub)
Beskrivelse: In this study, Ronald Berman examines the work of the critic/novelist Edmund Wilson and the art of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway as they wrestled with the... Læs mere problems of language, experience, perception and reality in the 'age of jazz.' By focusing specifically on aesthetics-the ways these writers translated everyday reality into language-Berman challenges and redefines many routinely accepted ideas concerning the legacy of these authors.Fitzgerald is generally thought of as a romantic, but Berman shows that we need to expand the idea of Romanticism to include its philosophy. Hemingway, widely viewed as a stylist who captured experience by simplifying language, is revealed as consciously demonstrating reality's resistance to language. Between these two renowned writers stands Wilson, who is critically influenced by Alfred North Whitehead, as well as Dewey, James, Santayana, and Freud.By patiently mapping the correctness of these philosophers, historians, literary critics and writers, Berman aims to open a gateway into the era. This work should be of interest to scholars of American literature, philosophy and aesthetics; to academic libraries; to students of intellectual history; and to general readers interested in Fitzgerald, Hemingway and Wilson.

All three products share the same Virtex-5 based processing engines as the VXS-610 and XMC-210. First shipments of these products will take place in Q4 2008, to fulfill other contract awards with several defense customers.
VXS-610 and XMC-210 are available immediately. XMC-220, XMC-230 and XMC-231 will be shipping in Q4 2008. For further information, call (410) 552-3352 (North America) or +44 1236 789 567 (Europe).

Notes on decanting by Mimi Avery
Anything that aerates a wine – ostensibly speeds up the aging process, 90% of all red wines and oaked white wines would benefit from this – care is needed where the wine is already old, but it sometimes needs decanting to re-fresh. Delicate or young whites do not really benefit. So many red wines are now sold within a year of production that even they would benefit from a little agitation. But isn't absolutely necessary.
Where it comes into its own is with youthful Bordeaux / Italian / Spanish where the fruit is not as rich due to the cooler climates, therefore the agitation / oxidation melds the tannins and fruit giving a more balanced flavour.
Contraptions – I love decanters – but also if you are showing off it is sometimes fun to pour from the actual bottle so double decanting e.g. into something then back into the original (cleaned to remove any sediment) bottle can allow your guests to see the label and not disturb the sediment every time they pour. Gizmo's do the job, and are also a talking point, but do not (normally) help with the sediment issue so beware!
When wine is stored for a certain length of time a sediment often forms and drops to the bottom of the bottle. Generally speaking all wines to be "laid down" should be stored on their side, label face up – this is for 3 reasons –
a. it means that the cork remains moist giving a perfectly hermetic seal.
b. It means that if any sediment forms you always know where the sediment is, directly under the label.
c. When you gently remove the wine from the racking you can always see what the wine is, without twisting the bottle round and disturbing the sediment.
Prior to decanting a wine that has been laid down, there are two schools of thought,
The first - I only do in desperation, especially if travelling with the wine to the event - is to stand the wine up for 24 hours, prior to decanting. This allows the sediment to slowly slip down the side of the bottle and "pile up" at the base of the bottle, still on the opposite side to the label, this means that, with the motion of travel, there is less likely hood of the sediment completely stirring up in the wine.
The second, is for decanting in situ, when the wine is brought from its resting place (it should be carried horizontally, and not flipped upright on removal from the rack/case) it can be placed in the corner of an open draw (which will make it approx 45°) or a bottle cradle. This allows the cork to be removed without putting the bottle upright, thus not disturbing the sediment. Once open it is then ready for careful decanting.
Decanting the traditional (candle) or modern (torch) involves a light source pointing upwards from a table, shelf, surface. Hold the bottle to be decanted in one hand with the lower neck over the light source (in the case of candle not close enough to crack the bottle with the heat, and not far enough away that it soots up the bottle!) and the decanter/other vessel in the other hand both should be at approximately 45°. Always have a clean glass near the decanter holding hand.
Wine should be poured in one steady pour from the bottle into the decanter. If done slowly andy sediment will slowly creep down the bottle and congregate in the shoulder of the bottle the wine will slowly flow over this and through the neck of the bottle into the decanter. Once you ahve got as much of the wine out without releasing the sediment slowly put the decanter down and pick up the glass, without disturbing the sediment in the bottle and without putting it near the candle!! Then pick up the glass and pour as much of the remaining liquid in to the glass to the point where you do not want to move any more of the sediment.
The wine is now decanted – taste the wine in the glass to check that the decanter of wine is healthy, this will also allow you to decide if the stopper should be put in the decanter or not – if still tasting youthful, it is not necessary if delicate put the stopper in.
If there is a likely hood that the wine is very mature and will be delicate decant immediately prior to serving, anything less than 25 years old should be fine decanted before the guests arrive.

"Lawless are they that make their wills their law" – William Shakespeare Unfortunately, in recent years we have seen a major escalation regarding the issue of the legality of Israeli communities over the 1949 Armistice Line (known as the "Green Line"). When asked about this, many foreign officials give little if any explanation for their accusations of illegality, fostering the inescapable impression that the issue is less about law and more about interests and politicking.

text: This is horrible. The extended Japanese cut of Jackie Chan's POLICE STORY has long been the Holy Grail for Jackie Chan fans. The ultra rare widescreen Japanese laserdisc is a major collector's item, as most have rotted away (mine hasn't, thank God). Sadly, the footage for the extended scenes has been destroyed. This includes an entire opening credit sequence and comical birthday party surprise that explains the birthday cake stuff later in the film. There is also a meaningful epilogue outside the shopping mall, with the characters going their separate ways. No dialogue is exchanged and the scene is pushed forward simply by the actor's expressions. It's a great scene and a terrible loss. The upcoming Region 2 Hong Kong Legends DVD will include the alternate (and superior) Japanese outtakes, which still exist, as an extra. New Line Cinema owns the rights to the badly cut down, rescored and dubbed version, with Miramax/Disney owning the rights to the 96 minute Hong Kong version. They do NOT own the rights to the original soundtrack, so when it is released, it will be dubbed. I have the HKL R2 edition on order from www.blackstar.co.uk This will be the Hong Kong version, running 96 minutes.

How I turned mistakes into more customers.
Hello women in business NI - my name is Moira Ní Ghallachóir, CEO and founder of mng, I've just joined WIB. mng started as a modest sole trader mid 2013 creating unique events with local services in West Donegal. In 2015 we became 'mng Ventures Ltd. I work with small business owners and teach them how to find ideal clients, make more money and create their ideal life. I do that by way of business coaching, professional speaking and leading business training groups.
I'd like to share with you 4 of my biggest mistakes in business and how I turned each of them into more customers. I hope it's useful in 2016 - here's to an outstandingly successful year for all of us.
1 - Planning for 3 years not 3 months:
In the last year I've become meticulous in planning my daily activity right down to the hour and its working wonders. Focusing on a short term plan over a three or give year plan and renewing that plan every 90 days has turned my business around from 'some customers' to lots of customers from all over the world. I now know exactly how many customers I need, how to attract them and where to find them.
2 – Speaking in the third person:
I've learned that the human connection is everything in business, even more so nowadays in this globalised world. Being a small business owner is a good thing, so be proud of it and don't pretend to be a massive company that doesn't have the time to speak directly to customers. Sometimes I read BIO's/About pages and wonder who are they speaking to? It can look as though you couldn't be bothered to write it yourself. I find with my clients that 9 times out of ten there's an amazing personal story that's not being told, a story that will connect with customers instantly.
3 - Talking about process not the outcome the process delivers:
As business owners we're all amazing at talking about our process of what we do, we could talk about it all day long. Problem is our clients don't care about the process they care about the outcomes - what's in it for them. Talking about outcomes your service or product provides attracts more customers and ultimately grows your business! When you get your head around outcomes over process customers start appearing everywhere. And this can be as simple as changing the way you talk about your business. Imagine if you were turning business away in 2016 all because you were being more authentic about what your business makes possible? Its that easy.
4 - Not being consistent:
Have you ever felt like you're running around doing everything but feel like nothing was getting done and it was stressing your out? Lack of consistency was huge for me, I was doing the headless chicken. In the last quarter of this year I've trebled my customer base through consistent activity. The trick was working out what my business building activities were and breaking that down into clusters. Then I was consistent daily and I promise you the results speak for themselves.
Some of the results in just the past few months include a motivational speaker who got clearer on her goals and secured her first paying clients as a result of our work together. I've helped an entrepreneur with a business idea he has been struggling with for years - removed the obstacles that were preventing progress and created a plan of action to get things moving now. A therapist learned about talking less about their process and focused on what their therapy makes possible has resulted in a full practise of clients and booked out workshops all over the world.
If this sounds like something you'd love to explore and be considered for the few available openings, just go to the link below to fill out the short questionnaire. After that, if I feel that we might be a fit, I will send a link to my calendar and we can get on the phone for a short chat to talk about how this will work. I have several great options to work with me depending on where you are and where you want to go with your business. And I would love for 2016 to be the turning point for your business you always remember. Leave a comment, ask me any questions....
Go raibh míle maith agat.

We now have physiques designed for rushing over the savannas, but we reside a life-style designed for moving in the your bed to the breakfast time stand; towards the carseat; to the office chair; for the restaurant sales space; for the family area couch and also returning to your bed.
It was not usually this way. Not long ago in the United States, a man that worked on a plantation did the same as 20 miles of running every day; and his awesome better half do the equivalent of 7 miles associated with jogging.Nowadays, the every day responsibilities at work and home stop us associated with our own recliners, and when we wish exercise, we have to seek out it out. In fact, health specialists firmly insist which obesity issue is possibly caused a minimum of as much by not enough exercise because to eat too much.
Hence, it is necessary that folks need to move around.
However, that doesn't signify a panel or perhaps two round the old secondary school observe will certainly offset an everyday dose associated with sitting donuts. Exercise on your own is not effective, professionals say. They will put up when you simply exercise and don't improve your diet, you may well be able to prevent weight gain and even lose a couple pounds for a time.
Even so, it is not something that you are likely to sustain unless of course exercises are part of a standard program. The greater regularly you workout, the simpler it's to keep up unwanted weight. This is what to accomplish each day to make sure that you receive the actual exercise you'll need.

Steadily get to no less than half an hour of fast walking 5 times per week. Brisk walks by themselves possess health and mental rewards which can be worth the while.
Third. Wander the actual treadmill machine.

The majority of us watch television in any case, and interior digital cameras permits one to change an inactive activity in to a wholesome walk.

Justifications apart, lack of time is unquestionably any limiting element in most lifestyles. That's the reason wellness experts suggest a basic guide regarding including exercise to your schedule.

OK C.S. Lewis fans, can you answer one question?
Was "Turkish Delight" in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe just a metaphor for sex?
No, but I've thrown my back out more than once doing "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe"
On a moonlit night?
Appears to be more like Beduin Delight.
I like those Fry's Turkish Delight bars too!

That Limmy track has turned me into a glowing sphere of pure love pulsating in interstellar space. And the original ad is also amazing and it's not that problematic either, apart from being an ad. It's one of the standouts from the period when British advertising went all weird and amazing.
But it's this ad which made me, as a tiny bobling, yearn to escape from my humdrum terrestrial existence into the darkly mysterious aethereal realm of, uh, mid-priced car lube:

Whad'ya think? (:
There y'go... making silly presumptions. Me think??? Hasn't happened since... since... um... well, you see the problem here is that I was born on a small planet at the edge of one of the distant red-shifted galaxies, and I arrived in Roswell, New Mexico a few years before my relatives made a somewhat noisier landing out in the nearby desert !!!
In a successful effort to avoid the Men In Black, my family an I spent the next several years moving around the country at frequent intervals, during which time I attended 27 different schools, including Northpoint Muddle Skool, before ending up at GMITT !!!
Then, after 7 pleasant years in Area 51, there followed 30 more years at the Center of the Universe (Elm Grove, Wisconsin) !!!
I always like to stay at least one step ahead of the Islamofascist Muzzle-em enemy. Therefore, I now lives in northern Cydonia with my 72 formerly virgin wives, my 666 devilish children, one small, noisy, long-haired Mexican Chihuahua named Sam (short for Samson), 288 of Lenny Dee's marvelous Hammond organ songs, nine aging Macs, one very stubborn Aurora, and an awesomely cool Powerbook G-333, all of which are linked together through an AppleTalk network that sporadically communicates with two miserable Microsoft Windows 98 machines of dubious origin, and one Dell Black Beauty running on Microsoft Ex-Pee Pro with SP2 (plus four more current, but highly devious) security updates.) !!!
In February of 1980, I had the unique opportunity to lay prone inside the sarcophagus within the Kings Chamber in the Great Pyrimid of Cheops, at Giza... while consulting with Egyptologists at the magnificent Cairo Museum in Cairo, Egypt. (A truly amazing, once in a lifetime, experience that has been duplicated only by former AM radio talk show host Art Bell.) That was the last time I was able to actually think. Amazing what solitude inside a sarcophagus can do, eh? !!! ;-))

Sometimes, you find out pretty quickly that someone you hired isn't going to work out.
While the final decision to terminate may take some time, many supervisors naturally start giving the cold shoulder to bad hires. Hey, if the guy's destined to be a short-timer, why invest in the relationship—especially if he's already been told his performance isn't up to snuff?
Such a blow-off may be crass, but it's not the kind of behavior that commonly puts an employer on the losing end of a lawsuit.
Recent case: Within weeks of being hired by the financial advisory firm Advest, Steven Snyder began complaining about alleged anti-Semitism. He apparently heard a secretary blame U.S. military deaths in Iraq on Israel.
Meanwhile, Snyder—whose performance wasn't nearly as good as management had hoped when it hired him—was growing irked that co-workers weren't inviting him to join them for lunch and that he didn't get a prime office that opened up.
Within a few months, Advest fired Snyder for poor performance. He sued, claiming he lost his job because of his earlier complaint about anti-Semitism. He pointed to the secretary's comment and his gripes about missed lunches and lousy office space as proof he was being punished for complaining.
The court tossed out the claim. It said nothing Snyder had experienced rose to the level of an adverse employment action or retaliation. (Snyder v. Advest, et al., No. 06-Civ-1426, SD NY, 2008)

Cheers erupted at a community meeting in Burns when Sheriff Ward said it was time for a small, armed group occupying a national wildlife refuge to "pick up and go home." Ward told hundreds of people gathered at the meeting Wednesday evening that the group needed to leave so local people could get back to their lives. "You're not invited to come here and bother with our citizens," Sheriff Ward said. "I don't believe that just a handful of people have the right to come in from outside of our area and tell us that we don't know how to live our lives."...KOIN
Here's the KOIN video report:
Issues of concern to people who live in the west: property rights, water rights, endangered species, livestock grazing, energy production, wilderness and western agriculture. Plus a few items on western history, western literature and the sport of rodeo... Frank DuBois served as the NM Secretary of Agriculture from 1988 to 2003. DuBois is a former legislative assistant to a U.S. Senator, a Deputy Assistant Secretary of Interior, and is the founder of the DuBois Rodeo Scholarship.

This may still be overturned by citizen referendum. However, from the {admittedly small) number of New Zealand citizens I know, it would not be at all certain that anything even close to an overturn would occur.
One of the MPs, Maurice Williams gave a wonderful (and lighthearted) speech in support of the bill.
A telling quote, that can be heard all around this country as well, from those favoring equality in marriage rights was: "I give a promise to those people who are opposed to this bill right now... the sun will still rise tomorrow, your teenage daughter will still argue back with you as if she knows everything, your mortgage will not grow, you will not have skin disease or rashes or toads in your bed."
Just as, here in Massachusetts, the legions of Hades have not come forth from the Sumner or Ted Williams tunnels, nor has the State House dome collapsed from divine retribution.

Jenna Dewan, aka Mrs. Channing Tatum, was spotted looking white hot while attending an event at Chateau Marmont in Hollywood late last month. The brunette beauty wore a very simple snow white frock (from Tibi) and dressed it up with perfectly set locks and well put together extras that added just the right dose of WOW into her outfit:

The bling around her neck was divine, and so was the clutch. But what truly made us look twice were her multicolored exotic heels:
A closer look at Jenna Dewan's pumps
Now those pointy toe pumps are seriously something, yes? They're gorgeous and we know you want a pair so we looked it up. Jenna's heels are rumored to be from Report Signature. However, we can't officially confirm that since it isn't available online. For those interested, these three (3) snakeskin alternatives might do the trick.

Helado Negro, Jesika
Walter's Downtown
1120 Naylor Street
Houston, TX, 77002
This event is all ages
Watch & Listen
Mitski warmly recalls a quote from sculptor El Anatsui, "Art grows out of each particular situation, and I believe that artists are better off working with whatever their environment throws up."
With this nerve exposed lyrically, and having dived into her new
beginning, Mitski chooses her 2014 breakthrough album Bury Me at Makeout Creek to explore uncharted sonic territory, trading in large string arrangements for guitar and bass. While studying composition at SUNY Purchase's music conservatory, she previously recorded music with a full orchestra.
However as college graduation inched closer, Mitski moved away from the concert hall and into the campus' active DIY scene. Upon relocating to New York following graduation, she entered stages at Death By Audio, Silent Barn, and Bed Stuy basements, entrenching her songs of love, fear, lust, and brilliant clarity into entirely sympathetic ears.
Since releasing Bury Me at Makeout Creek, Mitski has
received international acclaim for her distinct, arresting sound and profoundly reflective lyrics. Pitchfork applauded the release as "inventive and resourceful," while Rolling Stone celebrated her "deep-cutting lyrics." NME said of Bury Me, "it's a record that doesn't tug at your heart-strings as much as it mercilessly pounds at them, taking to your emotions like a lead pipe to a
piñata." She has also received widespread attention for her "cathartic" live shows as dubbed by The New York Times' Jon Caramanica.
"I was so young when I behaved 25," Mitski sings on "First Love / Late Spring," "yet now I find I've grown into a tall child." This veritable thesis speaks to sentiments of the poetry and beauty of struggling up the hill to adulthood. Mitski follows El Anatsui's humbling advice, cathartically revealing snapshots from her adventures in youth, and theempowerment found in sharing these stories with others. In2015 Mitski is poised to continue delivering her particular flavor ofsoul-baring rock, and tour throughout North America and beyond.
The son of Ecuadorean immigrants, Helado Negro was born in South Florida in 1980. His childhood was suffused with tropical heat, humidity, hurricanes, all refracted with the rich sounds and colors of the various Latin American cultures of southern Florida. Pounding bass beats from passing cars, boom boxes bouncing down the block, and late-night parties called "peñas" provided a foundation for Helado Negro's interest in sound and lifelong quest to discover the unlimited variety of objects used to produce music. Most recently he created a new collaborative group with Julianna Barwick called OMBRE releasing their debut album in 2012 called Believe You Me. Helado Negro has worked with Bear in Heaven mixing their Pitchfork's Best New Music album Beast Rest Forth Mouth. He also produced Prefuse 73's 2010 album Everything She Touched Turned Ampexian.
Jesika is a Chicana solo songwriter from the South Texas border. She writes songs on guitar and sings.

Many movie fans have proclaimed that video game movies have been casted a "curse" in Hollywood. Honestly, it is completely understandable why someone would say that because truthfully, there hasn't been one good video game movie... ever.
Assassin's Creed is making its way into theaters and movie fans were praying that this would be the movie to end the streak of horrible video game movies. If it was going to be any movie, it would be one a part of a successful franchise like this film, and it would have an amazing cast such as Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, and Jeremy Irons. Now, it appears Assassin's Creed won't be lifting the video game movie curse.
Assassin's Creed Is Another Critical Failure
Sorry Assassin's Creed fans, but this movie was not received well in the slightest by critics or fans alike. Everyone who has seen it has agreed that people are better off spending money on the games than wasting $12 and two hours of your life going to see such a boring, messy movie. The current Rotten Tomatoes rating for the movie is 23% (still changing) and the critic consensus reads:
'Assassin's Creed' is arguably better made (and certainly better cast) than most video game adaptations; unfortunately, the CGI-fueled end result still is still a joylessly overplotted slog.
While I haven't seen the movie myself, it is pretty safe to say that Assassin's Creed will not be getting a sequel. When Michael Fassbender said he wasn't sure whether or not this movie will be getting a trilogy because he's not sure "how people will respond to this."
Why Do Video Game Movies Always End Up Being Lousy?
It's almost common knowledge at this point that most video game movies are horrible. While there have been ones that had redeeming elements such as Warcraft, they end up being extremely disappointing in the end. This raises one huge question: why do these video game movies keep on disappointing the fans and end up being low-quality films?
I could write about this for eternity but at the end of the day, I believe there is one main reason why video games aren't successfully transcending onto the big screen. This would be the fact that video games and movies are two completely different pieces of art and entertainment. Obviously, they both have a story and include characters and locations, but beyond that, they are vastly different.

- These Video Game Adaptations Made For A Steaming Pile Of Awful Films
- The Reviews Are In And Critics Are Killing Assassin's Creed
As ridiculous as this may sound, people tend to forget that video games aren't movies — they are games. These games are meant to be played and have a fun time doing so. When video games were first created, there was no story behind the games but to jump, duck, and dodge.
For example, the original Donkey Kong game's "storyline" featured a big giant ape capturing a girl and a plumber has to jump over barrels and climb up ladders to rescue her, asking the iconic question "How high can you get?" — simple stuff. It was never about the characters you played as or the story but about having fun completing levels and objectives.
Over time, video games evolved and so did the storylines within the game. As much as gamers love the campaigns in their favorite games, they love completing the levels and playing as their favorite characters just as much. Given this, maybe video game movies are inherently flawed because a huge part of the gaming experience is first person involvement.
- Follow the Now Loading Facebook page to keep up with the latest video game news:
If an entire campaign is five hours long, there would probably be 30-45 minutes of actual footage where the remaining time would be dedicating to playing the game (which of course varies on the speed you complete the game). A lot of the action and juicy moments happen in the actual gameplay, which means that when you remove the gameplay, the story is often less satisfying and coherent.
How Could Video Game Movies End Up Succeeding?
Clearly, there isn't one definitive way to make a "good" video game movie. However, there are definitely some very good rules to abide by. It is important that movie studios are sure to acknowledge the past and look towards the future. One of my personal favorite phrases is "history repeats itself." A lot of these video game movies have repeated the same sins over and over again.
I believe one of the main sins that studios keep committing with video game movies is sticking too close to the source material. Believe it or not, like video game movies, comic book movies had a hard time getting off the ground before soaring in the air like they do today. One of the main factors Marvel and DC Comics really started to realize is that they have to respect the source material — to a certain extent.
You cannot make a movie or TV show about a comic book character and just use the name, location, and some basic plot points and then proceed to throw everything else out of the window. At the same time, you can't make a movie where it is exactly page-for-page of the comic book just like a lot of films based off novels do.
Recent comic book blockbusters, specifically Marvel Studios, have computed a perfect formula to making a perfect superhero movie. Superhero movies have figured out how to respect the source material while creating fresh, new stories that actually make sense on the big screen and actually are as entertaining — if not more — than your average blockbuster. In fact, it has come to the point where comic book movies dominate the box office. Will we ever be able to say the same about video game movies?
The storyline of a video game doesn't have the inherent structure to become a full-fledged movie. Therefore, you would have to use a similar method to comic book movies where you respect the video game and use that basic storyline and then expand upon it to give the viewers a fresh, new storyline. All in all, put a spin on the storyline and have fun with it. Sprinkle in some good callbacks and easter eggs to the games and you'll win over the hearts of fans and critics alike. Hopefully studios will eventually realize how to make a successful video game movie so we can move beyond the current slump.
Which video game franchise do you think would make a great video game movie?
What do you guys think? Will the video game movie curse ever be removed? If so, how will it happen? Sound off in the comments below!
