Are we ever going to get a Magic: The Gathering movie? It seems odd we never got one
>>220466153Magic is just Fortnite now. Even their own company gave up on the lore.
>>220466153Crossed got a movie before Magic did.
>>220466383they could reach for the old lore and make a regular fantasy story about 2 "planeswalkers" discovering some spells etc, throw in a black lotus in there, some other memorable cards and there you go

>>220466153Not sure what they would come up with but I'd watch it. Could be kewl.
>>220467525that's a man.
>>220466153I did team sports and parties so this is of no interest to me.
it took forever to get a big blockbuster DnD movie so odds are magic will get one in 10 years max
>>220466153Only this card would make sense as an adaptation, you can just throw the rest of the deck in the trash
>>220467553A simple run through any of the major sets from the past would be great. I'd watch a Ravnica political drama, a Theros adventure, a Zendikar Eldrazi horror, hell even a Phyrexia slasher.
>>220468032you're taking this too literally, they're not going to risk making an 8 figure bomb like warcraft, it'll just be some cheap period piece of the 90s, founder or blackberry style
>>220466153Literally so pozzed it gave me AIDS. Nothing of value, just shit crossovers. I miss 90’s MTG
>>220466153Why bother when they can sell a piece of cardboard for hundreds?
>>220467474Brothers war is tailor made for a film
>>220466383>Magic is just Fortnite now.That's so accurate. I even got duped into buying the LOTR starter kits a while ago before I learned they race-swapped Aragorn on the cards.
>>220468093Honestly some straight to streaming period piece surrounding a group of teenagers or early 20-somethings getting into MtG during the game's early days would probably be the most that could be hoped for. The story behind the various cycles is tangential enough to the card game that the effort required to make a lore-based movie would exceed the potential viewership boost gained from doing so. Most people who are familiar with Magic are more invested in playing, particular cards, the artwork, the overall "vibe," and/or the act of buying and collecting the cards. A lore-based Magic production probably would've needed to have been an animated movie or series made about 25 years ago.
>>220466383please don't remind me
It's being made right now. The Nirvanna the band The Show guy is directing it
>>220466153In today’s environment where people are barely allowed to create anything genuinely fun anymore, unless the fun is approved by some people who’s culture makes them cut baby penises and weird shit like that, yea it probably wouldn’t get made unless it promoted some weird agenda or something, maybe if it had a chance in the 80s, like a dark crystal type film but there’s no real iconic character for movie marketing to blast a million times ya dig
>>220466383At this point I'm pretty sure most of the CCG scene is just card companies chasing relevancy by way of memes and gambling bait. Pokemon cards seem to have been reduced to an ecosystem of scalpers and investors, 12 year olds watching 40 year olds open packs, streamers throwing around stupid money to buy digitally revealed mystery slabbed cards, and people dickwaving at card shows and shops about their $20,000 PSA10 slabs or $5,000 unopened booster packs. Basically an ecosystem of investing, gambling, and vicarious gambling.
>>220468304basically what happened is that all the nerds with no money in their teens grew up and have disposable income now so they're ruining it for everyone else.
>>220466153Final Fantasy set was the best because there was no pozzed nigger shit.
>>220467568How can you tell?
>>220466153Netflix was developing a series a few years ago but abandoned it. Had a friend on the writing team who would ask me lore questions but I was a D&D guy and didn't know.
>>220468216they could make a series that start with human yawghmot and covers all of the stuff until his defeat
>>220466153MTG is woke now.
