Well there's a headline ive been reading since the 90s.
What seems to have changed is that the stories were presented back then as a way for video game makers to tap into larger audiences, and to benefit from being in the good graces of the film industry. These days it seems to be a story about a Hollywood past its prime seeking to maintain relevance by partnering with game studios.
- qwery 4y agoThat's what I thought, but what's different now is that someone's about to make a photo-realistic gaming simulation and shoot a movie in it. From the article: > “somebody’s going to invest in a [gaming] simulation that’s photo-realistic. And then they’re going to shoot a movie in it,” says one Hollywood executive. “It will happen. And it’s probably not too far away.”

- JohnFen 4y agoHmm.. that would be pretty great, actually. podcasts and youtubers do radio and TV far better than radio and TV companies do.
