This will be it. I know it! Finally, a director who might be able to undertake the seemingly unproven task of making a good movie out of a video game. Gore Verbinski has left the helm of ‘Pirates 4’ and focus on ‘Bioshock,’ an adaptation of the best selling video game.
No word on how his leaving ‘Pirates 4’ will effect that production schedule, which was slated to hit theaters in 2010.
‘Bioshock,’ was one of the best games of 2007, and has some of the best story found in a video game, ever. I truly do believe, if any video game movie had a chance of being good, this is the one. It has the right story, and the right director.
Here’s hoping.
