#until dawn adaptation

[lunalivvy]

i’m so excited for the until dawn adaptation but idgaf what happens as long as emily and sam survive ok 😭

(and that we get the “understand the palm of my hand bitch” scene)

I’m so torn at wanting an until dawn adaption so badly and knowing that it will never be exactly what i want it to be and therefore will be disappointed

Ive had this legitimate conspiracy theory since I heard the rumor back in 2019 that the Child's Play remake was supposed to be an original plot before being adapted into a remake that there are people out there wanting to make original horror movies but some executive keeps going "well, it probably won't sell unless it's under the name of an existing franchise" and slapping a new name on them

Because what do you mean the Until Dawn movie is going to have none of the same characters, plot elements, or even setting

What do you mean it's about an entirely different cast with an entirely new plot

I could understand if they just wanted to make a movie within the Dark Pictures Anthology and realized that the name might turn people away because of the poor game reception, but why pretend it was ever going to be Until Dawn

[oreolesbian]

so they just… wrote a horror movie. that has literally nothing to do with the video game, until dawn. but then they called it until dawn. because unfortunately all that sells in hollywood is recognizable branding. 🙃

Unpopular opinion: but what about you guys with adaptations? From books or Disney animations in general, you complain about anything, any change. For me it's so good when they change the story and its elements, it's called adaptation for a reason, so how to train your dragon is going to suck, Why would I pay or waste my time watching something I already know? I don't know why make a 100% faithful adaptation, just watch the shitty animation that already exists, no surprises, no new perspectives. And as for books, there are thousands of elements that work on pages and others on screen, different means and ways of telling a story. For example Colleen Hoover's Verity, how will a film convey that she heard the skull crack before the blood spurted? Without a narrator or her turning dramatically , and what's the problem with changing? The adaptation will never be an exact copy of your imagination, and you know how horrible it is to read a book already knowing exactly what is going to happen, Harry Potter was horrible for me because I already knew what would happen in all the books, that's why I like adaptations like the Percy Jackson and Peculiar Children movies that showed other versions of the story. Even the Until Dawn movie, which will bring a new story with new characters and some elements that refer to the game, looks much better than any blatant copy that Hollywood makes.

beth washington did not die and get cannibalized by her own sister for the until dawn film adaptation to look this bad

[tinynightmarewoman]

New Until Dawn looks like utter arse, but I'm not surprised since they've been ignoring the source material from the beginning.

Seriously folks there was warning signs from almost the very start, don't be surprised that we've now been in a hit and run at 100mph

It could have been a banger movie but nnnnoooooo

[beabfleab]

Just saw that new until dawn trailer…yikes.

Really cool concept similar to happy death day, but instead of just making that film maybe set in the same universe if they wanted, they named it after until dawn when it’s not even similar. Don’t know what they were thinking, would’ve been so much better marketed as its own thing rather than an adaptation that only kept the name 😕

[euphorial-docx]

HATE that they added a time loop plot to the until dawn movie. the whole point of the game was that actions had permanent consequences. also not having any of the characters from the game is kinda crazy too.

[jennrypan]

So..the Until Dawn movie..isn't even until dawn.

Instead of taking the original plot (THE WENDIGOS IN THE LOUGE AND THE PRANK) they're just..making it a time loop of horror genres 😶

Cool..cool..don't fucking say it's abt the game if it's fucking not maybe. Yall fucks had one(1) job. Stop doing extra shit. You really couldn't do a plot similar to the game?? The decisions aren't that important if it isn't the PLAYERS decision, that's the whole point of a choose your own adventure game. God--- this game is everything to me and I was soo excited but it's not even the game it's just a fucking new thing entirely.

[babymorte]

Yeah I liked it. Started out a little slow but was pretty good. Good amount of comedy and horror and the gore was great lol. I'm not sure what it's streaming on or if it is yet I get my movies in other ways 🏴‍☠️lol

I also watched mickey 17 and that was also worth a watch.

oh i’m glad! oh do you ?? you got a treasure map to that booty 🤔😂 i heard it was good for people who like tucker and dale vs evil n that’s one of my fave films of all time so im glad to know it’s living up to the hype 🤩 i just saw the director is doing something else too im really excited about but i can’t remember for the life of me what it is 😭

is it?!? i wanted to see it so bad n i was so bummed it wasn’t getting good reviews cuz it looked like such a fun time like a bullet train typa thing. im actually going to be having a movie night with some friends soon so maybe we can add this to the list too 🤩

until dawn headers

[treasuredplanet]

I went through every available emotion upon seeing the Until Dawn movie trailer, thinking it was an adaptation of the game, realizing it wasn't, thinking it was again, and finally understanding that it's a totally different story set in the same universe

[taylorvaughnsaidso]

letssssssss gooooooooo!

(oh dont go find that article if you're spoiler free lol they spill the whole thing)

[alfairy]

Honestly I wish that instead of an Until Dawn movie adaptation we were getting an adaptation of this
