I want this movie to be some sort of hardcore prison break kung-fu movie. It's the only thing that makes sense. Have the craziest geometry looking jail, call the sections shit like "Cell Block T" Make it sci-fi, so the jail quadrants can move around on rails or something, and have the plot be about crashing them together to collapse the whole thing.
I'd call it "Lockjaw: The Tetris Shot" and I guaruntee you it would be better than whatever this shit is going to be.

It could just be a social commentary about discrimination. Why does eveyone only like the line block, is it cause its straight? What about the janky zigzag block , why is it so hard for it to fit in. And then we have the square block, do we need to have a two square gap law in public transportation cause 60% of the blocks have now become squares, and do the blocks who dissapear with them only do so because they have a square block fetish or do they really see them for who they are.
And for that matter, where do blocks go after they disappear, is there a block heaven or do they just get reincarnated into the blocks that fall on top.

Aren't they over their heads?
I mean would they still be super comminted to finishing the triliogy if the first film was shit?

This is just getting more and more hilarious. I guess if they're trying to generate interest by the simple WTF factor, they're doing a great job.
Dang it, you beat me to it!Saelune said:
OT: Yeah, not after the first movie it won't. This has all the signs of being a stupid, terrible idea. I would love to be proven wrong, but until further notice, I hope the first movie crashes and burns.
Quick! Get a logline, and a script going and get this to Hollywood, STAT! This idea may have merit yet!EyeReaper said:
This will be interesting, Tetris is the only game my father will play so I'll use this as a bonding exercise.

Remember, whenever you THINK they reached bottom of the barrel of what make a movie out of, remember that during the 90's there was a browser game, Elf Bowling and someone decided to make a movie out of that 10 years later. I am not kidding.Neverhoodian said:
The best Tetris video ever made along with The Tetris God? How the hell are they going to even stretch this into three movies?! It's official, Hollywood is about to be worse than Uwe Boll! I swear to God, they better not even touch Columns!Neverhoodian said:
Oh gosh, lmao.Bobular said:
And there will be a training montage of him doing wax on, wax off with the arcade stick, and mashing the buttons for time, while You're the Best Around is playing. Then showing him struggling with tendonitis and hand cramps.
I could make a movie out of Tetris.
What I would do is cast Simon Pegg and Nick Frost as the people who drop the blocks down.
I imagine they would be working in a block factory.
Since the movie will be co-produced by the Chinese, I would have them answer to a stern Chinese manager and maybe being constantly outperformed by some Chinese duo.
The possibilities for comedy are endless.
I don't have any ideas for a trilogy, aside from some generic sci-fi schlock.

Here's the funny thing: it'd be very easy to make a movie (though probably not three) about Tetris. Think about it: here's the first major piece of software to break through the Iron Curtain, and it's not trying to destroy our infrastructure or inundate us with propaganda (unless it's really, really subtle); it's just a game. It shows that Soviet programmers are just as nerdy and weird as ours, and we're really not so different. Picture the conversation, from 1987 or so:AccursedTheory said:
Seriously, what? This can't be right. How in the hell do you make movies out of Tetris.
I'm going to go watch Wreck-It Ralph now. Maybe it has the answers.
First Programmer: You've got to try this new program!
Second Programmer: Why? What is it?
FP: It's a game. There are blocks falling from the sky, and you've got to make them form lines, so they disappear!
SP: ...Why?
FP: Um... Well... For Mother Russia?
SP: ...Okay.
Not "you dirty commie!" or "where's McCarthy when you need him?". Just "...okay". Evidence that the Cold War calming down wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Plus, all the major players (save one) are still alive, and they all speak English. There's a great movie there. But again, that's about, not of.
