Who thinks that they’ll actually make the movie about the game characters, vs just using the same names and not caring beyond that?

Why did it have to be Chris Pratt, ugh

Because Marvel-Disney have nothing for him and people are increasingly realizing he just isn’t that entertaining. So he is desperate to get on to another franchise that will protect him when he inevitably cancels himself for hateful shit.

Plus, he is a right wing chud and, if rumors are to be believed, this avoids vaccination requirements for big productions.

Honestly couldn’t care less. But if that means more Jak & Daxter games then go ahead.

Is Tom Holland now better known for Uncharted rather than Spiderman?

It’s a video game publication, so it makes sense that they would refer to his film based on a video game.

So Hollands “Daxter” will just be Holland talking…no funny voice.

No, Holland is Jak. Pratt is Daxter.

Ohhh what?…that really changes the perceived dynamic that I thought they were going for…

For some reason…that sounds worse

Because nether of those actors fit either of thsoe actors. Why aren’t Max Castella and Mike Erwin the first choice for this???

Ehn. Gonna be an easy pass for me.

We don’t want game movies. We would rather have new games based on these titles. Like how hard is Jax & Daxter? Make it move like GTA with some dark/light magic thrown in and a little steampunk and its done.

I’m ok with this. Not excited to have Chris Pratt voice a Jak and Daxter character but it’ll bring attention to the IP which might give us a new game.
