This my friend, is big corporations trying to please the so called 'mindless' masses. There is also a minecraft movie and Frozen 2 in the works.

 

Well, I'm ready for Freddy whenever it comes out.

[Wyzecat 350]

You're kidding.

 

This sounds like it's going to be another attempt to cash in on something successful. The FNaF storyline isn't deep enough to make a good plot for a movie, in my opinion. It's suited for a small game, which FNaF is.

 

I'm not too hopeful about this.

[SomeRetroGeek 110]

I don't know about this. I'll see what I think when the first trailer arrives, but right now, I'll save my thoughts.

here is my opinion: -clears throat-

as you can clearly tell, im not excited at all, i find the games so creepy...and also not excited for fourth game. not. at. all.

I'm excited for a Five Nights movie, it'll be interesting to see how they do it and what sort of style they use being either CGI, live action, etc. I also hope Scott Cawthon is involved to some degree with the movie since he is the man behind the game series. I think it'll be cool to have a Five Nights movie, now a TV series, that's just too much.

[TenorSounds 832]

I'm cautiously optimistic. Obviously they could screw a lot up, and it's clearly an attempt to cash in on the popularity of the series, but who knows? It could be really good.

I don't have high expectations for this, but at the same time I can't wait to see how it turns out ^-^.

Can no-one really remember all the mediocre and terrible game-based movies? What makes you think that FNAF will be any different?

[BlueDiamond 10]

All I got to say I'l bring an extra pair of pants

[The Crimson Cross 7,532]

I'm not one for judging a book by its cover, so I'll just wait until it comes out and see for myself!

You never know, it could turn out great!

 

Though, lets hope they put a lot of effort into making it, instead of relying on the themes for a desperate cash grab. :okiedokielokie:

Because even bad horror movies are good.

[Skeleton Kin 385]

Because even bad horror movies are good.

 

Really? I find most bad horror movies to be absolutely boring.

[StoneCold 144]

I feel that this won't be good, because I believe what makes Five Nights at Freddy's interesting is the story hidden in the background. While this does work in the video game medium, I don't think it will translate well to film.

 

Of course,  it doesn't 'ruin' FNAF for me, as I can always just ignore the movie.

[CosmicHooves 2,705]

Alright I'll admit.

The gaming series wasn't half bad.

Sure it was a really simple game and there was ALLOT of hype around it.

But that doesn't mean it's a bad game.

It's still a good game...

...but WHAT THE FUCK HOLLYWOOD?

Do you REALLY have to turn EVERYTHING that's insanely popular into a movie?!

I mean this is a game with very little story line to build off of.

You might as well make a movie about Minecraft.

Anyways, I have some predictions just in case they have the balls to try and pull this off:

 

1. It's going to be a rushed and cheaply made flick.

 

2. Then Nostalgia Critic is going to review it.

[Strider 58]

Godamnit, even Hollywood wants to milk FNAF. 

[APegLegPirate 168]

FNaF. Terrible game = Terrible movie. I'm sorry but out of all the games out there with amazing film potential and they choose FNaF. I mean seriously. 

[Jokuc 8,174]

Ridiculous. Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse..

 

The games are trash in my opinion, I hate them. The story is stupid and the game is lame as hell. The fact that they want to make a movie out of it annoys me as the just do it to make easy money. Stupid thing I hate the whole franchise but I got to watch it just cause I always watch new horror films..

 

Oh well, I hope this will just be another film we forget about that it ever existed just like the Super Mario film. If kids think about these stupid animatronics instead of Robert Englund when someone say "Freddy horror film" I'm gonna get upset.

 

The only plus I can see is that they got a decent crew and that I finally will get a bunch of jumpscares in a horror film. No matter how bad they fuck up the film, it can't get any worse than the game.

[GeekySonic 1,150]

Well, I'm excited. I love the FNAF series, and I would love to see how it could be adapted into a movie. Seeing as how the games themselves seem to be filler, giving us little to no answers about the plot, I expect that the movie will be the finishing move (that is, if Scott actually has a say in it).

 

And hey, just because it's based on a video game doesn't automatically make it bad. The Halo movies were beast. I have no reason to be cynical about FNAF.
