    Really, Hollywood? Really?

    Do you honestly hate us that much? Are you so out of ideas that you ignore the track record for other video game movies? And then you decide to go with a game that, while popular, has no effective story at all?

    What the hell?

    Sony Pictures to make an Angry Birds movie in 2016.

    What the...how the...

    How the *crap* are they going to build a whole full-length movie out of a game where you throw birds at pigs? What's next? Plants vs. Zombies: The Musical?

      The youtube shorts "Angry Birds Toons" are actually pretty entertaining to my kids.

        I find those shorts to be very funny. If the movie is along the same line it should be pretty good. Unfortunately, I know all too well how Hollywood can totally mess up things.

            Oregon Trail, the movie?
            or has that been done already? Did anyone die of dysentery?

              I have heard that a studio was making "Monopoly: the Movie," but after the movie "Battleship" tanked in the box office, I believe "Monopoly" will be stuck in development hell. I sincerely hope I'm right.

                They already did Battleship (which I have only seen a few minutes of, and which I'm not sure I want to invest the time in to finish watching). So no, this doesn't surprise me.

                      The Tetris one has been done as well, it's out there.

                      Meanwhile, I prefer something with more meat to it. Calvin & Hobbes, perhaps?

                          I'd love to see a Calvin & Hobbes movie.

                            Dude, just because there's going to be an Angry Birds movie....wait for it.... doesn't mean you have to watch it.

                              I'm not enjoying this trend over the last few years of either making movies of every comic/video game out there, or making ones out of old tv series, or doing remakes of classic films that need to be left the hell alone. Footloose, Carrie, Fame, and About Last Night come to mind. The originals are great, don't mess with them.
