Need for Speed TV Show?

Post by Bojan »

Shacknews reports that EA has signed a deal with with United Talent Agency, to help EA create movies and televisions shows based on their titles. They mentioned Army of Two, Need for Speed, Dead Space and Mirror's Edge as likely titles to get a movie or TV transition.

Read the whole article here.

Now imagine a movie where the main character has his car crashed right at the beginning of the movie and has to start all over with illegal street races to get back into the game and beat that incredibly annoying guy on the top. ;)

Thanks to Guil for letting us know.

As long as the movies and/or TV shows are good, I really don't care. I just hope they don't end up like G4TV after the G4/TechTV merger.

Just don't call it "Need for Speed: The Movie". Ever.

EDIT: Or commission Uwe Boll to make it.

Oh, here we go. Once again I find it necessary to bring up this very infamous catchphrase. "You can't bash this idea until you've seen it because you don't know! YOU JUST DON'T KNOW!"

This is also as bad, if not worse, than the time where Undercover became the official title for the next NFS.

So I have always thought of the franchise as movie worthy, just needs to have a good strong storyline. Hopefully Undercover will! It looks to be heading in the right direction. I think that if they made NFS into a movie(s) it could easily be the a hit. Depending on the story and the filming style. Once again, Undercover looks amazing!!!

Agree with Supra-man

And I hope to god it's not live action, because every live action program, at least to me, SUCKS!!!!!!!!!! :evil:

Now I know why people don't want Uwe Boll doing this: His video game movies SUCK UP THE A-S-S! I'm an inexperienced rookie at flash animation and I could do better than him! I say we start a petition to ensure this idea doesn't get into his hands.
