Brie Larson: “The gaming community is much bigger than the film and television world… There’s so much that video games are taking from cinema, and I think it’s really time for us in cinema to recognize what we can take from video games.”
If I had her history of misogynistic smear campaigns I wouldn’t get anywhere near the gaming community. She’s braver than I am lol

Bigger than movies sure. Television I wouldn’t say. Like video games still locked in demographically. People of all ages watch tv and movies.

I mean if you include games for smartphones and the international gaming market, there is no comparison.

Because gaming is interaction based entertainment with films and shows you basically just watch.

There is a lot to take from gaming.
However, what companies are going to end up taking away from this is that they need a way to add loot boxes to movies.

The writing and storytelling for games has gotten so good over the years that they are literally making TV shows based off the games. The Last Of Us and Fallout are great examples of that.

we should make movies based on our own ideas and not just slop adaptations of existing games because they require less effort than writing an actual movie, developing a character, having a climatic event, and a resolution?
video game adaptations rarely, if ever, get it right.

Umm wow the cinema world should be taking from video games? Cultural appropriation much. /s

I think it’s a mistake to start treating gamers as if they’re people
