10 Upcoming Video Game Movies That Absolutely Nobody Asked For
6. Farmville
Weve all experienced the global fad that was Farmville. For the majority of us, it was second-degree contact at most, as recipients of an endless stream of spam from Facebook friends begging you to water their virtual corn. Now that relationship-destroying experience is being brought to the big screen! There's a brief moment of hope to hear it's being written by Alec Sokolow and Joel Cohen, who gave us Toy Story. But farming that one successful crop means little when they were also responsible for the abject horrors that were Garfield, Evan Almighty, Daddy Day Camp and a mysterious upcoming project titled Walter The Farting Dog. Suddenly, it makes sense that they would write the film adaptation of something that appeared on TIME's list of mankind's fifty worst inventions. Thankfully, it now seems like the Farmville movie has stalled, but a more worrying project is slowly coming together courtesy of producer Brett Ratner. If Ratner gets his way, Farmville may just become a television series instead which makes sense, considering the core of these kinds of games is long-term addiction. Maybe if you spam your friends with requests to watch the next episode, you get some kind of bonus? This is starting to sound a little bit like a cult...
