Hi,

I have a question for our community. Do you want a movie in TES universe?
Me yes, it could be awesome like these two videos...

No.. Never.. I would never watch it.. They would have Nicholas Cage as the main character.. And he will be stealing an elder Scroll from the Imperial Council because of a secret map on the back which led him to some golden pyramid..

I was going to link the second one. :) Those are kinds of movies I'd like.

Like those SWTOR. Those CGI videos are amazing.

I don't see how something as universally large as TES could be summarized in just a few hours. No, I'd not like to see this even attempt to come to fruition.

It'd end up like that terrible Eragon movie and completely butcher the source material.

Not a movie, too short, and they would [censored] it up and make it pg13 so children can watch it when it comes out. Maby id watch the show if they made one, and only if quinten tarentino was involved

I think it would be cool.It would have to be on the level of Lord of the Rings as far as production and quality goes.I wouldnt want a straight to dvd low budget type film cause I dont feel as though it would do the series justice, but maybe it would be better then nothin.Or maybe a series like Game of Thrones would be cool.I think they could go in all type of directions with it, so yea i would like to see a movie/series.

More i think about it a tv series would probably be better.They could go with multiple characters in different seasons.

First off, i'd forgotten how cool that first trailer was. Second, i was completely impressed with the trailer for TESO-that was bad-ass on an epic scale and reminded me of some of the D and D campaigns my buddy would DM for our group back in the day.

That said, the only way i think a movie would work in the Elder Scrolls setting is if it was CG like the second trailer and was an ongoing series. There is just too much lore that would have to be exposition'd to support any kind of decent plot. Though thinking a bit more, an anime-style setting might work as well. And an anime series could definitely be serialized to follow up a movie.

Knowing how Hollywood is though, i think any TES lore would get the Starship Troopers treatment(not an indictment on Starship Troopers, loved the first one). And that wouldn't do justice to the immense amount of lore imo.

There is no word or phrase in the English language to express the amount of do not want at the idea of an Elder Scrolls movie.
