Did everyone already forget how hollywoodization of "I, Robot" turned out? Nothing good will come out of this, methinks.
Not every good book needs a movie made out of it.
- throwaway2016a 9y agoI actually like I, Robot even if it has nothing to do with the books at all. It's a decent action sci-fi movie. I'm more worried it might be like Ender's Game and remove all substance from it.
- Xoros 9y agoThat's the problem. Changing the story and the spirit, you end up having just a bit of context and the title for marketing only. Faking for getting more audience is wrong from my point of view.
- dragonwriter 9y ago> Did everyone already forget how hollywoodization of "I, Robot" turned out? It didn't happen. An almost completely unrelated work, done almost completely without any intention of connection, got the title and a couple org/character names and other window dressing from Asimov's work added to it. Not at all a guide to how a project setting out to adapt Asimov's work would end up. Sure, the latter might end up badly, but the former is an unrelated thing that provides no guidance.
