But remember, although many liked that film despite its slightness, it was mostly met with mixed reviews (and mountains of cash). ![]() Despite the internet’s perception of them, both Arad and Connolly have made hits, which is likely what drew Nintendo and Miyamoto to them in the same way they were drawn to Minions masters Illumination to bring Super Mario Bros. Lastly, there’s director Wes Ball, which might actually be the most confusing part of the equation. No one can say if that film would’ve been any good in the alternate reality where it ended up on screens, but as it stands the writer is 0-for-3 on the “movies that make sense” spectrum.

So, what’s the issue?īut giving the producer the benefit of the doubt, there’s even more room for pause with the film’s writer, Derek Connolly. But alas, it seems the two Japanese-based companies have made up and, to their credit, Sony has been leading the charge into entertainment with PlayStation Productions producing work both lauded ( The Last of Us) and lukewarm ( Uncharted, Gran Turismo). The irony of this shouldn’t be lost, as Nintendo’s infamous backstabbing of Sony in the Nineties directly led to the launch of the PlayStation, dethroning the Big N in Machiavellian fashion for a decade until the Wii waggled their way back into relevance. movie, Nintendo seems game to begin making fantasies a reality on the big screen, yet it appears – in true Hollywood fashion – they’ve learned the wrong lessons.Īs reported by Deadline, and confirmed in an official Nintendo press release, the film will be co-financed and distributed by Sony Pictures.

You have a Community Card, which lets you see requests you’ve come across. What’s also lovely about Toem is how it handles these quests and assignments. And in some cases, you might need to visit multiple locations and acquire an array of shots to complete a larger goal.
