Assassin's Creed - Trailer

[Sledgstone 8,672]

I never played any of the Assassin's Creed games so I have nothing to compare this to. But it does looks far far better than that horrible Prince of Persia movie.

Interesting footage ruined by music that doesn't fit The Spanish Inquisition.... On the bright side it was unsuspected....

I played some of the first game and it wasnt for me. but I can tell you that the big mechanical arm isn't in the game. I predict a Resident Evil approach to the movie making.... basically people that enjoy shit movies will go see it and people that are fans the game will hate it.

Besides the shit music choice that trailer was pretty sick. Being a fan of the series and having played all the primary games in the franchise (with the exception of Unity and Syndicate, 2 and 4 are the best games in this series (Ezio and Edward are two of the best characters to come from this entire series)) I'm seriously looking forward to the movie (though I wish they would of used the Spanish Inquisition for the games, that'd be a great time to set one of the games).

There is, honestly, no way they can fuck this movie up to any extent as the games (after 3) are only loosely tied together (I know it's a spoiler but if you don't plan on playing the games Desmond dies at the end of 3 so it's generally a new real world protagonist now with every game). The new Animus is a little weird but like Elliot from ETC News said (youtube channel, suggest checking them out) they might be going for the VR feel with this new animus (and honestly who wants to watch a movie with a guy lying on a bed for the majority of it when they cut to real world scenes). Outside of that all the basics are there with Abstergo (Templar front) kidnapping an unsuspecting victim, random protagonist being used for his ancestor's memories (who happens to be an assassin) to find what we presume is a Piece of Eden, and a romp down memory lane watching Assassins and Templars kill each other in a historical setting while searching for said Piece of Eden. Sure they may fuck up, it's a movie adaptation of a game, but for now I think this might be the game movie we deserved back in the day when we were getting those shit adaptations.
