All video game movies suck. It’s just a truth. It’s a force of nature, like grativy. However, that’s not to say that someday one game might actually turn into a good film… has to happen sooner or later right? Why not BioShock?
The popular and successful video game “BioShock” has been ready to make the jump to the big screen for some time as it was announced over a year ago that “Pirates of the Caribbean” director Gore Verbinski would be taking on the project. However, back in April of this year it was announced the project was put “on hold” by the studio when the budget for the film ballooned to excess of $160 million. All has been quiet since then. Until now.
The word now is that “28 Weeks Later” director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo is in talks to take over the project. This is the first sign that things could still be in motion for the movie.
