Yeah. Marvel has movies announced up to 2019 right now, & probably has movies planned up to 2022.2018 seems really early if they haven't started anything yet. Surely they'd have Mario as a forefront for their first proper movie though.
In what universe is Zelda harder to adapt than Metroid? Zelda is Fantasy 101.
I think the dialogue and the quirky aspect of many Zelda characters is much harder to adapt as a cinema experience moreso than Metroid which has much more common sci-fi traits.
He would be perfect for a Kirby movie.
One of the most famous Kirby games' bosses IS a tree, after all
There are, like, no characters in Metroid, including Samus herself. There's way more work to be done with Metroid than there ever will be for Zelda.

Metroid could work as Gravity type of movie.
If you include that, there's also Animal Crossing.Super Mario Bros.
Hmmm...I don't want this to happen . I basically assume the movies will be terrible or 'meh.' Could there even be a good, say, Zelda movie or Metroid movie? Let alone a good Mario movie. I'd hope they're at least animated because Nintendo characters and enemies do not play nice with live action I'd imagine. In any case, I just feel these things will dilute the brand with horrible blockbusters or attempted blockbusters. I hope they get someone with artistic vision like, say, Studio Ghibli in animation, which, again, I hope they go for.
You know the Super Mario Bros movie isn't the only movie that's used a Nintendo IP right?
My thought exactly!Those 50 Pokemon movies they got don't count I guess.
Couldn't have said it better.I think the dialogue and the quirky aspect of many Zelda characters is much harder to adapt as a cinema experience moreso than Metroid which has much more common sci-fi traits.
To further clarify with an example, it's why I think voice acting can be very dangerous for Zelda games as I don't believe the written text translates well to spoken dialogue.
One thing I hope Nintendo never tries to adapt to film or tv, is Earthbound. It's impossible. Don't even try it.
Considering that Kimishima says these movies don't necessarily need Hollywood and the fact that Nintendo regularly teams up with notable animation studios for their works, I think we can safely say we won't see a blockbuster scenario.

I think he's thinking more along the lines of producing and financing movies independently and then pitching them to major distributors after the fact. This is how the Assassin's Creed movie is happening (which seems to be a reasonably ambitious affair) and it's how Mark Millar gets all his comic books (such as Kick-Ass or Kingsmen) made into films.
In theaters?
Either way, I'm hoping it's either Zelda, Kid Icarus, Splatoon, Xenoblade, Star Fox, or Fire Emblem.
The problem is none Nintendo's games would make good movies.

Speaking of the Assassin'c Creed movie, how did Prince of Persia do?
It's Charlie Brown, but with super powers. It's improbable with its status as a semi-retired franchise, but it isn't impossible.
Nothing's impossible, Shamrock7r. Improbable, Unlikely, but never impossible.
