His over-acting would be so on point.Breakdown said:
Personally, I'd hope they'd continue the theme of Hollywood beautifying that would be Johansson as Quinn and cast a bit part for a Movie-Bob character played by Chris Hemsworth.
Now I actually want to see what's made.Sexual Harassment Panda said:

OT: Going to be fun watching people post online for about two hours. I would make a joke about how I had already seen the trailer because the Warcraft one came out but the humans fight orcs primarily, not trolls
Once again, I've been let down by Hollywood
With enemies like GamerGate, who needs friends?
This sounds like an awful idea all around. Now this trivial nonsense with the wake of a particularly petty, sexually-frustrated, self-loathing, and/or gynophobic hurricane can stretch out into next decade. Goodie.
Also, lol @ Scarlett Johansson. I want Michael B Jordan to play me right after stepping off set from shooting the next Creed movie. Mandingo can be the stunt double for any nude scenes.

Because those people actually did something. Their stories are about what they do, not about what happens to them.Gethsemani said:
*Sigh* No comment. The Internet's obsession with Zoe Quinn got boring five minutes after it started.
First a whitewashed Ghost in the Shell, now this? Come on, Scarlett Johansson.
I hope there's one liners on par with "they levelled up" and fictional entities like "RedChannit". In all honesty though, if this EVER gets made it'll be like those Way of the Master movies where Christians are obsessed with the idea of being oppressed by "those mean atheists".

I just read her tweets on the subject, she says she hopes it will do the subject matter justice and get people to stop thinking "oh, its the internet just get offline it doesn't affect you". I'll believe it if/when I see it, but I'd say it's a nice sentiment. Better than sitting around snarking about it.
I don't give a chimpanzee who's in it or who's directing them to do what to whom. The only thing I care about is will anyone be getting their stuff out.
Sure better be, 'cos that's the only way it's gonna be keeping me occupied past the opening credits.Wintermute said:
Huh...I think I'm starting to like where this is going.Guilion said:
If we are to be fair, creating one of the first support groups/helpline for victims of internet harassment and addressing the UN as an authority on the issue should probably qualify as "doing something". As I said in my reply to Zontar, my point was not about accomplishment but about dramaturgy. Jobs and Zuckerberg might be successful but their stories do not make for great drama (Guy has brilliant idea, makes tons of money off brilliant idea), still we get movies with contrived (and, as far as I understand, largely made up) dramatic plots about them. A story about Quinn wouldn't need an extraneous made-up side plot to keep the drama going, because from August 2014 to present it is pretty much non-stop drama.Johnny Novgorod said:
If you were making a film, how would you reflect that? There's no face to face confrontations or anything like that, so it's basically just going to be a character looking at a laptop screen, and the default response from the audience will be 'why not turn the laptop off then?'Gethsemani said:
Hmmmmm...that's a pretty good point. There's a definite difference in terms of production value, though, that usually results in film scenes being of greater quality in my opinion. And in all honesty, I can't imagine what else would really engage me enough to make me sit all the way through a movie about this (good plot and writing would do it, but I don't think that's as likely as nudity being employed as a crutch to try and prop it up). Having said that, though, there are people here tryig to have a serious conversation, and I've been told that I go a bit far sometimes, so I think I'd better show some decency and leave them to it. Tooroo!Rumplehumpkin said:
That's up to the film makers now, isn't it? I can think of a few different ways, most notably all the "real life" harassment Quinn received, like constant phone calls after she was doxxed. One could also play it off on interpersonal drama by having lots of scenes where friends note the deteriorating mental health of Quinn. It is hardly impossible to do.Breakdown said:
What I want to know is, who funds this shit? They are quite obviously not gunning for Oscars nor topping any box offices, pure and simple propaganda by deranged lunatics who think their shit means anything. Really, where do they get the money for it?
