View Full Version : I Want A "saga Of Ryzom" Movie -- Now!!! :)

I am very impressed by this video clip featuring a Ryzom battle vs Kitins:
http://media.pc.gamespy.com/media/573/573170/vids_1.html
I think a "Saga of Ryzom" movie would be very successful. Many movies have been made about lesser computer and online games -- why not a live-action movie on a superior online game, "Saga of Ryzom".
Today's CGI technology would make it possible to portray the Kitins, battles vs. Kitins, and all the incredible creatures and landscapes of Atys.
The theme of the four Homin races uniting against a common enemy would be very inspirational.
Since Nevrax invented the "Saga of Ryzom" universe no fees to authors or author's estates would be necessary (as in Narnia and LOTR). Such a film would open vast merchandising possibilies, and give tremendous publicity to this great game!
At present my imagination is busy imagining who could be the actors, actresses, director, screenplay writer, and special effects creators for a "Saga of Ryzom" film. :)
Let me know what you think of this idea!
Thanks,
Amphiaraus

The only problem with an SoR movie is that it'd have to give away story plot. Story we may not know about yet. Story they may not want to share yet.
Besides, I personally don't think an MMO is a good subject for a movie. It changes too much.

A movie version of story that's already occurred wouldn't give anything away and wouldn't change; it's already happened. Or a movie about the older days before the players got here as backstory.

I don't think its an bad idea, however there is an problem...
who is going to pay the movie, not to mention the advertations so there will actuly someone go to the movie. I mean there arn't _that_ many people that know about ryzom so why whould they go to the movie?
I whould realy like an ryzom movie but I doubt there will come one.

Thereīs always "Kaena-The Prophecy" (http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/kaenatheprophecy/), with a very Ryzom-esque Environment.
Pretty good CGI-Animation. :)

I agree here. It would be awesome to see a movie based off of Ryzom, but if it were to be a rather sucessful video with CGI to make the kitin etc not seem like moving sticks, then it would become rather costly. There is the equipment, cast, crew, locations, rent (offices), food, props, etc. The list is actually quite huge. I've been in film school for two years here in the states, and unless someone wants to settle for an amature film, I don't think its going to happen, if at all. After all, Nexrax was still having somewhat of a financial trouble last I heard, and don't have a few million USD hanging around. :-\ Unless someone is willing to donate it :)

Nah, Just think Episode 1!!! The back story/lore. There is a ton of story to be told, way more than would fill 1 feature length movie.

I'm thinking you just have to convince Steven Spielberg, and prepare the funding for at least 200 more servers :D
Of course, our server would deifintely be the best still.

interesting, but its nothing majorly new. It would work when r2 comes out, means we can make our own maps and set up our own way of "acting" but untill then.. not much can be done

So if it was a live action movie, who gets to play who? Which actress plays Jena? Who plays Tryton? Who plays that little Tryker NPC at the bar in Fairhaven (please don't say Danny Devito)? Come on then guys, give us your dream cast line up for Ryzom: The Movie.

HAHA
The movie would be an orignal script. somthing new (that way i dont have to check up on too much lore to see who was around way back when)
ok here goes (leading cast only)
Jena - Kate Beckinsale (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000295/)
Tryton - Cillian Murphy (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0614165/)
Emperior Dexton - Morgan Freeman (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000151/)
King yrkanis - Marton Csokas (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0190744/)
Governor Wyler - Nicolas Cage (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000115/) (done the way LOTR did the hobbits)
Grand Sage Mabreka - Laurence Fishburne (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000401/)
Wormbreath - Hugh Jackman (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0413168/)

Oh yeah. I can't think of a role either, but that would be cool. XD

That' s a good way to get a lot of people unsub under 60 seconds. The majority would be Trykers no doubt. :p
How about....
Governor Wyler - Johny Depp (he played a pirate, then he can deffinatly play a Tryker; besides he ain' t that tall either)
Emperor Dexton - Sylvestor Stalone or Arnie (fits with the Fyrosian theme of destruction and blowing things up, then ask questions; or forget the last part and head straight off to the bar for merry-making)
King Yrkanis - Willem Dafoe (the way he plays bad guys might suit him better to play Jinovitch though. Well, him or John Malkovich)
Wormbreath - John Goodman, oh please give us John Goodman there!
Not sure where he' ll fit but I have to agree with Kibs: you got to have Richard Dean Anderson in it! :p

February 28th, 2006, 02:12 PM
Jena - Cathrene Zeta Jones *droool* :D
Mabreka-Cho - Chow Yun Fat (Bonsaaaaaaiii :D)
Emperor Dexton - I agree with Morgan Freeman (thumbsup)
Yrkanis - Orlando Bloom (not much of a change from Legolas, eh :D)
Stil Wyler - Toby Maquire (Hey, he looks young enough)
Elias Tryton - Ralph Finnes (damn heīs so distiguished)
