I just hope it doesn't completely suck. Like basically every movie based on a game ever. I really don't believe they will hire people who understand how to make it both a tribute to the game and a good movie on its own.

I agree with Cameron. If they make an Assassin's Creed movie, they better not butcher the basic plot of the entire franchise. Then again, if the film company itself has been put together by Ubisoft, chances are good that they will stay true to the game. Either way, if they make a movie, I would go see it. I wouldn't be a true Assassin's Creed fan if I didn't, in my opinion. :)

Please be better than the Prince of Persia movie.....

I say they make a tie in for the games, like a new story, just not try to encompass the entire series... just something small. I think anyone who tries to make a movie over the entire series or just a rehash from what the games told us will end up being bad (way too much stuff in the games to cover)

Jaoquin Phoenix should play Desmond/Altair/Ezio.

it will be terrible...I don't see the need for video game movies. they were made into video games for a reason, so just leave em!

Well, at least we'll still have an awesome version of Assassin's Creed when we play the games....

Sometimes miracles happen so maybe this will turn out good.

Normally I'm against video game movies. But I feel that this one may have potential. They just need to tread very carefully. What I would like to see is a story that is related to the games. Kinda one that runs alongside them but isn't the same story. Maybe a return to the crusades that follows events parallel to those of the first game.

Please no live-action films. We've seen video games fall due to this. If they want to make a superb video game adaptation film, then it should be done in CGI. Video games were created with it, and in most cases live-action hinders the creativity and sheer spectacle that the game holds.

It would be interesting to see the birth of Christianity and Roman struggle to keep it at bay and assassins' role in all that. So 4th century? It should also be entirely set in the past because the animus would look ridicolous in a movie.

Sure, sure.  Because it's one of the few franchises that is actually conducive to being a movie.

Wait, in that case the game is its own movie.

How can you put even 1 of these 20 plus hours games into a two hour movie. That is why the movies suck and TV is getting better. TV can take the time and build a character and a plot a la 24, breaking bad, game of thrones....etc. I would love to see a network take a chance on something like this. preferabally HBO. But I know that will not happen. Instead we will get a PG kidsy 3d crap movie.

As long as Ubisoft handles most of the creative elements I am cautiously optimistic. Assassin's Creed lineage was pretty good despite small budget, so I am hopeful.

maybe for this assassins creed movie, it would be about the main character as SUBJECT 16; is the character writing on the walls n in the animus before >> ; not ezio/altair/desmond. ?? what yall think ?

Just remember, everybody, that unlike past "games turned movies", this one will be handled by Ubisoft itself with some outside help. Meaning, the company will probably keep the story familiar and relative to the game, along with a good plot.

As long as it is like Lineage it should be good

I liked the Lineage movie with Etzio's father, maybe a sort of prequel for Desmond and Altair could work. Or they could use the movie to tell the story of a completely different assassin in a new time period we didn't get to see in any of the games, I'd be for that too.

I guess with it's good story Assassins creed stands a chance. I'm not going to see it though, I'm to scared it will kill my love for the franchise

I think Assassins creed is a really cool universe to do a movie with, with cool characters, deep story and great action with an underused time-period (in combination with the futuristic style)

in concept it sounds like a really cool movie, but we all know how videogame movies go...
