JosephManderley Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I watched this Blur video earlier, and I loved the platform game idea they used - and the boss fights, it reminded me of early 90s gaming! It got me thinking - what are some other cool examples of Movies, Music videos etc. That have taken inspiration from gaming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Biting Elbows was great. Hardcover Henry is not a great movie but it's something that can be admired for trying something different. I would love to see an actual good thought out story with that first person perspective for a movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a great director could do something with it... but to me first person is usually terrible as a movie going experience. The only good uses I can think of that use it are from Terminator and Predator. Both those movies only use first person for a few seconds to show the unique vision of the antagonist.

I got to thinking more about my comment after I put it down and it would be very challenging. I don't think it would be a bad perspective but I think only a few directors / story tellers could possibly achieve something good for an audience with it to get a full picture of what is going on. I look above at that 5 min video and it did so much better than Hardcore Henry, to me for my enjoyment, because it didn't have to tell a whole narrative for 90s mins.
