Kane99 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I had no clue that Five Nights at Freddy’s was getting its own movie. I'm honestly not surprised by this, as Five Nights at Freddy’s seems like a fan favorite and I can see it translating fine to a movie. Some scary spooky animatronics, could work. What's funny, is that there was a movie kinda similar to Five Nights at Freddy’s, called Willy's Wonderland, and it's about a guy who is tricked into cleaning up an old amusement center or something, and he is attacked by evil animatronics that are possessed by a group of killers. I don't remember it being any good, but it had some funny moments. Anyway, the Five Nights at Freddy's movie is said to be starring Matthew Lillard and Josh Hutcherson, with Blumhouse being involved. I can't say I'm all that interested, but I'm sure there are some fans here. https://deadline.com/2022/12/five-nights-at-freddys-sets-matthew-lillard-amp-josh-hutcherson-1235201233/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I feel like a game like this would adapt nicely into a movie. There was a similar movie like this not long ago, I forgot the name but it starred Nicholas Cage. I can see Five Nights transitioning really well to the big screen.

Shortie Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I have never played Five Nights at Freddy's myself but I have seen it played by others on live streams in the past and the game looks a lot of fun. I can honestly see how they would be able to make it into a movie and feel it would really work as a movie. With it being such a popular game, I can only imagine how popular the movie will end up being on release. Super looking forward to the release of this as I may check it out.

killamch89 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 It'd make a great horror show - Imagine being chased around by a psychopathic teddy bear. It'd definitely be one of the most interesting movie plots we've seen in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Would be EPIC if the movie is actually done (and has been for a while), and they decide to release it as a surprise on Netflix, Hulu or something! Like how Scott used to release some of the games; they can say someone "hacked" their computers or something and released the movie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think it was that good, honestly kinda forgettable.

I don't get why it's so popular myself. I think it looks like it'd be boring to play. I never understood the popularity for it because of that. It's a game I could never get into. But I think the main reason it was so popular is due to the backstories the game put out and the theories fans had. Which is why I think it'd translate well to a movie.

I can understand where you are coming from. From a viewers stand point I can understand why many would see it as boring as it can feel that way when watching it and not being sure what is going on or the point in the game. I was the same until I started watching more people playing it and they would explain things and that is when I understood it a little more.
