Title: Converting favorite movies into AGS games
Post by: tygerbug on Wed 15/03/2006 10:07:45
  As a project right now I'm restoring a movie called The Thief and the Cobbler (animated film which inspired Aladdin). As a joke, I made this screenshot, to show how the movie would look as an AGS game.

  Monkey Island style.

  Even just as a gag, I would love to see people's favorite movies translated into AGS-style screenshots. If there were all the time in the world, many movies would make good games.

OCP?

Very Nice!  There was an earlier topic relating to this but people hadn't bothered with screenshots:

  Screenshots would be much funnier.  =)  For some reason Pulp Fiction is the first to come to mind.


  Weird that someone mentioned Monty Python in that thread when there are already a few Python CD-ROM games with some adventure-like elements in them. Close enough!


   Hi Matt! Yeah this is OCP ...

There was a Photoshop Phriday contest with this theme a long time ago, so long ago the thread is no longer available!

I made this for it.

  Very funny!


   The odd thing is, I suggested exactly this at Somethingawful when I posted that picture ... didn't realize they'd already done it!

It was an AGS Phriday on these forums. That's why Ghor's effort was so infantile yet masculinely voiced.

  Didn't know you guys had a Phriday.  =)    Neat.

I always thought the Fifth Element would make a great adventure game.

This reminds me of an old BG Blitz pic I think it was. Fear and Loathing as an adventure game.
Personally I'd like to see Friday the 13th adventure game. (Yes I do know there is one in existence, but I mean I want to see a good one)
