    Default The Sims Movie

    The Sims: The Movie (2009)
    The Sims movie planned - PC News at GameSpot


    So, what do you think?

    I think this has awesome potential. Plus you know it's going to end showing someone at their computer laughing maniacally

    The only real fun I got out of the sims, would be killing my people.
    You know, like putting 4 firework launchers in a small room, taking away the door then setting them off.
    Or telling them to jump off the diving board into a pool with no ladder.

    If the movie doesn't have like.. alot of random pointless death, then it won't be worth it. =[

    I can't tell if that's a practical joke or not... I just can't see how the concept can be adapted into a movie. I suppose they could give it elements of mystery/suspense/horror/surreality, like when the Sims wake up to find that all their toilets have been deleted... or will it be about their gradual awakening, as they realise that they're merely players in someone else's game?
    No matter how they approach it, it's sure to be odd. It'll be interesting to see where they go with this.

    OMG YES.

    and Sim Zoos. We must have Sim Zoos. 50 neighbor sims and firemen stuck in tiny two ft^2 rooms and the police don't care.

    I've pondered on this before (this is old news within The Sims nerd community), but I still don't get it. The Sims 2 is supposed to be a life simulator, so... the movie is going to be about life? About nothing? They're going to buy a new stove and burn the lobster thermador? They're going to have a baby while standing in the bathroom?

    Makes no sense to me.

    I think I might be the only person that thinks it's a brilliant idea, and could turn out to be a great comedy if it's done right. Combine Frank Oz's Stepford Wives with The Sims commercials and you've got your sim movie. To most people that sounds retarded, but to me it's a hoot.

    I agree. It'll be interesting to see what they make of this.

    I'm confused, but it'll be intriguing to see what they decide to do with this. A couple of D's ideas sound like they'd be good fun, and there's a good chance I'll go and see a Sims movie if it's as refreshingly weird as that.

    Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.

    That is what I was thinking... I never liked The Sims, but a Sims movie? Who knows...
    Oh, did I mention I'm awesome?

    Well... you can kill off your sims...

    But if they did that it will be like SAW o_o;;; (*hates*)

    I wonder if the script will be all "Habablaba... dah? Hahaha~ Sicohabe?"
